Porsche Boxster: a Powerful Luxury Sports Car

This mid-engined roadster is one of Porsche’s best-selling cars due to its powerful machine and sporty appearance. Its newest version, the powerful, jaw-dropping and speed-racing 2008 Porsche Boxster has already received great reviews and high ratings on its first year of release. The Porsche Boxster, from its original 986 version in 1996 to the current 987s, is purposely designed to be a road monster. The first Boxster S, with a larger motor and more powerful engine, was launched in 2000. These two versions of the Boxster never ceased to inspire sports car enthusiasts since their release into the market. The original Boxster released in 1996 has a 2.5-liter 6-cylinder engine with a maximum 201 horsepower capability. The engine was later enhanced to as much as 228hp for the standard Boxster in 2003 and 255hp engines for the Boxster S in 2005. Currently, the 2008 Porsche Boxster has a 245hp V6 engine, while the 2008 Boxster S model has a 295hp V6 engine. Porsche hinted that it will release either next year or in 2010 a newer version of the Boxster models with more powerful engines. The most distinguishing features of the latest versions of the Boxster are the enhanced engines that became even more powerful. The S version, for example, can do a performance of 60 miles per hour in less than 6 seconds. That means the car’s engine releases a lot of power. This performance was made possible due to the addition of a Motronic ME 7.8 engine technology that optimizes the Boxsters’ engines. When it comes to appearance, it is evident that the Boxster’s appearance is copied from the Porsche 550 Spyder and the Porsche Spyder and Speedster models, except the convertible top instead of a hardtop roof. Up to the present, this appearance has never been significantly altered. The new models still come out with the signature convertible top design. With its sleek design and powerful, impressive performance, the Porsche Boxster remains to be the car of choice among sports car enthusiasts and also Porsche Boxster leasing is in demand due to the fothcoming recession. The model will not fail in giving a head-turning experience when the owner drives the car down the city roads.

Lamborghini Revent

 

The car that I like better than Italy’s food restaurants or Ferrari cars combined! The Lamborghini Reventón, a mid-engined sports car that debuted at Frankfurt auto show. It is currently the most expensive and powerful Lamborghini car to date, which costs a whooping one million Euro (1,000,000 €).Its a limited edition, reportedly said that only 20 reventón cars exist. Why not cost us an arm and a leg? This car easily boasts features that are simply astonishing.

The four-wheel drive car has a 2-door coupé, 6.5 L (400 cu in) V12 Engine, which receives a power boost of approximately 10bhp, accelerates to 100 km/h (62 mph), and a maximum speed of 340km/h (210 mph). The instrument panel in the Reventón comprises three TFT LCDs with two different display modes. The instruments are housed in a structure milled from a solid aluminum block, protected by a carbon fiber casing.

The innovative edge of this car is its G-force meter. It displays the dynamic drive forces, longitudinal acceleration during acceleration and braking. These forces are represented by the movement of an indicator on a 3D grid depending on the direction and intensity of the acceleration. It has Transmissions of 6-speed e-gear and 6-speed manual transmission. Its exterior is based on its parent company’s design, Audi.

Why do I like this car better than Ferrari simple…? I like its speed, cutting-edge style, performance and above all, it is really the epitome of sleek, substance and style yet there is an intricate touch of simplicity. I dig this car. Lamborghini Reventón is the perfect example of a subtle, deep, and exquisite product of Italian Car engineering. An inspiration exemplified. The limited dream edition, indeed.

2008 Lamborghini Gallardo Looses Weight for Better Aerodynamics

 

The Lamborghini Gallardo is a sports car built by Lamborghini. It was introduced in 2004 as a new entry in Lamborghini lineup of racers. It was intended to rival the Ferrari F430. The name was derived from the Spanish breed of fighting bull named Gallardo. This means gallant in Spanish and striking in from an Italian language.

