  • Reprographic quality is excellent with minimal loss between parent and child (although one chart is poor).  Keep in mind this is a "Status Report" on the 302 Trans-Am engine program. It contains some raw data (Charts, Graphs, Evaluations etc.) but the most important aspect is the projected outline regarding the on-going the program. The content is priceless!!!

Honda Civic Type-R (2006): first official pictures

Thu, 14 Sep 2006

By Dimitri Pesin First Official Pictures 14 September 2006 07:12 The lowdown Honda's ultimate Civic – the Type-R – is unveiled today (Thursday 14). Set to go on UK sale in March 2007 for around £18,000, this Type-R attempts to mate the outgoing hot hatch's high-revving, wild child drivetrain with a more mellow driving experience – when the mood takes you. Indeed, Honda is billing the new car as a 'refined superhatch', a concept Ford and VW have nailed successfully with the Focus ST and Golf GTi.

Toyota Fuel Cell Sedan (2015) revealed: the £40k hydrogen car is here

Wed, 25 Jun 2014

By Tim Pollard First Official Pictures 25 June 2014 13:14 Toyota has revealed the final design for its new Fuel Cell Sedan. It's a 'Ronseal', does-what-it-says-on-the-tin choice of name for the car: it is, indeed, Toyota's hydrogen fuel-cell-powered saloon - and this one is coming to a showroom near you sooner than you think. The H2 car may blend concept car cues with Japanese global design blandness, but the Fuel Cell Sedan is significant as much for the numbers involved as the futuristic look.
