Street Style’s Inside Scoop!
2011 Mercedes-Benz AMG CLS With the normal Mercedes CLS now accidentally revealed, the only two CLS versions that are interesting are the Shooting Brake and AMG versions. And since there still has been no sighting of the Shooting Brake, we have to be satisfied with the latest AMG photos.
2011 Audi S1 What looks like an Audi A1 with the S-line package, is actually the first Audi S1 prototype. Only minor things give it away, like the larger exhaust system. Another detail is hard to show in photos— namely the sound of that 180 horsepower engine connected to a DSG gearbox. This will be the first S model from Audi that will not come with Quattro, as all S1s are front wheel drive. With this little toy, Audi is in line to join the pocket rocket league.
2012 Range Rover Evoque The five-door version of the upcoming Range Rover Evoque made its first appearance on the Nurburgring this month.
2010 BMW M6 The new BMW M6 has made another appearance at the Nurburgring. This time, it had the M front bumper mounted.

he industry got back to business during the recent run of trade shows here, as buyers braved sweltering temperatures traveling between multiple events and multiple venues. At the center of it all was the MAGIC Marketplace, which tweaked its splitvenue format this season to add its Indie Pool Tradeshow to the lineup of men’s resources—and a few upscale contemporary women’s collections—at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center. This season, Mandalay Bay hosted MAGIC’s contemporary and

premium-denim show, Project, as well as the trade show giant’s Menswear, S.L.A.T.E., Street, Premium and Workroom shows. Over at the Las Vegas Convention Center, WWDMAGIC featured women’s resources, alongside footwear brands showing at MAGIC’s FN Platform, now in its second season, and Sourcing at MAGIC. The event featured more than 700 exhibitors, including domestic and international apparel factories, textile mills, original-print providers, and other supply-chain resources.
“The minute we opened we were busy.” said Greg Fiene, president of Clothing for Modern Times, the Canadian fast-fashion maker with its U.S. design headquarters in Los Angeles. For the August shows, the company divided its booth to showcase its two core brands, Urban Behavior and Costa Blanca. Fiene said on opening day, buyers from Macy’s, Ross Stores and Bebe were among the visitors to the booth. “Everybody’s been here today,” he said.

Contingent of Players Welcomed by President Shimon Peres By Haaretz Service
P
resident Shimon Peres welcomed a delegation of former and current NBA players to Israel recently. The American Israel Public Affairs Committee planned the trip to strengthen American-Israeli relations by introducing leading figures in American sports to Israel and its unique challenges. The delegation included Jerome Williams, David Wood, Allan Houston and Dwight Howard Sr., as well as Memphis Grizzlies general manager Chris Wallace. Accompanying the group was Sacramento Kings player and

Israeli national team member Omri Casspi. In his opening remarks at the meeting with Mr. Peres, former NBA player Allan Houston stated the delegation’s support of Israel. Houston also declared he would stand by Israel as negotiations with Palestine were relaunched in Washington. At the conclusion of the meeting, the players signed a basketball and gave it to the 87-year-old president, who in turn crisply passed the ball to one of his advisers like a seasoned player.

Best known for her role on Baywatch, Anderson has also graced the television series’ Home Improvement, and V.I.P. Chosen as Playboy magazine’s Playmate of the Month in February 1990, here’s Anderson getting into her white Jaguar XK. Sitting on 20 inch chrome wheels, her car looks pretty good, but in our opinion this kitty could use a sexier set of shoes. The AS2 suggestion to the bounteous Ms. Anderson would be to add a white/ chrome combination to bring the Jaguar the red carpet eye catcher look this Hollywood Diva deserves.

COVER STORY
Written by Lyndon Conrad Bell
F
ord’s Mustang owns the distinction of being the only continuously produced American muscle car. Originally introduced in 1964, there have been many high performance variations of the Mustang over its lifetime. One of the best known is the Boss 302. Named for its engine, the Boss 302 was created to give Mustang an edge over Camaro in the then red-hot Trans Am racing series. That car enjoyed 290 horsepower from 4.9 liters, ran 14.6 quarters, and went 0 to 60 in 6.9 seconds.
14
This coming spring, what’s old will be new again when Ford brings back the Boss 302. This time, the Boss Mustang will cradle a 440-horsepower 5.0-liter V8, ferociously funneling an estimated 380 ftlbs of torque through a six-speed manual transmission. For us to say exactly how ferociously will have to wait until the 302 is released to us for testing. However, the 2011 Mustang GT 5.0, which makes 412 horsepower and 390 ft-lbs runs to 60 in the mid four-second range. Keeping the 302 firmly grounded in its roadracing heritage, Mustang engineers went to great pains to improve the handling of the Boss to go along with its more
powerful engine. Higherrate coil springs; stiffer bushings, and a larger diameter rear stabilizer bar improve the agility factor. To give the car a more aggressive appearance, the body is lowered 11 millimeters in front but only one millimeter in the rear. This also just happens to recall the stance of the original car. To enable drivers to tailor the car to their preferred driving style, Boss 302 Mustangs get adjustable shocks and struts. One thing though, the shocks aren’t adjustable from the cabin. Instead, they employ a race-style underhood adjustment built into the shock tower.

