  • 12 February 2015: 2016 FORD GT: Supercar enthusiasts will be crowding around the 2016 Ford GT at the 2015 Chicago Auto Show. From its tear-drop shape to its aircraft-inspired fuselage and visibility-enhancing curved windshield, every slope and shape is designed to minimize drag and optimize downforce and stability. The GT is equipped with a 600-plus-horsepower twin-turbocharged EcoBoost V-6 engine that offers remarkable efficiency given its power output. Mated to the V-6 is a seven-speed dual-clutch transaxle that provides for near-instantaneous gear changes and exceptional driver control. The narrow-profile canopy reduces frontal area and caps a purposeful interior that provides state-of-the-art technology to ensure control, comfort and safety. Note that the active rear spoiler is keyed to speed and driver input, deploying and adjusting its height and/or pitch angle depending on conditions. Lightweight carbon fiber construction is used for body components, the two-seat passenger cell and brake discs. Driver and passenger access is provided by upward-swinging doors. An F1-style steering wheel integrates all necessary driver controls, creating a stalkless steering column that allows uncluttered access to the transmission paddle-shift controls. A digital instrument cluster provides a wealth of driver-focused data. The display is configurable for multiple driving environments and different driving modes. Beginning production in 2016, Ford GT arrives in select global markets to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Ford GT race cars placing 1-2-3 at the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans.<br />

  • 12 February 2015: Displayed by a female model - 2015 Alfa Romeo 4C: Alfa Romeo likes to call their all-new 2015 4C Coupe, “The Attainable Supercar.” With groundbreaking Italian design and clever technological solutions, the company can offer the 4C Coupe for a fraction of the price of other exotic supercars. With design nods to history, the 4C and 4C Launch Edition makes reference to the style of the 1967 33 Stradale, and combines Alfa Romeo engineering and Maserati manufacturing into one. Outer body is made of Sheet Molded Compound (SMC) that is 20-percent lighter than steel. The monocoque of the Alfa Romeo 4C – weighing only 236 lbs – is a single carbon fiber body, just like a supercar, in which space is cut out for the driver and a passenger.  With its transverse-mounted mid-engine configuration, the new, direct injection, 237-horsepower 1.75-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, entirely made of aluminum, brings extraordinary performance with a peak torque of 258 lb-ft. to the rear wheels. Sole transmission is a six-speed dual-clutch sequential manual. The combination puts the accent on smooth running for the under 2,500-lb. sports car. And, while emitting baritone exhaust sounds, the 4C can dashes from 0-60 mph in 4.1 seconds, and reach a top speed of 160 mph.  A rear storage compartment behind the seating accommodates small parcels. The 2015 Alfa Romeo 4C will have a limited production run, including the 500 Launch Editions scheduled for U.S. buyers only.<br />

  • 06 February 2005: The Shelby GR-1 concept establishes itself as one of the most contemporary and dramatic front-engine, two-seat, fastback supercars. This running prototype impresses with a 605-horsepower, 390-cubic-inch all-aluminum V-10 engine, a road-tested version of the Ford GT suspension and a stunning new polished-aluminum body.<br />
<br />
GR-1 combines modern sculptured surfaces and a muscular fastback design into a car that could succeed the Ford GT once its production cycle concludes. All of the sophisticated mechanicals of this extraordinary coupe are wrapped in a sleek, muscular aluminum skin left bare and polished bright. The result is a forward-looking supercar with attention-grabbing Ford presence and Carroll Shelby inspiration.<br />

  • 11 February 2009:2009 NISSAN GT-R: Nissan launched the new GT-R in the U.S.A. as an ?ultimate supercar for anyone, anywhere, at anytime.? Billed as a multi-dimensional performance machine, the GT-R?s newly developed midship package offers the world?s first application of an independent transaxle 4-wheel-drive system. Aerodynamic-shaped body combines steel, carbon fiber and aluminum panels for stiffness and lightness. Beneath the hood is the ?VR38,? a new 3.8-litre twin turbo V-6 engine that produces 470 horsepower. Depositing the 360 lb ft of torque to the ground is the 6-speed dual clutch transmission, with three modes: Normal (for maximum efficiency), Snow (for shifting on slippery surfaces), and R mode (for maximum performance with fastest shifts). Projected 0-to-60 miles per hour times is in the sub-4.0 second range. Large, 4-passenger cockpit contains sculpted performance bucket seats, a large center-mounted tachometer and specially designed Bose sound system.. The Chicago Auto Show is a charity event of the Chicago Automobile Trade Association (CATA) and is held annually at McCormick Place in Chicago Illinois.

