It means a new shape to the grille opening, as well as a large space above the slot for the number plate, but not much else.

The SLS will get a new look to the grille and lamps, but Carparazzi predicts nothing major on the mechanical front.

It's F-Type droptop is already up and running and now we can see how the car will look with a fixed roof in 2014. The arrival of the F-Type coupe, most likely priced below the convertible, also opens the way for hard-edged go-faster models including an RS. Here late in 2014 for around $130,000.

The body is finished and only the swirly camouflage is protecting the final details on a car that is longer and wider with a longer bonnet and slimmer A pillars.

The all-new 2014 F-Type convertible sports car has proven a runaway success for Jaguar, with the company claiming to have already sold half a year’s worth of production despite the model having just been launched.To keep the momentum going, Jaguar will follow up with a new coupe variant, which has been spied undergoing testing in prototype form at Germany’s Nürburgring circuit. The prototype is for the high-performance F-Type V8 S, as evidenced by its quad-exhaust tips.An F-Type coupe is something that’s been mooted ever since the reveal of the F-Type-previewing C-X16 concept car at the 2011 Frankfurt Auto Show, which itself was a coupe. However, the biggest giveaway that the launch of an F-Type Coupe was imminent was the reveal of new patent drawings for the car not that long ago. This production version is expected to be launched on the market late next year, most likely as a 2015 model.Apart from its roof, the car should be identical to the current F-Type convertible, which means a trio of powertrains matched to an eight-speed automatic transmission. A six-speed manual is planned for the F-Type, though Jaguar is yet to confirm when it will be offered.The F-Type’s engine lineup kicks off with a 250 kW  supercharged 3.0-litre V-6 (base), followed by a 280 kWr version of this engine (F-Type S), and finally topping out with a supercharged 5.0-litre V-8 rating at 364 kW (F-Type V8 S).Note, there’s talk that the F-Type’s engine lineup will be expanded--in both directions. At the entry level, expect to see a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder join the fold while at the other end of the spectrum we should see a more potent version--or versions--of the supercharged 5.0-litre V-8.Hopefully, the price of the 2015 Jaguar F-Type coupe will undercut the $139,000 starting price of the base F-Type convertible. That should make an already enticing car even more desirable.For a taste of its performance, be sure to read our first drive review on the convertible.www.motorauthority.com 

... and this M4 proves it. It is being tested at the Nurburgring just as official pictures of the regular 4 Series coupe go public, and Carparazzi sources say it will continue with a six-cylinder engine, but wearing up to three turbochargers for maximum go. Here later this year.

...At the Nurburging before it follows the coupe onto the world's roads.It's mechanically identical apart from Aston's usual folding canvas top, and is expected to go public at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September.

The bra masking at each end points to a minor body update, but there is the promise of more-powerful diesel engines and a big update to the car's infotainment and driver-assistance systems.

Nissan is planning to take the 2014 more upmarket with a punchier look that's closer to the funky Juke.

But that could change with a total overhaul of the boxy city car for 2014.
