For those of us who are just so tired of Steeda (now based out of my father’s home town of Valdosta, GA) waiting and waiting to release its own unique image of the most widely tuned car in the world, the Q-series, there is now the Sport Edition Mustang, sporting parts already available in the parts catalogue.

For the low low price of $6,995 (and I’m not being sarcastic), you get a completely revamped suspension, including upgraded billet lower control arms, sport springs, as well as 20-inch chrome wheels. Also included in the package is a sport shifter, underdrive performance pulleys, performance air cleaner, and those easy-to-miss Steeda graphics along the side skirts.

While there are no real power upgrades available on this model, previous Steeda Mustangs have made due with superb handling and finesse, two features not usually associated with bull-nosing pony cars with live-rear-axles. If you’re wanting a more road-racer feel and less drag-racer, then Steeda probably has exactly what you are looking for.

Late this summer, the 2010 Lincoln MKZ will receive a luxurious upgrade with the release of the Executive Appearance Package. Looking to project a more austere air, the Executive Appearance Package’s biggest selling point is the addition of genuine walnut appointments, available in either Dark Charcoal or Cashmere color. Other interior accessories also include Scotland’s Bridge of Weir (we’ve never heard of it either, but it was capitalized, so it seemed important) leather upholstery seats leather-trimmed seats, unique tuxedo stitching , unique console armrest insert, Genuine Swirl Walnut wood instrument panel accents, Genuine Swirl Walnut wood console, and premium front and rear floor mats with the Lincoln star. Exterior options also receive the 1% treatment with comically named paint choices, including Sangria Red and Tuxedo Black (among others).

The 35th annual Ford and Team Shelby nationals are coming up in Tulsa, and Shelby Automobiles has released six new models to commemorate the event, including the new 2010 GT500 Super Snake.

Most of the models are essentially upgraded versions of previous generation Mustangs, ones current owners of GT’s, Shelby GT’s, and Shelby GT500s can bring in and have modified by the Shelby staff out in Vegas.

Autonet’s new mobile in-car router creates a hotspot with 150 foot range and uses both 2.5G and 3G networks so you can bootleg your Radiohead on the go. Cadillac recently rolled it out as an exclusive dealer-installed option for the CTS, but the simplistic nature of the installation (one wire for power) lends itself to practically any automotive/marine/transformer application. So, is this the future of connectivity on the go? Yes and no.

OK, to clarify, this is an aftermarket “special edition,” which should nicely dovetail with the 3,765 other official special editions. And honestly, Iacocca did champion the Mustang in its early stages, helping it to come to market against the naysaying of some of Ford’s upper management. So why not an Iacocca Mustang? “Once in a while a car comes along that changes everything, and that was the original Mustang,” quipped the man himself in the press release. Looks like the folks at Gaffoglio Family Metalcrafters sure smoothed the hell out of that body, and I think the silver paint is 90% just to show off the more taut body. What’s under the hood?

You may remember the famous Yenko Chevies of the 1960s, where Don Yenko skirted GM’s restrictions on engine size and produced COPO-code big-block Camaros and Novas. Well, Randall Reed Ford is going to offer their own Yenko-style Ford Mustang, the Reed Speed SSE, through some affiliated dealerships, and theoretically across the nation. The result? A 700 HP, twin-turbo 2010 Ford GT created in partnership with Artisan Performance.

Opinions vary widely on the new Ferrari. Personally, I think it’s ugly as sin – at least in pictures. Haven’t seen one up close and that often makes a difference. But Edo Competition got their hands on a black California, and boy, have they made the front-mid-engined spyder look pretty sinister. There is always something sexy about a black exterior with a tobacco interior, and draped over that Maserati-like exterior it looks pretty fine. Performance has improved to … more on that in a second.

Add this monstrosity to the endless parade of high-dollar customs showing up in the news these days. Packed full of bad taste and frosted with excess, the Christian Audigier VIF 1 SUV is the perfect vehicle to show up to your frat’s alumni party. You’ll be the only one in attendance with 24k gold-plated exhaust! And check out that schnoz!

Some sharp set of eyes caught this gem on Ford’s 2011 Fiesta website: a potential turbo option? Ford has hinted before that a small-displacement version of its Ecoboost line of turbocharged engines could be finding their way into an American Fiesta, so there might actually be something here. Make the jump to see what was on the website.
