• Opel Vectra

    The top photos are the new one.And as expected, that new front end looks awfully close to the upcoming Saturn Aura.But they pretty much kept the rest of the car as it was before. Except for the stuff that is cheap to change, like the tail lights, wheels and bumpers. Even less news inside. But… Continue reading Opel Vectra

  • H3 In Europe

    That’s right. You might think this could never work. The continent were small sensible hatchback cars outsell everything else couldn’t possibly want this !Well… GM is trying. But not so hard. First, they only have the gas engine available. Although they claim a 3.0 Liter diesel should come later. They have no chance at all… Continue reading H3 In Europe

  • 2006 VW “new” New Beetle

    I don’t think they “ruined” that great design. But the problem is: why even bother???The New Beetle is one of the best car designs out there and there is no good reason to move away from the original 1994 “Concept one” design.Why try to make it more angular? Isn’t the “Bug ” the one car… Continue reading 2006 VW “new” New Beetle

  • Ssang Yong Kyron

    These are the official shots of the new Ssang Yong SUV. It looks pretty nice, and much, much better than some of their other offerings…It even has now an independant rear suspension!And, like most other Ssang Yong, uses a Mercedes diesel engine, In this case, the 2.7 Liter with 176hp.Sales in Europe should start soon… Continue reading Ssang Yong Kyron

  • 2006 Saturn Vue

    Am I the only one thinking this is an aberation???The new front end (above), to me, ruins the whole design. This was one of the more attractive car based SUVs. More chrome isn’t the answer to everything.They keep changing what doesn’t need to be changed. Remember the Pontiac Fiero? Complains about the car were many:… Continue reading 2006 Saturn Vue

  • Peugeot 407 Coupe

    This production model caught near Versailles, looks almost exactly the same as the “concept” shown a few months earlier. No surprises there. Although it is not as perfect as the previous coupe, this new one is a gorgeous adition to an already fantastic 407 line up…

  • R.I.P Audi A2

    Another cool small car bites the dust… Audi’s smallest model, the A2, will stop production in July of this year.It was never a huge seller but I don’t think it was intended to be, really.And 175 000 units in 6 years isn’t that bad.No word on a replacement yet. And I wouldn’t count on it.… Continue reading R.I.P Audi A2

  • Peugeot 307

    That was a complete waste from Peugeot. The 307 still looks great.This slight restyling looks very good, but why bother???Seems like it’s just a new front, bumpers, wheels and interior details.I don’t get it. But I must say that new front end looks fantastic…

  • More on the 2007 Camry

    That is one sleek profile for a conservative car.And with a hybrid version available, this should be the car to beat in the mid size segment. I bet the Toyota Execs hate camera phones by now…

  • 2006 Renault Clio3 RS

    A 2.0 Liter engine with 200hp doesn’t seem that much to us in the US.But remember this car isn’t that much larger than a Mini Cooper. And 2.0 Liter for that size car is a pretty large engine.Regular Clios will mostly have carried over engines from the present generation. They include a 1.2Liter, 1.4Liter and… Continue reading 2006 Renault Clio3 RS

  • 2006 Subaru Impreza

    Another new front end for the Impreza and the WRX/STI !!! The car came out in 2000, and already had the front end redesigned for 2003!And now this. They just can’t wait to have all their models with that new “corporate” front end designed introduced in 2003 on the B9 Concept.That means this 6 year… Continue reading 2006 Subaru Impreza

  • Cadillac Villa

    The Italian Bertone design house has always been one of the craziest one out there. Some of their concepts from the 60’s and 70’s still look to advanced for our times. I thought I would post some pictures of what they think a smaller Cadillac for the European market could look like in the future.… Continue reading Cadillac Villa

  • 2007 Lancia Delta

    This illustration seems pretty close to what a new Delta could look like.The Delta was replaced, kind of, by the Lybra model in 1999. But the soft and boring looking Lybra never had the personality the original Giugiaro design Delta had…Let’s hope it looks even half as good as this. Lancia needs all the help… Continue reading 2007 Lancia Delta
