Of course we are particularly interested in the car show. So it the jump for lost more coverage.

and like that the Mustang Boss 302 gets the ax from Ford’s lineup
It was real fun while it lasted but the Boss 302 is no more. Well as of 2014. Fords bad ass little brother to the GT500 was only slated to be around for two years and sadly Ford kept their word. The 2014 dealer ordering guides were leaked and not on it is the Boss. It’s sad because I think if I were to get a Mustang it would have to be the Boss, but it’s good news if you own one because it’s sure to be highly collectible down the road.
RIP Boss 302

Lamborghini Aventador Roadster
Just a quick delicious rumor for tonight. Word on the street is the new Lamborghini Aventador Roadster will debut in Miami next week! That makes sense with the sunny skies and warm weather in Miami. Also Miami is one of Lambo’s biggest markets. Unlike your typical Lambo drop top we expect the Aventador roadster to have removable carbon fiber panels for open air driving pleasure.
More as it happens.

Supercharged Scion FRS coming soon from TRD?
Candidate for car of the Year the Scion FRS has quickly become a favorite in the tuner crowd and with good reason. It’s stylish exterior, decent price, and sportiness have everything young enthusiast want. I’ve often said the car would be darn near perfect with an extra 50hp and TRD obviously reads Infinite Garage so word is there is a Supercharger coming.
TRD already makes a whole host of goodies for your FRS. They also have made and do make supercharger kits for Toyotas and Scions so it’s a no brainer. Also with Subaru working on a turbo BRZ Scion has to keep pace with it’s sister car. We will keep you up to date as we learn more.
