Insert weiner joke here.  Looks like gas prices are effecting the folks at Oscar Mayer, who have recently downsized from their much larger weinermobile and are now cruising around in a Mini Cooper based weiner wagon.  Ripped off from CarScoop.

This car screams hotness.  Of course, I also have a wagon fetish.  Subaru will be selling 402 of these beautiful cars.  Unfortunately, not in the US.  They will come in sedan and wagon (touring) variant.  Features 282hp, six speed manual tranny, subtle STI body work, six pot front and two pot rear Brembo brakes, gorgeous 18″ BBS wheels.  Check out CarScoop for more pictures.

What you are looking at is the most bad ass version of the Veyron.  The Bugatti Veyron Sang Noir.  It’s apparently an an homage to the Bugatti Atlantique 57.  Only four of these were made, this one was spotted in Santa Monica.  Sang Noir, translates to “black blood.”  What is so special about this car, minus the fact that it is blacked out?  Well, I don’t know.  Our friends at autogespot, have a few more pictures on their site.

So last time I posted pictures of the E92 M3 Individual ordered coupe in Dakar Yellow and right now on eBay Motors you have the chance of owning 1 of the 2 Imola Yellow Audi RS6 that currently are in the United States. This color was never offered for the RS6 and once again it cost the original owner a couple thousand dollars to paint to spec. Personally I’ve always been a fan of anything Imola Yellow (whether it may be the 2003 VW GTI 20th Anniversary Edition, Audi S4/RS4, or even the Audi TT) and this RS6 simply looks stunning and it doesn’t get rarer than that.

Not much to say about this BMW Individual Dakar Yellow E92 M3 other than I think it looks damn good in yellow. Found this Individual ordered car posted on M3post.com and some 19″ BBS LM/LM-R would finish it off beautifully. I have always been a fan of BMW’s Dakar Yellow and this is just another example why.

So last month we saw the first modified Jaguar XF, done by the California dealer Galpin, and its gaudy two tone paint scheme. To be honest I wasn’t too impressed. But leave it to the Germans to produce this stunning tuning package for the Jaguar XF.

German tuner Arden, which specializes in Jaguars and Range Rovers, has released this teaser picture with no other details. The “AJ21 XF” package as it’s called includes a new front bumper, a new mesh grille, custom ‘leaping-cat’ hood ornament, LED daytime running lights, aero side mirrors, and a pair of sporty side sills. Most importantly gone are the stock wheels, which reminded me of VW Hufeisen wheel found on the MKV GTI.

Arden hasn’t announced any details on the mechanical updates, but be patient as the package is set to go on sale this June.
