The most significant launch at Detroit this year was the third-generation stylish and ergonomical cars. Ford had released a variation of its 5.0-powered Mustang, starting with the California Special for 2011. The GT/CS was last introduced as a 2007 model and featured a unique appearance and wheel package available only on the premium GT coupe and convertible. Ford hasn't officially released any details on the new GT/CS, but after inspecting the car in person on the show floor of the Detroit Auto Show, it looks like the 2011 model will have similar features.
Up front the GT/CS gets a larger and more aggressive spoiler painted in matte black as well as a horizontal bar grille featuring the pony logo on one side. The rear is enhanced by a new lower fascia with a GT500-style diffuser and a taller decklid spoiler. Finally, GT/CS graphics, a set of side scoops and a set of 10-spoke wheels round out the exterior enhancements. We'll let you know as soon as we hear more details about the car from Ford, including pricing, but until then you can browse through the gallery of high-res photos below.

Truck and Car of the Year awards
General Motors started off the 2007 North American International Auto Show with a bang when its new full-size pickup, the Chevrolet Silverado, and its new midsize sedan, the Saturn Aura, won the North American Truck and Car of the Year awards.
"I just want to go, 'YES!'," said Jill Lajdziak, Saturn vice president for sales, service and marketing, while she pumped her fist in the air. "Sometimes you have to speak from the heart. This is a great day for General Motors, for Chevrolet and for Saturn"
Chevrolet General Manager Ed Peper was a little more restrained but also pleased as he accepted Chevrolet's award. "Inside, we have always felt we had the best truck, but this award validates those feelings," he said.
The North American Car and Truck of the Year awards are voted by 49 independent journalists from the United States and Canada.

Mitsubishi Concept-RA
North American International Auto Show will take place in North Cobo Center, Detroit, Jan. 19-27, 2008. And this Mitsubishi’s red-hot new Concept-RA will be exposed at the centre stage on its stand at the show. It will be debut.
For maximum driving control and dynamics active steering and active suspension are dropped into the pot for good measure. With no shame in diesels these days powering sports cars, the Concept-RA gets a new low-emissions 2.2-liter 4-cylinder DOHC 16-valve turbodiesel featuring variable vane geometry while producing 150 kW (204 PS) and maximum torque of 420 Nm (42.8 kg-m). To save weight and increase crash worthiness, the body is an aluminum space frame along with the hood while the fenders and other outer panels such as door skins are made from recyclable plastic resin.
