When getting your ride all chromed out was deemed insane, people thought why not matte paint job too? Since then, chrome or even gold-plating car is not a thing that wows anymore (well, at least not as much as before). It was the matte paint or wrap which was all the rage. Just when you thought car paint job couldn’t get any wilder, this Velvet-wrapped Maserati Ghibli Luxury Sedan came along. Yes. You heard that right. Velvet. You know? That material that’s soft to touch and seems to change color when you rub it in a particular direction? Yup, that kind velvet.

Scaldarsi Motors’ $1.5 Million Emperor I Is The Holy Grail Of Luxury Rides
Forget about the run-of-the-mill Mercedes-Maybach S600. Wait. On a second thought, forget about Rolls-Royce rides too, because if you looking at the ultimate in luxury rides, new kid on the luxury car customisation, Canada-based Scaldarsi Motors, has just the right ride for you: the Emperor I.

Volvo Adds Sporty Touches To S90 And V90 With R-Design Models
Volvo is not exactly synonymous with performance rides. Safety, for sure, but certainly, not in the performance department. Though they are by no means slouch in that aspect. However, the Swede automaker sure knows a thing or two about sporty looks, which is what its R-Design models are about. Today, another two rides join the R-Design lineup and they are none other than the S90 sedan and V90 estate aka station wagon.

Daimler Foray into the Ultra Luxurious Car Market with the New Mercedes-Maybach S-Class
Some brands are just not retention worthy. If history is any indication, among those brands is Maybach. With a history dating as far back as 1909 (which would make it over a century old if it had continued), the marque had seen turbulent time and though revived in 2002, it fell victim to poor sale which lead to Daimler pulling the plug in 2011 and ceasing its existence by 2013. Fast forward to November 2014, in a somewhere odd strategic move, auto giant Daimler, who probably felt the need to dabble in the ultra luxury automobile segment, announced that it will revive the defunct brand as Mercedes-Maybach and so they did.The new born under this new marquee, the 2015 Mercedes-Maybach S600 Luxury Sedan, was recently unveiled at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show, which to be honest, there is nothing exceedingly revolutionary in terms of design.

Here’s the 2015 Chrysler 300. It Looks the Same, But Not Quite the Same
So, here it is, the much anticipated sedan the Pentastar brand has to offer: the Chrysler 300. And if you adore the look of the second-gen 300, then you will probably won’t be disappointed with this one. Though the two generations look pretty alike, they does feel a little different, thanks to the 30 percent larger mesh front grille and generally speaking, sleeker and more sculptured front end that has less things happening, which is spells awesome in our books. The new iteration also gets redesigned front and LED rear lights, new finishes and new wheel designs, but those are pretty much where the difference ends as far as exterior is concerned.

after teasing the world with an image or two, Nissan’s luxury arm Infiniti has finally put out more images and details on the Q80 luxury sedan which marks Infiniti’s first foray into the premium sedan category. aesthetically, the Q80 looks like something you would see in sci-fi flicks, thanks in part to the shimmering silver paintwork, but yet so ‘doable’ in today’s context. in fact, Q80’s bold design is also a hint of the future design language for the luxury marque. it comes in a four-door fastback form and stretches 5,060mm or 199.2 inches long and 2,010mm or 79.1 inches wide. under the hood, it boast a 550 horsepower “downsized” twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6 and hybrid electric powertrain with an undisclosed output – a combination that Infiniti claims a fuel efficiency in the region of 42.8 mpg (5.5L per 100km) and with CO2 emissions of around 129g/km.
