2007-05-11 00:43:00

With 2 simple steps, it takes care of all the hassle for you.Now why would you like to keep a track of your gas mileage you say? Well, there are several benefits to knowing your vehicle’s mileage over time. An obvious suggestion would be that you could improve your driving habits and save gas and money at the pump. Aggressive driving alone can lower your gas mileage by anywhere between 5 and 33%. Seeing improvement in your mileage might give you the inspiration to keep driving conservatively and saving dollars.Another less obvious reason is your car’s health.

Get Paid To Drive Your Car
2007-05-09 04:33:00
There are lots of websites on the internet that offer all kinds of get "paid to" programs and one of them is to get paid to drive your car.Is this for real?Most of the websites on the internet that offer the get paid to drive your car offer are scams, although there are some websites that are legit, most of them are phony. To actually get paid to drive your car you will need to know someone locally or actually talk to the person. I am not saying that it will be impossible to do it over the internet, but you are risking more, since these programs ask for personal information, I rather do it in person.What is it?It is quite simple, advertiser use cars to put vinyls on them for more unique advertising. The vinyls do not damage the paint of the car and can easily be removed, so that leaves no commitment, unless you sign a contract. Some of the advertiser even give you their own car, and you don't even have to have a car, but that depends on the advertiser. Some of them don't pay mone...

Spy Shots: Subaru Impreza
2007-05-08 03:43:00
This is what the new Subaru Impreza looks like, and if you ask me it is not better then the old one. This one looks like a Volkswagen Golf or a Ford Focus, but the old Subaru had a more unique look to it which made it more likable.

Neons On Your Ride
2007-04-28 06:34:00
Most car owners today add neon lights to the side skirts of their and the front and back bumpers of their cars. This practice is greatly influenced by the movie " The Fast and The Furious" and all its sequels as well as from the game "Need For Speed:Underground" and all its sequels. The addiction of neon lights is a very cheap and effective way to pimp out the looks of your car. There are some cheap alternatives to neon lights, such as LED lights, but the effect that you get is not as good. You know what they say, you get what you paid for. Good and cheap neon lights can be easily found on eBay, and when you think about it anything that has to do with anything can be found on eBay. In a previous post I wrote about Lamborghini Styled Doors, and there I gave a link to an eBay seller that sells cheap door hinges so that you can convert your ride to a Lamborghini Styled one. So this is one more cheap way ti enhance the looks of your car and you can find it on eBay!

2008 Mercedes GLK-Class Spy Shots
2007-04-26 07:29:00
These shots were taken by Hans G. Lehmann and are of the all new GLK-class of Mercedes . The new SUV by the German giant is meant to compete with the BWM X3 and Audi's upcoming Q5. This is the reason why the new Mercedes GLK will be smaller the the usual SUVs made by Mercedes and it will hopefully be more affordable.

Peugeot 308 Spy Shots
2007-04-26 07:18:00
These are the three spy shots that are the first official images of the Peugeot 308, which is set to make its debut on the Frankfurt Motor Show in September. The pictures are taken by Automedia. The Peugeot here is hidden with the green covers, because the guys from the company don't want the public to know that its the new car. These pictures were taken while the company was at Africa trying to shoot a commercial.Source: [autoexpress]

Volvo coming out with new SUV 2009
2007-04-24 03:27:00
The new SUV that Volvo is supposed to launch for mass production in 2009 will be called the XC60 . The new SUV is supposed to be a rival to Land Rover's Freelander. This new car is not officially announced, but the UK magazine publisher autoexpress has "spy" pictures of it. They say and I quote " At first glance, the car in our spy pictures looks like an ordinary XC70. But look closely, and you'll notice it's a test mule wearing a raised and shortened version of the estate's body." This is a bald move by Volvo as they are not as experienced as Land Rover in making SUVs but I think, based on the cars that they make, that the SUV should be nice, however I don't think it will be able to match up to the Freelander, but thats just me. The Volvo SUV XC60 will be have a all-wheel-drive system focused for on-road driving because of the fact that Volvo is trying to make more sales. This feature will hopefully make people prefer the XC60 over a regular car. The SUV will be borr...
Audi R8 - Audi's Sports Car
2007-04-18 23:19:00
This brand new car from Audi o totally changes the way people see Audi, and totally change Audi's image. This new car goes against everything that Audi has ever made, and this was exactly what they were going for. Audi is currently trying to increase its sails in the U. S. because the car doesn't have a good image here. Audi engineers hope that the new sporty look of the car will help Audi's marked in America.The Audi R8 isn't just innovative on the outside, but on the inside as well. The dashboard includes all the gadgets that you would expect from the S class of Mercedes, or the new Lamborghinis, but now Audi has it too. All these new innovations would probably explain the mind blowing price tag of $112,000 which very few people can afford.I would say that this car is worth every dollar that they ask for because, first of all it is a German car and everybody knows what that means, and second of all it has a 420 hp , V-8 engine that will blow your mind, making The R8 a real spor...

