Nissan prototypes in Beverly Hills
Just saw these today. The G37 was unusually low to the ground. Not sure what they were testing there. Maybe a mule for the upcoming coupe? The X Trail has never been sold in the US. And I hear the next one might be merging with the Rogue. So again, not really sure what this… Continue reading Nissan prototypes in Beverly Hills

2014 VW GTI
Now we have official pictures of the all new GTI. Based on the Golf VII. No surprises here at all. Since we already saw the diesel version, GTD, last week. So far, Euro specs are: -220HP or 230HP from the 2.0 Liter Turbo. -17 inch “Brooklyn” wheels. -18% improvement in fuel economy. -Smoked LED rear… Continue reading 2014 VW GTI

2014 BMW 5 series
The usual “hard to tell changes” from BMW. I guess they have to offer something “new” to advertise once in a while. Since everyone else is doing it… This is the current model. As you can see, most changes outside are lights and bumpers.

More pix of the Alfa Romeo 4C
Sure it does look great. But the interior seems a bit of a let down. At least on that picture. These seats seem really flat. Especially the headrests! And it does look a bit cheap. Like these 80’s and 90’s Alfas. They are talking about 240hp from the small 1750cc Turbo engine. For a car… Continue reading More pix of the Alfa Romeo 4C

2014/15 Kia Forte Coupe
Looks like it will be a cross between the current Coup model and the new 2014 Sedan. (silver) No big surprises here. And it doesn’t really have to be. The current model still looks good. And the new sedan is one of the best looking car in its class.

2014 Jeep Cherokee
No more Liberty. It’s back to the old Cherokee name. (Which was till used overseas anyway) This quite a departure. I am sure many people will be screaming about this bold design. I foresee many tears from the good old macho crowd. Personally, I think it’s about time Jeep comes up with a modern take… Continue reading 2014 Jeep Cherokee

Holden Commodore Sportwagon, and Ute
This is, of course, the wagon version of the revised Commodore introduced just a few days ago. But unlike the sedan this will NOT come to the US. Which is too bad. I think it looks better than the sedan. But I guess it doesn’t fit under the “4 door Corvette” description. And the Ute… Continue reading Holden Commodore Sportwagon, and Ute

Mystery car…(???)
This was sent to me by a reader suggesting it is a Sonata. It does look like a 2 door car on this picture. Maybe the coupe version of the next generation? The front also reminds me of recent Chrysler prototypes. Could it be the next 200? What do you think it is?

BMW 4 Series
Not sure if this is the real thing or not, but it sure looks like it. The Cabrio especially does have a strong 6 series feel to it. Which is good. Otherwise, it just look like a slightly updated version of the current car. The coupe especially, doesn’t make the current model look old.

2014 Mercedes S Class Coupe/CL
Not sure how they will call it yet. There were rumors a while ago that the next big coupe was going to be called the S Coupe. So who knows. This illustration does match recent spy shots we have seen of the car. So the real thing should be pretty close when it comes out… Continue reading 2014 Mercedes S Class Coupe/CL

2014 VW Golf GTD
The GTD is the diesel version of the GTI. So far, it has not been sold in the US. But this all new version, based on the 7th generation Golf, (due out in the US next year), might make it over here. There has been rumors about VW bringing the GTD as well as the… Continue reading 2014 VW Golf GTD

10 years ago: Chevrolet SS Concept
This is what Chevrolet teased us with 10 years ago. Same idea as the new 2013 SS. A sort of 4 door Corvette. Except this concept was really good looking. Still is now. And it’s been 10 years. 10 years later we have this. A design that basically came out in Australia in 2006. It… Continue reading 10 years ago: Chevrolet SS Concept
