2009 Acura TL
So far the al new TL looks like a cross between the Accord and the TSX.I know it’s tough to tell from these pictures, but I’m not expecting anything spectacular. That horrendous new Acura grille will ruin any design it is applied to anyway… Let’s just hope it doesn’t jump in price. Click on the… Continue reading 2009 Acura TL

Magic numbers???
What was going on back in the 70’s with MGPG numbers???Look at these ads. Did they know something we don’t ?I realize cars were lighter, and less powerful. But still.The Prius is light, and not that powerful. These old cars seemed to get similar numbers without all the Sci Fi technology.. What gives?46mpg with a… Continue reading Magic numbers???

Better Cube picture
Here we can clearly see the glass roof over the front seats. The more I see this car the more I love it.It is a piece of modern art on wheels. Let’s just hope this is it. By the time it comes out, gas will be way over $4 a gallon, and I really think… Continue reading Better Cube picture

Another mystery…
Not sure what this is at all.Looks like it could be some mule, or prototype that never made it into production. Or could it be the “next something”???

New Ford Flex pics
Looks like Ford is trying to sell the Flex to a “new and cool crowd”.Exactly the same people who would never be caught dead in a minivan. I think it’s a good idea. I just wish the interior was a bit “cooler”. Younger looking.The giant Mini Cooper exterior seems to work. I will be test… Continue reading New Ford Flex pics

Cadillac CTS-V speed record
I don’t really see the point of taking cars to a track. Unless they are race cars.But I guess GM needs to do it to be taken seriuosly in the “super fast over powered luxury sedans” world. So here it is:Nurburgring in less than 8 minutes.Fasted recorded production sedan.

Next Mercedes CLS???
I hope not. This isn’t bad looking. But the Mercedes CLS is one of these cars that I hope never get redesigned.Although I know it will….

All new 2009 Nissan Cube
They did what I thought was impossible: make the new Cube even more modern and original than the current version.And that’s the one we’ll get in the US! This is great news for anyone here who wants something cool and different. And the timing couldn’t be better for a small, yet roomy, economical wagon with… Continue reading All new 2009 Nissan Cube

Jaguar F Type?
Well, at least it won’t be called F Type. Jaguar now seems to be using the letter X in front of everything. This illustration looks OK. Jaguar is planing a 2 door car based on the XF. Either a coupe or a sporty convertible like this one.I just don’t think this looks very much like… Continue reading Jaguar F Type?

All new Z!
This looks very real to me.So I’l say it: Here is the all new Nissan 370 Z! And I think it looks better than any of the illustraions I’ve seen so far.Familiar yet different. Pretty much the story of any recently redesigned Nissan/Infiniti models. It still works great here. Thanks to a reader for this… Continue reading All new Z!

the battle for the $2500 car isn’t over yet. Now Renault/Nissan wants to compete with the Tata Nano (So far the cheapest car in the world from India).Together with their Indian partner Bajaj they have just announced their own super cheap model. It doesn’t look nearly as crappy as one would expect. (Although these doors… Continue reading Another super cheap car

I guess some 2009 models are coming out early at Ford.s.The Focus coupe get some small changes for the new year. Already. None of them are any improvement. The new front bumper is supposed to make it look more like the upcoming Fiesta.And I just hope these horrible looking wheels and the spoiler are options.… Continue reading 2009 Ford Focus Coupe

Fit coupe?
Honda might actually be working on a sporty 2 (or is it called a 3 door) door coupe version of the new Fit.So this could actually be a real successor to the old CRX. They are also working on a production version of the CRZ concept. But that will be a hybrid only model.So they… Continue reading Fit coupe?

Just a reminder…
Convertible version of the Lexus IS is coming up. This might start a bit above $35 000 and could give both the BMW 1 series and the 3 series convertibles some competition.I am still shocked about the 1 series convertible’s $35 000 base price. This should really have been the new 2002. The coupe should… Continue reading Just a reminder…

VW #1!
That’s right. Volkswagen is the number one car maker in China! Their FAW VW joint venture has sold more cars than anyone else over there. During the 1st 4 month of the year. No wonder they don’t seem to care that much about the US market…They sold here a total of 230,572 units in 2007.… Continue reading VW #1!