Civic 'Cossie' - Better then the Type-R
2007-04-18 22:52:00
When the Honda Civic Type -R came out it was the hottest and sportiest Honda out there. Now the news for the competition got even worst. The engineers from Japan have came up with a new Honda to compete with the Ford Escort Cosworth. As you can see from the picture above, as far as looks go, the Honda Type-R-R or also known as 'Cossie' , has beat the Ford by a lot!When the new Honda Type-R-R was being created the engineers took the basic Type-R and made some serious modifications to it so that it can not only look more sporty, but actually perform like some of the top sports cars. To achieve that Honda reduced the weight of the car to a minimum. They did that by removing anything from the car that is not absolutely necessary, and there were quite a few things that were removed. The major thing that has been removed from the original Type-R to form the new Type-R-R is the car stereo, and also the sound deadening. To some people these things are very important, but I personally wou...

Ford recalls 527,000 Escape SUVs
2007-04-16 23:39:00
Ford is recalling 527,000 Escape sport-utility vehicles because of a problem in the antilock braking system that could cause fires, the company said Tuesday.Missing or incorrectly installed wiring harness seals on the Escape's antilock brake connector could allow water and other contaminates such as brake fluid or road salt to enter the ABS connector causing corrosion.The corrosion, in turn, could "lead to an illuminated ABS warning indicator, an open fuse, and in some rare instances smoking, melting or burning of the electrical ABS connector," the company said in a statement.The recall affects 444,880 Escapes from the 2001-2004 model years in the U.S., as well as 82,000 Escapes in Canada, Mexico and Europe, Ford said.The hybrid version of the Escape is not included in the recall, although the Mazda Tribute, which is essentially a twin of the Ford Escape, is being included, according to spokesperson Kristen Kinley.Ford said there had been about no reported accidents or injuries.

New York Auto Show - Impreza saloon booted out in UK!
2007-04-16 23:28:00
Neither the four-door version of the new car nor the sporty WRX variant will make it to British showrooms.We revealed details of the all-new line-up last week (Top Story, Issue 955), and the family car was displayed at the New York Motor Show in both hatchback and saloon guises. However, the booted model won't come to the UK as the brand seeks to rival the Honda Civic and VW Golf, which both sell in greater numbers with five doors rather than four.A spokesman said: "We've sold more saloons in the UK as our rally car has always been a four-door, but the next WRC Impreza will be a hatch."While normally aspirated 1.5 and 2.0-litre five-doors arrive towards the end of the year, performance fans will have to wait until 2008 for the hot STi model. This will deliver 300bhp from its turbocharged 2.5-litre boxer engine.That means the 225bhp WRX available in the US will be axed here. "We're trying to sell more normally aspirated cars and lower the range's average CO2 output," added the s...

The Best Cars of 2006 - Chrysler 300
2007-04-12 01:06:00
This is a big, beefy sedan that's American and proud of it. Sounds simple, but that cupboard was bare for years before Chrysler released its award-winning 300.Some say that the 300's success is only about its signature grille and muscle-man styling, but it's equally about the muscle under the hood, in the form of the optional 340-horsepower Hemi V-8. Some of the car's excellence can be traced to corporate sibling Mercedes-Benz, which had a hand in the transmission and suspension.Flaws are few, including mediocre plastics inside and a center control panel with too many dinky buttons. The Hemi shuts down half its cylinders during cruising to boost mileage, though fuel- and price-conscious buyers should check out the 3.5-liter V-6 version.Source: [cnn]____________________________________ _________________________________________ ___If you like this post, please subscribe to the RSS feedsAndVisit Our Friend's Site

The Best Cars of 2006 - Audi A6
2007-04-12 00:41:00
Judging a luxury car comes down to how well it can juggle. Can it excel in design, performance, features, quality -- all while leaving you thoroughly entertained?Among $40,000 to $65,000 sedans, the Audi A6 deserves top billing. The four-wheel-drive four-door topped our recent test of five mid-size luxury cars (January 2006) by perfectly balancing beauty and brawn, comfort and sportiness.The body is modern but not too flashy; the sleek and comfy cabin again asserts Audi's leading position in interior design; the switches and knobs don't feel at all plasticky or flimsy. The 335-hp, 4.2-liter V-8 model is certainly potent, but it's the 255-hp, 3.2-liter V-6 that offers the most muscle for the dollar: That engine has a healthy amount of power but also delivers fuel economy of 21 mpg in city driving and 29 mpg on the highway.Source: [cnn]____________________________________ _________________________________________ ___If you like this post, please subscribe to the RSS feedsAndVisit Our...

