Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 certified at 662 hp!

You might recall that a few scant minutes ago, Ford had declined to confirm that the 2013 Mustang Shelby GT500 was certified by the SAE to crank out no less than 662 hp and 630 lb-ft of torque. In light of the leak, Ford has reversed its decision and decided to officially confirm the number. The rumors, apparently, were off by one foot-pound of torque.

Rude roads hit house prices

STREETS with rude-sounding names like Crotch Crescent, Turkey Cock Lane, Bell End and The Knob could turn out to be a haven for property hunters looking to snap up a bargain, research suggests. The study for website NeedaProperty.com looked for evidence of what impact living in a street with a suggestive name could have on the value of your home. Properties on streets with innuendo-laden names were found to be around one fifth or £84,000 cheaper on average than other homes situated nearby.

So BMW are looking at ways to inject a little more economy in to the MINI Cooper, and if possible a little more power.
