| New leaked images of the upcoming Mercedes SLS AMG Gullwing Posted: 13 Jul 2009 05:15 PM PDT  German magazine Autobild has unveiled a new set of official images leaked on the web of the new Mercedes supercar, the SLS AMG Gullwing. These photos show the new uber-Merc undisguised from almost every angle, including a small glimpse of the car’s interior. However, Mercedes has already showed official images with the interior, so we can say the car is basically completely unveiled and we know what to expect in September at the Frankfurt Motor Show when the car is scheduled to make its official debut. I don’t know about you, but the car, which is a modern interpretation of the 1954 Mercedes 300 SL looks absolutely amazing and I can’t wait for September to get to the auto show and see it live. And I also have a feeling it will also be a blast to drive, because under the hood there’ll be a large 6.2 liter V8 engine which will deliver 571 hp (420 kW) and 650 Nm (479 lb-ft) of torque, enough to take the SLS from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.8 seconds and up to a top speed of 315 km/h (196 mph).

| First images of the 2010 Kia Cee’d facelift show up Posted: 13 Jul 2009 04:25 PM PDT  One of the best selling cars in Europe, the Kia Cee’d has been around for some time now, so the Korean car maker decided to give the Cee’d range a fresh look, which will be first seen at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September. From what we can see in this first official photo, the car’s front part has been almost completely redesigned, with restyled headlights, new front grille and new front bumper with new rectangular foglights. The restyling was performed under the guidance of Kia’s Chief Design Officer Peter Schreyer and will include all the models in the Cee’d range: the 5-door version, the Sporty Wagon and the 3-door pro_cee’d.

| VW Golf VI GTI gets ABT package Posted: 13 Jul 2009 06:53 AM PDT  German tuner ABT Sportsline has announced its new performance upgrades for the Volkswagen Golf VI GTI, which includes new bodykit alongside with a series of engine and other mechanical upgrades. Under the hood, by using optimized engine management (ABT POWER) ABT has managed to squeeze 50 more hp from the engine, taking it from 210 hp (154 kW) up to 260 hp (191 kW). And that’s not all, because ABT also offers the ABT POWER S package, which includes a turbocharger and takes the Golf VI GTI up to 300 hp (221 kW). With the POWER S kit, the car accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in around six seconds. To ensure a more sporty and safe driving, the German tuner also fitted the GTI with ABT chassis springs (the car’s center of gravity is lowered by 30 mm) and a powerful ABT braking system. Another highlight of the package is the body kit, which makes the car’s look a lot more aggressive and also improves its aerodynamics. It includes new front apron, front lip, front grille and ABT daytime running lamps, new rear spoiler and rear apron and diagonal 4-pipe exhaust system. The final touch is given by the carbon steel grey metallic paintwork, which looks very, very good. Of course, ABT also offers a range of interior upgrades which further improve the car’s sporty feeling. Full Photo Gallery: VW Golf VI GTI tuning by ABT
