2013 Audi TT to Get S-line Competition Package—The S and RS Look for Less
The Audi TT already is available in a multitude of flavors—TT RS, TTS, and the regular, plain-old TT. If you’re in the market for the, shall we say, most mundane of the three, but you don’t want to sacrifice the aggressive looks of the RS and S models, you’re in luck. Audi has announced the S-line [...]
Report: Police confiscating motorists' phones in Cape Town [w/poll]
Filed under: Etc., Government/Legal, Safety
The phrase "law enforcement" - and the very idea of laws themselves - is entirely dependent on that second word, "enforcement." Without it, you don't have laws, you have a modern art installation consisting of reams of paper decorated with lines that are as useless as they are squiggly. But how enforcement is handled is just as important as the concept itself, and when it comes to laws against cell phone usage while driving, Cape Town, South Africa has gone further than any other country we've heard of.
Instead of just issuing a fine, when drivers are caught talking on their phones the authorities have begun confiscating phones for 24 hours - unless a driver is busted on Friday, in which case, the confiscation lasts until the following Monday. Using your actual cell phone handset and not a hands-free kit while driving is against the law in South Africa. It's been that way for a while, but it was found that a 500-rand ($60 U.S.) fine wasn't curbing the distracted driving habit. The next step? Take the phone away and see if that changes motorists' behavior.
In this case, Cape Town police lock the offender's phone inside a case, on the spot, and the case is later placed inside a walk-in vault at one of the traffic departments. Drivers are allowed to remove SIM and memory cards before the phone is handed over, and frankly, phones are so inexpensive in South Africa that we could - sadly - see this leading to some folks buying a new phone instead of retrieving their handset from the police. Nevertheless, SA is determined to see it through in the hopes that drivers will obey the law instead of their own communication compulsions.
What do you think, is this an appropriate step by Cape Town's police, or is it taking things too far? Have your say by voting in our poll below and feel free to leave your thoughts in Comments.

Report: House Dems call on Chrysler to deal with Wrangler "Death Wobble" [w/video]
Filed under: SUV, Safety, Videos, Chrysler, Jeep, Off-Road
If the adjective "death" was applied to any item, incident or location that had been involved in a single fatality, then we'd all be imbibing death drinks while driving death cars on death roads from our death jobs to our death homes to be with our death spouses, death kids and death pets. Yet when it comes to the wobble that's been reported to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration by hundreds Jeep Wrangler owners, the report of one "fatality related to the suspected condition" has earned it the moniker "Death Wobble" on the television news.
In response to the newscast in question, Congressional representatives Anna G Eshoo and Henry A. Waxman sent a lengthy list of questions to NHTSA in order to find out more about the issue and requested an investigation. NHTSA declined to investigate, saying that the issue "does not result in a loss of control."
So now, according to a report in The Detroit News, Eshoo and Waxman have gone directly to Chrysler seeking "an outreach campaign to its customers, such as a Customer Satisfaction Campaign, to notify Jeep owners of the risk of the 'wobble' condition ... and the possible methods for repairing and preventing the problem." Chrysler has said that the Wrangler has an excellent safety record and reiterated its position that "most reported incidents - in all manufacturer vehicles equipped with or without a solid axle - are often linked to poorly installed or maintained after-market equipment, such as lifters, oversized tires, etc."
No one denies that a wobbling event has occurred for some Wrangler drivers when they hit something like a pothole at speeds beyond 45 mph, and the situation could probably be addressed by something better than a corporate statement that owner modifications or carelessness have caused it. While Chrysler also states that any vehicle with a solid front axle is prone to such wobbling, Automotive News' Larry Vellequette wrote a well reasoned piece that goes into detail about how the Wrangler has been caught in a bit of a bind: the same steering and front axle setup that make the Wrangler great for off-roading can lead to such wobbling on-road at speed, and the Wrangler's increasing popularity with the average driver unfamiliar with those kinds of compromises has led to everyone getting the short end of the stick.
It's unclear what will happen to resolve it, but it's clear that something will have to happen. Scroll down for the original newscast as well as videos showing some owners experiencing the wobble in question.

