auto body cars

What it is:A front engine,rear-wheel-drive,five-passenger retro coupe that slavishly copies the 1970 original
Why it's important:This Chrysler's play for a piece of the pony-car market that Ford has been gobbling whole since the introduction of the 2005 Mustang that sold 160,975 units that year.
Platform:The concept rides on a shortened version of the rear-wheel-drive LX platform(Dodge Charger,Chrysler 300),but the production Challenger could be a short-wheelbase version of the next-gen LY arhitecture.
Powertrain:Look under the hood for the 6.1 liter Hemi V-8 kicking up 425 horsepower,with the anticipated option of a 500 horse,392-cubic-inch V-8,as well as a base model with a V-6.In addition to the six-speed automatic,the hope is Chrysler wild do the right thing and offer a six-speed manual in the spirit of Challengers of yore.
Competition: Ford Mustang, Chevrolet Camaro.
What might go wrong:Ford was pleasantly surprised with the succes of the 2005 Mustang,but the Challenger,Camari,and Mustang likely will be duking it out for shares of a segment that has been partly sated.
Esimated arrival and costs:The production Challenger will get spotlight treatment at the Chicago auto show in February 2008.We expect production to begin next spring as a 2008 model.
Pricing will be competitive with the Mustang and Camaro,in the $25,000-to-$35,000 range.
A convertible is not planned,but we expect an SRT performance version,perhaps launching simultaneaosly next spring.

What it is: The Rapide is essentially a four-door version of Astons's DB9 two-plus-two coupe.It's a more elegant,less spacious,and more expensive alternative to existing four-door high-performance luxury sedans.
Why it's important:Now that Aston Martin has been sold by Ford to a consortium headed by David Richards od Prodrive,which builds Subaru rally cars among its many ventures,the Rapide gives Aston a fourth model line that should help increase output from 7000 cars annually to 9000.
Platform:The Rapide is built on Aston Martin's VH("vertical horizontal")all-aluminium structure,stretched nearly 10 inches in wheelbase to make room for a piar of adults in back.Overall,the Rapide is 12 inches longer than the DB9.
Powertrain:As it stands,the Rapide will use a version of Aston's 5.9-liter V-12 engine that will put out 473 horsepower,up from the DB9's 444.The show car that was revealead ad Detroit in 2006 also used the DB9's ZF six-speed automatic transmission with pafflde shifters.
Competition:Audi S8,Bentley Flying Spur,Maserati Quattroporte,Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG,Porsche Panamera.
What might go wrong:The likely asking price(more than $200,000)puts the Rapide in highfalutin company,particulary since the Porsche Panamera is reputed to cost as mach as 100large.
Estimated arrival and costs:Keep an eye out for Rapide sometime in 2009,priced at about $220,000.

M3:All eyes are on the 414-hp V-8-powered M3 coupe from the '07 series arhitecture.The engine based on the 5.0-liter V-10 in the M5 and M6,features an 8400-rpm redline and an accessible 295pound-feet of torque at 3900 rpm.Our initial test produced a 0-to-60 time of 4.4 seconds and a quarter-mile time of 12.9 seconds at 11mph.A six-speed manual is the only transmission available when the M3 goes on sale next spring.A twin clutch transmission is expected to debut in a year.The bad news is the M3 has put on about 300 punds over its '06 predecessor ,and the base price will likely be about $7000 more.
1-series: A coupe version of the smallest BMW is the U.S-bound in 2008.Two engines will power the 1-series: a 3.0 liter inline-six with 230 horsepower will be under the hood of the 128 i and 300 -hp twin-turbo inline-six will power the 135i.A sport suspension and body kit will be standard on 135 i and optional on the 128i.Both engines will come with a standard six speed manual and optional automatic. Price is expected to start below $30,000 and top off near $40,000 for a well optioned 135i.
5-series: Exterior styling is tweaked slightly front and rear,although the big news is in the six-cylinder models.Last year's 215-hp 525i becomes the 528i,thanks to a 230-hp,3.0-liter inline-six the 255-hp 530i morphs into the twin-turbo 300-hp 535i.
All wheel drive is available in both six-cylinder models.
The V-8 powered 550i gets the styling tweaks but is mechanically unchanged.
6-series:New front and rear fascias seek to keep design fresh,and the 6-series coupe and convertible soldier on with np major mechanical changes.
Unchanged: M5,M6,X5,Z4,Z4M,3-series,7-series
Dead:525i,530i

