This is a fair improvement over the output of the current models 485hp/434tq and this extra power could help the mighty GT-R move up the list of the fastest cars in the world (based on testing done at the famed Nürburgring in Germany). The 2011 Nissan GT-R will be the 2012 Nissan GT-R when it hits US shores next year.

Stealth Police Interceptor

Ford will be unveiling a stealthy concept version of its new Police Interceptor sedan at this month’s Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) trade show, which takes place in Las Vegas.







Designer Melvin Betancourt set out to give the Taurus-based car a sinister look, while at the same time masking its law enforcement purpose. Drawing inspiration from the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird strategic reconnaissance aircraft, the car is - naturally - finished in solid black. Smoked taillights and tinted glass complete the look.

The body has been lowered by an inch, and the concept Interceptor rides on 22” alloys with glossy black centres and chrome rims. Other modifications include a thicker mesh grille and a boot lid spoiler that both conceal LED emergency lights.

On the inside the theme continues, and the headlining and B-pillar covers are finished in black. The centre console has also been redesigned so that police equipment, such as the radio and computer terminal, is hidden away until it’s needed. Weapons can be unobtrusively stored in the glove box.

Deliveries of the production Police Interceptor sedan and the Explorer-based utility version are due to start late next year, which is when assembly of the Crown Victoria stops.
