SUBARU ANNOUNCES PRICING ON 2015 BRZ® AND SPECIAL EDITION BRZ SERIES.BLUE

BRZ Series.Blue launches as special edition with 1,000 units for US market

Improved suspension refinement added to full BRZ lineup

Cherry Hill, N.J. - Subaru of America, Inc. today announced pricing for the 2015 BRZ. Starting at $25,695, the BRZ lineup focuses on the fundamentals of great sports car design: low vehicle weight, an ultra-low center of gravity and precision steering. Powered by a 200-horsepower 2.0-liter BOXER engine, the Subaru BRZ marked a return to the fundamentals of sports car design, emphasizing low vehicle weight, an ultra-low center of gravity and precision steering.

New for 2015 is the introduction of the BRZ Series.Blue limited to 1,000 cars for the continental United States. An exclusive combination of STI®-branded functional aerodynamic body design, black-painted STI-branded 17-inch wheels and unique interior trim creates a striking look for the BRZ Series.Blue, which arrives in Subaru dealerships in July. Subaru will offer 500 painted WR Blue Pearl and 500 in Crystal White Pearl exclusively with a 6-speed manual transmission.

The BRZ Series.Blue boosts the car's aerodynamic performance with black STI-branded front, side, and side-rear under spoilers, which contribute to additional front downforce, and underbody panels that, while not seen, reduce the coefficient of drag (Cd) from 0.28 to 0.27.

The Series.Blue also brings impressive appearance upgrades that enhance its performance image. Emphasizing the BRZ's pure sports car nature, red-finish brake calipers can be seen behind the spokes of the STI- branded black alloy wheels. The BRZ Series.Blue builds on the BRZ Limited model and features exclusive trim and special details throughout. Its leather and Alcantara upholstery includes blue leather seat bolsters and head restraints.

Blue stitching accents the seats and the blue and black leather-wrapped steering wheel, as well as the shift lever boot and leather-wrapped parking brake handle. The blue motif carries to the center console kneepads and door trim, accented by an embroidered silver BRZ logo on the front seatbacks. Carpeted floor mats pick up the BRZ logo and blue stitching, as well. The 2015 BRZ Blue.Series 6MT starts at $29,490.

Handling has been improved for 2015 with revised suspension dampers for smoother motion and absorption to help achieve optimum contact to uneven roads for a more enjoyable driving experience. Also contributing to the BRZ's handling are 4-wheel independent suspension and 17" summer tires with 15-spoke dark gray-finished aluminum-alloy wheels.

For the 2015 model year, all BRZ trims receive larger stainless tailpipe tips, simulated carbon-fiber center dash panel, and roof-mounted and body color shark fin antenna. The BRZ Premium 6MT has a starting price of $25,695. This is only a $100 increase compared to the 2014 model year.

The 2015 BRZ Limited 6MT starts at $27,695. The only factory option for the BRZ Limited model is the 6-speed automatic transmission priced at $28,795. Both are also a $100 increase compared to the prior model year.

Subaru's signature exterior color, WR Blue Pearl is updated while popular colors Ice Silver Metallic and Crystal White Pearl have been added to the BRZ line.

Available in Premium or Limited trim levels, BRZ models all boast performance features, such as the sport-tuned suspension with front strut brace and TORSEN limited-slip differential.

The Subaru BRZ Limited offers additional comfort and amenities. The BRZ Limited model adds a body-color trunk spoiler, standard fog light and Alcantara trimmed interior and Keyless Access. Inside, the seats are upholstered with Alcantara inserts and leather bolsters. Aha® infotainment smartphone integration included with the standard navigation system.

The BRZ Limited substitutes a dual-zone automatic climate control for the Premium model's manual HVAC system, and its standard All-Weather Package includes dual-mode heated front seats and heated side mirrors. A full security system augments the engine immobilizer that is standard in the Premium model. In the Limited, the dual visor vanity mirrors are illuminated, and front door courtesy lights illuminate when the doors are opened.

2015 BRZ models will begin arriving in dealerships this Summer.

Posted: 30 May 2014 Press Release:

Volkswagen celebrates many premieres at AMI 2014

World premiere of the premium special model "Golf Edition"

World premiere of the Beetle Cabriolet Karmann

European premiere of the new Touareg

German debut of Beetle Dune, Golf GTE and Scirocco

The new Volkswagen special model Beetle Cabriolet Karmann The new Volkswagen special model Beetle Cabriolet Karmann

The Volkswagen brand is represented by six premieres at the AMI (Auto Mobil International) motor show in Leipzig that begins today: in honour of the 40th anniversary of the Golf, Volkswagen is issuing the new premium special model "Golf Edition"; another world premiere car that can be viewed is the Beetle Cabriolet Karmann. The new, technically perfected Touareg is celebrating its European debuts. Celebrating their first motor show appearances for the German public are the new Scirocco, the new Golf GTE1 with a plug-in hybrid drive and the Beetle Dune concept car with a higher-set body and distinctive off-road design.

