SEMA Show 2009 in action
At the SEMA show 2009 recently, this new car was revealed. It looked marvelous and we have no other words for it as of now. Wonder how much will this baby cost. Meanwhile it feels good to just look at it. Until Bentley releases it themselves, we will have more details on this baby.

Saab still struggling to find a new home

Saab still struggling to find a new home
We all know the Saab Saga. They find a new buyer (Koenigsegg) then it turns out it wasn’t even close to that and now it’s unhappy time again at Saab as their manufacturers struggle to find a way to their bankrupted situation.

Now, rumor has it that there are more who seem to be interested in taking the wings of this company, one of them, Chinese-made, Beijing Automotive Industry Holdings (BAIC). Let’s all wait and see whether or not this deal will have a happy ending or just fall right through. For the sake of the economy, I hope it’s a happy ending.

Releases from Audi

Four new vehicles are expected from Audi next year. These lucky cars namely Audi A8, Audi A1, Audi A7 and Audi A6 will be launched and released at different times until late next year. On top of that, Audi is taking measures, just like other car manufacturers, to make their vehicles greener (as Al-Gore would say it) but their CEO insists Audi shouldn’t be known as a green brand. We couldn’t agree more.

Alfa Romeo Milano no longer Milano

Alfa Romeo Milano no longer Milano
We heard something about the Alfa Romeo people renaming their upcoming release after being threatened by former employees. This new change has come just days before the launch of their new vehicle. It was originally to be named Milano after Milan but since relationship soured with the Milan people particularly for those who were working with them, AR has no choice but to change it back to one of its own, ‘Giulietta’.
