For the last 10 years Peugeot only focused on delivering nice looking cars that will do well for your daily commuting. Well folks it looks like they’re getting back to it, as we’re just hearing that the French manufacturer just took the wraps off of the new Peugeot 308 GTi. The new model runs on the same engine as the RCZ Coupe, the 1.6 liter THP (turbocharged direct-injection) mated to a 6-speed manual gearbox. Which helps the new Peugeot 308 GTi sprints from 0 to 100km/h in 7.7 seconds.

On the outside there aren’t many changes, at least not ones that we could find easily. There are 18-inch wheels, a rear spoiler,  a lowered rear bumper with a stylishdiffuser, dual  chrome exhaust pipes and a carbon-style insert beneath the front  bumper.

Like it? The 2010 Peugeot 308 GTi should launch on June 10 in France with a base price of €26,900. [via DeviceMAG]

The new Lexus IS250C is the second coupe-convertible that the brand has added to their stylish range of luxury vehicles. Shares the headlights, bonnet, door handles, and exterior mirrors with its sedan version, the IS250C has the fastest operating three-piece folding hardtop as well as the greatest amount of luggage space offered by any of its competitors in the market.

Crafted on the L-finesse design characteristics of the IS sedan, the new Lexus IS250C gets the eye with the front overhang which has been enlarged by 15mm to perk up the aerodynamic competence when driving with the top down. Speaking of which, the car ships with a lightweight aluminum hard top which utilizes 13 motors and 33 sensors with the roof converting the IS250C from coupe to convertible in a mere 21 seconds.

Specs wise, under the hood there’s the same 2,5-litre V6 and six-speed automatic transmission that outputs 153kW (205 hp) at 6,400rpm and 252Nm of torque at 4,800rpm.

The IS250C comes with a four year/100,000km full maintenance plan and should retail at R550,200.