THE GRAYING ROADSTER ATTACKS THE TRACK

"Warning!Auto racing is spectacular and exciting,but can be dangerous!" The Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course posts this caution next to the driver's bathrooms,so it's probably worth repeating in this introduction to the Honda S2000 CR.For the CR-the initials stand for "Club-Racer"-is about rubber-chunking,brake-burning,wall-fanning track work.You wouldn't really want the shale-stiff CR for anything else,which is perhaps why Honda plans to sell only 1400 copies of the circa-$38,000 CR in 2008.
The CR,for which the air conditioning and stereo are optionals deletes, "brings the pure open-sports-car concept of tje S2000 to full maturation",says Shigeru Uehara,chief engineer on both the S2000 and Acura NSX,and honda's preeminent sports-car sensei.After 36 years polishing the big H,Uehara calls the CR his "final gift" before retirement this fall.
There's no bump to the base S2000's 2,2-liter four or its 237 horsepower and 162 pound-feet of torque.The CR's credentials are mainly in suspension and aero improvments,some labels and cockpit detailing,and body stiffening.
The CR's front bumper is bearded with a thick spoiler that lowers underbody pressure and reduces lift.The wind tunnel shaped the rear wing to the bite into clean air to the left and right of the cockpit but preserve rear visibility.Twin fairings behind the seats channel air more cleanly for reduced lift when the aluminium hardtop is removed.The electric-folding roof is left of the CR,along with sound insulation and spare tire,adding up to a net 99-pound weight saving with the hardtop off and 51 pounds with it on,says Honda.An additional brace bridgets the vacant roof well for a claimed 11-percent increase in rear lateral stiffness.
Spring rates and shock-damping settings are hiked considerably,although they remain nonadjustable,and the antiroll bars are thicker.The steering ratio is hastened from 14.9:1 to 13.8:1,and stiffeners are added to the rack mount to increase rigidity.The CR's blocky Bridgestone Potenza RE070 tires,tread-widened in back from 245 to 255,proved stickier while lapping Mid-Ohio back-to-back with base 2008 S2000s.
Compared with the base S2000,the CR is simply harder and sharper,with less body roll and tire scrubbing and more corner composure and stability under bracking.With no more horsepower,the CR pruned about three seconds off lap times turned in the base car.That's a gift any racer will surely find spectacular and exciting.

AMERICA'S ODD OFF-ROADER GOES FROM AN ECCENTRIC FIVE TO AN EVEN EIGHT.

Hummer's slamm-caliber H3 started life in 2005 as a tribute less to military hardware than to the old Daktari-style Land Rover,the one with narrow-gauge body,wee 2287cc engine,and storied off-road abilities.The current H3's reletively weeny 242-hp,3.7-liter five-cylinder,smaller body,voluminous23 galloon fuel tank,and optional wall-crawling 4:1 low range are actually ideal attibutes for slow-speed sojours in wild lands where fuel sparse and big engines just wast it.
Alas,even among H3 buyers,the serious safari types would barely fill a jury box.In the paved world,with its short on-ramps and shorter tempers,the five-cylinder is stressed hauling the H3's 4900-pound curb weight to expressway speed's.So Hummer bulks up for 2008 with the H3 Alpha,featuring a pushrod 5,3 liter V-8 with300 horsepower and,more important,320 pounds-feet of torque.
Alpha is Hummer's step-up brand,formely applied to the original civilian Humvee,the H1.The five-cilynder H3 remains in the lineup,starting at $30,695.The H3 Alpha digs in at $39,260.
The V-8 comes with a four speed automatic and is wrapped in the Alpha equipment package,which includes more deluxe interior decor,a Mansoon stereo witha six-CD changer,various power widgets,chromed wheels and trim,and a lower rear-end ratio.Towing capacity rises to a ski-boat-rated 6000 pounds.Plus,Hummer says the V-8 is better for slogging through deep sand where low-speed torque is vital.
Slogging through deep rush hour,the Alpha accelerates more effortlessly and makes V-8 rumbles,but it will never be called gazzele-like.It should slip under the nine-second mark to 60 mph(the five-cylinder does it in about 10 seconds).The ride is still bouncy,the visibility still sacrificed on the small-window altar of macho styling.
With the Alpha,the H3 becomes less an American Land Rover and more a typical Hummer.
....THE REST OF THE LINEUP
H1: Hummer's original product is now available only on special order.

