Why don’t you join myself and my roommate Phil in our favorite hang out:The Buttbar in beautiful Van Nuys California. This is where we relax after a hard day of being Hollywood Extras.Where we always meet pretty girls. As you can see on this clip, they love us there. And be sure to “check you… Continue reading Early Holiday treat!
New Ford Mondeo
More illustrations of what the next Mondeo could look like.And they seem to agree with previous guesses. If the car looks anything close to this, it might be the last nail in the Passat’s coffin. And it’ll be even tougher to be happy about the Fusion/Milan…(I still think Mercury should just be selling the European… Continue reading New Ford Mondeo
Citroen C4 sedan
I weird one, and another proff that adding a trunk to a modern hatchback design ruins it.Although it loos from this picture, that they changed more than the back. So maybe it’s not a C4 after all. New C5?Who knows???Not the prettiest Citroen design anyway… This is the regular 5 door C4. A good looking,… Continue reading Citroen C4 sedan
Kia Soul Concept
A little bit of Land Rover, a little bit of Nissan Note.But it would still be nice if they could actually something close. I’m not holding my breath…
New Audi A2
So the A2 is dead… But Audi still wants to have a smaller, and cheaper car than the A3.This time around it might be in the form of a small 2 door coupe, instead of a tiny but roomy 4 door hatch, like the previous one was.Who knows, we might even get it over here.… Continue reading New Audi A2
Hyundai HCD-9 Concept
Here is a better view of the new concept from Hyundai. And what a name… From that angle, it looks less like a 2 (or 4 ) door coupe, and more like a weird sporty crossover. Don’t hold your breath though. So far, none of the great looking Hyundai concepts from the past have ever… Continue reading Hyundai HCD-9 Concept
New VW Touran
The current Touran came out in 2003. So this German illustration seems a bit early, at best. (unless it is their upcoming small SUV)Touran is a small van type car based on the Golf. Like the Renault Scenic is based on the Megane.But the VW is one of the most boring design out there. I… Continue reading New VW Touran
2007 GTO
This just looks like someone added after market crap on their GTO.But is is said to be the look of next year’s Holden Monaro. So we might actually get these changes on the GTO. Not pretty…You can’t really make a boring design exiting by adding spoilers, side skirts etc…Wasn’t Pontiac supposed to stop that a… Continue reading 2007 GTO
2007 Mazda CX-7
That’s all we have so far, the 1st official picture.And it looks great, about as good as last year’s concept. The engine for the US will be a 2.3Liter Turbo with 244hp. The combined MPG is expected to be 23.FWD or AWD and it seats 5.
2007 Toyota Corolla.
Two new illustrations of the Euro Corolla this week. Althought the top one almost looks like an official shot… It matches all the spy shots of prototypes I’ve been posting in the past few weeks, so I believe it is really close to what we’ll see.. In Europe. Here, well… Add a trunk for one… Continue reading 2007 Toyota Corolla.
Chevrolet Camaro Concept
GM will show a concept version of the next Camaro in just a few weeks.It is sure to be one of the hightlights of the Detroit Auto Show. This is an illustration of what that concept might look like. And I think it is very close to what we’ll see early next month.Keep in mind,… Continue reading Chevrolet Camaro Concept
Renault Koleos
The name might or might not stay. But this is at least the 3rd illustration I see showing mostly the same design.So it must be getting very close to the real thing… Either that or they’re all wrong. This compact SUV might even replace the Nissan X-Trail in some countries, or be sold as the… Continue reading Renault Koleos
2007 BMW 1
The small 1 Series hatch has been on sale in Europe for quite a while now, and still, nothing here.They are waiting for the sedan and coupe version to be ready. (this is an illustration of what the coupe might look like). And BMW has claimed they don’t want to sell any more 4 cylinder… Continue reading 2007 BMW 1
2007 Kia Optima
Just found new pictures of the next Optima ( Lotze in Korea ), and it does look better to me. A bit less like the Q45… Another alternative to the new Camry. With a better interior than the Sonata. I’m not sure if Kia is supposed to be cheaper or more expensive than Hyundai. This… Continue reading 2007 Kia Optima
2007 Camry SE
Not sure what is it, but it sure looks better than the previous pictures.I don’t like spoilers etc.. But, maybe it’s the larger wheels. There is still hope that the new Camry might look very nice after all…
2007 Ford Edge
Finally an Edge photo I won’t be asked to take down.As we already know, it will introduce the new 3.5 Liter V6 and a 6 speed automatic. And looking good…
Hyundai HCD 9 Concept
We only have this obscure illustration so far, but once Detroit opens we’ll know more.Again, it is supposed to forsee an upcoming product. Maybe the next Tiburon. Right…. So many times before they’ve shown us really cool looking concept that never trnaslated into any of their product line.Again, this looks really nice. It looks like… Continue reading Hyundai HCD 9 Concept
Mercedes E Class
Another illustration, this time the next E Class.This one looks really nice and expensive. Mercedes always works the same way, they redesign the S Class, then everything else looks the same but smaller..Like sausages in a factory. I still think it is overpriced. The current E starts at over $50 000, for a mid sized… Continue reading Mercedes E Class
2007 Mercedes C Class
Just a new illustration from Germany.Nothing great, or really new. Engines will include a 2.5 Liter V6 with 210hp and the 3.5 Liter with 270hp. I don’t think these cars are that great to begin with. The Japanese competition is just too good for less.I’m not even talking of the luxury brands like Lexus or… Continue reading 2007 Mercedes C Class
2007 Camry Info.
No new pictures, sorry… But here is more “official” info on the Camry. I think it is pretty interesting. I didn’t expect a 6 speed auto with the V6. And also that much power for the Hybrid… ………………………………………………………………….America’s best-selling car is redesigned for 2007, getting new styling, more power and features, and, for the first… Continue reading 2007 Camry Info.
