Spied: Chevrolet Camaro Convertible

While the new Camaro has been outselling it's competitor the Ford Mustang, the Mustang has one thing that the Camaro doesn't: a convertible. So it's really no surprise that the Camaro has a ragtop version in the works.

A contributor from Camaro5.com recently caught a pre production version of the Camaro convertible out and about doing some testing with the top down. Follow the link for additional photos.

Spied: Ford Taurus ST

While the current Ford Taurus is nothing more than a rebadged Ford 500, the next generation will be an all new car based on nothing more than the much beloved Ford Mondeo. Ford has already announced that a version of it's upcoming Ecoboost engines will be available in the Taurus.



Now the word is that the Ecoboost version will be a 350hp twin turbo V6 to be badged as the ST, and it's got us thinking SHO all over again. The news is music to the ears of owned and enjoyed Ford's much beloved SHO.



The spy pictures taken by the folks at World Car Fans are quite a scoop. It looks like Ford designers opened up the lower air dam to help feed the force-fed powerplant. The next generation of the corporate grille is partly visible, too, and it appears as though the bars got thinner and less cartoonish in execution.



Headlights visible through the heavy camo appear to be of the LED kind, and they look far more modern than the current Taurus' 1990's design. Massive, MKS-like 20-inch rims help show this undercover Taurus has sporty pretenses, as does the duel exhaust out back. Also evident from the spy pics is the fact that the bulbous roofline from the current Taurus has been replaced with something far more shapely and contemporary.



We still have several months before we will be able to see the car without camo, but it's good news that there is already a performance counterpart in the works.

More photos of 2010 Mustang show up on web

More pictures of the ever elusive 2010 Mustang have been posted on the web, courtesy of the folks at Mustang Forums.



The pictures reveal a mule in some pretty ugly camo gear, much like what we saw at Road of America. Ford is working to build excitement in the new model by releasing only little tidbits of information about the car until it debuts later in the year.



The biggest detail by far is the new placement of the turn signals. Ford has moved them up next to the headlights in the grill and given them a very retro look. We can see enough of the grill through the camo to say that it should be reminiscent of Mustangs of yore.



There appear to be some new scoops in the bumper on either side of the radiator opening. In current Mustangs they hold foglights, but since the new car already has fog lights up by the headlights, it is speculated that they could be openings for brake ducts.



The bulge in the hood is clearly visible in the pics, giving validity to the previously posted pictures of the new alleged hood.