H2: This behemoth gets a version of the Cadillac Escalade's 6.2-liter V-8 with 393 horsepower and nattier interior,plus frame, suspension,and eletrical-system upgrades inherited from GM's redesigned GMT900 full-size trucks.

A HALF-MILLION BUCKS WILL ALSO BUY YOU 21 MIATAS.BUT THE EFFECT WOULDN'T BE QUITE THE SAME.

From the perspective of Chris Davies,this car makes no sense.Davies is the Brit who's pushing a European Parlamient initiative to limit the top speed of all cars in Europe to just over 100 mph.Since the Mercedes SLR Mclaren roadster can do about twice that,it has to be near the top of the list of "boy toys" that Davies wants to ban.
There's something to his position,but not for the socioenvoironmental reasons davies cites.traveling at speeds of more than 100 mph in any top-down automobiles gets to be uncomfortable,and that applies to the SLR more than most,thanks to the basso bark of its side pipes,relentlessly reminding occupants of every combustion event in the 5,4 liter SQHC 24-valve V-8 engine.With supercharging and intercooling,these are eye-widening events,and they produce eyeball-flattening resoults:617 horsepower at 6500 rpm,a prodigious 575 pund-feet of torquw,0 to 60 mph in a little under four seconds,the quarter-mile in a little aver 11 seconds at about 125 mph.
The roadster may hit these marks a smidge slower than a hardtop,due to its slightly greater mass.Mercedes reports that the roadster weights about 100 more pounds than the 3858-puond coupe.But that won't matter to the deep-pocketed few.The roadster is about style and exclusivity,high speeds or low.
In fact,Klaus Nesser,head of exclusive products for Mercedes,expects drotop-SLR buyers to be more inclined ti cruising than racing.An open car provides more opportunity to been seen and envied.Just drop the automatic top,which takes about 10 seconds.
Nesser says the convertible conversion was easy:"All we had to di was remove the roof."Herr Nesser was joking,but only a little.The roadster's body uses a stronger carbon-fiber weave than the coupe(triaxial weave versus biaxial),and there are hefty steel beams in the A-pillars.But beyond that,the body shell needed no reinforcement.If there's any compromise in chassis rigididy,it's subliminal.
Chassis rigidity is the corner stone of agility,and the roadster's credentials on this score are hard to fault.Grip is abundant,responsses are mongoose quick,and the carbon ceramic brakes are equal to the power,which is both vast and seductive,
Still,the SLR's dynamics are aslo hard to love at first drive.The steering is overly weighted,a little short on feel,and quick at 2.3turns lock-to- lock: a tricky blend.And the brakes-by-wire system is too eager by half.It's hard to be smoth with this car.
But whaddya want for a half-million bucks?The SLR's capabilities are slightly outrageous,and it's curbside presence even more so.Exclusivity never comes cheap.

