A limo-fied Mercedes S600 called the Mercedes-Benz S600 Pullman Guard. Pretty nice ride if you ask me — too bad the price tag is “pretty nice” too.

Possibly the next extremely expensive Bugatti – and I’m very much hoping for this Bugatti Galibier 16C Concept to make it into production. What a grand look!

Tags: Citroen, concept
You guys are really, seriously going to just hate me. One of the reasons I chose to highlight this car this week — it is the Citroen Revolte concept, by the bye — is because of the color shown here. It is absolutely to die for. It is so, so, so — gasp! — pretty!
And actually, I like the design of the concept as well. It was unveiled at the motor show in Frankfurt just recently. A very compact city car, it is inspired by the 2CV, a true classic. It has a rechargeable hybrid drivetrain as well.
Inside, the interior complements the exterior with a multicolored scheme covering the three seats. It is actually made to resemble a lounge — can you get more chic?

Tags: concept, Fisker Karma S
Have you heard about Fisker Automotive? Do not worry if you haven’t; until quite recently, I had never heard of the manufacturer either.
They are a very special, very exclusive automaker, though, specializing solely in green cars. Recently they unveiled the new addition to their lineup. This came a year after the original unveiling of the Karma concept.
This one, called the Fisker Karma S concept, is a four seater convertible.
It is expected that the car will get to the showroom without showing many changes at all — if, in fact, it shows any.
This seems to be the new generation of automakers. More and more new manufacturers are emerging, and they are trying to go as green as possible. On the one hand, that’s great.
On the other hand, one just has to hope that Henrik Fisker, whose automobiles are both stylish and eco friendly, won’t end up meeting the same fate as Preston Tucker.

To be honest – I forgot about the Bentley brand … I really haven’t thought about Bentley’s in quite a while but when I saw that they are going to be debuting a brand new car at the Frankfurt Motor Show – well, I had to share the wealth! The Bentley Continental GT/C Series 51 is the brand new car that should be showing next week and it is certainly going to be one car that everyone is going to want.
This car is actually one of the better paint-job featuring cars and as you know, Bentley is a brand that is known for their luxury cars inside and out. The Bentley Continental GT/C Series 51 is actually going to be available next year most likely and they are going to be available for order this month – which is mind boggling!
If you want a Bentley Continental GT/C Series 51 … you should go see it at the Frankfurt Motor Show … it is one hot luxury car!

Tags: 2010 Cars, concept, Peugeot RCZ
I will be honest, I do not a lot about, well, any of the Peugeot models — that has not really changed since coming upon a sneak peek of the 2010 Peugeot RCZ. There are really only a few pictures of the car available, and quite a bit of those are pretty … obscure.
The car has been in the works since at least 2007, when it was revealed solely as a concept. This was during the motor show in Frankfurt during that year.
The engineers and designers working on the Peugeot RCZ were intent on making sure the final version of the car kept with the concept car’s exterior design. Thus, among other things, it has kept the cant rail made out of aluminum and the double bubble roof.
This final version will premiere at this year’s Frankfurt motor show later this month.

Getting into a car wreck is so scary – so nerve-racking and certainly something that not everyone truly knows how to deal with. When you get into a car accident, the first thing that you need to remember is to stay calm. When you are panicking, it is only going to make things worse and nothing will get resolved – not to mention the fact that your could injure yourself more.
Car accidents are not easy to deal with, however there are a few things that you need to do. One is make sure that you do not ever leave the scene of an accident – you always want to wait for the police to get there, that way you can be absolutely sure that everything goes smoothly.
Next, you want to make sure that you get the information from the other driver – insurance needs specifically so your insurance company can bill their insurance company for the damages. Finally, know your coverage and just what is covered on your car insurance.

The cash for clunkers program is finally in full swing and people are not only getting brand new cars, but they are also helping the environment by turning in their gas guzzlers – however, I am getting horror stories in my e-mail everyday. To be quite frank, there are a few things that you need to do in order to ensure that you clunker and gas guzzler is going to qualify for the program and that you will be able to get the rebate.
First thing you need to do? Research! Make sure that you do all of your research before you even begin to go shopping, you want to make sure that your car or truck is going to be within the government standard and make sure that the car or truck that you are getting is going to be within the standard that you need to get the refund – honestly, this is something that so many people are skipping over and shouldn’t be!
After you have done your research – cut loose! Make sure that you get the full amount and totally make sure that you get the car that you want, after your research is done mind you!

Howard Hughes’ Lincoln 1936 Aero-Mobile is tagged at about a million dollars, and honestly — if I had that kind of money I would so love to buy it. Not to keep in the garage – but to actually drive. What a stunner!

Tags: Electric Cars, Green Car, Zero Carbonista
They’re planning to make this Zero Carbonista a pretty fast Green Car, if you ask me. Running on electricity created by Wind Farms — emissions can be reduced to close to zero. That’s a great thing in today’s carbon dioxide-stuffed world. Count me in, if this one isn’t going to be like a hundred thousand dollars, off course…

I’m not a huge fan of this whole eco thing but when Electric Vehicles start looking like this Protoscar LAMPO (it’s an Italian design, obviously) I’m extremely excited about the possible future of sporty Roadsters… 
Alternative Car Fuels might NOT be bad thing for petrol-heads!?
