28 Feb 09 Convertible Works Mini John Cooper

“The ultra high-performing convertible of the John Cooper edition is powered by an engine configuration of 1.6-liter, four –cylinder unit that is made complete with turbocharger that looks like a twin scroll. It is also revved up with direct fuel injection. The convertible also produces a generous amount of 208 horsepower smoothly from 1,850 to 5,600 rpm. It can also reach a torque with its peak of 192 pound-feet that can elevate shortly while at the Overboost mode to 207 pound-feet.”

This Works Mini John Cooper Convertible is so hot it actually makes me want to drive a Mini (and I’m NOT a Mini fan AT ALL).

21 Feb 09 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe R-Spec

Is this 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe R-Spec supersexy, or isn’t it?

I’m not a real Hyundai-craver, and I wouldn’t say Hyundai’s can be called dream cars too often, but this Genesis version of the Hyundai Coupe really is qualified for the dream car label in my book…

I’d drive one, even though it’s a Hyundai.
