Widebody Kit for W204 C-Class by Expression Motorsport

Belgian Mercedes tuner Expression Motorsports have put together a DTM inspired wide body package for the new W204 C-Class. Larger air vents in the bumper and hood enhance engine cooling while the widebody kit allows for the larger wheels up to 22-inch to be fitted. The kit consists of front bumper fascia with fog lamps and LED indicators, front carbon fiber lower lip spoiler, hood from C 63 AMG, hood vents, 10 piece fender flair set, side skirts, rear bumper fascia with carbon fiber diffuser and integrated LED F1 brake light and deck lid wing plus additional carbon deflector. Finally, a double twin-tip exhaust system along with an assortment of wheel packages round out the kit which Expression Motorsports refers to as their EX C Motorsport kit.

TECHART Aerokit I for Porsche 911, model year 2009

The TECHART Aerokit I for the new Porsche 911 models.

Only genuine TECHART individualisation programmes are defined by the typical TECHART features. Aesthetic and technical. Visible and invisible. One of these is a basic principle of all TECHART products: quality original equipment manufacture.

The new TECHART Aerokit I for the new Porsche 911 model is characterised by its unrivalled exterior design and its inner values: optimal aerodynamic values, confirmed by wind tunnel tests and high quality polyurethane RIM throughout. And, of course, all produced at the company’s manufacturing site in Germany.

TECHART is presenting its programme for the new Porsche 911 models at the Essen Motor Show from 28 November to 7 December 2008.


TECHART Aerokit I for Porsche 911, model year 2009

Vehicles fitted with the TECHART Aerokit I demonstrate a passion for perfection, even at first glance. The result of development work and wind tunnel tests: a sporty and elegant appearance typical of TECHART as well as optimal driving stability thanks to reduced buoyant forces and balanced aerodynamics on the front and back axels.

The new front spoiler I emphasises the dynamics of the new 911, reduces buoyant forces on the front axle and ensures optimal air flow for the effective cooling of the brakes. The air inlets on the front of the vehicle also come with new decorative features. Sill panels emphasise the vehicle’s strong side lines.


A roof spoiler and three different types of rear wing enable precise aerodynamic adjustments to the back axel. The elegant rear wing I, the sporty rear wing III with its fixed wing profile and the variable rear wing IV with integrated back pressure air channels and additional adjustable gurney flap.


The newly designed decorative trims for the exterior mirror – varnished, in carbon fibre or a new chrome finish – as well as headlight trims, TECHART light-metal wheels, striking sports exhaust in a typical double-oval design and individually adapted interior fittings are just some of the options which form part of the comprehensive TECHART individualisation programme for the new 911 models.

Latest Spy Photos:Suzuki Kizashi in Germany

The Kizashi will be Suzuki's first mid-size sedan as the compact carmaker moves its brand upmarket and introduces products into the middle segment of the passenger car market. The mid-size segment is one of the most fiercely competitive in the US market and the Kizashi will go up against best-selling models such as the Toyota Camry, Honda Accord and the Chevy Malibu.


These most recent spy shots of the upcoming Suzuki Kizashi are some of the best seen so far. They provide a pretty good view of the car and you can get an idea of what its final design will be as it gets closer to production. The accompanying photos were taken earlier this week while the Kizashi was undergoing testing in Germany under very light camouflage.


The sedan will come with a 2.5 liter/150 hp 4 cylinder engine and a meatier 3.6 liter V6 with about 300 hp coupled with a 6-speed automatic transmission.


Suzuki has announced it will also later produce a wagon and CUV version of the Kizashi. The Kizashi will be built in Sagara, Japan, and will be launched in the US in early 2010.

Porsche Boxster en Cayman gefacelift

Het zat er aan te komen; de Porsche Boxster en zijn coupébroeder Cayman zijn gefacelift. Dankzij een oplettende bezoeker kunnen wij ze als eerste tonen.
De eerste afbeeldingen van de Porsche Boxster en Cayman lijken zich te hebben aangediend. Een bezoeker van onze site kwam ze tegen op de car configurator op de website van Porsche.


Vooral de gewijzigde koplampen, die een wat nadrukkelijkere druppelvorm hebben gekregen en de achterlichten, die wat forser van formaat zijn, zijn in het oog springende wijzigingen. Verder heeft de onderbumper aan de voorzijde een wat slanker uiterlijk gekregen en de units waarin onder meer de richtingaanwijzers aan de voorzijde zijn ondergebracht, hebben een nieuwe vorm gekregen.


Officiële informatie over de nieuwelingen hebben we nog niet, maar we gaan er vanuit dat motoren met directe brandstofinspuitng na de 911 ook hun opwachting zullen maken in de Boxster en Cayman. Ook Porsche moet namelijk werken aan de CO2-uitstoot van het programma. Ook de PDK-dubbele koppelings-transmissie maakt wellicht zijn opwachting in het nieuwe model.


Met de facelift zijn de Boxster en de Cayman klaar voor de rest van hun levenscyclus. En ze moeten nog een tijdje mee. Pas in 2012 gaat de bij het Finse Valmet gebouwde compacte Porsche uit productie. De Boxster loopt al mee sinds 1996 en loopt tegen die tijd dus zestien jaar mee. In 1999 en in 2002 is de Boxster eerder licht gewijzigd. De Cayman is in 2005 in het programma gekomen en ook toen heeft de Boxster enige wijzigingen ondergaan.

Car News: Mitsuoka Galue S50 Limousine plops onto the scene

Mitsuoka, that tiny Japanese manufacturer who makes the wonderfully wacky Orochi sea monster, has introduced its latest automotive mash-up, just in time to give us a Halloween fright. It is a derivative of the company's Galue III (the return of the shapeshifter) and is known as the Galue Limousine S50.


This shouldn't be confused with the company's Galue 204 Toyota Corolla rebody, or the Galue Convertible, which is based on the Ford Mustang. Instead, this limo is based on the Infiniti M, but incorporates styling touches from such classic designs as the '94 Cadillac Fleetwood, the Rolls-Royce Phantom and the Apple iPhone. While that might not sound too offensive, trust us, it is.


Remember the classic Beetles with the R-R grilles? Imagine that on a new Infiniti M35. And out back, that gracefully curved rear has been amended with Caddy taillight protrusions.


Where once stood a B-pillar, we now have a foot-wide panel that houses an oversized iPhone-like glass panel. Like the retro-classic Excaliburs of the '70s and '80s, Mitsuoka apparently feels people will like modern running gear hidden beneath "classic" British looks.


Priced between 8,016,750 yen (68,600 euros at the exchange) for the 223-hp 250LX to 9,345,000 (80,000 euros) for the 313-hp 350LX 4WD, we think that's a lot of coin for a Frankencar like this. Heck, you could probably find a used Continental GT for about the same. You could even rebadge it as a Hyundai if it makes you feel better.

New Images for Aston Martin One-77

The One-77 was announced just a couple of months ago but has already sold out. Its deep pocket-buyers, who've had to leave a hefty £200,000 deposit to place their orders, will have to wait until late 2009 for their cars to begin coming in.


Dutch automotive
site 925.nl has unearthed new images of the upcoming Aston Martin One-77.

Proving once again how daring supercars can be, the One-77 was announced amid one of the worst slumps in the automotive business in decades with the eye-popping price tag of £1,050,000 or roughly 1.4 million euros.


Aston Martin has limited production to just 77 models, in keeping with true supercar tradition and settling on the obvious number 77, the same one that designates the car.


The car's details are few but the One-77 is expected to come with a 7.3-liter V12 engine
churning out over 700hp. It will also have aluminium body panels and a carbon fibre chassis.
