Mazda has been contemplating about revising their sports car strategy after getting feedback that the current version of the MX-5 is too heavy to fulfill its original ethos.

The new MX-5 is a good candidate for the Nagare design lines inspired by elements from nature like the water and the wind. Mazda was able to produce nice concepts using these design lines back in 2007 and 2006.

The Nagare will be used for the upcoming MX-5 but it will not be used anymore for any concept vehicles. Mazda will implement their next design language come autumn.

The use of the Nagare lines for the next MX-5 was contested within the company since some felt that the MPV is not deserving of the treatment.

The original plan of the MX-5 has the numbers set to 1,000 kilograms upon development. Mazda still has the same numbers planned for the new Mazda MX 5. The engineers are still trying to figure out the options for the powerplant of the sportscar. It will most likely get the Sky-G type petrol engine with 1.6L and 1.8L variants. The engine will be coupled with a manual transmission with six speeds. Another option will be to pair it with the new dual clutch transmission.

The tuning firm releases the production-ready version for those willing to write a $1,000,000 check and those who want to get their hands behind the wheels cheaper, rarer, and more aggressive than a Bugatti Veyron.

This car is a dream machine with its American V8 powerplant mid-mounted on its Elise architecture beefed up by Garrett turbos so it can whip out 1,200HP and a monstrous torque of 1,135 lb-ft. The engine is coupled with a 6-speed Ricardo gearbox.

The car blasts to 260 mph while revving at 6600 rpm in sixth gear although the speedometer has some space to go to 270 mph. The numbers translates to where-did-that-car-go performance of 0 to 62 mph in just 2.9 seconds.

All corners are supplied with Brembo brakes with 15 inch discs and 6-piston calipers. The drag coefficient of the body is awesome at 0.36 when the rear wing is lowered and 0.43 when raised.

John Hennessey calls this baby the fulfillment of his dream when he was a kid. Indeed.

Watch the clip below and check out this beauty.

This model is the second generation of this particular SUV. It differs from its first generation predecessor in several ways, including the fact that it is lighter, longer, and lower, which all combine to create even better fuel efficiency.

The SUV is an aerodynamic wonder with a design meant to allow for an even lower Cd value.

Another difference is that the Touareg comes with the option of a hybrid drivetrain.

I love the French language.

I love French accents.

I love French decor, French food, French history, the French culture, and French wine.

There are an endless number of things I love about France, but more on the topic here, I love French cars and automakers.

So really, does it come as any surprise that I love not only Citroen in general, but also the new concept, the Survolt, in particular?

Even the picture of this car reeks of power. It is one of those vehicles that you can practically hear purring right through a photograph.

What this means is that there is a fantastic chance for you to get a brand new car from GM and not have to worry about the financing.  This is a sales strategy that I believe is going to certainly work in the benefit of the company.

Not only is it going to bring in more and more business, but it is going to allow people that need a new car to get one.

The 2010 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor has oversold themselves and the most popular color for the 2010 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor?  Well, that is black!  This truck is about $40,000 but still, if you are looking to do a lot of off-roading, the 2010 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor is definitely it.

Just remember that the 2010 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor is limited right now – so if you want one, you better get it fast!

If I am to be completely honest, and as I have probably said before, you could not quite dub me a Ford fanatic. I am not even a Ford aficionado. But I am the first to admit when I have had a change of heart. The 2012 Ford Focus is hot. Even if I never favor another Ford, I have to further admit that this future model definitely tickles my fancy.

It is really a pain to have to wait that long to get a shot at the third generation Focus, which premiered at the recent motor show in Detroit.

One of the concepts slated for show is the Maruti Suzuki Concept R3, courtesy of Maruti Suzuki India Unlimited, which is said to be the leading company in car manufacturing in India.

In fact, the company will be revealing a number of different concepts at the expo. The R3 concept is special because it was created in house. Its theme — togetherness — also makes it special.

Succinctly, the vehicle is designed to be a neater, more compact kind of MPV. It is made to serve the family, to provide transportation that is not as bulky as many SUVs.

One thing that I have noticed though and I am not the only one is that Chris Liddell is looking to run his own company.  Could he be on the track to become CEO of GM?  Doubtful in my mind but it might happen.

Right now, Chris Liddell is the CFO and he needs to succeed at that before he even attempts to become CEO of anything.

If she did buy it herself: learn something about the car you just bought before you hand out interviews pimping it, girl!
