Our September issue has something for just about every gearhead’s appetite. Our feature story takes a look at this past summer’s racing world, from a small Ontario track to the big time 24-hour race at Le Mans in France.
 
Our slate of test drives is overflowing too: we wring out Ford’s ultimate sleeper reborn, the Taurus SHO and take a look at two Canadian-built Chevrolet: the new Camaro and the Equinox SUV. We also take the revised Mazda MX-5 and the ‘base’ but still beautiful Porsche Cayman for spin. There’s also a special report on what’s hot in the ATV industry today.

NEW BENTLEY MULSANNE MAKES WORLD DEBUT AT PEBBLE BEACH CONCOURS D’ELEGANCE, CALIFORNIA

Monday, August 17th 2009, Bentley Motors unveiled the Mulsanne, the company’s all-new flagship grand tourer, at the prestigious Pebble Beach Concours D’Elegance in Monterey, California. The Mulsanne is inspired by the company founder W.O. Bentley’s crowning achievement in 1930, the 8-litre.  And it was W.O.’s own sensitively conserved company car that shared the podium with the new Mulsanne in Pebble Beach. This early motoring masterpiece represented the last big Bentley that was designed, engineered and built from the ground up by Bentley engineers - until now. Nearly 80 years later, while paying respect to this illustrious past, the new Mulsanne is a thoroughly modern statement of luxury driving and grand touring. Conceived, styled and engineered entirely at Bentley’s headquarters in Crewe, England, the Mulsanne, with its completely new and unique platform, goes into production next year in a new state-of-the-art manufacturing facility within the Crewe factory.
