Speculations have been made about BMW’s development of a full electric Mini to be produced but it has actually been confirmed and a spy shot of the new electric Mini was taken on the streets of Germany. Experts believe this is a test mule of the soon-to-come electric Mini.

Shown in the image on this post is a Hybrid tag that reads “HYBRID Erprobungsfahrzeug” which means “Hybrid vehicle testing”. Now, with knowing that you probably raise the issue of a “Hybrid” as we know it in America is not a full electric car. So what gives? Actually, this very well could mean it is a derivative of two technologies working together. But if you closely look at the image and talk with the photographer that snapped this photo, you will notice the lack of an exhaust pipe. The exhaust is non-existent on this Mini so that leaves us with the conclusion of this actually being a full electric vehicle.

Lets hear from you! What do you think? Think the exhaust is hidden somewhere? Do you think this is the real deal electric Mini Cooper?

In Europe, the station wagon is one of the coolest rides you can buy like the Mercedes E series and BMW 5 series wagons. In North America it’s a whole different story, for some reason the wagon still echoes it’s the ultimate in un-coolness and totally laden with its traumatizing Brady bunch stereotypes. So what is Cadillac going to do with a CTS Wagon?

The 2010 CTS Sport Wagon is changing the way Americans think about the old station wagon. From the front it looks no different than the normal CTS, but when you look at the rear you will see its differences like its 26 LED powered tail lights that extend almost the entire rear end. Every line, every crevice, every nuance has a purpose. It screams speed. It yells high class. And it’s got good fuel economy to boot. And for those planning on packing a lot of stuff into it, it has a whole lot of usable space.

What do  ya think about this?

The internet is known for “INFORMATION” and sometimes that “INFO” is leaked out a bit early such as in the case of the next upcoming Volkswagen Golf “dubbed” the Golf VI. Some sources online will tell you that the new Golf VI will sport a 1.4L TSI, 1.8L TFSI and of course the ever-so-popular 2.0L TFSI engine. Also, they should include the same diesel 1.9L and 2.0L TDI engines as well.

We should expect this new model out late next year for the US. More updates should arise as the official specs and information is released from VW.

For now you can view the images and video that is currently circulating over the internet.

As the Audi TT-RS comes closer and closer to production form, the Audi TT-RS roadster has been spotted. The TT-RS will use a 2.5L twin-turbocharged five-cylinder generating 350 horsepower which is a threat to the Porsche Boxter. Sales of the TT-RS are supposed to be going on some time in mid 2009. What is better though, this or the Porsche Boxter?

Insideline has somewhat confirmed that the new Lexus LF-A will cost a bit over $200,000. Lexus officials stated that the new LF-A will have a number “two” in the beginning of the price tag. We know for sure it aint $20,000 so that only leaves $200,000. This will make the new Lexus LF-A the most expensive Lexus (or Toyota) ever.

Many of us have seen spyshots of the new Lexus “Supercar” on the Nurburgring race circuit sporting a possible sub 7 minute run just about on par with the infamous Nissan GT-R. But at $200,000 shouldn’t this be the car to defy laws of physics. Many will argue that the Nissan GT-R defys some of the laws of physics by just being a big bully in the super-car world that’s half the price. But really, are we comparing a Nissan to a Lexus? How dare us.

At $200,000 this new Lexus LF-A better do some amazing tricks like the one in the movie “Transporter 2” where the Audi does a 360 degree barrel roll and lands back on all fours. Yes, it better be that good. Look at some of the Ferrari’s and Lamborghini’s, that cost upwards of $200K, they all can do that right?

Looks like someone stretched out an image of the new BMW M3 E92 – PHOTOSHOP! 

Our friends at BMWBLOG posted this a couple days ago where one of the readers found this image online. This suspicious image is starting to float around the internet dubbed as a BMW M1 prototype. Could be a photoshop, could be real, only time will tell. We lightened up the image to be a little easier on your eyes.

2008 Dodge Challenger Spy Shots

I picked up a few links to spy shot images of the upcoming Dodge Challenger. I didn’t want to rip all of the other photos found online as various sites are attempting to claim them as their own. Here are a few and also video of the prototype.
