1987 Porsche 959

In the mid-1980s, Porsche released a model that looked like it had jetted in from the future. The twin-turbocharged 959 was considered an astonishing achievement back in 1986, regarded as the most technologically advanced road-going sportscar ever created. It was the the pinnacle of production-car performance, and was designed to eliminate aerodynamic lift, with an impressive bodywork that includes flared fenders, covered headlights, a basket-handle rear wing, and intake vents on each flank. Powered by a 2,849cc flat-six that features sequential twin turbochargers, water-cooled cylinder heads, and quad overhead camshafts, and with a 0-100km/h time of just 3.7sec, this classic Porsche supercar still puts many modern supercars in the shade. You can now get your hands on this rare specimen finished in graphite metallic over dark grey metallic leather, over at Bring a Trailer.

Rivian R1S Electric SUV

After capturing our attention with their spectacular R1T Electric Truck, Michigan-based Rivian have blown our mind once again with their seven-seat electric SUV - the R1S. Clearly picking up design cues off a Range Rover, the all-electric family SUV is built on the same platform as the pickup, and other than its shape, the R1S mostly matches the R1T pickup truck blow for blow. Like the R1T, Rivian plans to offer the R1S with either a 136 kWh or 180 kWh battery pack ...
