We love the 2018 Audi TT RS. We love its 400 horsepower turbocharged inline-five, it’s seven-speed dual-clutch transmission and its clean, driver-focused interior. Still, there’s always room for improvement and refinement. It seems Audi agrees, as a refreshed version of Audi’s hottest little coupe was spotted lapping the Nürburgring with some updated bodywork.

The camouflage can’t hide what this car really is. Just take one look at that rear wing. It’s actually slightly different than the current TT RS‘ wing, with some small end plates presumably improving the car’s aero. It looks like both the front and rear bumpers will get updates, though it’s difficult to make out any real details through the camouflage.

We don’t have any further details on the car, but don’t expect too much to change under the skin. The engine, transmission and quattro all-wheel drive system should all carry over, maybe with a small boost in power. Hell, we might even see a stripped-down lightweight package to improve the car’s performance.

]]> https://briefnews.eu/audi-tt-rs-spied-lapping-the-ring-with-updated-bodywork/feed/ 0 Volkswagen I.D. Crozz coming to Frankfurt with more production-ready bodywork https://briefnews.eu/volkswagen-i-d-crozz-coming-to-frankfurt-with-more-production-ready-bodywork/ https://briefnews.eu/volkswagen-i-d-crozz-coming-to-frankfurt-with-more-production-ready-bodywork/#respond Wed, 06 Sep 2017 16:46:52 +0000 http://briefnews.eu/volkswagen-i-d-crozz-coming-to-frankfurt-with-more-production-ready-bodywork/ Volkswagen has already confirmed that the first of its electric I.D. models will go on sale in 2020, and that the plain I.D. car will be the introductory model. We’ve had anonymous sources tell us that the I.D. Crozzcrossover would be next, and now the company has pretty much confirmed that. VW is bringing the I.D. Crozz to the Frankfurt auto show with some updates that the company’s press release says “points more towards a production model.”

Volkswagen I.D. Crozz rendering

VW says the changes that are closest to production are in the front and rear fascias. The company has only released a design rendering and the above teaser video for the time being, saving the full reveal for the show. From what we can tell, what changes have been made aren’t drastic. The headlights appear more realistic and designed for real illumination. The center bar that runs through the VW logo is now illuminated, too. Otherwise, the wide hood, bulging fenders, and general lower grille shape all look very much like the original concept.

This particular VW I.D. concept is worth keeping an eye on, though. According to our anonymous sources, the United States is not very likely to get the regular I.D. car, and even if we do, the I.D. Crozz will be leading the electric Volkswagen charge in the U.S. Those sources also told us that the production I.D. Crozz should be released at the end of 2020 or the start of 2021.

If you’re restoring a Ford Mustang, or pretty much any Ford, the guy you call first is Kevin Marti. He’s the man in blue in the photo above, taken at a Ford dealership in Mexico. Next to him, in the car shirt, is Ralph Garcia, Jr., who has the Mustang they’re posing with—the elusive stunt car from the 1968 movie Bullitt. 

–

Marti’s company, Marti Auto Works, is situated near the end of a runway at Luke Air Force Base in the desert west of Phoenix. He produces parts that restorers need. Even more important, though, is that Marti has a licensing agreement with Ford through which he can share detailed information about how each car was equipped when it rolled off the assembly line. A Marti Report is considered infallible truth among Ford faithful. So it’s his word that mattered most when determining the truth of the claim that one of two Ford Mustangs used for filming the Steve McQueen movie Bullitt had been found in Mexico.

–

“I’ve had people order reports for Bullitt-serial-number cars,” Marti said. “I ask them, ‘Do you actually have this car?’ Anyone can order a report. What they typically say is, ‘I’m wanting to make a clone, and I want to know how the car was originally delivered.’ ”

–

Marti has been at this long enough that he has memorized the serial numbers of certain cars, including Mustangs that raced in the original Trans-Am series and cars that had significant roles in movies. A few weeks ago, he was asked for a report on a serial number he knew by heart. So Marti asked if the caller had the car.

–

“The guy said, nonchalantly, ‘Yes,’ ” Marti recalled. “Do you know what this car is?” Marti asked. “He did not.”

–

But Marti did. The car in question was the stunt car from the movie Bullitt, the car that flew over the hilly streets of San Francisco before sending the villain-driven Dodge Charger into a fiery finish of exploding gas-station pumps while the Mustang skidded safely to a stop.

–

“Before you do anything, you should have someone take a look at this car,” Marti suggested. “He asked me to be the person.”

–

So Kevin Marti headed off to Mexicali, Mexico, where Ralph Garcia, Jr., has one of his two custom-car facilities, a paint shop just across the border from Calexico, California. Garcia’s primary shop is in Paramount, California, between Los Angeles and Long Beach. He customizes pickups, Chevrolet Camaros, Dodge Chargers, and other vehicles, including the installation of modern suspension components, and for nearly a dozen years he has specialized in turning vintage Mustangs into clones of Eleanor, the car from the 1974 movie Gone in 60 Seconds. That was what he planned and had started to do with the Bullitt car.

