I AM OT!
Merc ML
no specs on it yet
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________-
2006 Mustang Cobra
465HP, 6-speed manual running in the low 12's with a trap speed of 120mph! You choose the rear suspension set up, either IRS or Solid Rear Axle with the IRS apparently pulling over 1.0g in the corners. 5.4 Supercharged, 3 valve heads (with HUGE valves), forged internals similar to the 4.6 (Crank, rods, etc), modestly rated (under rated actually) ~465 HP/495 lb ft Torque, using a twin screw S/C similar to that on the Ford GT but pullied differently, hence the lower HP.

2007 Acura RDX
The RD-X was distinguished by an adjustable instrument panel, rear seating that transformed into a storage area and an i-VTEC capable of 200 horsepower. What is known for sure is that the new Acura SUV will be smaller and less expensive than the company's MDX SUV. Presumably, the new SUV will be based on the Honda CR-V, as the RD-X concept was.

Audi A4 Avant
The A4 Avant (wagon in German) offers families who need a little more cargo-carrying capacity the convenience of a rear hatch. It benefits from a new 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine.

Dodge Ram SRT-10
The Dodge Ram SRT-10 Quad Cab was developed to fill the void created by the standard-cab Ram SRT?s main pure truck shortcoming?its lack of towing capacity. The Quad Cab is a mite kinder and gentler than its racier sibling.
Besides the obvious cab difference between the two SRTs, the biggest change for the Quad Cab mechanically is the mating of a four-speed automatic transmission to the Viper block.
Dodge engineers say getting the transmission (adapted from Ram diesel applications) to work right was the trickiest part of building the truck. It had to handle the beastly 525 lb-ft of maximum torque and be able to tow 7500 pounds. In went a beefed-up torque converter and a two-piece driveshaft. Engineers included a custom tranny calibration, and gave its live rear axle a 4.56 ratio. The goal: improve launch feel, low-end acceleration and tow capacity. From behind the wheel, you?ll think it is transmission accomplished.
