Really like the direction Saab is going with their steering wheels....fresh.

I am really liking two-toned cars more and more...I wish they would do it more in production vehicles.

Nice interior in this concept....not sure if this will be in production:

My Z4 bum:

I was trying to figure where I had seen those tailights. Prius?

The headlights on this concept look slightly odd...not as good as the current Mini.

Just place a outside spare on the back and presto.

The Geely, shown at the Frankfurt Auto Show, is made in China. All it's brands are self-developed. First Chinese auto manufacturer to show their cars independently in 5 of the top auto shows.

Kia Multi-S Crossover concept:

....more photos of the two-door:

Twin turbochargers, 450 hp. 2006 Bentley Azure:

AC Schnitzer Tension, based on the BMW 6-series coupe. Wicked:

The public will lap this up.....I predict this vehicle will be very successful, even though its very bland. Many people like bland.

More and more I see the sliding door disappearing on vans. I wonder if this is a trend for the future of these vehicles? And is it actually a van when it has conventional doors. Do sliding doors on a box shaped vehicle define a van?..I'm just wondering.

Sorry, just this morning, now can't remember the show, it was an automotive panel/talk show format....very interesting. This guy was an absolute GM guy, very critical of GM management and policies, but also very proactive in trying to convince them to improve. He mentioned an interesting website: http://www.generalwatch.com/mission.cfm

Ya, often production vehicles are such a let down after seeing the concept.

I know fighter planes and a German truck were also named Mustang. Pedal cars were called Mustang.

hey dbeaSST....as always agree....saw the top retailer of Buicks on TV this moring, begging GM for product, like a Buick wagon. He also mentioned needing a Buick coupe. Couldn't agree more.

So, I come into a dealership, the '06 is there in the showroom. I am looking to purchase the '06...the salesman says there is no information available. Am I actually then going to walk over to the '05 and buy it?....I don't think so. It's simple, I will be walking out of the dealership and go to one where they have information on the models they have for sale.

Saab 9-5 interior:

Unveiled at the Frankfurt Auto Show, evidently, for the European market. Interesting use of a name from Ford's past. The Ford Galaxy people carrier.

I am definitely on board...love it.

The Monaro sticks out like a sore thumb...doesn't belong with the Vaushall look.

It has special meaning for me lol....I come from a family of loggers and lumbermen.
