Honda S660 Concept sports car for Tokyo Motor Show 2013

Honda has announced its line-up for the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show –　and right at the top of the billing is this tiny but mighty S660 Concept roadster. As the name suggests, the S660 is only billed as a concept. But looking distinctly like an evolution of the 2011 Honda EV-STER show car [note this is a 2011 concept despite the title of a later link…], could it be that the Japanese manufacturer is finally about to build a new sporting model?

Hennessey-tuned Ford GT does a 235.1-mph Texas two-step

A few times a year, some of the fastest and most powerful cars meet in Texas for an adrenaline-filled weekend of top-speed runs called the Texas Mile. The high-performance machines have one mile of arrow-straight runway to get the highest top speed at the one-mile marker. It was the right mix of conditions for Mark Heidaker and Sean Kennedy, who drove their twin-turbocharged Ford GT to a top speed of 235.1 mph down the runway into a decent headwind of 20 mph.

New BMW Zagato Concept teased for Pebble Beach

A surprise new BMW Zagato Roadster Concept is teased ahead of a debut at Pebble Beach later this month. Following on from the BMW Zagato Coupe we saw at Villa D’Este earlier this year, BMW are now teasing what appears to be a Roadster version ahead of a debut at Pebble Beach later this month. A one-off collaboration between BMW and Zagato at Villa D’Este is one thing, but to follow that up a few months later with a Roadster version makes us think the protestations that the Villa D’Este car was a one-off were a tad disingenuous.
