Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster (2006): first official pictures

By Phil McNamara First Official Pictures 15 November 2006 08:42 Vantage Roadster: the lowdown Aston Martin today reveals the convertible version of the V8 Vantage coupe. Badged Roadster, the two-seat soft-top retains the knee trembling-looks and identical, stellar performance of the fixed head Vantage. That means 0-60mph blurs past in 4.9sec, with 175mph flat out, courtesy of the 380bhp V8 engine.

Spy Shots: Chevy SS caught testing, rendered

Way back in June, Autoweek published a speculative rendering of the forthcoming Chevrolet SS. The Zeta-platform, rear-wheel-drive, V8-powered follow-up to the late Pontiac G8 was recently spotted testing by the spy photographers at Chris Doane Automotive. Doane was so inspired by General Motors' nascent performance sedan that he commissioned his own Chevy SS rendering.

Saab fans gather outside GM headquarters

The 60-plus-year history of Saab may come to an inglorious end in the next few days if General Motors and Dutch supercar maker Spyker--or perhaps a dark-horse bidder--fail to reach an agreement to save the iconic Swedish maker of premium cars. But the potential death of yet another GM brand raised some voices of dissension--and passion--as a crowd of about 30 Saab enthusiasts braved temperatures in the 20s and snow flurries to show their support for Saab at a gathering near GM's global headquarters in downtown Detroit. The event was organized by the Ryan Emge, editor of a Saab.History.com, and was part car show, part rally and part family gathering.
