It's a new day for the Paris Auto Show . And alot of new cars , so lets get cracking .Starting with the CONCEPTS :
- Mercedes-Benz ConceptFASCINATION : Ever anyone wo
ndered that a 
Merc E-Class estate would ever look beautiful ? Well wonder no more , this Mercedes-Benz ConceptFASCINATION is the next generation E-Class estate . And at glance , you have to say , it looks gorgeous . What stands for me most , are the low door-sills , so the upper car looks like its only made of glass . But if you think the outside looks great , wait until you see the interior . They've used real stained wood . And instead of using plastic for some parts , they went of for metal . Now if the production model if this car comes out like that , BMW and Audi should start working from now .

iesel-hybrid forum . The Germans seem to be cleverer . With clean-diesel TDI technology , this mid-size luxury sedan does 59MPG . And 214 lb-ft , you'll be going fast . Although they're calling it a concept , but production will be starting end of 2008 .

e going with the tr
end of 4-door coupes . Look at Aston Martin's Rapid , Porsche Panamera and Lambo's Estoque . And now Peugeot . But wheres the British , German and Italian aim their cars towards performance . The French are aiming it towards design , fuel economy and supercar performance . First , this Peugeot isn't like anything I ever saw . It looks fabulous . And because it's a hybrid , it gets 52MPG . And somehow it weighs only 3,100 pounds . So because it's so light , 60MPH in 4 seconds ! No word if this perfect car will be produced or not .

the front-end . Today we see the back-end . Lets see if this 2,000,000 $ hypercar will debut at the end of the Paris Auto Show .* 2008 Jaguar XKR-S : Remember the legandry Jag XJ-
220 ? That was the fastest Jag ever built . Well now , h
ere comes the successor . It's a XKR with Spotier suspension . With 420 hp , and 175MPH top speed , this is the biggest competitor to its cousin , the Aston Martin V8 Vantage . Anyways , this car will only be sold in Europe . So no fun Jag here .

t this is their 
most exciting car yet . When they showed it they said "It comes from Sweden with LUV" . Just by hearing that , you know that this car isn't like any Volvo . And with its low roof-line , it shows that this competes with the BMW X6 . That's very cool . And we'll be seeing if it can beat the X6 when it rolls the steets next March .

ew Lance Ralliart is such a
success here . It's cheap , practical and has the same engine as its bigger brother , the EVO X . But it seems the Europeans like it more roundred . That's why there's this new Sportback edition for Europe . It's the same as a normal Ralliart just turned in as a hatchback .

SLR was revealed last week , but here on the show , people are seeing it live . And it looks superb . The long hood , holding 650hp . Then you'll notice that when this is a convertible , that the hatchback roof on the hardtop is gone . Honsetly , this is the great combination of beauty and aggresion . A soft roader when it's sunny , a godfather of violence when reaches 208MPH .

ying too hard to 
give their cars passion . And although I think that's a stupid name , but looking at it is not so bad . It looks very funky and urban . Even the red color is great on it . Somehow , it's very likeable . Finally , a Korean car with flair and charecter , which is something getting very hard for most automakers .

go
ing to front-wheels ? That should be very wild torque-steer . But the Quaife Automatic Torque Biasing limited-slip differential is said to remove all traces of torque-steer . So will this be like the old RS , faster than EVO & STI around tracks . That's what we'll be finding out in 2009.
