Lancia Stratos
Lancia Stratos, they were supposed to built 500 to conclude with race regulations but there are actually between 430 and 480 pieces built. The first 50 cars didn't have spoilers on the roof and the back of the car, Lancia added it later because the car was unstable at high speeds. The first 50 cars also had an air intake for the "climate control" at the left front wheel.Lancia Stratos
The Stratos really brought the spirit back into lancia for a while, and it still has the world record of most rally titles in the world. It was one of the last rally cars without 4 wheel drive.
Although the Lancia Stratos has a really big boot the car isn't very practical for daily use because it can be very hot in the cockpit and you have absoluteky no rear sight, the brakes are very hard and the electrics are a disgrace. There were many Lancia Stratos which burnt out because of electrical failures.
There were also 2 long wheelbased Stratos' made for the use on the circuit and there were also circuit cars with the ordinary wheelbase but they didn't handle as well.

As a teaser to followers of its upcoming Chevy Volt hybrid coupe, General Motors has released images of the Volt, giving enthusiasts a glimpse at what has the potential to become a highly popular car.
Two Photographs Offer a Sneak Peek
Shown to the public were two photographs - the first one depicting the front left portion of the grill and headlights, the second one the rear end of the car, particularly its distinct Chevrolet bow design and Volt model insignia. Most notable among the changes were:
The headlights wrap around from the front to the side as do the fog lamps. The same grille design made popular with the 2008 Malibu and 2009 Traverse will be used in the 2011 Volt.
The rear panel of the car has been streamlined with the Chevy bow design placed directly above the Volt name; the "V" in Volt receives an electric charge symbol to represent that this is, indeed, an electric car.
Production Progresses
Likely, the first Volts won't be available in dealer showrooms before Fall 2010. GM is still working on perfecting the lithium-ion technology, a battery that is expected to give the car its 40 mile electric range. When not operating, a small gasoline engine will kick in which will extend the Volt's range and help to recharge the battery. However, the car will have to be plugged in regularly in order for the battery to be completely recharge.
The final design version is expected to be completed in September 2008, just as the company marks its centennial anniversary. By November 2008, the production ready model will be on display at the L.A. Auto Show as it kicks off the auto show circuit. Expect that the car will be on display at shows in Detroit in January 2009 followed by Chicago in February and New York in April.
GM has asked the federal government for tax credits to help build the Volt, but that scenario isn't likely to be addressed until after this year's presidential elections. Both political parties have expressed interest in helping GM, but that help could be extended to buyers of the car in the form of a rebate or tax credit.
