It looks like plans for an Abarth version of the 500C for 2010 are confrmed
But a successful model is always going to spawn whatever variants a car maker can viably muster, so our report in July that we will see an Abarth version of the 500C in Spring 2010 – probably at the Geneva Motor Show – now seem to have been confirmed as ‘jokeforblog’ has published pictures of what seems to be a road-ready Abarth Convertible at Abarth’s facility. Now that will be a bunch of fun – and just in time for next Summer. Spy shot of the Abarth 500 Cabriolet
It also now seems likely that Fiat are pushing ahead with a new Abarth version of the Punto.

Lexus has changed the color of its LF-LC for the 2012 Australian motor show in Sydney. We first saw the LF-LC in January at the 2012 Detroit auto show where it appeared in deep metallic red. To spice it up for the Australian show, Lexus has sprayed the exterior Opal Blue, inspired by the base color found in the naturally occurring semi-precious opal stone found in the Australian outback.

Time will tell whether the IPL brand will carry the gravitas of Mercedes-Benz AMG or BMW M. But for now, it spells 18 hp and a host of sporty cosmetics. Infiniti is launching a range of athletic gear for its luxury cars, called Infiniti Performance Line.
