Jalopnik got it wrong. I like those guys, they really have a nice blog, but they got it wrong this time. They said that this (above) is the first four door version of the upcoming MK VI GTI. Well actually it’s not. Volkswagen introduced at the Paris Motor Show a 2 door version and a 4 door version of this car as well. The 2 door version was a white car, and the four door version was blue, exactly like this one.
Want some proof? Check out the Paris Motor Show photos on my other car blog by clicking HERE.
Don’t worry guys, it happens to the best of us.

We humans have a tendency to like monkeys. Maybe because they remind us of our great great grandfather, or maybe just because they’re fun, I really don’t know, but we love them. We like them when they sneeze and we like them when they become our trunk monkeys. I’m sure you all saw this funny Catrol commercial during the Super Bowl right?

I’m back. Had a bunch of exams on my head so I couldn’t write for a while, but like the Superbowl, that’s over. Not much has happened this past few weeks. The financial crisis still persists and the automakers still throw away money like the own them.

The mighty Range Rover Vs a Fiat Panda 4×4 sounds stupid, or does it? I’ve been willing to show you this, but I just didn’t have the time. When I saw this at Fifth Gear about a year or two ago it blew my mind. Seeing this video it all makes sense, I understand why James May bought a Fiat Panda 4×4.
Name a car that can run on a 50% sloap and with ease…check out the video below and see how a Fiat Panda 4×4 performs compared to a Range Rover:

This is the brand new Honda Insight Toyota Prius. Sorry sometimes I get these two confused, I’m not sure why, but I do. We all know the Toyota Prius, but what really interests us is the consumption ratio right? Well it gets a 50 mpg combined consumption ratio. It got a bigger 1.8 engine that provides you 98 polluting hp and with the hybrid system on the car has a total of 134 hp.
The car will be available starting with this spring. It has a new design, if you can say that. You get more room on the backseat and it even has a solar roof that power the air con system if the car sits in the sun, so you get less power usage.

Fisker Karma is the car of the moment. Everybody wants to have one, and why shouldn’t they? It’s gorgeous. Fisker really hit the jackpot with this one, they made a hybrid car that sits on 22″ alloy wheel and can hit 0-60 mph in 5.8 seconds and cruise gently at 125 mph. All this with two 201 hp engines connected to some Li-ion batteries and a gasoline engine that usese it’s 260 hp to charge the batteries. That’s not bad for an electric car, Tesla eat your heart out.
Fisker wants to have 40 dealers until the end of the year. They will produce 15,000 car per year and already pre sold 1,300 cars to some lucky buyers. The price of a Fisker Karma is only $87,000 dollars. Not bad for a car that is loads of fun, looks great and saves the planet in the same time.

The Lincoln MKS gets a new V6 ecoboost engine. The first two models which got that engine were the Lincoln MKT and the Flex CUV. The twin turbo V6 gives out 355 bhp and it’s paired up with a six speed automatic transmission. I thought the reason they made the ecoboost engine was to get better power and better fuel efficiency, they got the power, but where’s the fuel efficiency?
It’s consumption rate is 15 mpg city and 25 mpg highway, am I the only one who thinks that’s really bad? I understand that’s nice to get 19″ alloy wheels, HID headlamps, rain sensors, paddle shifters, push button start and and rear window power sunshade, but we have to think about consumption people, focus!

There’s nothing wrong in showing your affection towards the president but this is ridiculous. This isn’t love, this is sucking up, and GM are really good at doing so. They scheduled a press conference and all they brought were some Saturn hybrids and a a guy and a woman holding up a board saying: “CHANGE: Thanks to you, the word is no longer a cliché. Congratulations President Obama From Saturn and a few of our friends.”
Come on people, save it after they grant you the loan.

Try saying that 3 times really quick. This is the Quattroporte that should blow your mind or twist your tongue. Maserati said that this Maserati will be another milestone in the sport luxury sedan segment. I think this car doesn’t really have any use. It only has 8 hp more than the regular model, and those 433 hp come at 7000 rpm while the rev limiter is set at 7200 rpm.
Don’t get me wrong, it looks perfect, but while pay extra some some minor design improvements and perforated leather interior. But the Quattroporte model and you’ll get more fun with the same V8, but more sporty.
