Chevrolet Corvette

One of the most classic American sports cars is the Chevrolet Corvette, which was first introduced in 1953. It was the first completely American sports car built by an American car company, which is why it is often referred to as "America's Sports Car".

Today, Corvettes are manufactured in the city of Bowling Green, Kentucky, where they are created with great care. Though the main complaint with the car was its handling, Corvettes' handling has been continually improved to be on a par with popular European sports cars. However, they still remain relatively affordable, which is perhaps another one of the reasons why they continue to be such popular sports cars.

Corvettes are also created to be far simpler than the technical sports cars seen in Europe, which is one of the reasons they are cheaper. Due to their simplicity, Corvettes tend to be smaller and weigh less than sports cars manufactured abroad. The famous car designer Harley Earl was the person who originally designed the beloved Chevrolet sports car. He noticed that soldiers after the Second World War were bringing back European sports cars and that America didn't really have one. At the 1953 Motorama car show, the Corvette that Earl designed was finally unveiled to the shocked public.

The body of the car was originally made with fiberglass, which was brand new at the time. The performance of the car was similar to other Chevrolets produced at the time, but when Chevrolet released it with the first V8 engine in 1955, it became more powerful and therefore quite popular.

Build a Car Runs With Water

With gas prices on the rise almost every single day now, you must be looking for an alternative. Well now there is one, build a car that runs with water. I did it as an alternative to the high price of fuel and have gotten amazing results.

I know what you are thinking, yet another gadget or money grabbing gimmick. Trust me this is not at all. I know that the name makes people think that you only run you car with water, which actually water is integrated with your fuel in small quantities to achieve the increases in gas mileage of your vehicle - and it will definitely improve your gas mileage.

I know this because I learned how to build a car that runs with water, it improved my mileage by 48%, so thats a $45 in fuel savings each week. It took me about a day and a half to complete the whole process, that time was spent going to my local hardware store and getting all the parts and installing the system. You don't need any real mechanical skills either, cause the plans where so simple to read and follow.

It has been about 8 weeks sense I installed the system and the results where way above expectations. The investment that I put into it paid for it's self after the first 6 weeks. Now I am not as ticked at the price of rising fuel as much as I used to be, which is a big life saver when you travel an hour each way to work each and everyday.

Mercedes Benz AMG

Mercedes AMG offers a high quality car that has a warranty of three years or 60,000 miles. Depending upon the make and model of Mercedes Benz you own you can readily own a car which offers generous gas mileage [particularly as a diesel] and numerous optional features which make those long trips more economical and safer, not to mention more comfortable.

The newest of the Mercedes AMG cars are designed to support GPS systems as well as the new satellite radio.

You can purchase your Mercedes AMG with metallic paint in a wide variety of colors. You may also like being able to choose the type of seat covers which are in your car and even the style of wheels which will come installed. Buying your new Mercedes is a truly personal experience and you alone are in control of what you receive. Though, sometimes you have to order your features in advance as the car that want may not be available in your country yet.

2010 Mazda 3

The 2010 Mazda 3 is no stranger to the automotive press with dozens of spy shots popping up over the past few months and speculative renderings coming from all around the world. Because the Mazda 3 is Mazda's top selling vehicle in the U.S. it's not hard to see why it is drawing in so much excitement surrounding its unveiling at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November. The redesign couldn't come up at a better time for Mazda when, even in the midst of a languishing economy, the Mazda 3 continues to be a hot seller among the ultra competitive compact car segment against the likes of the newly revised Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla. Although nothing is set in stone (read: confirmed by Mazda) yet we have created a list of what to expect when the Mazda 3 is officially unveiled by Mazda: First, the current 2.3 liter motor will be swapped out in favor of Mazda's 2.5 liter currently in the 2009 Mazda6. This will bring power up to around 170 hp, from the current 150-156 hp of the Mazda 3 s-line and will offer both a six speed manual transmission and a five speed sport automatic transmission. The Mazda 3 i-line is expected to carryover its 2.0 liter engine and transmission options.

Ford Mustang Models 2008

The new 2008 Ford Mustang Bullitt is no exception to it. If anything it only improves upon the design and adds new features that will help to make it that much more appealing. The 2008 Bullitt commemorates the classic Steve McQueen film. But Ford never makes their Mustangs in small numbers. There are a few other models that have been added to the 2008 model line-up.

Standing next to the Bullitt is the 2008 GT500KR. This is probably Ford's most powerful Mustang ever to be built. Excited? I know I am! Power is something that we all crave in a car no matter how small or big it might be. And that is what Muscle cars are all about. Without power they would just be another economy car that we drive to work and listen to the radio in. Instead we are proud of each and every powerful Mustang!

We have saved the best model for last. The Shelby GT500 has returned and it brings a supercharged 5.4 liter V8 engine - which pushes out a whopping 500 horsepower! As for the Bullitt it is built with a 4.6 liter V8 engine that can push out 315 horsepower and is only available with the 5 speed manual transmission. The GT500 is also only available in manual transmission. The other base models are available with automatic or manual transmission.

Ford has made the Shelby GT500KR a limited edition coupe - which means if you really want it then you better get your hands on it fast before they are all taken. It is built with a 5.4 liter supercharged V8 engine that has the ability to push out 319 horsepower. When it comes to safety the engineers at Ford have equipped it with front side airbags, ABS, and traction control.

Hybrid Features Of Lexus RX 400h

The Lexus Hybrid 400h hybrid looks nice on the outside and cushy on the inside, but how does this SUV handle? According to Toyota, superbly. As with every other hybrid, the Lexus RX 400h Hybrid has two engines - gasoline and electric - that function together or separately. This is where the fuel-efficiency comes in. The way the motors work in tandem makes some people think that all vehicles should be hybrid. They could be right.

The gas engine is a 3.3 liter V6 like the one found in the RX 350. With a combined 268 horsepower output when used in conjunction with the electric motor, this SUV kicks butt with gasoline conservation. This is a definite plus with gas prices being so high. The electric motor in the front operate optimally under regular driving conditions, and the electric motor in the rear kicks in when the pedal is to the metal in full-throttle acceleration.

The gasoline engine switches off whenever you slow down, is traveling at a low speed or is idling. This is when the electric motor takes over. With a built in Ni-MH battery, there is plenty of energy to run the SUV as well as store electricity that is produced when the vehicle brakes. It's also very helpful when the vehicle speeds up. The Lexus RX 400h Hybrid can reach 60 miles per hour in 8 seconds. Most other SUVs cannot do that and the Lexus is doing it with an electric motor. It is also consuming the same amount of gasoline as a compact four cylinder car. Hence the ability to get a Super Ultra Low Emission Vehicle designation in the United States.