The special "Golf Edition" model combines the typical characteristics of the successful bestseller with the exclusivity of the premium class. Top xenon headlights with daytime running lights, machine polished 17-inch "Singapore" design wheels (optional: 18-inch wheels) and tinted rear and side windows all discreetly identify the exterior of the anniversary model. In the interior, the premium ambience is underscored by Alcantara leather seats, leather-trimmed steering wheel, leather gear shift boot, black roof lining and illuminated door sill plates. The first-class features also include the "Premium" multifunction display, "Composition Media" radio system and assistance systems such as the Light & Sight package (includes automatic running light switching and intermittent windscreen wiper with rain sensor), Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and "Blind Spot Detection" (informs driver of vehicles in the "blind spot" which makes lane changes easier).

Volkswagen is also celebrating the world premiere of the Beetle Cabriolet Karmann2 at the AMI show. Just as in the Golf Cabrio Karmann before it, Volkswagen is paying tribute to the body manufacturing company Karmann with this new special model. Between 1949 and 1980, the company produced many Beetle Cabriolet cars for Volkswagen. Exterior identifying features of the Beetle Cabriolet Karmann include 18-inch "Disc" design wheels with chrome caps, sport seats, leather-trimmed steering wheel, aluminium pedals and dash pad with Beetle look in matt aluminium. The electric top sports the new colour Sioux Brown, both inside and outside, it comes with a colour coordinated tarpaulin and may be combined with seven different exterior body paints. The special model is based on the "Design" equipment line, and it contains a wind deflector and the Park Pilot parking distance monitor. Ordering of the Beetle Cabriolet Karmann begins next month, and it covers all engine-gearbox variants. On the other hand, the Beetle Dune, which is celebrating its German premiere at the AMI show, is a near-production concept car that shows everything that is feasible in this car.

In its home market, Volkswagen is showing good form so far this business year. Through April, the Volkswagen passenger car brand increased its deliveries by 2.0 per cent, delivering 184,100 (180,500) vehicles to customers. This represents a 2.0 per cent increase over the prior year. Volkswagen has been a guest at the AMI show in Leipzig since 1991. Its exhibit area is around 2,200 m² in size this year. On visitor days, Volkswagen is showing over 30 vehicles from its current model range here.

Volkswagen is offering interested visitors to the AMI show test drives in the e-up!3, Golf Sportsvan and the new Polo, Golf TGI and Golf Estate. Over a circuit course in the vicinity of the motor show site, experts of Volkswagen Driving Experience accompany visitors as they drive and explain the vehicle technology to them.

In Saxony, Volkswagen operates three production sites: in Zwickau, Chemnitz and Dresden. Volkswagen is the largest car maker and one of the key employers in Saxony – employing around 9,000 people – and Saxony is a modern hub site for the Golf, Golf Estate and Passat models, and a place where Volkswagen manufactures luxury bodies and vehicles as well as engines. To date, over four million Volkswagen cars, over 100,000 luxury vehicles and over twelve million Volkswagen engines have been produced in Saxony.

1964 James Bond Aston Martin DB5 | Car Pictures

Posted: 17 Sep 2010 06:52 PM PDT

1964 James Bond Aston Martin DB5

FMP 7B (DB5/1486/R) – THE REAL JAMES BOND CAR

As seen on screen wearing the UK registration BMT 216A, the DB5 was the "stand-in" car used in Goldfinger and retrospectively became identified as the Road Car, as the first Effects Car proved to be cumbersome to handle, laden with its heavy gadgets. Interestingly, FMP 7B was fitted with the more powerful Vantage engine (400/1469/V, although running on the standard triple SU-carburettor setup, same as the Effects Car). This is logical as the Road Car was to figure prominently in the fast driving sequences. Indeed, FMP 7B was given substantial screen time in Goldfinger, notably from the scenes at the Stoke Park Golf Club and, even more recognisably, when Bond is spying on Mr. Goldfinger from the picturesque Furka Pass in Switzerland.

This 1964 Aston Martin DB4 is the only known remaining of the two DB5s which appeared on-screen in Goldfinger and Thunderball. Was Sold at a price of £2,912,000 in 2010.
