The SSC Ultimate Aero 2; The most futuristic actual car?

Shelby Super Cars SSC Aero 2

When you speak of “The fastest car in the world” The first thing which comes to mind is usually the Bugatti Veyron. That used to be correct. However…

The newborn of Shelby Super Cars (SSC) was revealed recently. The Ultimate Aero 2 promises a whopping 440 Km/h (which is 273 mph)! Making it officially the fastest car in the world.

Next step: The flying car? (we are about 10 years overdue by now) The shape, the huge black windows and minimalistic colours remind me of a simple spaceship, that’s for sure. It’s not as innovating in its design as the Audi-D7 concept I talked about earlier

Check out the amazing gallery below.

Pricetag? 696.000 Euros. I’ll take 2 please.

Incredible BMW design concept car

P90047167

Every day new concept cars arise from imagination to render and eventually a test-model. Problem is, usually the renders looked way more awesome than the real deal.

But here’s a car that looks actually cooler in real than the concept renders. I know most people already know about this vehicle or have seen it on auto-salons or the internet, but I wouldn’t want to leave this badboy out of this website’s collection.

BMW’s “Efficient Dynamics”, pushing 356hp while maintaining about 62MPG.

The new BMW Vision EfficientDynamics combines superb driving performance with extremely low consumption. A hybrid drive system and a revolutionary design are among the highlights. The film reveals how a sustainable, but enjoyable future BMW will look like.

These Germans did it again! If you compare today’s cars with these of the early 60’s, I think we could be driving these babies for a somewhat “affordable” price around 2040.

Please enjoy these stunning pics:

My God, it’s full of Citroën?

To be honest, I have no idea where i got this design, but damnit… (by the looks of that logo) That’s an awesome Citroën!

Kudos to the designer. What more can I say? If I ever find the original artist, or if you happen to know where I found this, please let me know, ok?

Update: In the meantime I have stumbled upon more images of this concept car. It is indeed a Citroën!

Audi D7 Concept Car

Ok… So I just stumbled on this pretty baby and just couldn’t resist sharing this with you.

Must say that I’m a fan of Audi, especially since the release of their mighty Audi R8 ( I love this car, and the ad). So I’m sorry if I occasionally forget to mention other car-brands’ concepts.

This concept here… It may not perfect (yet) but gosh almighty it does resemble my impression of “future” when i hear the word. And it went vice versa when I first laid eyes on this amazing piece of design. Let’s hope Audi does the same as they did with the R8 they designed for the movie  “I Robot”…: Make it even more awesome and bring it to the market!
