2010 Infiniti EX35 Journey AWD - Infiniti Crossover SUV Review - Automobile Magazine
If you think of the EX35 as a tall coupe, it's easy to love.

Nissan hasn't really marketed it as such (and I commend them for that), but the EX35 could easily be considered part of the "premium four-door crossover coupe" crowd, along with the likes of the BMW X6 and the Acura ZDX. Of course, the attractive first-generation Infiniti FX35/45 could also be lumped into that group, if not for the fact that adults can actually fit in the FX's back seats.inline_mediumwraptextright32218137/reviews/editors_notebook/1002_2010_infiniti_ex35_journey_awd1002_08_z+2010_infiniti_eX35_journey_aWD+front_three_quarter_view.jpgTrue

2011 Ford Shelby GT500 - 2010 Chicago Auto Show Coverage, New Car Reviews, Concept Cars - Automobile Magazine
The parade of updated 2011 Ford Mustangs will march on at the Chicago auto show with the Shelby GT500.

The parade of updated 2011 Ford Mustangs will march on at the Chicago auto show with the Shelby GT500 receiving a handful of revisions highlighted by a new aluminum block for the 5.4-liter engine. By switching from iron to aluminum, Ford engineers have shaved an impressive 102 pounds from the engine's weight. There's also an upsized intercooler that lowers intake temperatures and a new exhaust that delivers a heartier growl. Those two changes allow output to rise 10 hp to 550 hp while torque remains unchanged at 510 lb-ft. A six-speed manual is still the only transmission.inline_mediumwraptextright32225952/features/news/1002_2011_ford_shelby_gt5002011-ford-shelby-GT500-convertible-front-three-quarter.jpgTrue
