Hemmings/Saratoga Auto Museum Auto Show
2009-08-10 19:19:00
I attended the Hemmings and Saratoga Auto Museum auto show on Saturday, August 8, 2009 in Saratoga State Park. It was a beautiful day with hundreds of cars of all types. My wishful thinking is to buy a classic car so I was checking them all out. One of the nicest cars at the show was this MG T
The Berkshire Charity Auto Show (Part 2)

"Auto show crowds acclaim the new 1935 Plymouth", read the placard on one of the vintage vehicles at the 24th annual Berkshire Charity Auto Show. "America needs this high-speed safety car", explained the framed article from the January 19, 1935 edition of the Saturday Evening Post. Equipped wi

Wil the Taurus SHO be introduced at the Chicago Auto SHOw?
2009-02-09 16:29:00
All signs point to a SHOwing of the EcoBoost 3.5 liter DOHC twin-turbo V-6 at the Chicago auto show. Question is: will it be shown in a Taurus... and will that model be named SHO? Ford has provided additional images of the EcoBoost engine in the last few weeks. First a picture (actually provided as part of the Detroit show press materials) of the special piston used in the boosted version of the 6. You'll note the dish in the middle of the piston that the (direct) injector is aimed towards. Also note that the injector is placed in the side of the head. This is current practice - but not for long. The upcoming 4 cylinder EcoBoost engine places it on the top of the chamber (known as "central"), between the valves, pointing downwards. The Jaguar 5 liter V-8 engine (designed with Ford, but alas no longer owned by Ford) places it similarly. Ford has also released the very first image showing the production ready engine. Previously released images were of d...
2009 Detroit Auto Show Preview: Maserati Quattroporte Sport GT S
2008-12-28 08:21:00
When one thinks of the Indianapolis 500, Maserati is not a name that pops immediately to mind. However, cars wearing the famous trident logo won the 500 twice in 1939 and 1940 when legendary Wibur Shaw drove an 8C TF to victory at the “Brickyard” both years. Thankfully, even with all the bad news about ...

Detroit Auto Show 2009 Preview:SLR Stirling Moss won?t be offered in North
2008-12-28 08:12:00
With the exhibitors’ roster for the upcoming 2009 Detroit Auto Show dwindling, you’d think that any cars being unveiled there might actually, you know, be available in North America. But according to reports, you’d be wrong. Mercedes-Benz is anticipated to unveil the million-dollar Stirling Moss edition Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren, but sources indicate that the limited-production topless supercar ...

Big week for Nissan at the Los Angeles auto show
2008-11-16 17:20:00
This is going to be a big week for Nissan with announcements at the Los Angeles show including the all-new 370Z. In preparation for this week, it would be good preparation to review the 'Nissan GT 2012" business plan presentation by Carlos Ghosn from May 2008. The presentation includes both video and slides: (suggest <right click> and <open in new tab>): http://www3.stream.co.jp/web06/-nissan/press/EN/epre/080513/bb/-index.html The Z announcement and official unveiling is only a few days off.  However, this weekend there were two official unveilings of actual production cars held in the Los Angeles area and of course numerous spy photos have been seen over the past year. Thanks to all of this there is only a little we don't know about the new 'Z: we've already got pictures of the complete exterior, the engine compartment and interior, and one to answer our big question about the location of the brace. The big brace of the 350Z is gone, r...

2008 SEMA Motor Show Preview: Dodge Mopar Challenger Targa and Blacktop

While a V10-powered Challenger is devilishly delectable, our Mopar-loving hearts beat for something a bit more balanced with a healthy dose of motorsports cred. To that end, Dodge created the Challenger Targa to campaign in the Targa Newfoundland enduro earlier this year. Affectionately known as “Samantha,” the Dodge  Challenger began its existence as a Mopar Challenger ...

Moscow Auto Show 2008: Lexus LS460 AWD
2008-08-27 15:26:00
The Moscow Auto Show seems like the perfect place for Lexus to unveil the all-wheel-drive version of its LS460. Russians have a torrid love affair with rolling living rooms, evidenced by the 7-series and S-class-lined streets of Moscow’s high-end shopping districts. Add AWD to the equation and the Lexus LS460 makes a strong case against the ...

Honda Legend facelift leaks out

Acura rolled out the 2009 RL at the Chicago Auto Show, so the appearance of the Honda version of the car, badged Legend, isn’t the most searingly-hot news.

