An interesting week with Hyundai teaming up with GM to make, move and research stuff, a tasty 968 Sport for sale in Queensland, a new Lotus concept car, some awesome new stickers on Etsy and a bonkers farewell to the Hemi V8.
Note: for some reason not all the links are getting previews. No idea why.
GM and Hyundai struck a deal to work together on pretty much everything but including new vehicles and technology. This is pretty wild when you think about it. Hyundai has been marching steadily forward for the last few decades while GM has shrunk in the last ten years, retreating from Europe and Asia and – technically – right-hand drive (although the Corvette is produced with the wheel on the correct side)

This 1994 Porsche 968 Sport is on Collecting Cars and I really like what I see. I've always liked the 924/944/968 as the kind of Porsche you can own and nobody knows you've got a Porsche.
Of course, if you ask me it's a 968 CS or GTFO but if I had the readies for this little silver gem, I'd be there because a CS is wildly expensive.

Lotus has released its Theory 1 electric supercar concept. It's a carbon fibre machine with whacky doors and, critically, no Type 1XX designation, so it really is a concept car. Car companies don't really make concept cars as often as they used to, so it's nice to see one actually made rather than fired into Gran Turismo as a download.

Speaking of Gran Turismo, someone on Etsy has come up with drivetrain stickers for the real world. Available in FWD, AWD and RWD, they look amazing. The Etsy page says they're for JDM cars, but we'd never suggest just those (thanks to Mike Stevens for this spot)
Dodge unveiled the latest in a long line of V8-powered special editions, this time the Durango SRT Hellcat Hammerhead. For those of you not across Dodge's model line, the Durango is a seven-seat SUV. It's completely mad because the Hellcat is a supercharged Hemi V8 with 710 horsepower.

And that's it for Tuesday because a lot of stuff is happening.
