It is a WRX, with the SAAB treatment-very cool! Along with the new 'stang-that thing is sweet. I'd like to see scion come up with a good engine to make that new car perform... to many cool cars to comment on!!!!

New Eclipse... Whoa!

Whoa! The New Eclipse... Hybrid... AWD... 470HP!!!!

OH! Wait.... It's just a concept car

Quote:
Mitsubishi’s Eclipse Concept-E sport coupe uses a hybrid, or mixed, powerplant in a different way.


An all-wheel-drive sports car, the concept has a 270-horsepower 3.8-liter gasoline V6 providing power to the front wheels, while an E-Boost electric motor drives the rear wheels. Overall horsepower is 470, or nearly as much as the Dodge Viper gets from a conventional gasoline engine, when the electric motor’s 200 horses are added in.


And, the system can deliver uninterrupted power even when the six-speed manual transmission is shifting gears. This is because the throttle-actuated electric motor isn’t affected by gear changes and so can be a constant source of power.