Around a dozen years ago, Garcia said, he had a 1966 Mustang and a ’71 Mach 1, “and my parts supplier said, ‘Why don’t you build one of those Eleanors and make a good profit on it?’ Eleanor was a big thing. I had a ’67 Mustang convertible and turned it into an Eleanor and sold it within two days,” Garcia said. “The next car was a fastback like the [Gone in 60 Seconds] movie car, and it sold in the first week. From that point, I started building Eleanors.”

–

Garcia said his partner in the Bullitt project, Hugo Sanchez, is the one who found what was left of the car in the southern tip of Baja, not far from Cabo San Lucas. Sanchez had offered the car to others, but not knowing what it really was, “nobody wanted to buy it.

–

“Two weeks later,” Garcia recalled, “he called and said: ‘Don’t touch it! It’s the movie car. I got a Marti Report.’ ”

–

This modified rear valance was part of the car as it was found in Baja California. It was created when the car was damaged during one of the jump scenes and was on the car for the rest of the filming of the movie.

This modified rear valance, part of the car as it was found in Baja California, helped Marti with the identification. It was created when the car was damaged during one of the jump scenes and stayed on the car for the remainder of filming.

–

Max Balchowsky of Old Yeller fame had been contracted by Warner Brothers to prepare two 1968 Mustang fastbacks for use in Bullitt, starring Steve McQueen. After filming was finished, the cars were returned to Balchowsky, who complained that he didn’t have room in his shop to store them. The studio’s response was to offer to sell him the cars so it could get them off its books. Balchowsky bought the cars. The hero car, used for all but the chase scenes, could be salvaged, so he fixed it up and sold it. But the jumper car had been too badly damaged and was sent to a local wrecking yard.

–

Although the car supposedly could not have been repaired sufficiently to license it for road use in California, it eventually was taken to Mexico and was put back on the road. Over time, the Baja Peninsula’s salty seaside air apparently took its toll on the car’s sheetmetal.

–

After wearing Highland Green paint for its role in the movie, the car had been repainted, first in red and later in white. After doing body work, Garcia’s shop has returned it to its original color.

Kevin Marti’s opportunity to inspect the car was unusual, to say the least. The car was in the showroom of a Ford dealership, along with several dozen people, including a full mariachi band. Garcia said the festivities were held as part of the car’s “farewell to Mexico” before it was transported to Garcia’s California shop.

–

“It was kind of unnerving,” Marti said about crawling around inside and under the car with such an audience and with live music playing. The car had no drivetrain or interior, and rusted-away sheetmetal had been replaced, but Marti was able to confirm that the VIN stamping in the engine compartment and the original door data plate, even though it had been painted over a couple of times, validate his belief that the remains are, indeed, those of the Bullitt stunt car.

“It’s pretty much a complete car,” Garcia said, adding that he has the original seats and has located a source for a properly dated engine. “But without the drivetrain. And the rear end wasn’t there. And it had rust. We removed all the rust and put in original parts from a ’68. We’re about to gather all the remaining parts that we need,” he said, adding that he is getting guidance on the restoration from Glen Kalmack, a Bullitt Mustang specialist from British Columbia.

–

“The car was going to be built for a customer in Georgia as an Eleanor. But it wasn’t meant to be. It was meant to be for myself and Hugo Sanchez. We’ve been blessed with this Bullitt car. We plan to keep it and restore it back to the way it was from the movie, and from that point we’re going to see what the Lord has to offer us. We’d like to put it in a TV show about finding Mustangs and other cars and about restoring the lost Bullitt.”

It’s far larger in person than it appears to be in photos. It rivals the Ford F-150 in overall length and width, and remember this is a sedan. If the same characteristic holds true for the upcoming Rolls Royce Cullinan SUV, as these new spy photos show, this is going to be a luxury apartment on wheels.

We’ve seen photos of the Cullinan before, and this one doesn’t appear to be too far removed from that model. The brick-like shape remains, as do all the typical Rolls Royce touches like the upright grille and suicide doors. Out back, we can see rectangular exhaust tips and a low-opening tailgate. The prototype taillights appear to flow into the tailgate. The overall style is all about clean lines and as creating as few curves as possible. It’s probably going to be described as handsome far more than it will be described as pretty.

It should be no surprise that the Cullinan is as big as it its. It’s supposed to share a platform with the upcoming Phantom replacement. Expect all wheel drive and a turbocharged V12, though a plug-in hybrid variant is rumored to be in the works. Expect lots of aluminum to try and keep the weight down. The prototype looks pretty far along, so look for the final version sometime within the next year or so.
