Mystery car (not really...)
Does anyone know what car this is? 
I do...
Intercooler up front and this car isn't out yet. Factory, (without turbo/SC) it comes with 200hp. With turbo/SC, it'll kill a Cobalt SS/SC. My theory is that car will have more aftermarket support upon release than the Cobalt will at that time (~Sept-Nov 2005).

a poorly chopped civic concept...
we already know what engine its getting (the current k20 in the 05 rsx's but prolly detuned...), and we know its not gonna be that under-rated, if it will be at all.
as far as ur comment about the having a turbo or not, thats just like saying that a cobalt ss with mods will still stomp this car. compare it stock for stock, then compare it with mods...dont compare modded vs stock...that just leaves yourself open for attack for wasting time. and your theory is simply that....a theory. now given, based on its ALREADY EXISTING engine platform, and the possiblity that the specs will stay around the same, there is a possiblity that more mods will be available quicker...but alas, who knows...and given that Hondata STILL has not cracked the 05 ECU, it might be a while still...
oh, and this doesn't really belong in "All Auto News"...more like the lounge or something...we already have one post on the civic concept i do believe...but i think it got locked...
But thanks...lol

i went in and looked at the new konig wheels for '05. The "tuner2 black" looks good. take a look.
oh and that si would be a contender, if they can keep the weight down, if not then i wouldn't want to be racing an SS in one.

I think it looks great. Now, all they need to do is post some reallistic pics. There is no way that anyone could drive that thing without ripping all of those add-ons off. It would be interesting to see if the thing looks nearly as nice with a realistic amount of ground clearance. I can imagine that it's prob torque-less as well...