Here are tehnical specifications:
vehicle type:front-engine,rear-wheel-drive,2-passenger,2-door roadster

Estimated base price: $500,00

Engine type:supercharged and intercooled SQHC 24-valve0V-8 aluminium block and heads,port fuel injection

Q7 suv gets a baby brother

Audi is poised to introduce two crossover sport-utility vehicles in the next years.Late in 2008,the midsize Q5 is expected to debuton the same arhitectures as the '08 A5 coupe and next generation A4 sedan.A year after the Q5 goes on sale,Audi will follow up with the smaller and sportier Q3 previewed by the Cross Coupe Quattro concept shown at the Shanghai auto show.Built on the same platform as the '09 Volkswagen Tiguan,the Q3 will have a transversely mounted engine and all-whell drive provided by an electonically controlled center clutch pack.Additionally,an electronically controlled locking rear differential similar to that of Saab's XWD system may find its way into the Q3.To distance the Q3 from its Volkswagen brother,the Audi will offer on-road performance,won't have a speck of off-road ability,and will be firmly entrenched in the $30,000 range.
Surprisingly,the Q3 will be packed with several features that Audi generally reserves for ots sportiiest cars,the RS4 and R8.Those options will include ceramic composite brakes like those of the R8,cross-linked dampers similar to the system on the RS 4,and driver-selectable suspension settings.In addition, a so called drive-select program will give the choice of three different modes(sport,efficiency,and dynamic)that affect suspension tunning,throttle response,transmission shifts,and steering effort.As one would expect,in efficiency mode the Q3 will work toward maximizing fuel economy:The engine will shut off when idling and minimize the use of air conditioning.Audi claims efficiency mode will boost fuel economy by 20 percent.
A new 2.0-liter turbocharged diesel four-cylinder will power the Q3.This engine will be introduced in the redesigned A4.Expected to meet emissions standard in all 50 states,the new engine will produce about 200 horsepower and 295 pund-feet of torque.Coupled to Audi's S tronic dual-clutch gearbox,the powertrain is purported to be able to return 40 mpg,in addition to the diesel,the 200-hp gas-powered turbo four from the Audi A3 will be offered.
At the 172,4 inches long,the Q3 doesen't promise Chevy Suburban levels of interior room, but Audi claims that pushing the wheels toward the corners will maximize interior volume.Other differences from the Tiguan will be a more aggressive exterior design with a large Audi-style grille,large wheels,and Q7 styling cues.One problem that remains is the name.Infiniti unleashead its legat office on Audi for using the letter "Q" for the Q7.Audi settled with infiniti and the Japanese automaker agreed to let Audi have the Q7 and Q5 names,but thr future of the Q3 name remains in limbo.

Deciding not to wait until a coachbuilder picks up a Murciélago to convert it into something different, Lamborghini decided it could do the job better and started work on project code LP640/2, aka the M.O.A., which stands for "Meanest of All." Spokesman Dominik Hoberg said the designation was decided on because the car is expected to have "at least" 650 bhp. However, we now know the final name of the car to be the 2008 Lamborghini Reventón.
We all agree that the look is stunning. All body parts are new, except for the windshield. Edgy, metallic-gray carbon panels form an extreme appearance inspired by modern aircraft design. The Reventón sports LED lighting front and rear, an all-new fuel inlet and black alloy wheels topped with carbon blades.

True to stock dimensions, the Reventón was designed in-house by Centro Stile Lamborghini and "embodies a compression of the brand's DNA," as CEO Stephan Winkelmann points out. Underneath, the Reventón is all Murciélago with a 6.5-liter V-12 drivetrain.

The interior is as special as the exterior. Instead of the stock instrumentation, you'll find functional 3D displays including a g-force meter. By pressing a button, instruments can be changed to a classic analog readout.

The 20 slated for production next spring carry a price tag of €1 million. Eleven cars are destined for the U.S.

