That’s kind of disrespectful to say, you just think I’m joking because I like to express myself with emojis? 
@Speedemon That’s odd, are you sure you’re not playing a prank on me? 
Maybe it’s some kind of Mandela effect? I always remembered the F50 looking like this.
@Microwave In Opera all my search results are blank, there’s only an URL if you open an image (In a new tab) or other site.
Well the URL is “google.se/search” so go figure, kinda obvious what he’s done.
##Daily Round-Up - Day 7
Welcome back to Detroit where the first week is over. It’s been one hell of a show so far, and it seems that things may be slowing down a little. Not that that’s a problem, as it means visitors will be able to get a proper look at everything that’s been announced far and give the automotive press some time to relax.
On with the show - time to cover all the action from Day 7!
Today’s musical accompaniment is Symphony No.9 - From The New World, 2nd movement by Antonin Dvorak
EADC defy science with groundbreaking technical showcase
The future of the automobile may very well have been on show today at the EADC stand, where the company’s simply named “Prototype” was revealed. Packed with exceptionally advanced bits of kit including AI, magnetic brakes, something called a HSALT transmission and even a hybrid system, it certainly brought science and the automobile together in quite a way.
Some, however, have asked whether or not this simply a way of squeezing every last bit of innovation from the combustion engine, a technology that has little else to go in terms of development, and whether more time should be spent on searching for its replacement. That said, the innovations made with Graphene tubes could be one step to dealing with the problem of storing hydrogen for HCVs, one journalist poitned out.
Cavallera display gorgeous retromod
“The Tehuano: Reborn” read the placard next to the pale orange 60s supercar that was on display at the Cavallera display today. Almost entirely reworked from the ground up, this gorgeous classic has been brought into the modern age in an incredibly tasteful way. 1000 of these things will be made, meaning there’s actually a slight chance you’ll be able to experience some 60s supercar performance in a far safer manor than they could ever manage back in this car’s day.
Minivan’s are the topic of Storm’s announcements today
Showing off two variants of its updated Serenity minivan, Storm today brought hybrid technology to the minivan for the first time. Their super secret solar-panel-glass technology has been incorporated into here too, making this one of the most advanced minivans ever. The two versions, the Standard and Courier, should certainly meet the needs of big families and small businesses, and the fact that they’ve incorporated such advanced kit (and even a sequential transmission) will certainly define this 3rd generation of the vehicle. Storm certainly seem to be injecting some interesting-ness into the more boring parts of the car market at the moment.
DSD and Maesima join forces for special version of MRZ-3
We love a special edition sports car here at S.A.M., and this looks to be no exception. Now packing a 5.5l V8, this car seems to have turned from a tasteful roadster into a mini muscle car, but perhaps thats a good thing. There’s not doubt it’ll be a lot of fun in a straight line, and the styling additions made to the car look excellent. No prices have been released yet.
Assoluto make us feel like we’re 12 years old all over again, again
The gorgeous original 1980s Crinale was on display today, a stunning example owned by an “aficionado” of the company. It’s still an astounding thing to behold, and we’re told it still just as terrifying to drive. Thank the lord for hypercars!
Canada launch new Toronto luxury brand
Canada launched their new Toronto luxury line today, replacing the company’s luxury sedan of the same name. Two cars, the 519 and 905, were on display, both featuring stylish and tasteful design and grand, sweeping lines. Specs are limited as of now, with a release of both cars later this year. They’re expected to go on sale in Winter of this year, which should make for a great Christmas present.
River reveal the Speeder concept
It’s been teased and rumored for quite some time now, but at last the new Speeder Concept broke the surface today. the carbon fibre car is exceptionally fast, bringing the Automation world ever closer to the 2.0 second 0-60 time. It’ll keep pace with a Le Mans car on the track despite weighing 500 kg more and lacking the massive aero-work those cars have. Packing a 6.6l bi turbo V12 and an AWD system, it seems to be a lightning quick machine. Just one question: when do we get to drive it?
That does it for today’s releases, but we did get some time for an interview with Andrew Westcott, the new head of the Toronto brand.
And with that, Day 7 is done. It’s been a heck of a week, time to see if I can get any further info leaks from company executives who happen to be out clubbing in the city tonight.
-Gavin Anderson
EADC engineers would like to respond with a rebuttal to this argument.
Yes the time of combustion engines are coming to a close sadly, however, we at EADC feel that other technologies are not yet ready for use. It should be noted however, that we are also working on alternative power sources, such as using Electric Motors and Hydrogen Fuel Cells, but those developments are far from perfect.
##Electric Cars
Yes, electric cars are becoming more and more popular, however, as a form of propulsion, they are currently very limited, in not only range but also in eco friendliness. You see the current problem with electric cars are that not only do we currently lack the infrastructure to be effective. In addition, electric cars are currently no more eco-friendly than the combustion engine. The energy which powers electric cars come from the electric grid, which is powered by mostly gas power plants and even coal power plants, which are even more polluting than the combustion engine.
##Hydrogen Fuel Cells
Now of course, a solution to this problem would be to use hydrogen fuel cells to power a car, however, again the infrastructure is simply not there yet. In addition, storing hydrogen is more difficult than storing petrol. This is due to hydrogen, being so reactive. Moreover, hydrogen requires a large tank to store a relatively small volume, this is due to the high pressures required to store hydrogen. Storing hydrogen in between the layers graphene of course is a viable option, however, the volume that can be stored this way is also severely limited.
