Ford Mustang Saleen S281


December 31st, 1969 Under new ownership the company formerly known as Saleen Inc, is now Saleen Performance Vehicles and they just revealed photos ahead of the SEMA debut for their bread and butter model the 2010 Saleen S281. This will be the fifteenth year for the s281 model since it’s introduction in 1996 and it’s probably the most important unveiling this company will have as it’s no longer run by the man who started it. This vehicle debut will set the tone and image for the company moving forward. From the photos released I think the exterior of the S281 looks amazing. They have truly taken the 2010 Mustang design to the next level with the redesign of the front and rear fascias, rear wing, hood and side louvers. The wheels look next generation as does the rear exhaust. Check out the photos and give us your feedback in the comments whether positive or negative.

Porsche











New Porsche supercar concept is directly designed from the designer’s imagination CGI, Emil Baddal. A few months ago, the Iranian artist published an array of design proposals for several sports cars including a BMW, a Ferrari (probably his best work up until now) and a Lamborghini. Baddal did not name the concept nor did he give out any details about the idea behind the creation of the Porsche project car which appears to be what we’d describe as a freestyle design exercise.

BMW Concept

The BMW CS Concept was a concept car displayed by BMW in 2007 at several international motor shows and again in April 2008 at the New York International Auto Show. It is a fastback sedan that features many new innovations for BMW, such as door handles that only come out when sensors detect motion.
It has dimensions slightly bigger than the E65 7-series


Tom Purves, CEO of BMW America, stated that CS Concept could be produced, following positive initial comments in 2007 by BMW dealers. This was followed up in 2008 by an announcement by BMW that the concept goes into production in the form of the BMW Gran Turismo. BMW later cancelled in November 2008 because of financial reasons.

On May 29, 2009, BMW unveiled its 5-series Gran Turismo sportback.

Mazda furai



We won't spend too much time on the Mazda Furai concept. You see, it's a concept for a Le Mans series racecar; that sport has a very niche following in the U.S. What's cool about the Furai is that it's a wild-looking racecar that was designed to actually race.

  • Looks like: Mazda looked at the aquatic world for inspiration
  • Defining characteristics: Swooshing body panels
  • Ridiculous features: A radical departure from racecar looks
  • Chance of being mass-produced: It's a racecar that might
  • show up at major events soon          
    This concept can navigate a track at racing speeds, and the design is even functional for aerodynamics. The engine is a rotary one, like the one in the RX-8.
                                        

Camaro




The Chevrolet Camaro is an automobile manufactured by General Motors under the Chevrolet brand, classified as a pony carand some versions also as a muscle car. It went on sale on September 29, 1966, for the 1967 model year and was designed as a competing model to the Ford Mustang. The car shared its platform and major components with the Pontiac Firebird, also introduced for 1967.
Four distinct generations of the Camaro were developed before production ended in 2002. The nameplate was revived again on a concept car that evolved into the fifth-generation Camaro; production started on March 16, 2009.

Jensen Interceptor




The Jensen Interceptor was a sporting GT-class car hand-built in the United Kingdom by Jensen Motors between 1966 and 1976. The Interceptor name had been used previously by Jensen for an earlier car made between 1950 and 1957. The car broke with Jensen tradition by having a steel bodyshell instead of glass-reinforced plastic and by having the body designed by an outside firm, Carrozzeria Touring of Italy, rather than the in-house staff. The early bodies were Italian-built, by Vignale, before production by Jensen themselves began – with subtle body modifications – in West

maserati MC12




The Maserati MC12 is a two-seater sports car produced by Italian car maker Maserati to allow a racing variant to compete in the FIA GT Championship. The car entered production in 2004 with 30 cars produced (five of which were not for sale). A further 25 were produced in 2005 making a total of 50 cars available for customers, each of which were pre-sold for 600 000.
Maserati designed and built the car on the chassis of the Enzo Ferrari but the final car has much larger size and a lower drag coefficient.[7] The MC12 is longer, wider and taller and has a sharper nose and smoother curves than the Enzo Ferrari, which has faster acceleration, better braking performance (shorter braking distance) and a higher top speed. The top speed of the Maserati MC12 is 330 kilometres per hour (205 mph) whereas the top speed of the Enzo Ferrari is 350 kilometres per hour (217.5 mph).
The MC12 was developed to signal Maserati's return to racing after 37 years. The road version was produced to homologate the race version. One requirement for participation in the FIA GT is the production of at least 25 road cars. Three GT1 race cars were entered into the FIA GT with great success. Maserati began racing the MC12 in the FIA GT toward the end of the 2004 season, winning the race held at the Zhuhai International Circuit. The racing MC12s were entered into the American Le Mans Series races in 2005 but exceeded the size restrictions and consequently paid weight penalties due to excess range
