Nissan NISMO 370Z to reach U.S. showrooms next summer
We showed you images of the Nissan NISMO 370Z last month, but reports are now coming in that the souped up Z will have a U.S. on-sale date sometime next summer with a European release shortly after. Arriving first will be the Japanese market NISMO 370Z and will feature two distinct S-Tune packages.
As we reported last month, the first package will be called the NISMO S-Tune Aero Package and will include appearance items such as: Front Fascia, Front Lip Spoiler, Side Skirts, Rear Fascia, Rear Spoiler and Nismo Floormats.

Next BMW Z4 spotted with an open top
New Z4 will share its platform with the current 3-series and will also likely get most of the engine variants from there including the 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 from the 335i. Rumor is that the Z4 will also get a diesel engine.
Upcoming Z4 has been inspired by the CS Concept. It has a wider grille giving it a wider overall look.
It will get a soft-top just like the current one. Rumor is that it will also get a fully retractable hard top to better compete with Mercedes-Benz SLK.
2009/2010 Opel/Vauxhall Astra spied (including interior)
Here it is again, the new Astra testing in southern Europe. Rumor is the same car will also be badged as Saturn and Holden in addition to Opel and Vauxhall. Looking at the photos and the teaser Opel sent it seems that the new Astra will be getting daytime LEDs. We brought you first spy photos of the new Astra back in May. Why are they still testing the same car almost four months later is hard to understand.
In addition to the 5-door model pictured, the Astra lineup will get an estate(Caravan by Opel), convertible, and a 3-door called GTC. We should see the new Astra at next years Frankfurt Motors show.
Mercedes gives a hint how the new E-Class front-end will look
Just few days ago, we brought you spy photos of Mika Häkkinen test driving the next Mercedes-Benz E-Class. From the photos we gotta a pretty good idea how the front end and the whole car will look compared to the current E-Class.
Now Mercedes-Benz has revealed photos of the conceptFASCINATION that is based on the upcoming E-Class Coupe’s architecture and features the new E-Class’s front-end styling. Mercedes will present the concept at the Paris Motor Show next month.
2010 Ford Mustang teasers
Just a few days ago 2010 Mustang was spotted(more like shown by Ford) wearing heavy camouglage and a sticker on the windshield that said: the2010mustang.com is alive.
Before that Ford revealed us the new badge for the 2010 Mustang that is more dynamic and stronger. Also we have brought you the video featuring camouflaged 2010 Ford Mustang at the Kohler International Challenge vintage race.
Spied: Mika Häkkinen & Klaus Ludwig testing 2009 E-Class
M. Schumacher has been testing different Ferrari models and now it seems that Klaus Ludwig the old german Touring Car Champion is testing the upcoming Mercedes-Benz E-Class with Formula 1 star Mika Häkkinen. Not a bad job for a “retired” race car driver.
Today ex formula 1 driver Mika Häkkinen drove with a copilot and instructor Klaus Ludwig the new Mercedes Benz E-Class prototype around the Nürburgring. It’s not possible to get any sound on the photos, but the sound was just awesome and there has to be a powerful AMG under the hood.
Porsche Cayman facelift in the works?
The Porsche Cayman (type 987) was first introduced in 2005 at the Frankfurt Motor Show. What we have here is a Porsche Cayman test mule that has bigger wheel cases.
We are not sure is this a test mule for the next generation Cayman or just a facelift. Most likely a facelift as the current model has been on sale less than three years.
Click here to see the Cayman with bigger wheel cases spotted earlier today
2010 Toyota Prius spied
Toyota is testing the third generation Prius. Photos we managed to get are not in best quality as the car was too far and there was no way to get closer.
What we can already tell that Toyota stais true to the current shape. Rumor is though that the car is little wider and shorter than the current Prius.
Ford shows 2010 Mustang again with heavy disguise
Yes shows not as usually when spy photographers work hard to get the new car prototypes pictured. This is not the first time Ford shows new Mustang to the public. They showed 2010 Mustang in a heavy disguise at Road america weekend.
Now camouflaged 2010 Mustang prototype has been spotted with a sticker on the car’s windshield that says: the2010mustang.com is alive. We have never seen anything like it. Car that is heavily disguised promotes itself. Strange marketing.
Official images and information will be available in late November at the Los Angeles Motor Show.
2010 Mercedes-Benz S-Class spied again
Less than a month ago we brought you first pictures of the S-Class facelift (including interior). This time we can see the front lights and rear LED lights in daylight driving and while the car is parked.
Still no information on the engine changes, but we ll go over all the exterior changes we can see. Car gets new front and rear bumpers, new side mirrors (we expect them to be similar with the ones on new GL Class), rear LED lights. Also daylights are most likely LED. Grille is changed and more in a v-shape. Flashers are moved to the bottom when comparing to the current S-Class.
More spy shots: Mercedes-Benz GL facelift
Yesterday we brought you the first photos of the Mercedes-Benz GL facelift. Our photographer managed to get only rear and side view shots.
Today we have little more to show. Front lights have a new form. We are pretty sure that the lights are LED. Mirrors are changed with a new style blinkers. No information on engine lineup yet, but we are working on it. Stay tuned!

2010 BMW X3 spied again
BMW is testing the next X3 with the worst(it is just so annoying and probably works for BMW hiding all the little details) camouflage we have seen in a while(Audi gets the first place with its A7 prototype that was covered with a huge cloth). The car looks quit similar to the current X3. Main changes will are most likely the grill and new rear and head lights.
Rumor is that the new X3 gets two new engines. New 3.0-liter I-6 turbodiesel engine in conjunction with the dual-clutch transmission. And a new 3.0-liter turbo L6 gasoline engine producing 326hp.
Another Kia Ceed Plus spied in white color
Another day, another location and the same car. Kia Ceed Plus spied again wearing heavy camouflage showing us the white paint job. This time the car also has custom wheels and the grill has more camouflage. Rest of the camouflage seems to be the same as on the one spotted yesterday.
Definetely the lime green Kia Ceed spotted yesterday looked a lot better even though it had the cheapest rims available.
2010 Chevy Beat spotted again
Las week we brought you fresh pictures of the Chevy Beat Prototype including the interior shot. It seems that GM is taking the new car very seriously and testing it in various locations.
It has a similar disguise, but new picture set from a different angle hopefully gives you a better look at the new small car by GM.
Ford Mustang gets a new pony emblem for 2010 models
Curious about what the 2010 Ford Mustang looks like? So far Ford has shown us only the camouflaged 2010 Ford Mustang. According to Ford its new pony badge offers a clue. Like the upcoming restyled Mustang, the new pony is more defined, more muscular and sure to catch the eye of Mustang enthusiasts.
A stronger, more dynamic pony badge with defined edges and crisper forms in a subtly toned tinted-chrome finish will charge across the grilles of the V-6 and GT versions of the 2010 Mustang.
