Fans of England's most famous sports car builder have something for which to cheer today, as Aston Martin has revealed two new images of its upcoming Lagonda performance sedan. The luxurious new Aston will be built in "strictly limited series production," with customers arriving by invitation only, and likely only from Middle East regions. Technical details and pricing (if you have to ask...) are still a ways off.



Former Ford engineer investigated by FBI (http://www.autoblog.com/2014/07/25/fbi-investigating-fired-ford-engineer-espionage-report/)http://o.aolcdn.com/dims-shared/dims3/GLOB/crop/628x417+0+0/resize/250x166!/format/jpg/quality/85/http://o.aolcdn.com/hss/storage/midas/600fea935bef89173037580c34151ca6/200483099/1e82c52693764b16a2c6ad22e616e601.jpeg (http://www.autoblog.com/2014/07/25/fbi-investigating-fired-ford-engineer-espionage-report/)

Ford has been working with the FBI to investigate espionage charges leveled at a recently terminated engineer at the company. In what Ford is calling "a joint investigation" the FBI had warrants to seize listening devices that were allegedly employed by the terminated engineer. For her part, the employee maintains that she has done no wrong, and that any and all listening devices were used without malicious intent.





Mercedes details turbo 4.0L V8 for AMG GT (http://www.autoblog.com/2014/07/25/mercedes-4l-twin-turbo-v8-amg-gt-official/)http://o.aolcdn.com/dims-shared/dims3/GLOB/crop/628x417+0+0/resize/250x166!/format/jpg/quality/85/http://o.aolcdn.com/hss/storage/midas/188a4483ec85b999bc43f5dce870d2/200483146/mercedes-amg-m178-04.JPG (http://www.autoblog.com/2014/07/25/mercedes-4l-twin-turbo-v8-amg-gt-official/)

The days of "no replacement for displacement" continue to fade from memory, as companies like Mercedes-Benz continue to build new, small, turbocharged powerhouses like this 4.0-liter V8. Set to make its home in the upcoming AMG GT sports car, the Mercedes mill is said to produce a robust 510 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque, thanks to twin turbochargers and a 7,200-rpm redline. We can almost hear it now...
