奥迪A7及其敞篷版小道消息及照片 Audi A7 Coupe and Cab Revealed

A7将于2009年底发布，不只有coupe，还有敞篷版。
外观：如图所示，应该差不远了。那硬顶敞篷挺NB的。
动力：最小2.8L V6 FSI，最大是RS7用的，5.0L V10 双涡轮增压。其他的，底盘A6的，价格4万欧元。


"Just as the A5 uses the A4 platform, so the A7 will be based on the new A6. But the next-gen A6, which means a lightweight aluminium platform with various steel reinforcements.

Air suspension will be standard on high-end models, and unless sales don’t surpass the expected 40,000 units, four-cylinder power won’t happen. Instead buyers will be offered a based 2.8-litre V6 FSI or the new supercharged 3.0-litre V6. Oil-burning owners will pick between a 2.7-litre, and a 3.0-litre V6 with either one or two turbos. Then if you can make sense of it all, there will be various six and seven-speed manuals, autos and dual-clutch S-tronic boxes.

Audi will slot, no make that shoehorn, its 5.0-litre twin-turbo V10 into the A7 to create an RS7, while the S7 will use a detuned version. Never fear though, because a hybrid version will be on hand to balance your polluting ways ." From CAR Online

Gumball 3000 is going to China

昨天刚从杭州回来，终于又能上网了，这是有点旧的新闻了。
Gumball 3000今年10岁了，恰逢北京2008奥运会，120辆浩瀚的豪车队伍将于8月9日从旧金山出发，飞越太平洋，去朝鲜意思一下就抵达中国！先到南京，然后北上途经上海和徐州，最后在奥运会期间抵达首都北京（别把奥运给搅黄了）。呃，他们没说中国的车主能不能参加，随便啦。我好想飞去北京观看这国际盛会啊！顺便关心一下奥运会，然后回太原老家:)

From MotorAuthority: "The long wait is over for Gumball 3000 fans around the world as the official route for this year’s has been announced. The 10th anniversary rally will begin in San Francisco on the 9th of August, working its way through the West Coast of North America and stopping in San Deigo and Las Vegas before flying to China in time for the Beijing Olympics just eight days later.

Last year’s rally was canceled due to a car accident involving a Porsche 911 Turbo and a Volkswagen Golf, which led to the untimely death of a passing motorist in Albania. This year’s event should bring back the excitement of the Gumball rally, with an estimated 120 vehicles set to fly aboard three of the world’s largest Antonov Cargo Planes plus a scheduled stop-over in North Korea as part of a global ‘friendship’ initiative."

TopGear 第10季！ TopGear the Season 10

很高兴这个周末没有TopGear，好让我把每集精华发表出来。去完北极后，第10季的节目正式开播了，有好多好看的东西。
第一集，Jeremy试驾了w12 GolfGTi，他们三个开车去找世界上最漂亮的公路。
It's great that there's no TopGear this weekend. Because then I have time to release the article. After driving to the north pole, they came back and play the show of season 10. There's a lot of fun.
The 1st episode, Jeremy drove the w12 Golf GTi. And the three drove to the most fascinating road on the earth.

Jeremy的试驾结果是这辆golf只会甩尾，不会拐弯。其实是Jeremy自己不会开，Stig作出了最快圈速，成绩不怎样，忘了。
Jeremy couldn't control the golf. So he handed it to Stig. And the time is... Too normal, I forgot it.

哈蒙德一路顺风。
Hammond had a good time with the GT3 RS.

阿斯顿马丁Vantage N24的乘坐感受烂透了，一路上总是梅开着的N24出问题，最后热得梅裸体开车。赛车，为了减重，空调就没了，但性能并不出色。
The Aston Martin Vantage N24 was awful about the comfort. As May said, his testicles were crushed.

杰瑞米开着盖拉多Superleggera很爽。
Jeremy was satisfied with the orange Gallardo Superleggera. It's a cool car.

