BAIC Mercedes G Class Replica 1

BAIC B80VJ – Chinese Knock-Off Mercedes-Benz G-Class

Regular readers of Unfinished Man know just how much we like the Mercedes-Benz G-Class and I’m sad to announce the Chinese have ruined this beautiful off-roader by making a knock-off of it (we have a post of other Chinese car knock-offs here).  The replica G-Class will be showcased at the Beijing Auto Show in April and is produced by Beijing Automotive Industry Holding Co., or BAIC.

The awesome shitty replica is called BAIC B80VJ (an equally shitty name) and is currently a “concept”, it will see mass production later in the year.  The B80VJ does look very much like the G-Class based on the drawings/rendering below, except for the front part (which looks like one of the Jeeps, can’t remember what it’s called).  I’m guessing BAIC changed the front thinking they’ve improved upon the G-Class’s design.

The Boss Is Back – Ford Mustang Boss 302

Mustang Boss 302 Front

Pony car enthusiasts have been waiting for this day for a long time, Ford finally announcing the return of the 2012 Mustang Boss 302.  Not only is the Boss back, it looks hotter than ever.  The new car features plenty of upgrades to excite the boy racer in many of us, not just pony car enthusiasts.

The Mustang Boss has a more powerful 5.0 liter V8 engine, producing 440 horsepower and 380 pound-feet of torque.  The upgraded engine has increased horsepower but 10 lb-ft less torque than the 5.0 liter Mustang GT, but this car is designed to be a track car and is meant to be revved hard.

BMW El Camino 330i Pickup Truck

E46-BMW-330i-Pickup-Truck

You can take a hick out of country but you can’t take country out of a hick… OK, I made that up (I think) but it is very appropriate when you look at this BMW car truck.

A member of E46fanatics loves the sophisticated look of his BMW but but also prefers truck so he put his own twist on what looks like a modern day El Camino.  He started out with a crashed BMW 330i coupe (E46) and combined it with the rear end of a Chevy Colorado and the rest is history.  All kidding aside, the BMW El Camino does look kind of cool and I’m sure a lot of hard work went into the project.  The most impressive part about this project is the fact that they spent less than $10,000 on the entire project.

A Four Wheel Drive Ferrari Hatchback? The Ferrari Four (FF)

When the name Ferrari is mentioned, most of us think unpractical, fast and really beautiful cars.  Well, Ferrari has gone ahead and did something no one thought they’d ever do, they’ve created a hatchback that has Four Wheel Drive!  The FF (Ferrari Four) is the next generation of Ferrari GT cars and it replaces the 612 Scaglietti.

The FF has been caught testing with a lot of camouflage and automotive journalists were predicting a hatchback, but I thought Ferrari was doing that to throw people off.  I never would’ve thought they would actually produce a hatchback.

Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Coupe

When Mercedes-Benz introduced the updated version of the C-Class (W204) in 2007, I fell in love with the car the moment I laid my eyes on it. The smooth lines and aggressive look was night and day difference compared to the previous generation.

For 2012, Mercedes has improved upon the look and also introduced the Coupe version. It was a matter of time before AMG got their hands on the all new 2012 C-Class.
