I Want a V6 Mustang?

 Well, kind of.  I'd still rather have a 370z or a Camaro.  But, if I were to get a Mustang, I think I'd actually need to get the V6 model.  Long the realm of poseurs, the V6 is actually starting to look pretty freaking awesome.  Check out these new stats from the press release:

 

  • For 2011, Mustang makes sports coupe news with a new high-performance, all-aluminum Duratec® 3.7-liter DOHC Ti-VCT V-6 that delivers 305 horsepower and an expected best-in-class 30 mpg highway with six-speed automatic transmission – no other vehicle in the industry can beat that combination
  • Six-speed transmissions – manual and automatic – combine with newly standard limited-slip differential and revised suspension for road-carving driving dynamics and handling
  • Mustang buyers choosing the new V-6 will also get a standard limited-slip differential that provides better handling and more sure-footed grip in poor weather conditions by directing engine torque to the rear wheel with the most traction. When the time comes to slow things down, the 2011 Mustang is also equipped with larger four-wheel ABS disc brakes, with 11.5 inch front and 11.8 inch rear rotors.

Honda EV-Cub concept looks like an electric Vespa

 I like this bike.  I'm not saying I would actually ride it, but I would date a girl who did.  Me, I'm more of a Mission One kind of guy when it comes to electric bikes (hit the jump to see a pic of that).

The only info I can gather is that it's a 2WD electric motorcycle, and might be available next year.  I really like the 2WD feature, even if this is most likely a requirement because of puny electric motors.

Blown Z3 Smallblock... yes please

There isn't much to say about this car that you can't see in the picture.  It's a Z3.  It has a blown smallblock engine in it.  It's making me drool uncontrollably.
