Show me a nice new car

Well, Charles, an M140i... most impressive! Quite the tidy hotrod. Is that body style called a "Touring" as I recall BMW using that term? I have, sadly, traded in my former M3 of which I was fond, but it was time...
 
Over this side of the pond it's called a hatchback (a true hot hatch in this case), so it has the full tailgate but not the separately opening rear window of the touring. I wanted something compact and my load lugging days are over, so this fitted the bill nicely. Wonderful torque, power and economy. Of course, it's been laid up for the last 4 months and I'm still not getting full use, but the odd photo trip becomes rather a fun drive too!
 
These little Italian cars are popular around here. I see them all over the place.

It's Sunday in Yokohama and a Porsche and Ferrari are playing cat and mouse.
By-the-way, the white car on the far left is a Jaguar.
