The Cross Up concept is a version of the Up city car.  The Cross Up concept was revealed at Frankfurt two years ago.  The production version will debut at Geneva this year, and is nearly identical to the concept.  The Cross Up has a 3 Cylinder 74HP engine mated to a 5-speed manual.  My personal opinion: I like this car, although for a city car i would think an automatic would be more beneficial.  I wish we could get more cars like this in America.

Aston has announced the SP10, a version of the V8 Vantage S, taking cues from the GT4.  The SP10 will only be available in Europe.  The SP10 will have a 6-speed manual, and a 4.7L V8 producing 430HP and 361 lb-ft of torque.  My favorite upgrade is the black brake calipers.
