The new 2012 BMW 6-Series Convertible turned out to be a no-show at this week’s 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show but that hasn’t stopped BMW from releasing full details for its luxurious new drop-top, which should go on sale early next year.

While the previous generation 6-Series was by no means ugly, the styling of the new model is light years apart. A sweeping bonnet, set-back passenger compartment, long wheelbase and flat waistline embody the hallmark proportions of a BMW convertible. The stylish qualities continue into the interior, which is highlighted by the driver-oriented cockpit that wraps the front passenger and rear passengers in a feeling of security.

It has been nearly nine months since we last caught up with BMW’s 2012 3-Series in the wild, and six months since we shared our illustrations of what we think BMW’s next bread and butter sedan will resemble. Today, we can gladly report a fresh set of spy shots of the 3-Series sedan as it completed winter testing in northern Sweden.In many ways the flagship of BMW’s lineup, the 3-Series sedan has never been a blank canvas for BMW design. Instead, it pursues a trickle-down approach that defines “evolutionary, not revolutionary.” Despite its conservative style, the 2012 3-Series is set to be the sportiest looking and driving 3-Series yet as BMW continues to hone its performance credentials as the competition draws ever nearer.

Now, you’ll notice that even in French, “less ugly” doesn’t precisely translate to “finally, BMW’s making good-looking cars again.” While Chris Bangle is out and Adrian Van Hooydonk is in, that just means we’re transitioning from pregnant cats to baby whales as the anthropomorphic design language of choice.

BMW’s not releasing any mechanical details of the 2010 6-Series since, you know, this is just a concept, but we can see that the proportions are very similar to the outgoing model, hoffmeister kink and all.

Prior Design has a complete styling package for the BMW E90 models except M3 of course well known. The widebody kit not only the sedan more aggressiveness, but also improves airflow.

All parts are made of Dura-Flex, which is a high quality of materials, characterized by surface structure made ??exccelent sufficient flexibility and stability. In addition, all components are easy to paint, so you have no problem with this game, the original color of the car.

The package includes front apron, a pair of side skirts, a pair of front fenders, rear apron, a peir of rear extensions and all mounting materials. TÜV parts certificate is also included.

A radical hood, set-back passenger compartment, long wheelbase and flat waist embody the characteristic proportions of a BMW convertible. The new BMW 6-Series Convertible combines these features with a classic soft top roof in the conventional fin design. Highly curved surfaces and the acceleration of the lines go promise insured properties. The luxurious ambience of the interior by the driver-oriented cockpit is highlighted set-up handles and front passenger and rear passengers in an exclusive sense of security. Nowhere is the high-class functionality of the interior underlines prominent than in the control display of the new operating system equipped detached iDrive.The new BMW 6-Series Convertible comes with two engine options from launch. The eight-cylinder engine in the BMW 650i Convertible produces 300 kW/407 hp, while a variant of the exclusive six-cylinder engine with Twin Turbo Power BMW direct injection and Valvetronic generating 235 kW/320 hp – BMW 640i Convertible is designed for.

BMW is being productive right now. Again, not so long after the launch and debut of several high end products at the Frankfurt Auto Show, the company is already announcing the release of the 2012 BMW 650i xDrive Coupe. With this special design, the ride is available in luxurious city car with all wheel driving system, which is certainly going to attract lots of attention and stare.

This vehicle BMW 650i xDrive Announced is running with the special and fast V8 engine with 4.4 liter, able to produce about 400 hp. However, due to the smart driving system – special BMW model – with its smart all wheel system, the car will be heavier and also slower. But since it has good stability and traction system, it won’t be a problem at all. The speed won’t be affected much, because the car is said to be able to reach about 100 km per hour in only 4.7 seconds.

The 2012 BMW 650i xDrive price is set around $86,000 and customers will get lots of benefits and facilities. The car will be coming with great Navigation Onboard System with Voice Command, Traffic Alerts, adaptor for the USB and iPod, and also Climate zone system.

At the 2011 Detroit Auto Show next month, BMW is expected to have a huge presence with some significant world debuts. Joining the recently announced 2012 BMW 6-Series Convertible will be the new 2012 BMW 1-Series M Coupe and the 2012 BMW 1-Series Coupe and Convertible that were revealed yesterday.

Here are some new images of the 2012 BMW 6-Series Convertible to keep you satisfied until we bring you live images from the show floor starting Jan. 10.

Refresher: Power for the 2012 BMW 650i Convertible comes from the twin-turbocharged 4.4L V8  making 400-hp with a peak torque of 450 lb-ft available between 1,750 and 4,500 rpm. The engine can be mated to BMW’s 8-speed Sport Automatic gearbox or a 6-speed manual transmission. 0-60 mph comes in 4.9 seconds with a top speed of 155 mph. Sales of the 2012 BMW 650i Convertible will start in spring of 2011.

