Nissan will introduce the new system in production vehicles starting early in fiscal 2010. Full story...

2009 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S - Porsche Luxury Sport Coupe Review - Automobile Magazine
We celebrate the experience of driving, and driving a 911 is all about the experience.

I know this isn't the first thing I should be commenting on after my first-ever drive in a Porsche 911, but, wow, what a gorgeous interior. The no-nonsense, leather-swathed cabin says "expensive and fast" better than our Audi R8, with all of its carbon fiber trim, or our Nissan GT-R, with its multiple electronic display screens.

AMG Driving Academy: The Nurburgring

AMG Driving Academy: The Nurburgring
AMG Driving Academy at Nurburgring - Mercedes Benz SL65 AMG - Automobile Magazine
We came to conquer the Green Hell - a racetrack so dangerous, only precious few races are run there.

The AMG Driving Academy at the Nürburgring is a trifecta of automotive scholarly brilliance: there are cars and then there are AMGs; there are tracks and then there's the Nürburgring, and there are schools, and then there's the AMG Driving Academy. But I'm not yet aware of this as my shuttle picks me up from the Frankfurt airport. As we get closer to the famed 'Ring, Porsche after tuned Porsche drives by in the other direction, a gaggle of Nissan Skylines buzz past us, wastegates whistling. An old bi-plane flies by, doing loop-de-loops in the sky above us into the sunset. I smile as I realize that I'm at Ground Zero in the promised land of engine-powered mayhem.