To adjust the suspension, all you’ll need is a flat head screwdriver Additionally, the traction and stability control programs have a new intermediate sport mode to allow for more flexibility on the track. For ground contact, the 302 poses on a set of unique 19-inch blackalloy racing wheels, nine inches wide up front and 9.5 inches on the rear. Pirelli P-Zero tires get grip duty. According to Ford, the Boss 302 is capable of more than 1.0 g of lateral acceleration. In other words, this pony will cut!

NEWSWORTHY: ELECTRIC CARS
T
he Chevrolet Volt has won a presidential endorsement and the support of leading environmental activists. Now it needs to garner consumers’ embrace when it comes to market later this year. General Motors’ new extended-range Volt is just one of many advanced electric vehicles that will charge into showrooms over the next several
16
years. Proponents believe the nascent switch to electric propulsion will be a critical step in reducing the nation’s dependence on foreign oil and toward the goal of reducing global warming. But skeptics question the viability of vehicles like Volt, citing their high cost and limited range as factors that could minimize demand, especially at a time when gasoline prices
are relatively affordable. Analyst Joe Phillippi of AutoTrends Consulting said he was surprised by GM’s decision to price the Volt at $41,000, even higher than the $40,000 figure that had been floating among industrywatchers and at least 50 percent higher than a comparable well-equipped compact sedan using a conventional gasoline engine, like the new 2011

Chevrolet Cruze. Other observers were less kind. Conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh used the news to launch a tirade against GM, which he often refers to as “Government Motors,” suggesting the Volt will be a major failure. Commentators in mainstream media outlets including the New York Times also questioned Volt’s viability.
There’s no question the price tag is high, especially when compared with the other major battery car launch scheduled for late this year. The Nissan Leaf will come in just under $33,000. Like Volt, it will also be eligible for a $7,500 federal tax credit, which will bring the Nissan offering down to around $25,000, while Volt will have a transaction price of around $33,000 after the credit. www.automotivestreetstyle.com www.automotivestreetstyle.com
Both makers expect to lease a significant number of their new battery cars, perhaps the majority of them. In that case, Nissan’s advantage largely evaporates, since both models will carry a lease price of $350 a month. That is perhaps a level that green-minded motorists could accept, suggested Phillippi.

JYD PROJECT: TRIP TO ISREAL

hile touring Israel, the former NBA players took a break from their busy schedule to conduct a “Basketball Boot Camp” clinic for 200 basketball players in Jerusalem from ages 9-15. Jerome “Junkyard Dog “ Williams, Allan Houston, Anthony “A.B.” Bonner, David Wood, Paul Grant, and Choo Smith, a former Harlem Globetrotter conducted the clinic. The pros put the young players through a series of defensive drills and demonstrated offensive fundamentals. “JYD” energized the players from the start with group cheers and lots of pushups. Former New York Knick, Allan”H20” Houston, demonstrated the shooting fundamentals that made him one of the league’s all-time great scorers.
20
The young players then split into groups to hone their newly learned skills, including the pick and roll. “A.B” didn’t let the kids rest for a minute, enthusiastically emphasizing defensive strategy and good foot movement. Junkyard Dog made sure energy levels stayed high during the clinic, as he did throughout his entire NBA career. Houston said, “JYD’s Boot Camp style was very exciting to be part of. The kids loved it”. After “Boot Camp”, the players and kids connected for some one on one time that included autographs, handshakes and plenty of smiles all around. The players were in Israel for several days, touring and studying history from ancient to modern times. They visited Jewish,
Christian, and Muslim sites under the auspices of SportsPower International, an organization founded by former Boston Celtic chaplain Bill Alexson.. SportsPower International is dedicated to using basketball worldwide to bring young people together to build character and instill positive values into their lives. Chris Wallace, general manager of the Memphis Grizzlies—a frequent visitor to Israel—is also an integral part of the group. While in Israel, the group played basketball with an inspired group of young immigrants from Ethiopia, conducted a clinic for 600 young people in Tel Aviv, and played an exhibition game against an Israeli professional team, B’nei Hasharon.

This is flat-out, the baddest ‘Street Rat” available that will run happily on pump gas. The ZZ572/620 features 572 cubic inches of pure big-block dynamite and ships to your door as the coolest array of orange paint, chrome detailing and aluminum construction you’ve ever seen. Several custom-designed components make the ZZ572/620 king of the street. Chief among them
24
is the strong, four-bolt block created with a 4.560” bore to achieve the 572 cubic-inch displacement. The 572 is fortified with a forged crank, forged rods and forged pistons. Everything about it is designed to offer you the ultimate bigblock experience. To feed all of those hungry cubes, the 572 is topped off with a single-plane intake manifold—port-matched to the rectangular-port aluminum heads. A custom hydraulic roller camshaft uses .632” lift perimeters to lead the charge. GM makes no apologies when the
loping, aggressive idle of this camshaft attracts rapt attention from the sidewalk. The Deluxe ZZ572/620 comes complete from oil pan (with windage tray) to carburetor, including an 850-cfm Demon fourbarrel, HEI distributor, red sparkplug wires, an aluminum short-style water pump, and the automatic transmission flexplate. The ideal combination of big-block parts designed and validated to GMPP standards, the 572 has been vigorusly tested in real world applications.