We should no longer be surprised by the notion of a compact car with big-sedan features and eye-popping fuel economy. New creations like the Hyundai Elantra and Chevrolet Cruze have gone about making the compact segment one of the most hotly contested arenas in the market, rankling the chains of long-time fighters like the Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla in the process. But while the Cruze and Elantra have proven that big content can come in small packages with smaller price tags, there’s a growing sense that the fun-to-fling small car may be on its way out in favor of commuters that have inherited the soft-riding genes of their bigger brethren.

In a way, the change was all but inevitable. Whereas the compact segment once served up a cornucopia of rides that were low on power but big on handling, the market has proven that above all else, buyers in this neck of the woods want value. In an effort to pinch every last copper cent, both Hyundai and Chevrolet have scrapped the independent rear suspension in their respective compacts in favor of the consideo when Ford announced that American buyers would finally be able to get their hands on the global Focus, our ears perked up. The last Euro-Focus had built a reputation for being a smart handler, and if this latest version could make it across the pond without becoming too watered down in the process, compact buyers would once again have a vehicle that’s as fun to drive as it is responsible to own. Now we get to find out if Ford pulled it off.

From the exterior, there’s no mistaking the 2012 Ford Focus for a flat-line commuter. The FoMoCo designers graced both the four-door and five-door body styles with a menacing fascia that makes use of massive faux air-inlets on either side of the main grille, and the blacked-out treatment is plenty sharp in the flesh. That’s especially true when the Focus wears the optional 17-inch painted alloy wheels of our sedan tester. Ford is planning to offer a whopping total of 11 different wheel variants, with 18-inch, multi-spoke rollers topping the chartsrably cheaper torsion-beam dWrapped headlights carry your eye around the side of the Focus, where a sloping shoulder line and subtle strake help give the car a sense of movement in four-door guise. Out back, the sedan wears a remarkably short trunk deck, though the wrapped tail lamps go a long way toward helping everything feel cohesive. We couldn’t really drum up a complaint with the appearance of the sedan, but the five-door variant is far and above the looker in our book.

While the hatch makes use of the same front bodywork as its four-door kin, the five-door presents a much more sorted rear. Tricks like a fuel door that’s integrated into the tail lamp design and an attractive roof spoiler go a long way toward making the Focus hatch one of the more creatively styled compacts.esign.2012 Ford FocusInside, the Focus offers up an interior that, while nice, isn’t going to redefine what buyers have come to expect from small cars in America. Base trim delivers comfortable cloth seats with acceptable bolstering, though the two-tone grey on black cloth of our sedan tester was more than a little cringe-worthy. The good news is that the higher you climb on the option sheet, the better those thrones become. Ford does offer handsome leather buckets with contrasting stitching if you can’t stomach the thought of parking your keester on the low-rent seats.

Seating material aside, the Focus uses stylish, easy-to-read gauges that are supplemented by a small LCD screen nestled between the tachometer and the speedometer. The screen can be set up to display everything from fuel economy to your trip meter, average speed and a host of other information. Handy controls on the steering wheel make the screen easy to use and easier to set up, though we wouldn’t recommend flipping through the categories while on the road.

0-60 in 3.1 seconds. $ 235,000. Given these numbers, you’d think we were talking about a supercar, right? Well we are, supercar, if you want something with performance capabilities beyond. But this is not a two-seater roadster. It’s a Jeep.

To be more precise, this is the last Hennessey HPE800 Twin Turbo, a new rocket sled based on Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8. This model packs a 6.4-liter V8 Hemi usually – What is already larger than any measure – but Hennessey is bored out a nice round 7.0-liter and a pair of turbochargers bolted to it.

Together with the engine mods fundamentally, the HPE800 also gets updated and torque converted transmission (automatic is a conventional, after all), plus 20-inch wheels on a suspension lowered by 15.1-inch Brembo brakes, and a redesigned fascia with a carbon fiber splitter up front.

If you are looking for the new Fiat Ducato 2012 and thinking it looks a lot like the 2011 model, well, you’re right. This is because, although the division of Fiat commercial vehicles has made revisions of its flagship prolific enough to define a new model, the exterior has remained the same.Most of the improvements have been made on the inside of the vehicle, which is said to be much more car-like than the outgoing model. That includes niceties such as refrigerator-board, chrome accents and a TomTom navigation system developed with Microsoft Blue & Me feature.roster of new MultiJet engine options range from 110 to 177 horses and are intended to be cheaper to run in compliance with Euro 5 emissions regulations. Among the powertrain and various body-styles, Fiat says there are about 2,000 different configurations that can be ordered.roster of new MultiJet engine options range