宝马X6首次无伪装亮相 BMW X6 without Camouflage Pictures

之前已经见过不少宝马X6的谍照了，现在，终于有无伪装的清晰照片看了！应该是官方漏出来的。X6将开创一个新的细分车型－－运动型coupeSUV，关于coupe，应该是双门的，不过X6是四门的，将来的X1应该就是双门的正宗coupeSUV了。但X6还满足coupe的斜背设计（看下图），后座的头部空间很小，所以凑合着叫coupe吧！X6是四驱的，可能是最灵活的四驱SUV了。传说2009年上市。就这么多了，看照片吧，还算漂亮。

用法拉利塞满银石 Record number of Ferrari’s turn up at Silverstone

为了庆祝法拉利60岁生日，也为了创造吉尼斯记录，385辆法拉利（包括40辆F40）把英国银石赛道堵了个水泄不通。为啥在银石捣乱而不在老家的蒙扎呢？因为银石是法拉利第一次获得F1大奖赛冠军的地方。看看照片里有哪些法拉利吧！
This amazing scene was taken yesterday as the largest number of Ferraris to ever gather in one place came together with officials from the Guinness Book of Records on hand to confirm the achievement. The event celebrating the 60th anniversary of the legendary marque saw no less than 385 Ferraris filling the Silverstone race track.
The site was chosen because of its historical significance for the prancing horse brand. The British track was the site of the first Ferrari win in the F1 World Championship when Froilan Gonzalez won at the wheel of a Ferrari 375 race car on July 14th 1951.
The day also saw a record number of F40s turn-up, with exactly 40 Ferrari F40s making an appearance. An ultra-rare FXX supercar also starred at the show, a car with only 29 models in existence plus a special one for Michael Schumacher.

极品飞车11的第一个视频放出！NFS11's First Teaser Released!

等了半年了，终于有点儿实在的消息了，在2007年5月31日，EA官方将正式公布下一代极品飞车11。最重要的是，已经放出一段视频了！包括720p的高清版本。视频中展示的是一辆马自达RX-7，车身有损毁的细节，轮毂、刹车盘的细节十分清晰。我觉得会有场地漂移赛，有损毁模式。
我这里的图都是1280x720的最大分辨率截图，还有更多在我的flickr里。

我五一香港游的照片 I had a trip to HongKong

500多张照片终于整理得差不多了。
附一些感受：
HK的奔驰真TMD多！大厦间的天桥代替了人行道。助残设施齐全。太平山顶的EA体验中心不错！港岛的夜景漂亮！年长者更友好。没有美国车和国产车。老外多，三分之一！海水干净，街道整洁。市民素质较高。吃饭较贵。
这里贴几张，更多的请进我的flickr里看。

宝马Z9概念车将在上海车展亮相 BMW to unveil Z9 Concept at Shanghai Auto Show

宝马将在4月22日开幕的上海车展上全球首发Z9概念车。Z9定位于高性能运动型跑车，竞争对手是奔驰的SL级和奥迪R8（我还以为BMW也要出跟SLR竞争的超级跑车呢，太胆小了吧！）。
根据Automotive News的内线消息，宝马希望Z9达到每年15000辆的销售量，超过Z8的5703辆年销售量。Z9将会是双座跑车，前置引擎，引擎可能是来自M5和M6的5.0L V10，也可能是全新的6.3L V12。

(上图为1999年法兰克福车展上展出的Z9概念车)
BMW will give a preview of a possible flagship sports car with a new concept vehicle that’s expected to make its debut at the Shanghai Auto Show on the 22nd of April. The concept is said to hint at an all-new production vehicle that’s likely to carry the Z9 moniker and will go head-to-head with high-end sports cars such as the Mercedes-Benz SL and Audi R8.
Speaking with Automotive News, a BMW source stated that the company hopes to sell up to 15,000 Z9’s per year, a significant leap over the 5,703 annual units of its Z8 roadster ,the carmaker’s most recent attempt at selling a high-priced flagship sports car. According to the source, the new Z9 will be a strict two-seater and feature a front-engine RWD configuration with an optional folding hard-top.
Possible prototypes of the car have been spotted in Germany, which reveal a long-nosed roadster with short rear overhangs and M-style vents on the fenders. A base model is expected to feature the 335i’s potent twin-turbo straight six, but it’s still unclear whether the range-topper will get the 5.0L V10 from the M5/M6 line or a new 6.3L V12.

Saturn Aura被授予最容易洗的车型

引用Autoblog：大家都有过买车后洗车的经历，如果你的车型不够好，或者是那些做工比较差的车，那么在洗车的时候就会产生清洗不干净的情况，不过Saturn Aura可是百里挑一的好车，他的流线型车身的线条贴合精密，包括后视镜，玻璃等，同时天线，前雨刮器等部件隐藏的很好，车门也很容易清洗，种种综合因素构成了Saturn Aura夺得最容易清洗的车型称号。
