CDC Modified Dodge Challenger car 2010 Model

CDC or Classic Design Concepts is a tuner in Novi, Michigan, USA. They took a Dodge Challenger SRT-8 and added a supercharger which pushes 560 HP! They also installed an adjustable suspension system from PW, exhaust from Pypes Performance and a big brake upgrade by Baer.
CDC has also given the SRT-8 a new body kit which has composite front fenders, rear flares, a stainless front grille, a lightweight aluminum hood with a cold air intake shaker and 20 inch alloys.


RDP Motorsport in Ohio have added their own flavor of modifications to the Dodge Challenger SRT-8 and came up with a Twin Supercharged 440 Stroker which they introduced at the Performance Racing Industry (PRI) Show in Florida. They have added a plethora of modifications, however the majority of it’s 1000hp is thanks to a one of a kind Twin Bullet / RDP Harrop Supercharger system and a nitrous boosting system from Nitrous Express.

2010 BMW 5-Series GT Car

Depending on whether you like the way it looks, BMW's new segment-buster is either a stroke of genius or proof that the company's design department has suffered a collective stroke. The Gran Turismo will hit the market later this year as a 2010 model, likely with twin-turbocharged powerplants-an in-line six for the 535i GT, a V-8 for the 550i GT. The GT is based on the next-generation, F10-chassis 5-series, and it's about as wide and as long as a short-wheelbase 7-series. Sliding rear seats offer the choice between 7-series legroom for two rear passengers or extra luggage space, and a novel hatch allows the cargo area to be accessed like either a hatched wagon or a conventional trunked sedan.

Despite its controversial styling, we think the GT will have tremendous presence on the road thanks to its imposing proportions. And BMW might be on to something-as the world moves away from the eco-guilt of boxy SUVs, this tall sedan/coupe/hatchback might be the body style of the future.

BMW X6 Active Hybrid

A hybrid X6 will go on sale later this year, and unlike BMW's other European-market hybrid systems, this is a full-on, two-mode hybrid that uses technology jointly developed with General Motors, Chrysler, and Mercedes-Benz. BMW promises, however, that the X6 will remain a driver's car despite the practically incomprehensible powertrain dance that a dual-mode system does.

2011 BMW 5-series An all-new 5-series is scheduled to arrive for the 2011 model year with a selection of turbocharged engines and loads of technology features from the 7-series-including BMW's new and vastly improved iDrive. A wagon should debut shortly after the sedan.

2012 BMW 6-series An all-new 6-series luxocoupe, again based on the 5-series, is due for 2012 in both hardtop and convertible form. The ragtop will retain its fabric roof-but not, we hope, the current 6's frumpy styling.

2010 BMW 7-series The 7-series was brand-new for 2009, but it gets a number of fresh additions for '10. A first-ever all-wheel-drive version of BMW's largest sedan arrives this fall. Shortly after comes a mild hybrid, which will use auto start/stop and other technologies to reduce its thirst for fuel. A V-12-powered 7-series is also on the way. Expect it to feature twin turbos and produce monumental power.

2010 Audi A4 Allroad Quattro

For those who hanker for an off-road crossover but don't want a Q5, Audi offers this: the 2010 A4 Allroad Quattro.


You'll likely remember that `Allroad' nameplate from the original 1999 A6 Allroad Quattro, which mixed a number of off-road parts into an otherwise normal A6 wagon. The A4 Allroad is a similar concoction - it's been raised by 37 mm and widened by 20 mm to increase off-road clearance, while new rocker panels and bumper guards help protect the A4 Allroad from debris.

Three engines will initially be offered with two transmissions. The six-speed manual will be available only with the a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel "TDI" I-4. The new seven-speed S-tronic dual-clutch transmission will be available with the both the 2.0-liter turbocharged I-4 and a larger 3.0-liter diesel V-6. The 2.0 TDI puts out 168 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque and the 2.0 TFSI puts out similar torque figures and 208 hp. Opting for the top-of-the-line 3.0 TDI yields 237 hp and 369 lb-ft of torque.



Helping the Allroad gain traction off the road is the latest Quattro all-wheel-drive system, which features a standard 40/60 percent front/rear torque split. The revised Quattro system can send up to 85 percent of its power rearward and up to 65 percent to the front wheels. Traction is constantly monitored by the stability program, which includes special "Offroad Detection" technology to monitor surface consistency and adjust the ESP accordingly.

