New concept car - Renault Neptun





I received an e-mail from my friend Vitor, with these beautiful pictures of the Renault Neptun, This new concept was designed by Dragos Pop, a Romanian guy, he named this car Neptun, being the God of Sea in the Roman mythology, the lines of this car was inspired in the movements of the sea waves. As you can see in these pictures, this new concept has beautifully lines and is very expressive. I think I will buy one soon........let me dreammmmmm

Super Sport Car




Supercar!! Nice accessories and crome body color. You cannot describe how nice the feeling when you driving it on the road. So cool!Temperature's low and real cold at there, the show schedule is on Friday, January 13th, 9am to 6pm. It is a trade and media day. Only media, affiliates, exhibitors, manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers are allowed to access the car's show.

Toyota FT-HS Concept


The Newport Beach, California-based studio have designed a 2+2 coupe that will measure 170.3 inches in length, 73.2 inches wide and 50.8 inches high, with the engine being visible through a plastic panel mounted on the hood. A retractable roof has been designed to open up the occupants to the elements, by sliding back and then covering the two, rear seats.Although many in the press are christening this as the next Supra, we're still a bit skeptical if such a vehicle would carry the storied moniker. But, considering the anticipated $30,000 price tag, the HSC will certainly fill a niche that has long been neglected in Toyota's lineup.

Jaguar C-XF Concept


Jaguar Cars Limited is a luxury car manufacturer, based at Whitley, Coventry, with two UK production plants at Castle Bromwich, Birmingham and Halewood, Merseyside. It was founded as the Swallow Sidecar Company in Blackpool in 1922, changing to SS Cars Ltd in 1934 in Coventry, and finally becoming Jaguar Cars Ltd in 1945, followed by several subsequent changes of ownership.

Maybach Exelero


The Maybach Exelero is a high-performance sports car designed and built by luxury car manufacturer Maybach, and presented in May 2005 in Berlin, Germany. The 700 hp (SAE) (514 kW) two-seater with a bi-turbo V12 engine is a one-off design commissioned by Fulda Tyres. Fulda is using this car as a reference vehicle to test a new generation of wide tires. The German luxury car manufacturer created the one-off model as a modern interpretation of its legendary streamlined sportscar from the 1930s. There are various allusions to the historical predecessor, which was likewise based on a powerful Maybach automobile, in this case the Maybach SW 38, and was also used by Fulda for tire testing.

Lotus 340R


The 340R is a special edition of the Lotus Elise. Just 340 models were built, and all were sold before they were manufactured. It uses a custom built bodyshell with no roof and no doors. All 340 cars came with a silver and black colour scheme. Special A038R tyres were developed for the 340R in collaboration with Yokohama.
While road-legal in the UK, most of the surviving 340 cars are used for racing, track use, or demonstrations.
340R was first meant to have 340 bhp /Ton but this was not achieved so they instead built 340 cars so the name still stood for something.

Toyota FT-HS


The Toyota FT-HS is a hybrid sports car concept introduced at the 2007 North American International Auto Show. Calty Design Research designed the concept and suggests that it could fill the place of the Toyota Supra.[1] FT-HS stands for Future Toyota Hybrid Sport.[2]
The goal of the rear wheel drive hybrid powertrain is to produce 400 hp (300 kW) and achieve 0-60 mph in around 4 seconds. This is accomplished by combining a 3.5 L V6 and an electric motor in a manner similar to the Lexus GS450h. Unlike the GS (and virtually all other current hybrids), a production version of the FT-HS would make use of a capacitor system designed specifically for quick charging and increased performance.[3] Since the debut of this concept, Toyota has exhibited such technology in the Supra HV-R race car.[4]
The 2+2 vehicle features a unique retractable roof similar to a targa top. The rear seats appear to be unusable when the roof is retracted however.
In spite of the FT-HS being only a concept vehicle, Toyota's desired starting price for such a vehicle is stated to be in the mid $30,000 range.
