2012 Peugeot 107 facelift II released

Just like the 2012 Citroën C1 facelift we just reported, the almost identical Peugeot 107 follows the same playbook by receiving its own facelift for the second time, improved fuel economy, lower CO2 emissions and upgraded interior.

Lexus ES


Lexus unveiled the fifth generation ES luxury sedan in 2006 and has battled it out with the Buick LaCrosse ever since. Now, according to a source who spoke with GM Authority, it seems that the company is preparing a sixth generation ES that will make the LaCrosse ?laughable? as a luxury vehicle. That sure doesn’t bode well for Buick considering they are currently trying to expand their clientele and not fall into the automotive abyss.

The first details on the next generation ES suggest that the vehicle will be more impressive that anyone could possibly imagine. It will be wider and longer than the current model, but that will only mean that it will be getting to where the LaCrosse is now. However, it will also be the quietest car Lexus has ever made, offering a system that Buick?s Quiet Tuning won?t be able to ?hold a candle to.? That being said, its most impressive feature will be placed under the hood. Lexus will be using the new Hybrid Synergy Drive full-hybrid technology that will allow the car to deliver a fuel economy of more than 40 mpg on the highway and even better in the city. ?The eAssist stuff won?t even come close.?

Expect to see the new Lexus ES launched sometime in 2013, but stay tuned as more details will surely follow!

Note: Current model pictured above.

Anyone ever dealt with D.E Seymour Models?

I was searching the web for a long sought after kit and found one on the D.E Seymour Models web site.  I've never heard of, much less dealt with them before.  Has anyone here done business with them and if so, how did it go?
