Review: Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet 2007

pepgil — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 14:21:07 GMT

Here's what it's not. It's not the fastest car of its type. It's not much of a looker. It's not light - far from it. It's not in any sense cheap, but you kind of knew that already, didn't you? Which leaves us with what it is: the good things that you'd expect from a 911 Turbo Cabrio, plus a few things that maybe you wouldn't. It's lighter than the last 911 Turbo Cabrio and it's no less economical. It's comfortable and roomy enough for two. It's well equipped and built to last. It rides well, in

Mitsubishi Lancer Review

javito — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 14:21:07 GMT

The Lancer’s proportions and details are spot on. The high beltline adds to the impression of size from the outside, yet allows occupants to feel surrounded and safe. The Lancer’s new front fascia copies Audi’s current pig snout and makes it work, flanking the orifice with a set of angry eyes headlights and bisecting the otherwise gaping maw with a suitably wide bumper. Mitsu ripped off the tail lamp design from the Alfa 156– a gorgeous machine that Americans never got the chance to ignor

First Look: Mercedes-Benz’s R8-Fighting SLC Super Coupe!

pepgil — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 14:21:07 GMT

Rumors have swirled for some time about Mercedes-Benz’s desire to build a new high-end sports car to compete with the likes of Porsche’s 911 Turbo and Audi’s pending higher-power V-10 R8 coupe (whose name has yet to be disclosed). mb-slc-1-250.jpgAccording to Hans Lehmann over at Hidden Image (whose spy shooters clocked this prototype), the car, dubbed “SLC,” will be built on the next-generation SL platform and be motivated by the company’s 6.2-liter AMG V-8. Given that it’s based

Audi RS4 demise rumors clarified

cohes20 — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 14:21:07 GMT

Rumors of the Audi RS4's death have been at least slightly exaggerated, an Audi spokesman has said. Last week, British car magazine Autocar claimed Audi would end production of the RS4 imminently to make way for the RS6. Not quite true, says Patrick Hespen of Audi Media Relations. "There will be a full build of the 2008 model year RS4 sedan, and production is still continuing," Hespen told Winding Road. He said the RS4 was only ever meant to have a two year production run, with 2008 being that s

More Diesel R8 Details

cohes20 — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 14:21:07 GMT

Apparently, the diesel version will be made available towards the end of next year, following the arrival of a mighty V10 powered model. The 4.2L TDI will be lifted from the company’s Q7 SUV, but we can expect it to be tweaked a little, taking power from 322bhp up to around 350bhp. The sprint to 60mph should be in the region of 5 seconds, while a 160mph top speed seems very realistic. The 5.0L V10 model should be with us by early 2008, priced around £85,000. The diesel version should cost abo
