Early 2008 Will Be Crazy

1ster · 11-08-2007, 05:16 PM

There are a ridiculous number of hot (and semi-hot) cars coming out between January 2008 and June 2008.

* 128i/135i
* New Evo
* New STI
* Nissan GT-R
* M3
* Cobalt SS Turbo (260hp)
* Mini Cooper S Clubman
* Lexus IS-F
* Mercedes C63 AMG
* Shelby GT500 KR and Super Snake

I'm sure I'm missing a few. All I know is: it's a good time to be a car enthusiast. We don't have many years of this left until the oil crunch spoils the fun (or forces manufacturers to give us small, lightweight performance cars instead

).

Good, let's hope the 135i gets lost in the shuffle and there'll be bargains to be had. ; -)

Apparently you've missed the juggernaut.

The RWD Hyundai GT coupe...I agree with the OP.

Yep, competition is always good for the consumer...

That c63 AMG MB did 0-60 in 3.9 seconds..
Thats NUTZ!!
I bet traction was the limiting factor.. and I bet that engine is undertuned not to step on big E/S/SL/CLS 63 models..
