Some amazing and very creative concepts that are more likely to be seen in the next installment of Halo. From cars that can melt to ones that can shape-shift,, the automotive designers really let their imaginations soar, which was the point of the Challenge. And even though they seem far fetched now, what would a caveman say if you tried to explain indoor plumbing to them?
The show-stopping Acura Advanced Sports Car Concept, which debuted at this week’s Detroit motor show, is designed to incorporate a powerful front-mounted, rear-drive V10 engine with Honda’s super handling all-wheel drive (SH-AWD), which also underpins the Honda Legend.
Following the Audi R8 V10 Project Valkyrie from last week, we can now show you the latest project from SR Auto Group. Called Project Militar and based on the 2010 Range Rover Vogue. The package includes a decent new body kit with a new grille, new side gills, blacked-out taillights, tinted windows and 24 inch Agetro V500 wheels in a matte black finish and with a gloss black outer lip. The main point to focus on is the Militar Gray exterior paint job.

The 2011 Cadillac CTS-V Coupe which debuts at the 2010 North American International Auto Show in Detroit comes with the LSA 6.2L supercharged V-8 engine also found on the Cadillac CTS-V Sport Sedan. Rated at 556 horsepower (415 kW) and 551 lb.-ft. of torque (747 Nm), it is the most powerful engine offered in Cadillac’s history and propels the CTS-V Coupe from 0-60 mph in 3.9 seconds. A pair of six-speed transmissions is offered in the Cadillac CTS-V Coupe: a Tremec TR6060 six-speed manual with a dual-disc clutch and a Hydra-Matic 6L90 six-speed automatic with paddle-shift control.
The R-Class has had a rough life. Not only did it suffer from odd, disproportionate styling, but Mercedes-Benznever really marketed the vehicle the way that it should have, choosing to position it as a "sports tourer," rather than the obvious upscale family hauler that it is. Dismal sales ensued. Makes sense, then, that the 2011 R-Class benefits from a slightly more comprehensive overhaul than the standard mid-cycle refresh usually entails. Right away, we must say that the R-Class's new schnoz is a giant leap forward from drooping proboscis of the outgoing car. New, more chiseled headlamps accent a larger, more upright grille and a less angular hood. The revised lower fascia features the automaker's new quad foglight design – something we've already seen on the E- and GL-Class. Not much has been changed out back, save the standard mid-cycle enhancements (revised taillights and a tweaked bumper). Interior changes are minimal, which is fine, since we've never really had a problem with the sports tourerpeople mover's cabin. Look for the typical array of Mercedes-Benz technology features, as well as a new AMG sport interior, which includes different seats, a better steering wheel with shift paddles, a new lighting package, and stainless steel pedals. As for powertrains, we expect the standard V6 engines – both petrol and diesel – to be offered. Us? We're secretly crossing our fingers for the return of the R63 AMG.
The successful Mazda crossover, with total sales passing 165,000 units and more than 10 global automobile awards, the 2010 model gets an appealing new facelift.
While the European market will get Mazda’s MZR-CD 2.2 diesel and the 2.2 DOHC turbocharged common-rail diesel, the U.S. market will get a choice of two gasoline options. The first will be a 2.5L MZR 4-cylinder unit that makes 161-hp and a torque of 161 lb-ft. It will be mated to a 5-speed automatic transmission and a front-wheel-drive system. The range-topping will remain the same with a 244-hp MZR 2.3L DISI Turbo 4-cylinder engine.
Final U.S. specs and pricing details are expected to be unveiled at the 2009 New York Auto Show.
