The Seat Leon Cupra is a free download.
One of the cars, the rally-inspired European 2007 SEAT Leon Cupra, will be available free and the rest of the car pack will run you 400 Microsoft Points. Here are some more details on the cars themselves:
2007 Seat Leon Cupra
Derived from the incredibly successful WTCC Leon racecar, the 2007 Seat Leon Cupra takes performance to a whole new level. The power is backed up with aggressive design lines, 18-inch alloy wheels, sport tuned exhaust and a rear diffuser derived from the WTCC model.
Take on all challengers with this new Audi.
2006 Audi #8 Audi Sport Team Joest Audi R10 TDI
During its debut season of 2006, the R10 cleaned house by winning the 12 Hours of Sebring, the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the Petit Le Mans and four additional ALMS events. In addition the R10 was the first diesel-powered car to win any of these events, no small task considering the challenges of racing a diesel engine. Low revs, transmission-twisting torque, and a broad powerband all contribute to make the R10 a fresh and exciting driving experience.
1970 Dodge Challenger R/T Hemi
Quite possibly the most excessive of all muscle cars engines, the Dodge 'Street Hemi' terrorized dragstrips and stoplights across the United States, and created an American legend. Introduced in the mid-sixties, the 426 cubic-inch engine featured twin Carter AFB carburetors and was rated at an extremely modest 425 horsepower. In reality the engine produced closer to 500 horsepower and when dropped in the lightweight Challenger chassis you had the most potent muscle car available in 1970.
2006 Dodge Challenger Concept
The 2006 Dodge Challenger Concept is a modern interpretation of everything that makes the classic Hemi Challenger so legendary. Throw in a 6.1 liter 425 horsepower Hemi V8, 6-speed manual transmission and a modern independent suspension and you have a real performer which is more than faithful to its classic counterpart.
This speedy Porsche is among the car downloads.
2006 Honda Civic Si Coupe
As a clean-sheet design, the 2006 Honda Civic Si Coupe is clearly the shape of things to come. One look at the 9,000 rpm tachometer and you know this car means business. Under the hood is one of the finest production engines in the world, the Honda K20Z3.
2007 Honda Civic Type-R
Beginning with the new Civic platform, Honda turns the docile economy car into a giant killer all while maintaining everyday usability. Combined with track-tuned suspension settings, quick ratio steering, and sticky tires the Civic Type-R provides mountains of grip. The engine is the amazing K20A which cranks out over 100bhp per liter and is more than happy turning 8,000 RPM all day long.
1967 Lamborghini Miura P400
Few cars are so revolutionary in their design and performance that they define a new genre. When introduced in 1966 the Lamborghini Miura left people worldwide in awe of its design and performance—the first Supercar was born. The groundbreaking combination of exotic styling and racecar performance evokes a passion which is second to none in the automotive world. Appreciation for the Miura has only grown since its inception, so much so that no classic Italian car collection is complete without one.
Tear up the streets in your Lamborghini.
2006 Lamborghini Miura Concept
To commemorate the fortieth Anniversary of the Miura, new Lamborghini chief designer Walter de'Silva debuted the Miura Concept at the 2006 Detroit Auto Show. The stunning design incorporates production feasibility, advanced aerodynamics and incredible structural strength all while remaining faithful to the original design. You can be certain that few cars will produce a more pleasing combination of design, sound and all-out performance.
2007 Porsche 911 GT3 RS
Few Porsches have had the privilege of carrying the RS or Rennsport badge, but the few that have are certainly automotive icons. The 2007 911 GT3 RS is the newest rendition and is based on the wildly popular 997 chassis. With 415 horsepower, an 8,400 RPM redline, and a performance-tuned exhaust the GT3 RS provides a driving experience (street or circuit) that is truly extraordinary.
2007 Saturn Sky Red Line
After the successful introduction of the Saturn Sky, GM executives decided to raise the performance bar with Saturn Sky Red Line, and raise the bar they did. Under the hood is the world-class 2.0 liter turbocharged LNF Ecotec engine, mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. Perhaps most impressive is that the Sky and Sky Red Line are already dominating autocross and gymkhana classes worldwide. Miata owners you have been warned.
2007 Seat Leon Supercup
With recent championships in both WTCC and BTCC Seat quickly established itself as a major player in the highly competitive touring car championships. Featuring a 300 horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder engine, six-speed paddle shift gearbox, massive AP Racing brakes and a Seat Sport differential, the new Leon SCC offers exceptional performance.
