I got bored and started looking around to see if there was any word for US pricing for the Fiat 500s yet, anyone know anything? I haven't found anything concrete in my five seconds of googling.

I just saw the most amazing battle at Sears Point today, it was a Porsche 906 being absolutely harassed by a lowly Mk.1 Lotus 7. The Lotus was absolutely on the Porsche's rear end the entire time, and only by being 3 lanes wide did the Porsche keep him behind him. The solution isn't more power. It's less weight

I found a few articles all related to each other through Jalopnik about the new Lamborghini V12 coming out. http://jalopnik.com/5690504/hear-the-new-lamborghini-v12-in-action http://jalopnik.com/5690136/i-am-lamborghinis-new-beating-v12-heart http://jalopnik.com/5690495/a-farewell-to-the-old-lamborghini-v12?skyline=true&s=i Simply amazing that their last V12 lasted from 1963 to 2010. quote:We told you this weekend Lamborghini's Murcielago replacement will feature a 6.5-liter V12 engine with an output of 700hp at 8,250 RPM and max torque of 509 lb/ft of torque at 5,500 RPM. Here it is. More below. quote:Lamborghini's filed a claim with the U.S. trademark office on the name "Aventador." Some believe it's the new name for the Italian automaker's Murcielago-replacing supercar. Below, what the name means and specifications we expect for this new raging bull.

Why haven't I been seeing updates about the latest priapism from Lamborghini? Click here for the full 1280x782 image. http://blog.caranddriver.com/lamborghini-releases-best-pic-yet-of-aventador-lp700-4/ quote:Just a few weeks out from the Geneva auto show, Lamborghini has given us the clearest look yet at its upcoming V-12 monstercar, which we expect will be called the Aventador LP700-4. The picture shows gaping front and side air inlets, projector headlights, and a prominent strake through the hood’s center. Compared to earlier photos of prototypes, we see a more-defined and angular front end—it’s definitely reminiscent of the fighter-jet-cool Reventón.

What in gods name kind of trucks do you deal with that those are considered small?

# ¿ Feb 17, 2011 06:14 |

Well they're not new cars so they really don't count for this thread, but Rangers, Mighty Maxes, pretty much any actual, you know, small truck. I wouldn't have been caught off guard if you had used pretty much anything other than small to describe how ludicrously large new trucks are getting. Not trying to start a debate over why we've effectively killed the tiny truck market in America but come on, in no way shape or form are any of those anywhere close to being a small truck. Hell, the bed on the new F150 is practically up to my chest.

Ideas what it could have been? Never seen anything like it since.

Completely ignoring speed claims or horsepower claims, my biggest concern would be hooking up with anything even remotely close to being considered a streetable tire.

Saw my first Aventador in the wild yesterday. Posting here since I didn't manage to take a picture and it still counts as a new vehicle. I must say, for as much as people complain that it's not a new vehicle and looks phoned in, Murcielago 2.0 basically, it still cuts an absolutely stunning figure in real life and god drat that exhaust

coolskillrex remix posted:A mustang GT is about 100 pounds heavier than a stock genesis v6 coupe and is a far far better starting point. Plus theres about 10 superchargers and turbo chargers out there for someone to buy at this very moment. That and Mustang fanboys just can't seem to grasp that not everyone wants a Mustang, for whatever reason.

coolskillrex remix posted:basically if i said nothing about mustangs you agree that the figures are unimpressive. HP to HP it really sounds very similar, V6 to V6 and supercharged V6 to V8. Weight is slightly different but negligible, and like I said some people just flat out don't want a Mustang. The only reason the Mustang 'is a better starting point' is because it's had what, nearly 50 years of being marketed and refined to the Genesis's how many? E: I guess the point I'm trying to make is "get a mustang" is becoming the new "get a Miata," regardless of what the person wants or likes.

Production of the 300bhp hatch is drawing to a close, but these latest releases are here to make sure it doesn't go quietly. and http://www.autoblog.com/2011/09/13/maserati-kubang-frankfurt-2011/ quote:Nothing else is yet known about the Kubang, but we'd expect it to borrow liberally from the Jeep parts bin, and there have been many indications that it will likely even roll down the same assembly line in Detroit as the Grand Cherokee. In any case, have a good look at the Kubang in all its somewhat funky glory in our high-res gallery of live images, and feel free to peruse the press release after the break.

Counterpoint, it's the first time I've felt excitement over a Chrysler product in I don't know how long because cars need cool names like the Demon, RoadRunner, and Valiant. Not the Mercelexiniti GQEX42069. It's a sign things are moving back to where they belong.
