Mazda 3, Mazda 6 get customized for the SEMA Show

We like the look of Mazda's current lineup, from the basic 2 to the sleek 6. Kodo design language has a lot to do with it -- Mazda North American Operations design director Derek Jenkins says that, thanks that Kodo styling, "the Zoom-Zoom genetic code is further being embraced, not buried, through increasingly expressive vehicle design." (Ugh.-ED) We didn't know genetics had anything to do with it, but hey -- tough to argue with the results. Perhaps Kodo's effectiveness is why Mazda's SEMA show concepts are fairly...restrained compared to what other automakers are bringing to Las Vegas.

Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera

By Chris Chilton First Official Pictures 28 February 2007 01:29 Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera: the lowdown Lighter, faster, louder: the most exciting Gallardo yet seems to tick every box. The limited edition baby Lambo – around 350 cars will be built over the next couple of years – was conceived as the ultimate small supercar and a genuine rival for Ferrari’s hardcore Challenge Stradale models, the next of which, the F430, arrives early next year. Prices are still to be confirmed but are expected to be around 10 per cent higher than the standard car, which would make the Superleggera £143,000.

Citroën DS5

Also revealed before the Shanghai show begins, is the latest Citroën to wear the DS moniker. The DS5 is said to fully express Citroën's 'Créative Technologie', combining 'style with innovative engineering solutions'. The DS5 is based on the C-SportLounge concept and takes the DS brand into the luxury segment.
