The 1st official picture. Just a teaser so far. Audi has also mentioned that the US market will not get this car. I guess they still think Americans don't like hatchbacks... Here is a teaser video.

Finally. The Mustang won't be using the old Explorer engine anymore. Starting next year. It is supposed to be getting a version of the 3.7 Liter already in used in other Ford models. It will make over 275hp. Much closer to the Camaro's 300hp V6. This should be a really nice car. There is really no need for V8s anymore in our new "2009 over $3 a gallon world". (Which is what I just paid yesterday, by the way...)

Competition on the car market is huge. With over 20 car manufacturers and various models, it's definitely not a gap in the market. Ferrari however, has a huge automobile history. Ferraris are pure emotion. They aren't most reliable, one of the cheapest or practicable. But every Ferrari driver probably agrees that they are the best cars in the world. So which Ferrari gives you most thrill? 1. Ferrari Enzo (FXX) A car is really good if Ferrari names it after its founder Enzo Ferrari. The Enzo FXX is a project still going, with the car getting updates still. The Enzo FXX is sold only when you're chosen by Ferrari and changes owner for about €1,300,0000. Maintenance is huge, about €40,000 per year. But everyone will look at you when you drive one, guaranteed. And when it's dark out… I dare you to take it out for a spin. 2. Ferrari F430 Ferrari's new race car, replaced the 360 in 2005. It has a maximum speed of 317 km/h and is sold starting from €180.000. Remarkable is t

Best looking cars in each class 2009. The AutoBild group, a publisher of more than 27 magazines, each year asks their readers what they think is the best looking cars of that year. The tests are separated into 4 groups. On average 40 million people each year vote for the winners of the design award 2009. The results aren't final yet but here are the leaders at the moment. Category A (small/compact cars) 3. Volkswagen Polo. 2. Citroen C3 Picasso 1. Renault Megana Category B (Sedan/station wagons) 3. Porsche panamera. 2. BMW 7 series 1. Opel Insignia Sports Tourer Category C (Coupe/cabrios) 3. Audi A5 cabriolet 2. Aston Martin DBS Volante 1. Aston Martin One-77 Category D (MPV/SUVs) 3. Lexus RX 450h 2. Saab 9-3X 1. Audi A4 Allroad Interestingly in the last category the difference between then number 2 and 1 is huge in terms of votes. So the Audi A4 looks like a sure winner when the final numbers of this year's design awards come in. Can't wait. The cars on this list are all v

Tuning a mustang can be simple or complex. There are a few ways to tune a mustang. The common way is through the use of a hand held tuner. The other way is by tossing the car on the dyno and testing tunes to get the maximum power and efficiency. First, the hand held tuner. The typical mustang tuner is going to come with a few programs on it. Typically you get an 87 octane, 91 octane, and 93 octane tunes. Each tune has been dyno tested on a dynamometer which measures horse power and torque throughout the entire rpm ranges, so you can see the mustangs torque curves. The tuners also allow for speedometer recalibration for those who go to larger or different sized tires, or even for different axel ratios. They also read and clear DTC's (diagnostic trouble codes) or check engine lights. Typical gains on a diablosport predator mustang tuner are about 20 horse power. Most mustang tuners come with extra tunes for the people that have added an air intake or an exhaust system. Diablosport do

For 2008 the Bentley Continental GT has undergone a similar modification to the Ferrari 575 GTZ by Zagato in 2006. Perhaps the most noticeable change is the roof and tail section which recieves Zagato’s trademark double hump roof design and rounded tail. This is highlighted by the two tone paintwork, British Racing Green for the lower section and dark silver for the roof

Exotic cars are the ultimate in tuned cars. These vehicles come straight out of the factory tuned to perfection. While we all can’t afford exotic cars, many car tuning hobbyists create their own. In fact, with the right tuning car parts, know- how and maintenance, you can easily surpass the performance of even the most expensive and rarest vehicles on the road.

