Sporty Renault Clio S Announced HD Song: Drake – Its Been a Pleasure Enjoy & Comment~! Sales have begun on a new version of the Renault Clio. The Renault Clio S, revived from the early 1990s, is meant to “bring the sporty look and feel to the core Clio range,” according to a press release. Although actually a three-door, the Clio S is based on the 5-door Expression trim. This adds electric windows, heated electric mirrors, CD radio with auxiliary jack, and foglights. Instead of the “Far Away” 15-inch wheels on the Expression, the S uses whited-out 16-inch “Polar” alloys. Seen here in Capsicum Red, the new model adds four color choices to the palette. Buyers may also get the car in Extreme Blue, Glacier White, or Pearl Black. All of the other changes to the car are to increase the visual appeal of the Clio S. Windows and rear glass are tinted darker. At the front they used a new white insert in the front bumper, matching that with white racing stripes along the sides and on the roof. Even bolder stripes are on offer as an option. In back, a “GT” rear spoiler is added on, and also painted in white. Inside, the white console and dashboard inserts are a very nice touch, especially with the matching pattern as seen on the stripes. Whited-out instrument dials were also added. A leather-wrapped steering wheel is included. As expected, the “S” mark has been tattooed on the upholsery. Three engines are available on the car, including the 75- and 100- horsepower 1.2-liter units …

2011 Mercedes-Benz CLS Sports Saloon Snagged Completely Undisguised! HQ Song: Bryan Ingram – Ben’s Song Enjoy & Comment! We were supposed to see the next iteration of the Mercedes-Benz CLS for the first time at this fall’s Paris Motor Show, however, thanks to an eagle-eyed reader of the Brazilian website “Noticiasautomotivas”, we now have pictures of the sporty four-door saloon without a hint of camouflage. Believe it or not, the reader caught the 2011 CLS lurking around the German firm’s Stuttgart Museum. We assume the car was there for a photo shoot. The new CLS blends the “banana shaped” body of the outgoing model with styling elements Mercedes-Benz’s latest cars such as the E-Class Coupe’s heavily shouldered rear wheel arches and the more dramatic front-end design, all previewed on the CLS Shooting Brake Concept. There are no photos of the interior, but don’t expect to see something entirely different the concept study. Like the first-generation CLS, which borrowed its architecture from the E-Class sedan, the new model is based on the mechanicals of the latest version of Merc’s executive sedan and will most likely share similar powertrain choices including a V6 turbo diesel and a V8 petrol. There will also be a flagship AMG model (see spy shots here) powered by Stuttgart’s all-new 5.5-liter bi-turbocharged V8 engine with direct injection technology that puts out 544HP and 590 lb-ft of torque in standard form, and 571HP and 663 lb-ft with the optional performance package.

Fiesta S2000 rally car unveiled HD Song: PANICNEWLOL JFox Enjoy & Comment! This is the new Ford Fiesta S2000 rally car, which was unveiled today. The car, driven by WRC driver Matthew Wilson, will make its public debut as course car on the Rally of Scotland, which gets underway from Perth on Thursday night. The 1200kg car is powered by a 280bhp 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine that has peak power at 8000rpm. It also has 192lb ft of torque at 6500rpm. However, its future competition plans are unclear. Although it is eligible for outright honours in the Intercontinental Rally Challenge and class honours in the WRC next year, Ford has no plans to run works cars. Instead, it will continue to campaign Ford Focus WRCs in the WRC, offering the S2000 car to customers. The car has been built by M-Sport, which also builds Ford’s WRC cars. M-Sport chief Matthew Wilson said: “Today is a very exciting day for us. This is the first global rally car for Ford and M-Sport. “I really believe that we have produced a fantastic rally car and this launch is a big step to seeing it out competing in rallies. It’s the first time in five years that we have been able to offer a Ford rally car that can challenge for overall victory in national championships across the world. “It is also the culmination of a huge amount of hard work not only by Christian Loriaux and his team, but by everyone who works at M-Sport.

2013 New Honda S2000 Concept Rendered plans Revealed HQ Song: Diggy Simmons – Class Introduction Instrumental Enjoy & Comment! Honda is preparing a dramatic return to sports cars with a small mid-engined, rear-drive successor to the Honda S2000 – and it’s likely to be a hybrid. The car is believed to be a cross between the S2000 roadster, phased out last year, and the original Honda Beat mini-car of 1991. Engineers are said to be working on the car at Honda’s R&D centre at Tochigi, north of Tokyo. Honda’s design chief, Nobuki Ebisawa, hinted to Autocar late last year that, despite the decision to axe its F1 team and cancel the next-generation NSX, there was a long-term plan to develop a hybrid with greater performance than Honda’s only remaining sporty model, the CR-Z. “That car is only one shape of Honda’s hybrid sports cars in the current age,” he said. Proof that the project has since been picked up has emerged in Japanese patent applications. They outline plans for a roadster using a subframe and parts from current cars but adding technology, reducing the kerb weight and cutting production costs. This points to the use of aluminium, a material that Ebisawa has admitted is a likely feature of future models. The car is expected to be based on a modified version of the Jazz platform. The patent refers to “an engine being fitted to a centre frame”, which means mid-engined and rear-wheel drive. The patent does not outline what type of powerplant would be used, but Honda’s …
