• “New” Jaguar XJ

    I guess a new bumper makes a new car…For some. That’s the only new thing I can see.An all new one is still a couple of years away. I don’t think a new bumper will all of a sudden set sales on fire.And now it looks a little bit weird.This is a great car, but… Continue reading “New” Jaguar XJ

  • 2008 Subary Impreza sedan

    I guess this would be closer to the model we’ll actually get in the US.Again, let’s hope the real thing looks way more modern than this…

  • Who will get Chrysler???

    Although not officially for sale, the Chrysler division of Daimler/Chrysler seems to already attract the weirdest offers. I mean wasn’t GM almost bankrupt just a few months ago?Now that can afford billions to get Chrysler.And a Chinese company seems interested as well.Hyundai apparently said no, so did Renault/Nissan. But the Vince Burlapp company hasn’t said… Continue reading Who will get Chrysler???

  • Mazda 3 Diesel

    Not for here of course. But the 2.0 Liter puts out 143hp and more torque than most V6s.

  • 2008 Subaru Impreza

    As far as I can tell, these are still just illustrations. And it doesn’t look great. Subaru should be futuristic, modern.This looks like what the last generation should have been…A 3 year old Mazda 3 looks like the Starship Enterprise next to this. Let’s hope these are way off. Coming up, the sedan version. The… Continue reading 2008 Subaru Impreza

  • New Jetta Wagon

    Even in another color, it doesn’t really look like a Jetta, does it. Looks like the people who designed the back never talked to the ones who designed the rest of the car…(Or never even saw a picture of the rest of the car) US introduction in April.

  • Mercedes C class Bluetec

    Seems like every new German car is going Bluetec lately.The new second coming of the diesel engine… This one is supposed to get 43mpg with a 170 hp engine.That is really good considering how heavy a Mercedes is, even a small one.Could this really compete with Hybrid cars in the US? If this can get… Continue reading Mercedes C class Bluetec

  • Vauxhall VXR8

    England could be getting their own version of the Holden Commodore.Better known here as the 2008 Pontiac G8. Pretty much the same car. I am not sure if the market for a V8 large sedan from a non luxury brand even exists in Europe…

  • VW Golf Wagon

    After almost 4 years, (The current Golf came out in Europe in 2003) VW decides to roll out a wagon version of the current Golf.An all new Golf is due for 2009. I guess we’ll get this as the Jetta wagon over here.The Jetta already looks generic and not German at all. This is even… Continue reading VW Golf Wagon

  • 2008 Honda Accord

    We’ve seen the coupe a few weeks ago. And here is the sedan version. This illustration (I think) shows us the larger US Accord. Not the more modern looking and slightly smaller Euro Accord that will end up here as the next Acura TSX. No other news yet. I guess the 3.0 Liter V6 will… Continue reading 2008 Honda Accord

  • Mystery Van.

    Another one I’m not too sure of.Not sure where the picture was taken either.All I can tell you is that it wasn’t Arizona. Could it be the next Toyota Sienna?It would be too early for a new Odyssey. But the new Sienna is pretty much due next year. What do you think?

  • Cars in Movies

    Instead of watching a TV show about the Academy Awards this week end, we should all rent movies with cool cars in it.Like these George Barris creations:-The car-The ZZr from “Out of sight”-The Golden Sahara featured in “Cinderfella”

  • New MG!?

    Well, not really.Just like the “old” small MG was based on the Rover 25, this one looks like a version of the upcoming Roewe 250.A clone.

  • More “GM goes to Hollywood”

    Some of the cars from the “Transformers” movie.A friend of mine has been working for a long tim on this.I was never into transformers, but I must say, the trailer looks pretty good. It even has an older Spielberg movie feel to it.Even though he’s only producing. And the Camaro…….

  • Kia EX-Ceed Concept

    Just a convertible version of Kia’s new hatchback for the European market.A soft top version of an already nice looking car= another nice looking car. No surprises here…

  • Next Jaguar XJ illustrations

    British magazine Autocar has published these new illustrations of the upcoming new large Jaguar sedan.Not sure if they were done for the magazine or if they actually came from Jaguar, somehow. But they look like what Jaguar needs.Although a bit close to the new XF, the S type replacement.

  • Honda Crossroad

    Here are more pictures of the little Honda SUV. I still think it would be a good choice for the US line up.Below the Element and right against the new Scion xB.Available with a 1.8 Liter with 140hp, or a 2.0 Liter with 150hp.FWD or AWD.And you can even get a sunroof! (unlike the xB)… Continue reading Honda Crossroad

  • Hyundai i30

    Yes, i30….I know. Exactly like the old Infiniti model.That should tell you right there this car isn’t for the US market. Unless they change the name. But for now anyway, we don’t get it.Too close to the Elantra.In Europe it will fight agaisnt the Focus/Golf/Astra/Megane crowd. 1.6 and 2.0 liter engines will be offered.