Official: Classic Recreations '67 GT500CR Convertible has 780 HP, style to match
Filed under: Classics, Convertible, Performance, Etc., Ford
There is only one original 1967 Shelby GT500 Convertible. Built as a prototype for Carroll Shelby himself, the machine rocked a potent dual-quad 428 under the hood, and, like all early Ford prototypes, was slated for destruction after a certain period of time. However, the car was stolen and missing long enough to upset the natural order of things. As such, the machine escaped the jaws of the crusher and lived on to find a home in a museum in Volo, Illinois. Not surprisingly, the convertible is worth a heavy stack of cash.
If you'd like to slide into a GT500 Convertible of your very own, you need not fret. Classic Recreations has worked up a version of the mythical Mustang. Available with either a fuel-injected 427 good for 545 horsepower or a supercharged variant with 780 ponies kicking to the rear wheels, the modern interpretation blends the sexy lines of the original with modern powertrain technology.
Power steering, modern suspension components and a Tremec five-speed manual gearbox are all standard hardware, as are the killer 17-inch wheels seen above. Each model comes with a power soft top, as well. Check out the full press release below for a little more information or head to the Classic Recreations site.

Video: Bentley releases first rolling footage and new images of EXP 9 F Concept
Filed under: Concept Cars, SUV, Videos, Bentley, Design/Style, Luxury
Bentley has now paraded its EXP 9 F concept in front of crowds at the Geneva Motor Show where it debuted, the Beijing Motor Show, and most recently at last weekend's Goodwood Festival of Speed in the UK. Still claiming that the concept SUV is "part of a systematic and comprehensive process of gauging customer and public reaction to the idea of a Bentley SUV," yet nevertheless getting very specific about what would power such an SUV and how many they would hope to sell, the English automaker is clearly marching this concept down a path towards production.
In the wake of its latest debut to the English country folk, Bentley has released a new set of EXP 9 F images, as well as the first video of it in motion. Scroll down and hit play to see what you'd look like idling through the forest in your own Bentley sport ute.
Why release new images and a video now? It may have something to do with a report by Autocar that claims Bentley pitched the idea of developing the EXP 9 F for production to the brass at parent company Volkswagen last week. Autocar claims the concept attracted enough interest from potential buyers to play a part in the Volkswagen Group's decision, noting that the vehicle's controversial front and rear styling treatments would have to change (echoing sentiments we've heard before). The interior, however, has reportedly been so well received that it likely won't change much at all.

Vincent and Rhyne Master Mosport
Mosport International Raceway north of Bowmanville, Ontario Canada hosted eighteen members of the Red Sox Racing League in week eight of their 2012 Season Two schedule. With a layout almost two miles shorter than the one drivers faced in Spa Francorchamps last week, Mosport was sure to induce much more passing between the lightweight Class A HPD prototypes and the Class B GT Corvettes. Ten corners crammed into a 2.45 mile circuit meant drivers would have to be on their best behavior to finish the race. Spectators arrived early for the “Strawberry Fields Festival at Mosport 30″ and were rewarded with plenty of pre-race excitement as they watched numerous RSR veterans bungle Clayton Corner, demonstrating why Mosport requires 100% concentration. Constant elevation changes that seemed to want to take drivers [...]

Reigning world champion Sebastian Vettel is the bookmakers' choice for victory in this weekend's British Grand Prix.

Lorenzo: ‘No grudge’ with Bautista
Jorge Lorenzo has accepted Alvaro Bautista's apology for causing the first corner crash in the Dutch TT, admitting his initial comments were exaggerated in the heat of the moment. The Yamaha rider was taken out by Bautista when the latter braked too late and lost the front of his Gresini Honda, sliding into the Spaniard in a move Lorenzo deemed "a complete disaster" immediately after the race. Lorenzo labelled Bautista's subsequent penalty - which will force him to start from the back of the grid at this weekend's German Grand Prix - as inadequate.

Both riders were forced to retire, with Lorenzo's title rival Casey Stoner then wiping out the Spaniard's pre-race 25-point championship lead by taking victory

As their name suggests, these tubular oil-filled devices damp (slow down) wheel and body motion, resulting in a comfortable ride, predictable steering response, and agile maneuverability. A [...]