Most Lamborghini models are sold in a limited number. The Gallardo is the most produced model as of this moment with 5,000 units built in the first three years. It is a cheaper version of the famous and more powerful Lamborghini Murcielago

It’s been made in five variants. The Spyder model of the Gallardo was unveiled at the Los Angeles Auto Show in January 2006. In late 2005, the Gallardo SE (Special Edition) was introduced. The Gallardo Nera (Special Edition) was introduced at Paris Motor Show. Only 185 units of the Gallardo Nera will be produced and 60 are for the American market. A special version of the Gallardo, dubbed the Superleggera was launched at the 2007 Geneva Auto Show. And the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 which was revealed at the 2008 Geneva Auto Show.

As of March 2008, the Gallardo is the only model to use the Lamborghini V10 engine. It uses 520 horsepower, 5.0 liter V-10 engine. The V-10 is linked to a 6 speed manual gearbox, or optional 6-speed automatic, and permanent 4 wheel drive with viscous traction. According to Lamborghini, its acceleration can reach up to 100 kilometers per hour in only 3.95 seconds and it has a top speed of 196 mph.

The Gallardo leaves the impression of being one of the sexiest sports cars on the market. The car certainly looks fantastic with its auto parts and can turn heads almost off their necks. This two-seater car measures 4.34 meters in length, 1.90 meters in width and a mere 1.16 meters in height. It weighs in dry at 1410 kilograms. Its lightweight is due to the extensive use of Superman-hard but lightweight carbon fiber. Most exterior components have been replaced with lighter-weight polycarbonate which then reduces the original with 126 pounds.

Modern car-building techniques have made the car surprisingly comfortable and luxurious. This car carries a warm welcome with its handsome interior furnished in rich leather. The position of the seats is very low but it provides head and leg room enough for a mid-six-footer.

Standard features include automatic climate control, power windows and door locks, power-adjustable leather seating, a CD player with two auxiliary audio inputs, an adjustable leather-wrapped steering wheel, and electrically folding outside mirrors.

Overall, reviewers describe the 2008 Lamborghini Gallardo as a truly a world-class sports car with a very attractive image and a mind-blowing speed.

Sure it is newer than the examples I give below, but it is not a Porsche. So I asked him this question. Why did you choose this Honda? He said, because I saw it advertised at a dealership and that was what I wanted to spend. All well and good I responded. Then I asked him the all important question.

Bmw Tops Apeal Survey

BMW has always had reasons to gloat, it is undoubtedly, one of the leading carmakers when it comes to producing great, and we mean, great, cars.

In fact the latest consumer satisfaction survey has once again revealed that BMW is a winner. And a big one.

The company’s X5 sports activity vehicle — built at BMW Manufacturing Co.’s Greer plant — the BMW 3 series and the BMW 6 series all topped their categories in the J.D. Power and Associates 2007 APEAL survey.

The BMW 5 series and 7 series were runners up in their categories.

The BMW X5 topped the midsize premium multi-activity vehicle segment. That segment includes SUVs and trucks.

A second-generation SUV, the redesigned X5 was launched last November. The first X5 sold successfully through its last days of production and the new X5, says BMW officials, is also now very popular. The plant produced 3,583 X5s during the week of June 18. The X5 will be joined at the plant by the X6 sports activity coupe, on which production will begin next year, and the X3, which is expected to move production to the Greer location around 2010.

“The APEAL study is important because it’s a vote of total confidence in the car,” said Bobby Hitt, public relations manager of BMW Manufacturing. “It is very positive for us, for our customer.”

BMW routinely does well in the APEAL competition, Hitt added. And its especially a pleasure for BMW employees when that vehicle is validated by customers through sales and awards, he said.

Honda led the pack when it came to vehicles topping the list of customer satisfaction, with four cars – the most of any car brand. Honda’s four segment leaders were the Fit (in a tie), CR-V, Ridgeline and Odyssey. Honda was followed by rivals BMW and Mercedes-Benz with three each at the top of their categories.

J.D. Power conducts the Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout Study annually. The company surveys consumers who have purchased a new model-year vehicle after 90 days of ownership to measure satisfaction in 100 different attributes, including ride and handling, engine and transmission and comfort and convenience. This year it surveyed about 92,000 new-car owners.