The Best Cars of 2006 - Honda Accord
2007-04-12 00:37:00
Despite strong new competition from Toyota and Ford, Honda still sits at the head of the family-sedan table. The Accord is as roomy, comfortable and safe as its main rivals yet still feels more sporty and refined whenever the road throws you a curve.Four-cylinder, 166-hp models are so smooth, affordable and economical that there's little reason to opt for the 244-hp V-6. The 2006 model gets a mild makeover for the exterior and interior, including new rear-end styling, as well as a new steering wheel, driver's gauges and seat fabrics.All Accords feature side- and side-curtain air bags, six-cylinder models add standard electronic stability control, and the EX V-6 now offers a six-speed manual transmission.Source: [cnn]____________________________________ _________________________________________ ___If you like this post, please subscribe to the RSS feedsAndVisit Our Friend's Site

The Best Cars of 2006 - BMW 3 Series
2007-04-12 00:34:00
After serious challenges from Infiniti and Lexus, BMW released a new 3 Series last year, and its subtle gains in power, braking and handling have vaulted the four-door to the top of the pack once again.The new 3.0-liter inline-six engine now produces 255 horsepower for the 330i. The small four-door remains one of the best handling cars on the road, period.The interior isn't groundbreaking, but at least BMW's oft-lambasted iDrive controller (a big console-mounted knob that operates almost everything in the car -- and does so in a confusing fashion) is an option here, one you can happily skip.Source: [cnn]____________________________________ _________________________________________ ___If you like this post, please subscribe to the RSS feedsAndVisit Our Friend's Site

The Best Cars of 2006
2007-04-04 01:43:00
In the next couple of days I will be covering the best cars of 2006, based CNN.Today's car is Mazda 3. Here is what Money Magazine said about it:Any shortlist of compact cars is sure to include the Toyota Corolla and the all-new 2006 Honda Civic, but the Mazda 3 is simply a cut above. It's practical and easy on gas, but also stylish and fun to drive.Sedan shoppers can choose the 3i model's 150-hp, 2.0-liter 4 or the 3s model's 2.3-liter 4 with 160 hp. The handsome five-door hatch gets the 2.3-liter only; that engine is paired with a new five-speed automatic and anti-lock brakes, both of which are standard.Options include a navigation system and satellite radio. Go easy on extras and a well-equipped 3 can be had for $16,000 to $17,000.Expect more soon.____________________________________ _________________________________________ ___If you like this post, please subscribe to the RSS feedsAndVisit Our Friend's Site

Review - Honda Fit
2007-03-28 23:05:00
The Honda Fit is the all new "car" from Honda. I say "car" because this is not a mid sized car and its not a mini van either, its both. The Honda Fit is called Fit for a reason. Although it might not look like it it is very roomy. This car has more room on the inside then most SUVs have, but it looks more stylish and it is more gas efficient.What makes the Fit so roomy is what is know as 2nd-row Magic Seat. What this does is it fold the second row of seats and creates so much room that it makes the room of the SUVs look small. This car is now being introduced because people need smaller cars with more room, and with today's soaring gas prices the Honda Fit is the perfect solution. The Honda Fit 5-speed automatic averages 31 miles/gallon in the city and 38 miles/gallon on the highway, and this is the reason why some people buy this car.Another reason why people buy it is because the Honda Fit Sport. The Sport model is basically the same except it comes with 15 inch alloy rims and so...