The 2008 Buick Invicta Car is a four-door mid-size sedan car with a coupe-like roofline that showcases a new design direction for the GM brand. The 2008 Buick Invicta sedan makes its world debut at Auto China 2008, in Beijing. Powered by a 2.0L DOHC, direct injection turbo engine, the 2008 Buick Invicta may delivers 250 hp and 220 Nm of torque. The 2008 Buick Invicta engine transfers the power to a six-speed automatic gearbox. Press Release Buick Evolves Global Design Inspiration Into Invicta Show Car The sleek Buick Invicta show car revealed here in conjunction with Auto China 2008 is Buick’s strongest statement yet of its deliberately international plans. The four-door mid-size sedan with a coupe-like roof line presents bold direction for Buick’s new generation of vehicles in the world’s two biggest automotive markets – the United States and China.

This is supposedly the production model. (Although it doesn't match 100% the official teaser) And just like the rather horrific X3, it looks pretty cheap. With all that black plastic trim. And, just like the X3, it won't actually BE cheap.

Ever wondered how the Saturn Vue would look like as a Chevy? Well here it is. As a new 2010 model. In Brazil... The Vue is one of the few models Saturn's new owner will keep selling for a couple of years. Like the Aura. And the new Equinox would prevent it from being sold as a Chevrolet in the US anyway. But still, not bad looking...

One of my favorite option ever. On any car. This makes the Mustang feel like one of these future cars from the 60's. And it looks great with the new design.

The new mid size sedan from Peugeot is due out sometime next year. I don't think there is any chance we'll ever see it in the US. But it does look pretty good. Even if these latest illustrations do not seem to match the earlier picture of the prototype...

2009 Saturn Sky Redline Roadster Sport Car First introduced as a high-performance version of the Sky roadster in 2007, the Red Line turns out decent performance from an Ecotec turbocharged 2.0-liter engine that produces 260 horsepower at 5300 rpm and 260 lb.-ft. of torque at 2500 rpm. These figures give this engine the notable distinction of having the best horsepower-to-displacement ratio of any GM engine and the most powerful motor in the Ecotec family. Gasoline direct injection technology helps the engine produce more power while maintaining the lower fuel consumption of a small displacement port-injected engine. With direct injection, fuel is delivered directly to the combustion chamber to create a more complete burn of the air/fuel mixture. Less fuel is required to produce the equivalent horsepower. EPA figures for the Redline are a decent 21 and 30 for highway driving. Despite those numbers, the Redline gets to 60 mph in 5.5 seconds. 2009 Saturn Sky Redline Roadster Sport C

Yet another illustration of the upcoming small 2+2 coupe. Probably wrong. Subaru might offer an STI version of the car. Apparently, both the Subaru and the Toyota would share the same design, with minor differences like the front end etc...

According to rumors from China, Ford would already have an agreement to sell Volvo to the Chinese car maker Geely. How weird... (At least Saab is staying Swedish) They are also saying that Volvo might relocate the XC90 production line in China. That could mean Chinese made Volvos could find their ways in the west sooner than later. I just don't know what to think about this...

Now with interior pictures. Still not sure if we'll ever see it in the States. GM still would own 35% of Opel in their deal with Magnia. So this might still end up as a small Buick. Just like it will in China.

Just thought I would refresh everyone's memory with these pictures of the Chinese version of the Opel Insignia, the Buick Regal. Now that Buick US is officially calling it the Regal Concept in the US. It does look like we will get this car over here.

That's just what these new Buick print ads are mentioning. They should the whole new Buick line up, including the new gorgeous Lacrosse. But also what they call the "Regal Concept". We all now the new Regal is a version of the Opel Insignia sold in China. No matter what, it's good to know that the Insignia will end up over here. There have been many rumors about the Regal/Insignia ending up over here as an entry level Buick model. Now this is almost sure....
