219mph in a Lamborghini

On the 202 Freeway in Arizona.That’s pretty much how I drive every day, except I don’t take freeways, so no big deal to me.

New Brazilian Ford Ka in the streets.

Already????

I actually can’t remember if I already posted this or not…Here it is any way. It seems that the new Murano has been getting very good reviews lately.With the LE model being luxurious enough to with Lexus .

Peugeot 308 RC Z concept heading for production

That’s the latest rumor. The cool looking concept would give Peugeot something to compete with the Audi TT. With both gas and diesel engines.(The TT will get a diesel option next year)

Another Forester picture

I guess this is from a Japanese brochure or something.It doesn’t look bad. And it could be a hit for Subaru. It’s really not worse than the current model.Subaru buyers don’t really seem to want anything else.

2009 Subaru Forester Interior

Just like a higher Impreza.I still think the Tribeca has a great interior and should have influenced the new Forester a bit more…

Revised Mercedes SL

That’s pretty strange. Usually Mercedes either completely redesigns their cars, or give them these super mild mid-cycle refreshes. This looks like a “big refresh”. With an all new front. Not sure but the interior looks new too.

New VW Santana

In China, the Passat has always been renamed Santana. The current Santana was still based on the ol Passat model. So this will just make it up to date with the rest of the world.From these pictures, it looks like VW decided to do some rather weird looking modifications to the car. Especially the rear… Continue reading New VW Santana

Speed Racer trailer

I guess this is mainly for those who like their movies to look like video games.I don’t. I like movies to look like.. Well… Movies… But if you grew up watching the cartoon, there must be something a bit exiting about seeing the whole thing “for real” for the 1st time.

Revised 2010 Ford Mustang

I thought this was supposed to be a 2009 model.I guess not…This will be a revised or “facelifted” model. Not an all new car. Just like Ford did with the Escape. The glass area stays pretty much the same. But everything else looks new. And I would guess the base engine will be the new… Continue reading Revised 2010 Ford Mustang

What car is this? Part10

Mini Monte???

Another illustration of the upcoming AWD 4 door Mini. I still wouldn’t call it a “Mini SUV”.Even though it will be built in the same factory as the BMW X3. Whether they call it Monte or not, it’s coming…

The Chery factory

That’s how they make them.And wether we like it or not, they’re coming, sooner or later….

Chubby nerd’s friend drives the new STI

Another lucky guy… This Subaru actually looks pretty nice to me. Maybe that’s because I like hathbacks. Or maybe because I really enjoyed my VWR32 drive. I still don’t get how this transmission works. It seems to have an automatic mode but yet looks like a regular manual.And I hear the Auto on the Impreza… Continue reading Chubby nerd’s friend drives the new STI

Hyundai i10

At the other end of the Genesis, we have this new little Hyundai.With its 1.1 Liter 75hp Diesel engine, something we’ll never see over here….

What car is this? Part9

New small Ford

Looks like one of these “south America only” small Fords based on the European Ka.

Challenger Sold out

Dodge has already received 6000 deposits on the car.And the 1st year production is only 5000 units. I guess you can call that a hit.I can imagine the mess trying to get one of these. Reminds me of the $32 000 PT Cruisers I used to see when it came out.

2009 Pontiac Vibe prices

The all new Vibe will start at $15 895.They say it’s about $1500 less than the “old” one.That’s for the base 1.8 Liter model.The GT with the 2.4 Liter will go for $19 895.While you can get the AWD (also with the 2.4 Liter) for $19 895. I guess these are pretty good prices. But… Continue reading 2009 Pontiac Vibe prices
