Edmunds GT-R: representative of them all?
2008-09-16 13:02:00 That's the big question this week. Follow the link in the title of this post to the complete set of reports of Edmund's experiences with their GT-R - good and bad (shown). Wholesale replacement of parts to track down a bug that can't otherwise be found is not a good quality statement. Are their problems representative of all GT-Rs, or are they just an isolated incident? The following picture is their GT-R a few days ago with the fuel tank and entire rear suspension/transmission/diff removed for replacement. Be sure to click on the picture in their blog to get a high-res image.
Edmunds: 2009 Nissan GT-R vs. the World
2008-06-07 22:08:00 Edmunds.com has untaken a test of the GT-R versus several other cars, both on the Streets of Willow Springs and on back roads outside of Los Angeles. This is a very valid test, because this is exactly what driving enthusiasts do with their cars - take them to the track on some weekends, and alternately drive them hard and fast on back roads on other weekends. Cars like this would rarely get a rest... that is their fate in life. The comparees are the 2008 Audi R8, 2008 Lotus Elise SC, 2008 Porsche 911, 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X MR and 2008 Subaru WRX STI. Dodge and Chevrolet declined to participate so that their cars wouldn't have to go up against the GT-R. A Racelogic VBOX was used to gather the test results. The overall test, as you might expect, was won by the 2009 Nissan GT-R ($75,925 US) with a track time of 1:25.68. 2nd place in both tests was taken by the Audi R8 ($134,545 US) with a track time of 1:26.92. 3rd place will surprise you : the 2008...

Edmunds Taking The GT-R On The Road
2008-03-25 07:48:00 Here’s the deal. There are only seven U.S.-spec GT-Rs on American soil and we’re taking one on the road. We’ve got a new gas credit card, a white 2009 Nissan GT-R and three days to cover as many miles as we can. Nissan made us agree to just two rules. 1) The Edmunds’ Inside Line office in Santa Monica, California is the starting line. 2) The car makes it to Reno, Nevada in one piece. But here’s the question. Where should we go? Help us plan our route. We can drive the GT-R anywhere we want. Should we hit a racetrack? Route 66? Your house? Help us out here. Where would you take somebody else’s GT-R? Then tune back to this blog space on Wednesday March 26th and tag along for the ride. We’ll be blogging from the road, complete with photos and video. It’ll be like you’re riding along with us in the year’s hottest car. The adventure will last three days. We also promised Nissan the car would be returned to its engineers early th...

2008-01-23 18:47:00 More gossip plumes are poofing up from the sudden crash of Eddie Murphy and Tracey Edmonds' marriage ? which was done "spiritually" in Bora Bora during New Year's weekend but never made legal in the United States as planned. The National Enquirer claims their respective families were at odds, particularly the mothers of the bride and groom. According to the tabloid, Murphy's mom felt Edmonds was a gold digger, while Tracey's mom felt Eddie wasn't good enough for her daughter. As previously reported, there are also rumors that plans for the legal wedding hit a brick wall because Edmonds refused to sign a prenup. A source told the New York Post: "There was no way Eddie would go through with it without knowing that his fortune would be protected if they split up." Various reports also had the families bickering with each other during the wedding weekend on the island.Aren't Eddie and Tracey old enough to make their own decisions. They are Gr...

EDDIE MURPHY AND TRACEY EDMUNDS SPILIT??
2008-01-17 15:24:00 The wedding ceremony between Eddie Murphy and film producer Tracey Edmonds two weeks ago was only symbolic -- and that's as far as they plan to go, they announced Wednesday. Murphy, 46, and Edmonds, 40, traded vows on New Year's Day on a private island off Bora Bora in French Polynesia in a ceremony that was not legally binding."After much consideration and discussion, we have jointly decided that we will forgo having a legal ceremony as it is not necessary to define our relationship further," said a statement on behalf of Murphy and Edmonds issued by publicist Arnold Robinson."While the recent symbolic union in Bora Bora was representative of our deep love, friendship and respect that we have for one another on a spiritual level, we have decided to remain friends," the statement said.The statement did not clarify whether the two remained a couple. In an e-mail exchange, Robinson said he could not comment beyond the statement.Murphy has six children from previous relationships. He...

And we find that there will be a special aggressive RS model after launch. Mitsubishi Motors also supplied some additional images today: 1) the Recaro interior (with leather option); 2) Red MR with bright rims; 3) the chrome grill surround on the MR model.

Dave Edmunds - Born To Be With You (1973)
2007-09-06 08:00:00 Roots-rockers are seldom as purist as Dave Edmunds. Throughout his career, he stayed true to '50s and '60s rock & roll -- for Edmunds, rock & roll history stopped somewhere in 1963, after the Beach Boys' first singles but before the Beatles' hits. After establishing himself as a hotshot lead guitarist in the blues-rockers Love Sculpture, he launched his solo career by painstakingly re-creating oldies in his own studio, usually recording every track by himself. Through all of his efforts, he learned how to uncannily replicate the sound of Sun, Chess, and Phil Spector records, which not only helped him garner several U.K. hits in the early '70s, but also led to successful production work with artists like the Flamin' Groovies and Brinsley Schwarz. In the late '70s, he hit the peak of his career when he teamed up with former Schwarz bassist Nick Lowe to form Rockpile. For several years, Edmunds recorded albums with Rockpile and toured relentlessly with the band, which resulted i...

2009 Challenger mule on edmunds StraightLine
2007-04-14 14:54:00 Finally, the first picture of a Challenger mule. http://blogs.edmunds.com/Straig-htline/2631 This engineering "mule" is a Charger with a Challenger front end. The purpose is to test cooling thru the new grill, packaging of the engine compartment, or possibly even new front suspension components. Mules build on an existing platform save money over building the complete car and allows engineers to finds problems before investing in the complete car - which is very expensive to build. The platform underneath the car is essentially the same as the 300C/Charger/Magnum, although some believe the Challenger will use a gen 2 version of the platform. And I'd like to see some serious weight-saving measures - because the Challenger is a *large* car. Even larger than the tank Mustang and the upcoming Camaro. Hopefully the front leading edge of the Challenger will be the same as the concept car - instead of the rediculous very high leading edge of the Charger. The hug...