Geneva Auto Show is the host for The brand-new, long-awaited Maserati GranTurismo, styled by Pininfarina.The key words that describe the interior style are: modernity, elegance, craftsmanship, sportiness, liveability.Starting with the qualities that make it very pleasant when speaking of every day enjoyment (more room in the back than the average for the segment, the rear seats that have been designed to accommodate two adults comfortably even on long journeys, attractive design, wide range of materials, leather, woods and colour combinations available) and continuing with the strong visual impact inspired by the lines of the Pininfarina Birdcage 75th concept car, you can say that Maserati GranTurismo is definetly a car that outshines many other manufacturers.
The attention to detail exudes from a number of features such as the subtle chrome inlay that elegantly decorates the buttons on the dashboard and steering wheel, the Trident logo hand-crafted on the seat headrests, the Alcantara trim lining the back of the gear change paddles, the leather belt fitting, front seats, beautifully handcrafted.
As technical specifications that makes this high-performance sports car very exciting to drive, we can mention:
- V8 4.2 engine with 405 hp at 7,100 rpm and maximum torque of 460 Nm at 4,750 rpm, of which 75% is already achievable at 2,500 revs. Its maximum speed is 285 km/h, and it accelerates from 0-62 mph in 5.2 seconds.
- Weight distribution is 49% on the front, 51% at the rear.
- The gearbox is automatic with self-adjusting controls which adapt the gear change to the driving style and conditions.
- The car is 4,881 mm long with a wheel base of 2,942 mm. The standard wheel rim is 19” or 20” as an option.
Once again, the the Maserati - Pininfarina team has produced an exciting car whose construction, unique and inimitable style sets it apart from the competition, which makes the name of the new model - Maserati GranTurismo- not to seem as a coincidence at all.

On March 16 2007, Callaway Cars has announced that the C16 Convertible will be unveiled at the New York International Auto Show.
The new car is based on the Chevrolet Corvette platform and it incorporates an impressivelineup of exclusive, ultra-high performance characteristics.
The designer of the C16 Convertible is the experienced Paul Deutchman, the same one that has also drawn and modeled the C16 Coupe and that has a 20 year portfolio with Callaway designs. He has managed to achieve an integrated look of the C16 Convertible by remodeling the original design, by redrawing every panel of the standard body while maintaining the easy to operate power top.
The engine is a supercharged 6.0 liter V8, with 560 hp. But if requested, the C16 convertible has also an optional performance Package which brings 616 supercharged horsepower and 582 lb-ft of torque at 4,750 rpm.
The Callaway C16 Convertible can reach 60 in 3.5 seconds and 11.2 seconds for a quarter mile. You will find 3 transmission options on the Callaway Convertible : 2 six speed manual transmissions or 1 six speed automatic with paddle shift.
The brake system is especially made for Callaway. In order for the car to be able to go from 200 mph+ to instant rest, the system will be using 6-piston front and 4-piston rear calipers gripping 355mm diameter rotors.
On the inside you will be amazed by the fine German leather and Alcantara which covers the convertible’s cockpit. Recaro has chosen and manufactured the extremely stylish seats. The clients will have a great importance in how the car will exactly look like, because the cars are built only at order and they are serialized and identified by its build plaque; also top and interior appointments will be chosen by the client.
The car has an advanced spring/damper system (developed by /Eibach Multi-Pro coil-over suspension) which features ride height, corner weight, and pitch angle adjustability. The dumpers are made from aluminum and have mounted on remote reservoirs that give to the driver the possibility to customize by his likings settings for track or road conditions.
If you want to be one of the exclusive customers for this car you will have to have waiting and ready to roll in your bank account about 128 765 $.

