The iconic Mazda Cosmo Sport 110S sports car first hit the market in Japan on May 30, 1967, which means the company’s famous rotary engine turned 50 this week. Learn more about it by clicking on the link. 

On the final weekend of May, the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este in Italy featured the official unveiling of the BMW 8 Series Concept. What a looker! We have several pictures and a video you don’t want to miss.
