And it doesn’t look very realistic.These guys are amazing at keeping a secret. We’ll see everything in Detroit, I think.Again, a Lexus version will show up a year later.

As early as next week.the Birmingham plant started producing cars again recently after a 2 year hiatus.The new Chinese owners are claiming deliveries starting next week. But as they announced a few weeks ago, nothing for the US… I just wonder what is up with the freaky orange color on all these cars….

This will probably be the least popular Camaro SS ever .By the time it comes out, gas will be over $5 a gallon. Any car with a 6.2 Liter engine and 422 hp will have very limited appeal.Sure, the SS has always been the top and most expensive Camaro. Therefore not the most popular model.… Continue reading 2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS

Ssangyong, the Korean/Chinese manufacturer of the world’s ugliest SUVs will be showing a new concept at the Paris show. And it’s not ugly!That’s the big news. Plus it will be car based unlike their other ones.I remember last year reading about an all electric SUV being offered in the US . That was actually based… Continue reading Ssangyong C200 Concept

More soon. I still think this would make a great addition to the Honda lineup in the US.Between the Fit and the Civic. Honda has a big hit with the Fit in the US. I already saw a couple of the new ones in the streets.The City would do great in our country where sedans… Continue reading Another picture of the new Honda City

After driving the Saturn Aura for a week, I was just wondering how was the same powertrain (2.4 Liter with 6 speed auto) in the newer Chevrolet version.When I first drove the Malibu last year, the 6 speed wasn’t available with the 4 cylinder engine yet. The one I am driving now is not the… Continue reading Malibu drive coming up

Chinese car maker JAC has decided to show the world how bad a Chinese car can look.And, I am happy to report, it is a complete success.

Besides the obnoxious name, I think the car looks great.A great idea too. Bringing back the coupe/wagon idea. This “concept” is actually what we’ll see next year as the all new CLK Coupe. Except without the wagon/hatch rear end.The CLK is a nice looking car, but has never be really striking. Especially for the asking… Continue reading Mercedes Concept Fascination

This is a little crossover/wagon thing based on the compact C3. And I think it looks great. Like a French Kia Soul.Except it looks roomier AND… It has the giant glass roof I love so much.Which, I think, moves it up in the coolness department. I hear the “regular” C3 models haven’t been really reliable.… Continue reading Citroen C3 Picasso

Just a teaser until the Los Angeles auto show. But don’t expect all new.And the interior, even though most everything is new there, looks also pretty much the same.I don’t think this will be new enough to compete with the Camaro.The Chevrolet looks much more like a new car, because it is. We’ll see… AmericanMuscle.com… Continue reading 2010 Ford Mustang

I think this look really cool.Reminds me of what some small independent manufacturers were designing in the 70’s.It just looks like fun. The specs are the usual dream stuff too…Click on the title to get to their page.It says it all right there. But if it ever turns out to be for real, a small… Continue reading XR-3 Hybrid

Some new Diesel technology allows the 1.6 Liter engine in the C30 to get above 53mpg in the C30 coupe.A little less in the S40 and V50. That’s pretty amazing. The C30 is a great looking car. Too bad we don’t see that many around. I think these figures would make it quite a bit… Continue reading Volvo C30 DRIVe Diesel

Better without the suits, but still. How about an interesting color for such a modern product. I mean why do they have these lame pictures of this car they’ve been teasing us with for years???If they want, they can fly me over to Detroit as soon as they want, and I’ll take really good shots… Continue reading Volt without suits

It’s no secret Mini is working on a crossover/Small SUV car.They’ve been testing prototypes for ever… But this is a bit of a disappointment.It really now start not even looking like a Mini.I don’t really see the point of this. I think a 4 door version of the regular Mini would have been a better… Continue reading Mini Crossover Concept

It does look much more modern than the old one.But still. After seeing a few of the new Citroen C5 in person. And many pictures of the new Opel Insignia, I don’t think Toyota is up to the European level as far as design and personality are concerned.It still looks much more generic than the… Continue reading More Toyota Avensis pictures
