2007 Jeep TrailHawk Concept
January 4th, 2007
This year’s Jeep concept is called the Trailhawk. Based on the Wrangler Unlimited framework, important tidbits of information are that it’s powered by a V-6 turbo-diesel; the cargo area is roofless with a fold down tailgate and sliding load floor drawer; and it has an ipod compatible sound system nestled in the bed. The Trailhawk has an aggressive look, especially when you’re locking eyes with its menacing front fascia.
Jeep says the Trailhawk Concept “merges the spectrum of the brand by combining the core features of the new body-on-frame Jeep Wrangler with the refined sophistication of the unibody Jeep Grand Cherokee.” We think it looks great and we’d take one over a Liberty, a Grand Cherokee, or a Commander or maybe all three.
2007 Chrysler Nassau Concept
December 30th, 2006
The 2007 Chrylser Nassau concept car will be shown for the very first time at the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit this January. Chrysler stated that the Nassau four-door concept is a four-door luxury “coupe” that has an emphasis on driving dynamics.
The styling cues on the exterior are indications of themes the company is exploring for future vehicles, it adds, and notes that the concept “highlights sweeping curves to define the front and rear fasciae.”
2005 Corvette C6-R
November 13th, 2006
The brand-new Corvette C6-R race car debuted at the 12 Hours of Sebring in March 2005 after a full year of rigorous testing and development. The two-car, factory-backed Chevrolet sports car program competed in the production-based GT1 class (formerly GTS) of American Le Mans Series as well as the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans in France, a race where the Corvette has won its class for three out of the past four years.
The new race car is the most technically advanced sports car ever developed by General Motors, culling years of experience from the dominant Corvette C5-R as well as the advancements brought forth from the next-generation Corvette C6 and Z06 production models.
