LAST RACE OF THE F1 SEASON: Brazilian Grand Prix

Often the scene of many thrilling title deciders, the season-ending Brazil Grand Prix promises to be a momentous climax for a different reason. Sebastian Vettel, already crowned the 2013 world champion, is aiming to equal two milestones at the iconic Interlagaos – Michael Schumacher’s 13 victories in a single season from 2004 and Alberto Ascari’s nine straight grand prix wins recorded 60 years ago. Let’s see if Interlagos has a surprise up its sleeve.

Available on 5, 6 or 7 Series automobiles, the ceramic package beautifies the cabin with a handful of glossy black ceramic pieces – the fine bezel around the crown of the iDrive controller, for instance, or the face of the transmission selector.

Porsche Premieres Macan

Tennis player/brand ambassador Maria Sharapova attends the global introduction of the 2015 Porsche Macan at the L.A. Autoshow at Los Angeles Convention Center. Macan is an entry-level SUV that hopes to beat out rivals like Mercedes’ GLK and BMW’s X3. It’s very Porsche, sharing the side angles of a 911 and the height of a Cayenne—its front end is also very similar to its bigger brother—while repping even the Boxster a bit in the styling of its air intakes and side profile.

SUBARU’S BET

As everybody knew before the official press launch at the L.A. Auto Show, Subaru unveiled a redesigned WRX and a brand new Legacy Concept. Celebrating 25 years of Legacy, the new Concept was easily the more handsome of the two and drew more attention. The car has a very sturdy look to it. It looks firm, but it’s a bit bloated to accentuate certain curvatures. The enormous hex grille, the layered, piercing headlamps, the built in spoilerish rear lid all looks fantastic, but there’s still one thought that’s on everybody’s mind. With the WRX sitting right next to it, they’re forced to be skeptical, after seeing what the original WRX Concept was widdled down to. Everybody’s afraid the exact same thing is going to happen.
