Bizzarrini Giotto, Chevrolet Corvette Z06 GT3.R: top photo of the week.

Resurgent Italian sports car manufacturer Bizzarrini is working on a new V-12 supercar. Called "Giotto," after Bizzarrini founder Giotto Bizzarrini, it is being designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro.

Chevrolet is jumping into the customer racing game with a new GT3-spec customer racing car based on the C8 Corvette Z06. The new racer, unveiled this week, will be ready for the 2024 motorsports season.

Bugatti's one-off Chiron Profillet sold at an auction in Paris this week for twice the pre-auction estimate. The final bid, including the buyer's premium, exceeded $10 million, making it the highest price ever paid for a new car sold at auction.

One of the cars we test drove this week was a 2023 Porsche 911 Dakar. Bottom line, if you have the funds, this is a super value package that bears little resemblance to any other car on the market today.

Mazda unveiled the 2024 CX-90 this week. This three-row mid-size SUV uses Mazda's newly developed rear-wheel drive platform and is available with an available plug-in hybrid powertrain.

The 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6, a sleek electric sedan with strong Porsche and Mercedes-Benz vibes, will finally go on sale this spring. This week, the EPA released range estimates that beat the Tesla Model 3's numbers.

An original 1966 Shelby 427 Cobra is for sale. The car was once owned by current Ford CEO Jim Farley, who regularly raced it in classic car events.

And finally, Houston, Texas-based PaxPower unveiled a modified Chevrolet Silverado called the Jackal. This modification, available for the related GMC Sierra, upgrades the body and suspension and adds a power upgrade on top if the customer desires.