2008 Beijing Auto Show See World Cars Trend
2008-05-03 18:27:00
“Automakers wage war for market share,” reads the headline over at China Daily. The current battlefront of that war can be viewed at the 2008 Beijing International Automotive Exhibition, which runs through April 28th. With 890 vehicles on display in the 1.9m square foot arena, the nine-day event is expected to attract more than 600k visitors. The spoils of war can be lucrative, too, with Chinese vehicle sales up 21.4 percent year-over-year, which translates to 2.58m cars sold in the first quarter. Total sales are predicted to surpass the 8.79m units sold in ‘07 and reach 10m vehicles in 2008. While the suspected recession in the U.S. has tempered car sales here, the prospects in China offer a respite: Ford’s Chinese sales have “rocketed” by 47 percent in the first quarter. GM’s Rick Wagoner figures China will account for more than 40 percent of global auto sales growth in the coming decade. Meanwhile, Mercedes-Benz launched its C-Class sedans in China last month and Ul...
2008 Beijing Auto Show: Spirra S Supercar of Oullim Motors
2008-05-03 17:14:00
2008 Beijing Autoshow:  Another World Premiere on the Beijing Autoshow 2008 was this Spirra S Supercar, it is from South Korea and a company called Oullim Motors is the owner of the brand. The Spirra S will roll of the line in Korea next month and production for this year will number 100 cars for Korea only. No word on production for the rest of the world but I don’t think Oullim would have bothered to bring the Spirra to Beijing if they didn’t have any export plans. Engine is a 2.7 6 cilinder from Hyundai, supercharged by Spirra to 400hp and 355nm, 0-100 takes 4.8 and topspeed is 305 km/h. From the Beijing Autoshow 2008, here she is, the Spirra S:

2008 Philadelphia International Auto Show Coverage
2008-04-30 17:28:00
Black Tie Gala, Food, Booze, The New Audi A4 and Miss AmericaAfter a very long week in the office, I was looking forward to a relaxing Friday night with my girlfriend. I had been talking to a few of my co-workers and one of them mentioned they were going to the Philadelphia Auto Show's Black Tie Gala event that evening. Having lived in the area for the last couple of years, it was something I always wanted to do.The reason I hadn't gone in the past is because the price tag for the event was rather steep - $200 for the evening. Seemingly every year the price had gone up, and for whatever reason I just dealt with general admission to the venue. Over the past few years I'd grown weary of car shows being mobbed by people to the point where you really couldn't get a good look at anything for more than a few seconds, as people would shuffle you out of the way for their 10 second chance to glimpse an exotic auto.Taking a picture was impossible as well, because even if you had enough sp...

Beijing Auto Show 2008: Volkswagen Lavida meets its home audience

Shanghai Volkswagen developed the new VW Lavida in China, for China. Now it’s made its big debut before the home-market audience in Beijing. Stylistically, the made-in-China design looks oddly dated, quite frankly. The petal-shaped head- and taillamps look like something you might find on a 1990’s Korean import and not a newly-minted VW, regardless of ...

2008 Beijing Auto Show: 2009 Hyundai Elantra
2008-04-12 21:15:00
The 2009 Hyundai Elantra will make its debut April 20 at the Beijing Motor Show, an increasingly important step on the car show circuit as automakers seek growth in China. Jalopnik reports, "The new Elantra maintains the design language of the rest of the cars in the lineup that aren't the Genesis. That means an evolution of the front end treatment to something more resembling a late model Acura." Autoblog sees the same resemblance, saying "it's somewhat reminiscent of the beak on early-'00s Acura CL/TL models. Those cars still look good, so this is not a bad thing for the Elantra." Autoblog likes the look, commenting, "Think of the changes as going from regular vanilla ice cream to that tastier version with the little flecks of real vanilla inside. They're basically the same thing, but you gravitate towards the fancier one. This is how we feel about the new Elantra." Carscoop points out that Hyundai has not formally said the changes...

The tenth Beijing International Auto Show will open on April 20 in the new hall of the Beijing International Exhibition Center. Until now, more than 2,100 manufacturers from 18 countries and regions have participated, including the United States, Japan, South Korea, France, Germany and Italy.

2008 Vancouver Auto Show: Subaru Forester and PZEV
2008-04-02 19:09:00
2008 Vancouver International Auto Show Exhibitor: The Subaru. It may just be the lack of winter weather, but Canada's west coast seems pretty green. For that reason it is fitting that Subaru is exhibiting its Partial Zero Emission Vehicles (PZEV) here at the Vancouver International Auto Show. The 2009 PZEV models will be offered in Outback and Legacy sedan / wagon guise. These vehicles are not hybrids and still run fully on regular unleaded gasoline, but the gaseous waste from their modified 2.5-litre 4-cylinder boxer engines is up to 90 percent kinder to the environment compared to an average new car. This statistic is care of a more complete fuel burn and the eradication of evaporative emissions from the fuel system.2009 Outback PZEVMore refined inside and out, the all-new 2009 Subaru Forester is also on display. The new Forester's styling has been refreshed, smoothing out the old browed look. The new model continues to be a safe and nimble compact hauler with an excellent all-w...

On April 2-6, the DFW Metroplex spotlight will shine brightly on the Dallas Convention Center when the Dallas Auto Show comes to town. “Last year, more than 385,000 auto enthusiasts visited the Dallas Auto Show, proof that our ‘love affair’ with the automobile is alive and well,” said Kurt Fegraeus, 2008 Dallas Auto Show chairman. “The Dallas Auto Show really is a ‘must see’ event. The consumer has the greatest of opportunities to view all the latest and greatest of every manufacturer, all under one roof. If someone is shopping for the perfect car to buy, this is the ultimate time to compare everything on their shopping list. And, this year, we are not only welcoming ‘repeat visitors’ to the Show, but we would like to entice new showgoers to experience everything the Show has to offer as well. We believe it will be a headline-worthy event.”First and foremost, Fegraeus said, are the cars themselves. “Vehicles get faster, more technologically advanced and more lu...
