T1no Posted May 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 i have to say the new front end of the c30 looks pretty good with the lip added. i kinda like it now. it finally breaks the whole bricks look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malaphax Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 That is one of the hottest hatchbacks I've seen bar none. I would drive that thing n a heartbeat. Now if only they release a tuned down version of this. I don't exactly need 400hp for day to day. Oh well it looks sweet, let's see if they actually put it into production.

kuhla Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 source - http://www.autoblog.com/2010/05/09/skoda-u...orthersee-2010/ It's no secret that we're fans of the ?koda Fabia S2000 rally car. The good news for us Europeans is that VW's Czech brand has decided to integrate some of that racing DNA (at least appearance-wise) into a Fabia RS model scheduled to debut at W?rthersee 2010. This is ?koda's first visit to the big GTI gathering, and they've obviously come prepared. A green roof and alloys aping those used on the S2000 racer are the Fabia RS's showcase elements, along with a brutal lower front lip, smoked glass all around, darkened chrome work, a rear spoiler, and side skirts. The Fabia RS joins Volkswagen goodies like the Golf GTI Adidas, which will also be formally unveiled, and it will be on display from May 14-16. Cool color scheme.

kuhla Posted July 1, 2010 Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 source - http://www.autoblog.com/2010/06/30/slick-l...0-ferrari-deal/ Soon enough, we Americans will be able to feast upon the Forbidden Fruit that is the Fiat 500. Will we get the hotted-up Abarth models? That remains to be seen, but one thing's for sure, we're super duper jealous of the hotter hatch that the folks at Pogea Racing have created ? the 500 Ferrari Dealers Edition which boasts more power (a lot more power, actually) all wrapped in a too-cute (but still somehow menacing) package. The Pogea team starts with a 500 Abarth, which in standard form produces 160 horsepower and 169 pound-feet of torque. From there, a new turbocharger, exhaust system, downpipe and catalytic converter have been added, meaning that the tiny Fiat now cranks out a whopping 264 hp and 243 lb-ft. Staggering numbers for a car that's smaller than a Mini Cooper. To tame all of that extra grunt, larger brakes have been added that reduce braking distance by about six feet, though the new stoppers are identical in weight to the standard Abarth setup. Yes, we want one. In fact, we'll take two. Scroll through the gallery below to see dozens of high-resolution photos, and follow the jump to read Pogea Racing's (translated) press release. Good god.

This is very appropriate. Lest we forget, let me remind everyone how ridiculous that vehicle is: 500+ hp, 2.2L i5 turbo engine, curb weight just over 2400 lb, 0-60mph around 3.1s, early version of DSG transmission, special no lag turbo system where the turbo was always spinning at high rpm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kuhla Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/me...3/m3-pickup.jpg more at http://www.autoblog.com/2011/03/15/spy-sho...round-the-ring/ http://i44.tinypic.com/b6zmuo.jpg source - http://www.autoblog.com/2011/03/22/confirm...ril-fools-gift/ In a chat with BMW's Munich head of product communications, Dirk Arnold, he offered up this quote: "Ah, yes, everyone's been talking about that pickup. But, no, this is... how you call it, an April Fool's Joke" [in German "Aprilscherz" - ed.]. There will be no M3 pickup in our futures, kids. But then Arnold sort of overcommunicated to us by dangling one of those "...in this generation" qualifiers. He then also managed to immediately clarify, "It is hugely doubtful that BMW will ever during our lives produce such a vehicle, in any segment." Oh, pooh. What about a publicity stunt entering the one-off in the Australian V8 Ute racing series? (Honestly one of the most entertaining racing series on the planet based on our one trip to witness it.) "Well," chortled Arnold, "we have the one unit available if they'd be interested, don't we?" more boring info at source Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