Although it seems the A4 Allroad Quattro is well suited to travel most places, it won't reach North America - after all, that's a prime market for the all-new Q5...

Acura CSX GraceFul Car 2010 Model Pics And Info

Unlike its forebear, the EL. The Canadian-only Acura CSX never sold well, even Honda Canada has agreed it isn’t as a marketing succeed as all the EL preceding it.

Dynamically speaking, CSX is a very delightful car to drive. Our tester is the mid-level Tech package with manual gearbox. Honda has always been known for building excellent front-driver, which is balanced and agile. Steering is sharp with great feedback. CSX has lived up to its tradition as a very fun-to-drive sports sedan. Its Type-S version would certainly run like a wind. With 155hp and 139 lb/ft of torque pumped out from a 2.0 liter i-VTEC motor, there is plenty of power with both 5-speed manual or manumatic transmissions.


When it comes to use of materials and fit-and-finish, CSX is a notch above Civic which its loosely based on. There are plenty of classy plastic materials with tactical feedback on all switchgears. It also feels spacious inside with comfortable leather seats abound.


The biggest problem with CSX is its priced too close to the Accord. There isn’t any market as price-conscious as Canadian market, regardless of how small it is. But consumers are simply flocking to lesser Civic with 1.8 liter or to larger Accord instead of going to Acura showroom. In terms of execution, Acura has done a wonderful job with the CSX. All the conceptable areas are so much better than all the ELs have gone before. But its the market positioning that has killed this nice little luxury car.

2010 Acura ZDX Grateful Car


One could argue that what Acura needs is a really good-looking sedan rather than a really good-looking crossover, but a four-door crossover coupe is what Honda's luxury division has cooked up. It's the first Acura to have been conceived and executed entirely within the confines of the new Acura studio in Torrance, California, which was split off from the Honda studios in California a few years ago in an effort to imbue future Acuras with their own identity. Judging from the ZDX, this was a worthwhile move on the part of American Honda, because the newest Acura, all sinewy and modern, looks terrific. It also represents by far the most successful use of Acura's double-pentagon grille, although one wonders if Acura will ever have a facial identity that is at once attractive and readily identifiable.

In any case, the ZDX prototype that debuted at the New York auto show is nearly identical to the MDX-based production vehicle that will go on sale this October. Exterior designer Michelle Christensen was inspired by the tension and shape in a slingshot that's about to be fired, and she translated this notion into the shape of the roof structure. Seen from above, the roof rails are wide in front, where they form the A-pillars, and are drawn tightly inward as they are pulled taut at the rear of the vehicle. The ZDX's haunches themselves invoke the flanks of a wide-body Porsche 911, which is not bad company to keep. A full-length, panoramic glass roof will be standard.

"The ZDX is a four-door luxury sports coupe," explains the project leader on the exterior design, Damon Schell. "But it is a celebration of the front passengers. We tried very hard to hide the fact that the rear door is even there, hiding the door handles in the C-pillars." Yet since the ZDX is roughly the size of an Infiniti FX, there's room for three passengers in the rear seats or, when the seats are folded down, a decent amount of cargo. Up front, the ultramodern instrument panel is bisected by a cleaned-up version of Acura's T-shaped center stack and is copiously accented in pearlescent white leather. The MDX's 3.5-liter V-6 and all-wheel drive will be standard.

WEAPONS-GRADE: In addition to a slingshot, Acura designers say they were inspired by the motion of a bullet shot through water - the way the ripples affect all of the surfaces around it - when they drew the ZDX.

Volvo officially introduced its revised C70 convertible earlier today at the Frankfurt Motor Show. Though almost identical to the outgoing model mechanically, the revised C70 features a new, more dramatic look outside and some revisions to the interior.

The 2010 Volvo XC60 is the Swedish car company's first foray into the compact crossover segment—the same niche that includes the BMW X3, Land Rover LR2, Acura RDX, and Infiniti EX35. Happily, the Volvo entry is one of the handsomest of the bunch, comes standard with all-wheel drive and surprising off-road specs, and adds to the brand's reputation for safety with a new twist.