Thus with this argument, I hope you understand why we at EADC are focusing on improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the combustion engine for the short term.
Official Response from Splendid Auto Monthly
Thank you for the informative response. It’s always illuminating to get an insight into the decisions a company makes when it comes to car design, especially on such a topic as this. In response, we ask whether EADC see the Prototype as a sort of stepping stone vehicle from combustion to electricity, hydrogen or somethin else entirely?
OOC, on a real note, what @Dorifto_Dorito said perfectly sums up the issue we currently have with powering our cars. I did a project on this exact topic and argued about almost all the points you made. I’d love to hear what other car makers here, especially the ones releasing Hybrids at this show, make of this topic. It’d certainly make for some excellent journalism 
In response to your question, we at EADC see the Prototype as a test bed for all our current tech. In the future, we are planning to convert it to hydrogen fuel cells, but we are also attempting to find other alternatives. For example, in the chemical industry, lots of waste by products are being produced. Some of these waste material can react with water or other substances to generate heat to run a Stirling engine without producing any harmful waste gases/chemicals.
Animated Engines - Single Cylinder Stirling
This website is great for finding out how engines work, from jets to steam to diesel.
JHW will be showcasing the full lineup tomorrow with a suprisereveal at the end
DSD would like to announce the official prices and track times of the presented vehicle this year.
Starting with the SFRAV aka Sand & Snow Fast Response Armored Vehicle.
Next up is the DSD Sambar
The DSDR/Maesima MRZ-384 ST-z Cabriolet
Finally we would like to announce the reveal of the Arowana R twin turbo and S v8 Hybrid Tomorrow at exactly 12 PM local Detroit time with the following teasers
Due to politics and racial comments from D. Trump, as well as the decision of Ford to cancel the creation of a new plant on Mexico, mexican brands Meliora Motorgroup and ADM Co. have decided to cancel their display on american land.
Also, Meliora plans to retrieve their Meliora MM design/production/HQ from Texas and retrieve from American Market their products.
Thanks 
yes, that does the Detroit Auto Show a bit more justice!
DSD Arowana R looks very weird for me, but it’s sort of cool weirdo 
(weirdo like Pontiac Solstice lol)
This is our big finale to our week of presentations. and to kick things off, we have two cars from JHW’s long and illustrious history.
The Excelsior was JHW’s vision of a grand tourer for the post war world. this 3.4L Inline 6 powered beast was good for 130mph and 9.1 seconds to 60, along with fuel economy that would be good even today! This was in thanks to a highly advanced spaceframe chassis and hand shaped aluminium bodywork. it was not a big seller, but it has become a classic amongst enthusiasts the world over.
This car was JHW’s attempt to create a multi discipline racer for the ABL series that ran in the 70’s, and this particular car ran in the 72/73 series (we don’t talk about the 70/71 series).
The 4200GT’s nickname came from it’s Flatplane V8 and it’s Kammback body-style. The car itself wasn’t the most sucessful car, but it was consistent and competitive throughout the series.
Now we have all of this years cars on display for the rest of the show, so today we will present them all together for the fist time!
##JHW Apollo - $71,600
Named for the Greek god of the deepest abyss of the Underworld, the Tartarus is a single seated concept car that is the very definition of unlimited design.
This is a car that is designed to be as focused and quick as we dare without sacreficing comfort, to make something truly awe inspiring to drive.
We’re not going to be revealing any technical data about the car, but the performance figures should give you an idea. 832bhp, 0-62mph in 2.6 seconds, 237mph top speed.
We’re not taking any prisoners with this car.
Thank you for visiting our keynote show and we hope you show great interest in our models!
I like your styling

#EADC Announcement
In 2003, EADC launched one of their best light sports cars alongside with the, then new, EADC Vixen sedan. it has been over a decade since then, and EADC have felt it has been a long time since they made a light sports car. so here it is, the EADC K180 Roadster.
Although not very fast, the K180 is fun and easy to drive, and can easily slide around a track. Inside, the interior is rather standard, having equipment similar to the EADC Verona. The K180 also has a rather small, yet fuel efficient 1.9L Sport engine.
In addition, there are other versions of the car, including a convertible premium trim, and a cheaper cabriolet trim.
So, now that the new car is out, heres what it’s replacing.
The old K150 Roadster was first shown in 2001, and production began in 2003. Designed by the EADC designer Imura Kaitou, the K150 featured an weight distribution of almost 50/50, giving the car almost perfect handling.
#Meanwhile completely unrelated to EADC or OAM
Here’s a car based on my entry for the King of the Hill Challenge 03, but I decided to resubmit something else.
##The 1945 Corona
This baby has a nice 5.3L V8 with 16 Valve Pushrod Powa. It looks like it came straight out of one of those old gangster movies.
And here’s the ‘Rat-Rod’ version, more mad and more bonkers. Now with 5.3L Pushrod Turbo Booscht.

This car celebrates Cavallera’s return to rallying, commemorating the Keihäsrausku, and so Cavallera Suoritskyky Oy, our dedicated rally division expresses our confidence in our abilities and appetite for future competition. The mechanical underpinnings of the design were handled by our Finnish rally department while the winning student from a German Design House joined them in styling this futuristic looking rally car. However, we stay true to our roots, maintaining the signature quad high visibility headlights.
Apologies for the double post and apologies for the terrible photoshops. I’m in a terrible time crunch at the moment so excuse the terrible quality.
Still better than anything i can do on photoshop
