Porsche only made a little over 300 examples of the 959, and one of them was allegedly bought by Nissan for benchmarking purposes while the automaker was developing the R32 Skyline GT-R. The car is now headed to an auction coinciding with next month’s Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance.

Mercedes-Benz has been spotted testing a prototype for its next CLA-Class, and the design looks to be a close match to the lines of the handsome Concept CLA-Class unveiled last fall. The new compact sedan is due around 2025 and will offer buyers a choice between hybrid and fully electric powertrains.

With sales slowing, Ford has slashed Mustang Mach-E pricing for the third time in just over a year. The latest price cuts mean the electric crossover starts just over $40,000, and in some grades the cuts are more than $8,000.
