This winter, the Louwman Museum is transforming its Great Hall into an arena, providing a stage for the iconic ‘bulls’ of Lamborghini. These ‘bulls’ form an impressive timeline of one of the most illustrious sports car brands of the last few decades—from the first GT of 1964 to the latest Revuelto, and from the Huracán Super Trofeo EVO to the Essenza SCV12. This exclusive exhibition will run from November 27, 2026, to January 3, 2027.

’Beyond the Wrap: The Art of Itasha’ is the latest exhibition of the San Diego Automotive Museum, celebrating the cars that fans turn into rolling tributes to their favorite anime, manga and video games.

On display: 2005 Mazda RX-8 · Touhou Project; 2015 Subaru Impreza · Mobile Suit Gundam 00; 2018 Toyota Camry SE · Kaguya-sama: Love Is War.

Meet Tampa Bay Automobile Museum’s latest exhibit, a 1929 Durant Six “66” Coupe. Built by William “Billy” Durant, the man who founded General Motors and co-founded Chevrolet, this beautiful piece of automotive history tells the story of a man who wasn’t afraid to start over. After losing control of GM, Durant launched his own car company and continued building automobiles under his own name. Now you can see this rare vehicle up close at the Tampa Bay Automobile Museum in Pinellas Park, Florida.

In mid-October, Owls Head Transportation Museum (OHTM) received a generous donation of steam engines from Ray Minchak. OHTM looks forward to sharing them with visitors. The museum’s “steam team” is already looking ahead to the next step: building a display wagon using Model T parts to mount the steam equipment. The goal is to create a movable setup that can be rolled out of the Energy Room during events and fired up for visitors to see. When displayed inside the Energy Room, the engines can also run on compressed air.

Just arrived at the National Automobile Museum of Tasmania (NAMT) – 2008 Audi R8. The idea of the Audi R8 was first introduced to the world in 2003, as the ‘LeMans Quattro’ concept car. The R8 development program began a year later, with the car officially being revealed at the Paris Motor Show in 2006. The Audi R8 was initially equipped with an all-aluminium 4.2 litre V8, developing 414 hp. It was essentially the same engine as used in the Audi RS4 of the period, but with a dry sump lubrication system. The car utilises the Audi Quattro 4-wheel-drive system and has a rear-drive bias. In testing, the car could travel from 0-100 km/h in 4 seconds, with the automatic version taking just 0.3 seconds longer.

The Wheatcroft Collection (TWC) is pleased to announce a new addition to its collection in this 1944 Willys MB Jeep recently unearthed near Carentan. A true survivor.

TWC did not hesitate and immediately acquired this Jeep for the Collection, now totalling 10, very original time war examples.

A very recent arrival at the America On Wheels museum is this 1932 Hupmobile Series I-226 Coupe. This attractive car, penned by Raymond Loewy, is considered a masterpiece of Art Deco design.

The Michigan Military Technical Historical Society (MIMTHS) introduces its newest vehicle, a 1956 Hawk Pony Cycle U.S. Air Force Airfield Service Scooter. Manufactured by Hawk Tool & Engineering Company of Clarkston, Michigan, the Hawk Pony Cycle was a compact motor scooter designed for utility and maintenance work. During the 1950s, these small, rugged vehicles were reportedly used by the U.S. Air Force to transport mechanics, tools, and replacement parts across sprawling military airfields. Their compact size made them well suited for traveling between maintenance facilities and aircraft parked on the flight line. An Extremely Rare Michigan-Built Vehicle Fewer than 130 Military Hawk Pony Cycles are believed to have been manufactured between 1953 and 1958.

According to Svět Škodovek (World of Škoda), the restoration of a Škoda 720 Italdesign prototype is well underway. The goal is to unveil the car in all its glory at the museum next season. Car Brothers near Brno is responsible for the restoration. The joint project of Škoda and Italdesign formed part of a broader initiative, designated W720, to replace the aging Škoda 1000 MB series with a modern mid-size sedan suitable for both domestic and export markets. The prototype Berlina featured a monocoque steel body designed by Italdesign, characterized by rectilinear proportions, flat body panels, and a subdued front fascia. The design language reflected Western European aesthetic conventions of the period and marked a notable departure from contemporary Eastern Bloc automotive styling.

This is how the Automobile Museum of Nieborów marked this week’s Independence Day – by saving another vehicle of Polish manufacture. The Polski Fiat 125p was manufactured between 1967 and 1991 under a Fiat license by the state-owned manufacturer Fabryka Samochodów Osobowych (FSO). It was a simplified and altered variation of the original, Italian-made Fiat 125, with engines and mechanicals from the Fiat 1300 and 1500. To distinguish between the models, Fiat and FSO revived the marque Polski Fiat. After termination of the license, the car was branded as FSO 1300, FSO 1500 and FSO 125p.

This 1966 Austin Mini Moke is currently on Diplay at the Miles Through Time Automotive Museum for the next few months. This fun looking car was originally conceived and manufactured as a lightweight military vehicle by British Motor Corporation (BMC), and subsequently marketed for civilian use under the Austin, Morris, Leyland, and Moke brands. The name "Mini Moke" combines mini with moke, an archaic term for a mule. The Moke is known for its simple, straightforward, doorless design and for its adaptability.

New to the Antique Car Museum of Iowa is this 1909 Brush. Alan Brush made cars from 1907 until 1912 in Detroit. Cars were more expensive than cars today so Mr. Brush was trying to make his more affordable. Both axles, the frame, floor, firewall and seat are made of wood. Wood was cheaper than steel. Today the reverse is true. The price was $510, or about $18,900 in today's dollars.
