Woppum Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 So what interesting new cars are coming through over the next couple of years...? I can think of: - New M3 - New Lambo - 599 - New Merc CL - M5 Touring - RS3 What else is there. Apart from the new M3 im finding it very hard to get excited about new talent. It seems we are now on a decling peak. All the best cars have been.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 New RS6 V8 Aston Martin Further development of the 997 (M5 touring.. you sure? ) (and still not convinced by RS3!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woppum Posted September 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 Im sure I have seen pics of a mule on the ring, and they did do a M5 touring in Europe for tha last model. Im sure BMW would consider it with the success of the RS6, RS4 and E55 avants... RS3, I agree, but id like to think its a possible... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarMad Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 Not for everyone but IS250 Coupe and Cab. IS500 ?? IS350 coming to the UK. New 325 and 330 Direct injection BMW engines to improve the already very good economy vs power they produce. RS3 will happen but not until the next model. 2.5, 5 cylinder with 350bhp. Oh and lots more hybrids from everyone, with Merc being the next to push bigtime. Next Golf GTI to be 1.8 or 2.0 Supercharged / turbo charged as found in the current 1.4 GT. Expect power to be mid early to mid 220-250bhp and again better economy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sayerbloke Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 Probably some new Bentley thing. Maybe a new Koenigsegg? Rumours of a new Supra to join the confirmed new Skyline. Don't be too surprised if there's a new Corvette C7, too. Couple of new Lotuses are definitely planned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woppum Posted September 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 O yeah the Bentley GTC is due here towards the end of the year. And hopefully they will do a 135 which should be fantastic!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewNiceMrMe Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 I thought, and was pretty sure in fact, that the M5 Touring had been dropped. Could be wrong though. I didn't know there was a new Lamborghini on the way other than the Miura though - is that the one mentioned? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woppum Posted September 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 Fantastic looking thing. Its just a shame they didnt make it look like that, but somehow manage to shrink it some. Its just too wide to have fun with on most roads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sayerbloke Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 There's going to be a supercharged version of the new Jag XK/XKR soon isn't there? Also in the next couple of years, the new Challenger and Camaro [though only in the US]. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sayerbloke Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 There's a Ferrari F430 Challenge Stradale in development. Some new Maserati GT Coupe is too. 997 911 GT2 is bound to be along soon. They're also making a Targa version of the 911 for the first time in a long time.

Simonl Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 I'm quite surprised at the comments about the RS3. As soon as the prices were revealed for the S3, most were up in arms saying it was way to much for a hatch. Do you honestly see people forking out £35k+ for an Uber Hatch?

If the car had 350bhp+ had a good chaise and looked the part it may be enough to tempt me away from the Upcoming 420+bhp M3! I loved the R32 and if Audi can make a super dooper one of those id probably buy it. There is something about a very fast, well sorted hot hatch that really excites me...
