The Frankfurt Motor Show is definitely going to be THE place to be. Among the exciting upcoming models we can add this gorgeous Mini Coupe Concept. Designed for the 50th birthday of the famous British make, the Mini Coupe Concept is really a beautiful car! With its very low, aluminum-made roof, the Coupe has a very good look.
Created as a serious rival to the Audi TT and the Peugeot RCZ, the Mini Coupe Concept has indeed a lot of assets. The face is really from Mini but the rest is original and it is announced as a rather luxury car.
Let's say a word about the engine. The Mini Coupe Concept will enjoy the 208 bhp, 1.6-litre turbo petrol engine from the John Cooper Works hot hatch. It should go quite fast as the aluminum roof makes this car very light.
Very nice.

Citroën has issued some pieces of information about the model that will be shown at the Frankfurt Motor Show. The Citroën DS3 is said to be a serious rival to the Mini of the Fiat 500, and it is undoubtedly.
As well as for the small BMW-owned little car, the roof of the Citroën DS3 can be of a different colour than the rest of the body. Customers will be able to make their car look like they want to. The design itself is really eye-catching. We can say that Citroën is really finding a new, incredible style of its own, as it used to be in a more glorious time.
Under the bonnet, it's quite good too: two HDi diesels (from 90 to 110 bhp) and three petrol engines (from 95 to 150 bhp) will be available. As it is one of the most important things for Citroën, the DS3 is rather eco-friendly, with no more than 160g/km of CO2.
That's one good little car! I'm really looking forward the Frankfurt show with all these new models coming up!
