Aston Martin DB9

When It Hits: While the release date is not clear, these photos are of the 2012 model-year prototype.

What Priddy Says: The front carries a new lower fascia and an aggressive hood; the lower fascia in the back has been reworked; and a new air diffuser was added. Priddy also speculates that the interior will be upgraded and the powertrain will receive minor tweaks. 

Buick Regal Wagon

When It Hits: Look for the Regal Wagon to debut near the end of this year either as a 2011 or 2012 model.

What Priddy Says: With the success of Ford’s wagon-esque Flex and Cadillac’s CTS Sport Wagon soon due to market, Buick is jumping in to the revival with this Regal wagon variant.

Lotus Exige

When It Hits: The release date for the next Exige is not yet known.

What Priddy Says: This not-quite-right-looking Lotus Exige is powered by the 3.5L V6 right out of the Evora. This crafty camouflage is hiding the next Exige, but nothing was able to hide the evidence of the 3.5L V6 from Priddy’s spies.

Ford F-150 Raptor

When It Hits: The 2011 Raptor should hit dealerships later this year.

What Priddy Says: In these latest shots of the Ford F-150 Raptor SuperCrew, we get less camo and a look at the truck’s showroom-ready silver, a new color added for the Raptor lineup.
