Jaguar Project 7

Set to debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, the Jaguar Project 7 Concept celebrates Jaguar's seven victories at Le Mans between 1951 and 1990. Based on the F-Type, Project 7 showcases the creativity of the design and engineering teams at Jaguar, with minor tweaks to almost every aspect of the car. The performance has been upped from the original with more horsepower, lower ride hight, free flow exhaust and several aerodynamic changes including lower seated position and even a lower windshield. Uniquely the radical design only allows for an experience of one; the driver, so your date will have to find another way to join you at the movies.

Tron Lightcycles may not be invented yet, though for those of you who can't wait Revolights ($200 *Valentines Day Special) will light up your bike like a machine from the future. Powered by USB rechargeable batteries; two thin rings of LEDs are mounted to each side of the wheel and illuminate the front or rear of the wheel by utilizing magnets and an accelerometer.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray

In late 1953 the original Corvette was launched showing that American auto makers could build a vehicle to compete with the European and Italian standards of that day. Proving itself once agin, the 2014 Corvette Stingray ($TBA) marks the seventh generation of the Corvette family and displays the mark of the Stingray due to GM claiming it to be the best Vette ever.

Outside Van

Most people just know the Mercedes Sprinter Van as the daily run about for the Fed-Ex guy (or gal). If you have ever owned or driven one though, chances are you enjoyed it. The Sprinter is super roomy, purpose built, and surprisingly efficient for its size thanks to a diesel engine. Outside Van (~$5000+) is a custom Sprinter shop for the outdoors enthusiast. You bring them your Sprinter van and  tell them what activities you aim to do- whether it be haul lots of friends, bring crazy amounts of gear, or go car camping. After that, Outside Van goes crazy making tons of custom modifications that make your van unique and tailored just for you. The Mercedes Sprinter is pretty darn cool just to start with, but after Outside has done their work you have something special created by people with an equally great passion for exploring the world. As you may imagine they aren't hurting for business- It will run  a 1000 bucks just to get put on their jobs list.      ​

BMW C Evolution

Scooters have to be one of the funnest, and definitely fastest, ways to maneuver any urban environment.​ Small size and excellent economy make this mode of transportation a no brainer. BMW seeks to extend scootering efficiency even more with its development of the C Evolution ($tba). The all electric scooter has an impressive speed of 75 mph and a reported range of 62 miles. Unlike electric cars the C Evolution only takes 3 hours to reach a full charge and will juice up to 70% battery in just 35 minutes. A tablet like display adds to the futuristic fit and finish. The range can even be extended 10-20% with proper riding technique and regenerative technologies. What does all that electricity cost? About one cent per mile. Sorry, but that is as cheap as travel gets right there. Still, you will need to drive many many miles to offset the eventual upfront cost of this machine.
