After much discussion about the Lincoln MKS to introduce with a V6 or tuned V6 engine, Ford issued a survey that asked consumers which engine would appear best with the MKS, and the result? Many voted for the V8, opposed to the V6. So now, it appears that reports say that the MKS will be powered by a 315 horsepower V8 in order to compete with rivals.
Addition to the report, there will be the panoramic glass or VistaRoof, as seen on the Ford Edge and upcoming Lincoln vehicles; adaptive LED headlamps, similar to that of the Lexus LS600h; 20-inch wheels which are a first for Lincoln sedans; Bluetooth connectivity; DVD audio; and the Lincoln Mobile Media System, which uses an 8-inch LCD display to handle navigation, audio/entertainment, climate control, and it can also download data such as weather.

It appears that Chrysler will offer $1000 off upon the purchase of the new Sebring for owners of a Toyota Camry, Honda Accord, Ford Fusion, or Nissan Altima owners. This plan is an effort to make the owners part ways with their current vehicle and explore the world of Chrysler. The offer only lasts until the last day of November. Once you go Chrysler, you can never go back?

Okay, so I was really lazy and didn’t put up any wallpapers of this concept when it was unveiled. But let me make it up to you. I found a video of the Chevrolet WTCC Ultra on the Estoril track in Portugal. Enjoy it. Ah, yes, I like the sound of cars zooming by. 
Note: The video may take a few minutes to load.

Okay. After much controversy in the World’s Most Beautiful Automobiles post, I must first say that I did not create that list. I repeat, did not. That list was messed up anyways. So I have created my own little list for those who care to listen.
The list contains vehicles that you can find on the dealer lots today, not vehicles that are about to be introduced, so not to cause any controversy.

I’ve uploaded the full brochure featuring the upcoming G35 Sedan, courtesy of Infiniti. Although it’s short, it’s certainly a must-read for all G35 enthusiasts, including myself. I must say, the new redesign is quite stunning. More impressive is the interior, featuring the latest navigation system from Infiniti. I want one so bad! 
Enjoy.

Rumors has it that a hybrid version of the CR-V is in development, opposed to the reports made by other websites that it will not be introduced. This is confirmed solely on the design of the front bumper, which is similar to that of the Lexus RX400h, which allows cooling of the batteries located in the rear. Sources tell us that we can expect to see the introduction of the CR-V hybrid in early 2008 when sales of the CR-V increase and the popularity of the hybrid system is in order. Although this is not confirmed, the hybrid version of the Fit is a go.
