Still looks really nice to me. In pictures… What would it take for you to actually buy one?If you were in the market for a coupe that is. Let’s say it passes all safety crash tests in the US. And let’s say it fees solid and well made when you sit in it at the… Continue reading More pictures of the new Brilliance Coupe

The other one, the one from 1996.Subaru must be running short of names for their concepts.

As usual, this is not for the US. We have Lexus and the Avalon here. And now the Crown will also be available as a Hybrid.

Yes, another guess.I guess this could go against that new Droopy Maxima next year. I must say, that new VW, whatever they end up calling it, will look really nice.

And a nice interior.It also looks a bit better from a profile.If they work on it, it could make for an interesting Maxima… Anyway, here is the official corporate BS: “IntimaA New-generation Saloon for People with a Sophisticated, Discerning Eye for Beauty – Who Enjoy Spending Time in Refined Elegance and Comfort, Whether Traveling Alone… Continue reading More on the Intima Concept

Even weirder.But I guess, it has always been pushing the envelope.

A.K.A “Droopy” There was a rumor last year about the next Maxima design turning into one of these “4 door coupe” models like the Mercedes CLS. So I guess this is it. But so far, it’s not pretty.They would need to change a lot of things to make that car look like something decent.

Looks like a preview of the next RX to me.Except the spy shots of the production model don’t show such a low roofline.The next RX should grow longer to make room for a smaller model. So maybe this is more a preview of that smaller one. Who knows…

Not really sure, but that looks like the next Forester to me.. And again, nothing spectacular. Just looks like a short Legacy wagon.At least there would be more difference than the last time they redesigned it, back in the 1930’s or something…

We’ll now more at the auto show next month.But this is it. Nothing specacular. Just a straight redesign that pretty much looks like the old one.

Well, it IS a hybrid. So if it makes it to production, it might well turn out to be the small hybrid model they were talking about. Rumors are it would get over 70mpg. But this is a pure concept. Unlike the Accord Coupe concept they showed last year, which was actually a production model… Continue reading More on the CR-Z Concept

A pure electric car from Subru?Why not. This would even be better than a hybrid for city commute.It seats 5 and can do about 140 miles on a single charge. Just a concept for now, but the main design does look production ready, save for some trims.It looks fine, but there is nothing in there… Continue reading Subaru G4e Concept

Looks like a preview of the next CRX ro me. This would look great. And if it turns out to be that “smaller and cheaper than Civic” hybrid model. Even better.

Kind of weird… And I hear about “only” 280hp. So it’s pretty much as powerful as a Camry or an Accord…(V6)With that kind of weird overdone look, shouldn’t it be even more powerful?

Another good looking Chinese car. The A6 Coupe will be really close to the concept (Orange car) we saw last year.And again, and Italian design (Bertone).This time, a V6 (a first for Chery) will be available.

Rover never had an SUV, so this is a new one.Not a rebadged Rover. Owner SAIC claims they will come up with 30 new models by 2010!Amazing. But Chery was also supposed to sell cars over here by next year. So the Chinese aren’t too shy about outlandish claims. Who knows, we might even see… Continue reading Roewe SUV coming up

tThe great Mark Steherenberger is usually not wrong. But in this case, I hope he is. I sure was hoping a bit more from the next Corvette.But then again, I was hoping more when the current one came out…

I know, it’s just a “teaser”.But it’ll have to do, for now….
