Nissan has given a first teaser of their new sporty vehicle for the environmentalist-cautious, its known as the Nissan Esflow concept and will likely debut at the Geneva Motor Show next month.
Estimated to arrive us in Europe with a hefty price tag of 77k Euros, the new 2010 Audi RS5 just unveiled this week at the Geneva Motor Show is in my view one of the coolest looking sports coupe currently available. 450 horsepower is what you get when you combine Audi’s Quattro all wheel drive technology with their new 4.2L V8 engine, this beast of a car will definitely be as good a head turner as its more powerful brother, the Audi R8.
