			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The first official pictures of the GTC Paris concept, which previews the new Astra OPC/VXR has just been released. Designed to embody the twin ideas of beauty and speed, the GTC features an aggressive front, LED daytime running lights, stocky rear wheel haunches, and incorporates the classic Opel styling cues, like the &#8216;blade&#8217; from the Insignia.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-8962" title="Opel GTC Paris Concept Official Pictures Out" src="http://www.carblog.co.za/wp-content/uploads/Opel-GTC-Paris-Concept3.jpg" alt="Opel GTC Paris Concept3 Opel GTC Paris Concept Official Pictures Out" width="570" height="288" /></p>
<p><span id="more-8957"></span>Other highlights are the roof-mounted spoiler, 21-inches wheels, and an aluminum window trim. A turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine powers the vehicle.</p>
<p>Rumor is that the engine is capable of producing up to 300 hp (224 kW / 304 PS), although some reports say 285 hp (213 kW / 289 PS). The car will feature start/stop technology and will be connected to a six-speed manual transmission. A FlexRide suspension has been included and the car also has a limited-slip front differential.</p>
<p>Fans will have to wait until the end of this month to get more information on this stylish offering.</p>

<p>The BMW 5-Series&#8217;s complete details are about to be revealed soon, but meanwhile, some pics of the car&#8217;s design were leaked &#8211; you can see the front end of the car partially exposed. BMW officials claim that this car will be the most visually striking model in the BMW lineup for this generation. However, the leaked photos don&#8217;t seem to go along with these claims a lot. The car seems to be based on design elements that have been tried with time and are a natural step forward &#8211; they don&#8217;t look remarkably extraordinary though. The car will probably be equipped with a new version of one of the current engines, especially tweaked for increased efficiency and fuel use. There are some rumors floating around that it may actually be a four-cylinder petrol turbo engine. [via <a target="_blank" href="http://f10.5post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=324168">5post</a>]</p>

Well folks we can finally got our hands on the first official photos with the <strong>2011 Volvo S60 Luxury Sedan</strong>, before its public debut at next year&#8217;s Geneva Motor Show. &#8220;The all-new Volvo S60 is sculpted to move you,&#8221; says Stephen Odell, President and CEO of Volvo Cars. &#8220;It looks and drives like no other Volvo before and the car&#8217;s technology will help you to be safer and more confident behind the wheel.&#8221; Not much else to tell you about it, except for the fact that it sure has what it takes to win a man&#8217;s heart.</p>

<p>Koenigsegg may not be an owner as experienced as GM but it has taken the right decision of hurrying the announcement of the 2010 Saab 9-5. It may not be hurried in the context that an upgrade took a decade but even then, it is good to know that the upgrade has finally arrived. The influences of GM are still evident but that in no manner harms the car. The 2010 Saab 9-5 comes with a number of engine choices which include a 1.6-liter gas turbo variant capable of producing 180hp, a 2.8L V6 turbo that churns 300 horses and a 2.0L 4 Cylinder turbo capable of producing 220hp. For the green freaks, there is an E85 based 2.0L engine and a 2.0L turbo diesel choice. All these engine variants will be mated to a six-speed  gear transmission.