  • 11 February 2009: 2009 CHEVROLET CORVETTE: Hogging the spotlight this year is the Corvette ZR1 supercar, pictured elsewhere. Changes and enhancements to the '09 Corvette reflect continual improvements that speak to Chevrolet's unflagging commitment to the sports car. A new lower priced 1LT convertible joins the list of available models. Standard in the Coupe and Convertible is the 6.2L LS3 small-block V-8 rated at 430 horsepower and 424 pound-feet of torque. With the optional two-mode exhaust system, power ratings increase to 436 horses and 428 pound-feet. Standard is a six-speed manual, with six-speed paddle shift automatic optional. Back again for 2009 is the 505-horsepower Corvette Z06 Coupe, which now is a bit overshadowed by the ZR1.. The Chicago Auto Show is a charity event of the Chicago Automobile Trade Association (CATA) and is held annually at McCormick Place in Chicago Illinois.

  • 12 February 2015:  2015 AUDI R8 V10 Plus: Every inch a supercar, the 2015 Audi R8 Coupe and Spyder challenges convention with the use of new materials and technologies in a visionary way. The German company’s stylish ultra-sports car wears newly structured LED daytime running lights and LED headlights, hexagonal grille, redesigned side mirrors, large, round tailpipe trim and rear lights with innovative dynamic turn signals. Engineered to perform on the track as well as for comfortable weekend cruising, the R8 is offered with a choice of three different engines. Consumers can op for the 430 horsepower 4.2 liter R8 V-8, or one of the two versions of the 5.2L V-10s. The R8 V10 generates 525hp, while the R8 V10 Plus bumps that up to 550hp. All variations come linked to the new seven-speed S tronic double-clutch gearbox that improves performance with smoother shifts. An option is the gated six-speed manual transmission. The 2015 R8 V10 Plus, offered as a coupe only, comes with weight saving carbon fiber side blades, front splitter, rear diffuser, spoiler; a smaller fuel tank; manual Alcantara seats and ceramic brakes. A Bang & Olufsen audio system contains 12 speakers and an impressive 465 watts of power. As the top-of-the-line Audi model, the R8 is capable of catapulting from zero to 60 mph in 3.3 seconds and reach a top track speed of 196 mph.<br />

  • 12 February 2015: Displayed by female model - 2015 CHEVROLET CORVETTE Z06: Chevrolet’s 2015 Corvette Z06 enters supercar territory with race-proven design, advanced technologies and world-class performance. The Corvette Z06 is the most capable, world-class Corvette model, ever. It’s the first Z06 since 1963 offered in coupe and convertible models. This is the first Corvette Z06 to offer supercharged engine, and thanks to a stronger aluminum frame, a removable roof panel. The heart of the 2015 Corvette Z06 is the all-new LT4 6.2L supercharged V-8 engine, expected to deliver an estimated 625 horsepower and massive 635 lb-ft of torque to the rear-wheel drive. Standard seven-speed manual transmission includes the Active Rev Match feature, or there is an all-new eight-speed paddle-shift automatic transmission designed to enhance both performance and MPGs.  Strap-in tightly, as the Z06 blasts from 0-to-60 mph in 2.95 seconds with the eight-speed automatic and 3.2 secs. with the seven-speed shifter. To balance performance and efficiency, the LT4 leverages the same trio of advanced technologies introduced on the Corvette Stingray: Direct injection, Active Fuel Management, or cylinder deactivation, and continuously variable valve timing. These technologies – combined with the fuel-efficient multi-speed transmissions, aerodynamic design and lightweight construction – help make the new Z06 surprisingly fuel efficient. The 2015 Corvette Z06 with the available Z07 package adds larger winglets to the carbon front splitter, along with an adjustable, see-through center section on the rear spoiler for track use; with this package, the Corvette Z06 delivers the most amount of aerodynamic downforce of any production car that GM has tested.<br />
