2008 Rolls-Royce Coupe
(motorsport) Like the 2004 concept, the 101EX is built using the same aluminum spaceframe construction as the Phantom limousine and is powered by the Phantom's 6.75-liter V-12 engine. It also shares the 100EX's stunning, machined-aluminum hood, which links the A-pillars, windshield header, and traditional Rolls grille into one incredibly solid mass of metal. Th

2008 Porsche 911 GT2
(motorsport) The GT2 will be even quicker and lighter than the blisteringly fast 911 Turbo, but--unlike that all-wheel-drive model--it will power only the rear wheels. The GT2's twin-turbocharged flat six should make more than 530 hp, good for a top speed in excess of 200 mph. The GT2 arrives in late 2007.

2008 Rolls-Royce Corniche Convertible
(motorsport) The heir to the Corniche tradition, this four-place convertible will be powered by the same 6.7-liter V-12 found in the plutocrat-tastic Phantom. It will also share that car's basic aluminum spaceframe architecture. Even in his heyday, Vanilla Ice would have had trouble affording this beast--the estimated price will be somewhere between $400,000

2008 Pontiac G6 GXP
(motorsport) This coupe is the second G6 GXP show car--the first was a sedan shown at the 2004 SEMA show. Sitting nearly an inch lower than a standard G6, this version sports a ram-air fed, 270-hp, 3.9-liter V-6 mated to a six-speed manual. Inside, Pontiac has added red chrome trim and red leather inserts for the seats and door panels. Exterior bolt-ons include

2008 Nissan Cube
(motorsport) The current Japanese-market Cube (below) won't come here, but the next-generation model probably will. Nissan has made it clear that the Versa will not be the only subcompact car it sells in America, and the company surely is looking enviously at the street cred earned by the Scion xB, another minimalist box on wheels. The Cube arrives in 2008.

2008 Nissan Skyline GT-R
(motorsport) Nissan gave the world a big glimpse of its keenly anticipated 2008 Skyline GT-R with this carefully constructed show car. The GT-R PROTO is not a near-production model, though, as the interior is just a blank black panel, and Nissan is providing absolutely no details on the powertrain, suspension, or other critical technical details. Nissan wants t

2008 Nissan Altima Coupe
(motorsport) Honda and Toyota sell coupe versions of the Accord and the Camry (although Toyota obfuscates that by calling theirs the Solara), so naturally Nissan is adding a two-door variant to its new Altima lineup. Shorter and shapelier than the four-door Altima, the coupe will use the same 2.5-liter four and 3.5-liter V-6 engines, either of which can be pair

2008 BMW 3-Series Convertible
(motorsport) The long-awaited convertible version of BMW's current 3-series will sport its first hardtop. Powerplants and badges will mirror those of its fixed-roof coupe sibling: the 328i will use a 230-hp, 3.0-liter I-6, and the 335i gets a 300-hp, twin-turbo version of the same engine. The convertible unfortunately weighs 400 pounds more than the coupe, but

2007 Acura Advanced Sports Car Concept - NSX
(motorsport) Acura is remaining hush-hush about the coupe you see here in sketch form, saying only that it "provides a glimpse at the next generation Acura exotic sports car." In car-freak speak, that translates to just three letters-NSX. Yes, with this concept, Acura is renewing our excitement for a next-generation NSX after the 2003 HSC concept fizzled out an

Mercedes-Benz Vision GL420 Bluetec
(motorsport) While Japanese automakers seem to think gas-electric hybrid engines are the fuel-saving technology of choice, European manufacturers have stayed loyal to diesels. Diesel is popular in the Old World, as it gets around 30 percent better mileage than conventional gas. Unfortunately, it also has a reputation for sooty, particulate-filled exhaust. That' |