The most powerful Mustang ever, the 2008 Shelby GT500 KR is to be unveiled at the New York International Auto Show. This new car will mark once again Mustang as KING OF THE ROAD, at the 40’th anniversary of the 1968 Shelby Cobra GT500KR.
The one who has been responsible for keeping the original Shelby muscle car spirit is Doug Gaffka, Ford SVT chief designer, together with his team and Shelby team.The carbon composite hood has been custom designed and it was mainly supervised by Gary Davis, vice president of production and product development for Shelby Automobiles. He has managed to give a visual indication of the extra horsepower that lies underneath the hood, by sculpting a modern version of the original hood scoop.
The polished aluminum, Shelby-designed 20 inch, forged and polished wheels bring once again the exclusive spirit to front. The models that will enter production will arrive at the customer with the 18-inch version of the design.The engine is a 5.4 L supercharged V8 which brings the “King of the Road” to 540 horsepower and 510 lb-ft. of torque. A six-speed tranny helps power to get to the rear wheels.The Shelby Team has worked closely with Ford’s SVT and Racing teams in order to recalibrate suspension and to bring improvement to the steering and handling. Features of recalibration include advancing the ignition timing and also re-mapping of the electronic throttle settings. This will bring a quicker throttle response for better off-line and middle range acceleration.As expected, the production will be a 1000 units limited one and it will start arriving to Ford Dealers in the spring of 2008. Every single one of the limited 1000 KR models will be identified 40’th anniversary KR badges on fenders and grille.

This super car’s name wants us to remember the sparkling mind of a Ferrari coach builder, Sergio Scaglietti. He created some of the most fabulous cars for Ferrari manufacturer in the 1950’s and 1960’s.
Being produced at the Ferrari’s Carrozzeria Scaglietti factory, the 612 Scaglietti is a 4 seats - 2 doors coupe that owns of course a 5.7 L (5748 cc) V12 engine produces a power of 540 CV (533 hp/397 kW) and a torque of 588 N·m (434 ft·lbf), that can make the car touch 100 km in 4,2 seconds, the top speed of the Scaglietti is 315 km/h.

The design of this luxurious super car knows no boundaries. We can talk endless about the comfort that every element that car possesses, beginning with the steering-wheel mounted and fascia-mounted controls, the Hi-End Bose sound system that is especially configure to optimize the acoustics of the leather and aluminum. Even the luggage compartment is benefiting of a lot of space: 240-liters. Of course, it couldn’t be a top new super car, a 2006 model if it wouldn’t had the new technology like MP3 player, Bluetooth, voice recognition system, a Compact Flash memory card reader that allows 4 GB of music to be stored and even a radio-CD system with satellite navigation system, and a point for safe handling is the parking sensors that comes in the standard price of the car, 250,509$.

Subaru goes to 3,6 liters for more muscle

Slow sales have Subaru planners reexamining the B9 Tribeca,with its 3-0 liter boxer-six getting particular atention.Although the engine is Sub's biggest mill,power-and most noticeably torque-rises considerably owning to a 20 percent displacement bump to 3,6 liters.
Rest assured,it's still an iconoclastic boxer,with even new quirks due to constraints of manufacturing and packaging.For instance,while the bore spacing is unchanged(there's only a slight increase in cylinder caliber),the stroke is way up,rissing from 80 mm to 91.
That requires some unusual,asymetric connecting roads to keep the engine's wais line from expanding to much.
Result?256 horse power at 6000 rpm and 247 pound of torque at 4400-up from the 3.0-liter's 247 ponies and way up from it's puny old 215 pound-feet of torque.That's the good news.The even better news is that it'll now run on regular gas due to revamped(and far more efficient)coolant paths.Best of all ,expect 10 to 15 percent better fuel efficienty.
Just another one of those win,win,win situations you hear so often about.

For the celebration of the 50th birthday of the car manufacturer Ferrari, the company released on the market in 1995 a sport car, two doors, two seats with a convertible hard top. This F50 Ferrari had of course an V12 engine inspired from Alain Prost’s 1990 Ferrari 641/2 F1 racecar, with 60-valve.
This super car had to be an limited edition to continue with the company’s myths that not everyone that wants a Ferrari can also have it. The model of F50 produced, the number 349, was made in Italy in 1997.One of this model of super car also manage to get a fabulous owner: the Sultan of Brunei ordered a Ferrari F50 in 1998, it was a custom model made especially for him.
With a weight of 2976 lb., this super car has a length of 176.4 in., a height of 44.1 in., and a width of 78.2 in can reach a maximum power of 513 bhp @ 8000rpm and a mximum torque of 347 lb-ft @ 6500rpm.