Attempt at a New Diesel Land speed Record
2007-03-28 00:07:00
British construction equipment manufacturer JCB aims to set a new diesel land speed record with this Bonneville streamliner powered by two backhoe engines. Really. The JCB Diesel max H1 is motivated by a pair of JCB444 diesels normally used with the company's backhoe models.The firm announced Thursday that the streamliner is scheduled for an August attempt to break the 33-year-old diesel speed record of 235.756 mph, set by Virgil Snyder in the Thermo King Streamliner. The Dieselmax will be driven by Britain's own Andy Green, holder of the unlimited land speed record.The two LSR four-cylinder diesels use a standard production engine block, cylinder head and bedplate, upgraded with direct injection, two-stage turbocharging and a host of other mods to boost power output to 750 hp. Redlined at 3800 rpm, each engine produces nearly 1,100 ft-lb of torque. The engines will run with about 75 psi (!) of boost at full power. At 150 hp/liter, JCB claims the Dieselmax engines are the world's ...

Chevy Impala SS - Every Rapper's Dream

This is the car that every rapper dreams about at night. This particular one is a 1964 Impala SS. These cars, although they might not seem like powerful cars, have a 200 horsepower engine. If you watch rap videos you probably have seen one of those in between the dozens of girls with their boobs half way out of their bra's. This car, hooked up with hydraulics and some 8 inch wheels will make some rapper very happy, or some white spoiled suburban kid who knows?___________________________________ _________________________________________ ____If you like this post, please subscribe to the RSS feedsAndVisit Our Friend's Site

Lamborghini Murcielago Crash!

Lamborghini makes some of the best cars on the face of the Earth. These cars look sexy, drive fast and crash bad. Some people just can't handle the temptation of the car and decide to speed. Speeding in urban areas is always bad as the video below will demonstrate.I personally don't feel bad for the guy because he is dumb for speeding in the first place. Also I think that if he had enough money to buy a Lambo he will gave enough to buy a new one, or at least repair this one. Anyway, lets get to the fun part, the crash...I think that this guy doesn't deserve to have a driver's license!_________________________________ _________________________________________ ______If you like this post, please subscribe to the RSS feedsAndVisit Our Friend's Site

Pimp My Ride- Lamborghini Style Doors

We all know how cool lambo doors look on cars like this Eclipse here, but most people, like me until a couple of days ago, think that it is something that only the super rich can get, well guess what? It's not! Recently I was looking trough the web and I found a website that sells lambo doors, it's called WingDoors . The prices I saw on the website were just outrageous. They charge well over $ 1000 for two door hinges with 2 or sometimes 4 shock absorbers. I thought that the idea of having lambo doors is really cool and I decided to look for a cheaper alternative and I found it. I thought about it for a second, if you want to buy something cheap that you usually pay a lot for what do you do, and then it hit me eBay! So go here and see for yourself how much cheaper the door hinges are. Look here and see how much cheaper I found them on eBay. So if you have an extra $ 300 and want your car to become a real show stopper, buy lambo doors if not pay for gas with them. I am out, and if ...

The 2007 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500
2007-03-11 02:51:00
The Ford Must ang has never been seen as a race car. In a world with competitors like Lamborghini, Ferrari, BWM and almighty Mercedes-Benz the Ford Mustang seems like a kids toy. In most cases people will be right to assume that the Mustang is not a very good sports car, but when it comes to the Mustang Shelby Cobra, its a totally different story. That is the most powerful Mustang that Ford makes, the engine is a supercharged V-8. It is usually 300 hp (horse power), but when the supercharge kicks in it goes from 300 hp to 500 hp. This car is not only good looking, but it also goes form 0 to 60 in 4.9 seconds. This sounds more like a sports car. The only way to get that kind of performance is to buy the Mustang Shelby Cobra, because the other mustangs just look the same, but preform just like any other crappy Ford. Like a said before what makes the GT500 different is the fact that the V-8 engine in it is Supercharged, giving it that extra boost to send it up there with all the other s...
Mitsubishi Evo Vs. Lamborghini Murcielago
2007-03-10 02:35:00
You would think that this would be easy to guess, but it proves to be more difficult then you would think. Most people are really impressed when the hear the name Lamb orghini , and they should be, but is there a car far more affordable that can actually preform better? The answer is not that simple and it can only be proven by a race. And that is just what I have for you. A race between a Lamborghini Murcielago and a Mitsubishi Evo . The outcome of the race is not what you would expect and, *hint**hint*, it might make you think twice about spending $300,000 + for a Lamborghini when you can get a cheaper car that is actually able to preform better. So enjoy the video and read the conclusion after it. As you can see the Evo has much better grip on the road, and that is no surprise since the Evo is 4 wheel drive. The Lamborghini is faster then the Mitsubishi but when it comes to high speed turns it doesn't do that good since it is rear wheel drive. In general cars that have rear...
