Aston Martin Rapide and audi A7 this 2012th garnet red pearl paint to make it even more beautiful.
The car seems a lot of traffic, especially the Audi driver. A bit 'faster to catch me, to see the rest of the deviation from its path.
The 2012 Audi A7 is a lot of car for $ 66,000. Our long-term Audi S4 sticker to $ 58,000 with everything. This car is worth $ 8,000 more. You have more space, a cavernous trunk and almost as much power.
Audi interiors are generally high, and this is no exception. The seats are firm but gentle in a way, the multi-user-friendly control and the grain of the wood has a dark matte finish. Everything else is made of steel and black leather.
The billiard table smooth A7 cruises in comfort mode, the library remains silent. Switch to dynamic and throw in a sport or manual-shift mode, and the A7 is a car enthusiast with space for four adults and their golf clubs.
I had the car a lot because it rained all night throwing, but I never felt nervous on the highway, even on wet roads looking glass. The number of bits that I found standing water do not mess up the car at all.
The brakes and steering were both a good deal of feeling for her. At first I thought the collar was a little 'softer, but the pedal and stopping distances are small. The steering is fairly light weight and tighten when parking but once at speed.
Audi has a fall ZF eight reports on the A7 and it works beautifully. Ninety percent of the time is completely invisible, but it happens to the paddles or the shifter, is extremely responsive.
Since the power consumption of 28 mpg highway, and I think we could get. With nothing less than a stomp on the pedal that moves out of the Audi A7, the first and second, when you reach 25 mph. If it is on the way there already comfortable on the road trip in eight. It also seems very slippery, I'm sure that air resistance is small.
It 's a great car. It is not too bright luxury, and is quiet and fast when you need it. I already said it looks like a spaceship?

Another child immaculate dream of Pininfarina, the F430 Spider is an elegant top of the line at the beginning of class, the registration of one of the best cars rated as Class V-8 sports cars.
It's simple, yet muscular body is more than tease the eye, it has been designed using advanced knock your socks, programs of computer imaging, which are used exclusively by Team GB -1. Not a single detail of the handling performance or trend rate has been neglected, and the results are well above the others.
From that subtle adjustments in refining what was already lost a sophisticated, subtle as the F430 has a personality of its own. Your new look shining stainless steel exhaust in the tournament as its 483 horsepower and 343 lb-ft of torque to leave the competition to look behind the hand.
What increase in less than 20% of the original 3.6 liters of Modena with the largest displacement V-8 rumble, and the new and improved cylinder 4-valve heads combined amounts to 91 more horsepower and 67 lb-ft of torque. For the mathematically challenged like me, that adds quite a roar 0-60 in just under 4 seconds and a top speed improved for each of 193 mph. Although stage can offer 20%.

The bad: The gearbox six-speed is a little rough around the edges.
Conclusion: In a tough race at times, provides Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 R-Spec on the promise of a car as low cost for use on public roads, while providing the comfort that we believe is most important.
Automotive Trim level packaging is a bit strange to a science. In the case of the Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8, there is the level Grand Touring trim, where all the goodies tech and luxury available includes, and trim level of the track that contains all the performance goodies and luxury. But what if you just want to just go fast? For these drivers, a new R-Spec Hyundai has created level of finish.
In essence, the R-Spec trim level includes all the goodies that go faster through the monitoring of the Genesis Coupe 3.8 'without leaving the comfort and convenience of cutting upgrades. Hyundai voluntarily limit the options of the vehicle, reducing the weight of the cup and keep prices manageable. It has been a while since we have not rolled a car cruise control, even, but during our review, we learned that the idea of a Hyundai car stripped-down track still manages to include many characteristics of our must-have tech.

BMW introduced its first midsize SUV in 1999 with the X5. The X3 compact followed in 2003. But BMW does not call these vehicles SUVs. He called Sport Activity Vehicle. It was a pretty good reputation as the car was much better than most of their competitors.
BMW created the X5 in 2007. It's now the turn of the X3. The famous barbecue double kidney shaped leaves no doubt that this is a BMW. Lateral line and rear design is not too far from the aspect of the X3 first.
But this X3 2011 is not an easy transformation of the original. It's a bit outside, which means more cargo space and, more importantly, more comfort for adults sitting in the back seat. Front occupants get more space for the shoulder. Yes, the X3 sport is now much more family friendly.
The X3 2003 could climb steep, too hard on rough pavement. The 2011 X3 turns firmly but comfortably. There is a marked improvement.
Fortunately, it was BMW line exposure to the tendency to provide a hard drive on a road very bad, without manipulation. The BMW X3 tracks nice, even if the road throws you a curve. The car has an almost perfect balance, good steering feel and great grip. Braking is also very good.
BMW offers two versions of the BMW X3, both with 3.0-liter inline-six, who are exceptionally soft and refined supplied with electricity. Our test car, we were the BMW xDrive28i with 240 hp. Also available is the xDrive35i with a 6-cylinder turbocharged engine good for 300 horsepower. Both engines work with a new xDrive-for-2011 with automatic transmission and BMW eight reports system with four wheels.
Engine performance is as good as the other parts of the vehicle. X3 with a naturally aspirated engine can do 60 miles per hour in 6.8 seconds. Even when activated, the engine is smooth. AIDS transmission in this class with moves excellent performance over time.
Although BMW has improved the interior, I have some problems with the interior of the car. Remove the shift lever, for example. If it's in the park position you have to push it forward to backward and backward to go forward is. Then there's iDrive. Although this new version is much easier to use than the original, it is still heavy and boring. Try to agree to a radio station that is not saved, if you know what I want mine.
Nevertheless, this new BMW is the car a great driver. And here's a bonus in the USA Certificate: Because the car is now manufactured Manufacturing in Spartanburg, South Carolina held in Eurpoe, the price is lower.

Step to recognize, and you'll realize how this vehicle is spacious. Vast greenhouse filled the cabin with light and airy atmosphere for after with great visibility on the outside, the stock is more than adequate, but I do support positions, folding armrest of the driver and steering column, you feel good.
heating and ventilation knobs are easy and close to the driver, not a stereo system with MP3-CD can skip the song and makes it easy to view folders with a large center mounted buttons and volume control. There is a USB connection, but it depends on the wire in the top compartment, you can not put the key in while driving. The control wheel and Bluetooth phone will also be appropriate to have nice things offered by the competition.
The rear seats are first-class facilities for a small car with more leg, shoulder, hip and room than the Nissan Versa Hatchback-cavernosum. Something no one else but Honda has such a versatile seating arrangement, the bank pillow fold and snap the implementation of large objects, such as plants or LCD screen and backrest can be folded to form a completely flat load floor.
Its payload, a backup (585 liters) or complex (1622 liters), has no equal among the small car, and it is even more compact hatchback seem low.

The ES and limited editions have disappeared between 2004 and programming. Now, only the LS and XLS models are available, and the automaker says that the value was added at once. The LS is now the base model and has lost some equipment, but these terms are an option for her group. Both models now use the more powerful 3.5-liter that was installed earlier than the high-end versions. roof rails and New 16-inch alloy wheels are standard.

driving impressions
Is it a truck or not? Because he runs, walks and runs with extraordinary ease the power port seem Montero Sport feel a little room. Otherwise, this SUV everything he said in a competent manner alleged.
Despite its medium size businesses, the interior feels a bit cramped. Entry into the driver's seat is more difficult than expected, you can skip to the head must be clearly indicated on the controls in place are confusing, and free space is not abundant.
The Montero Sport car is quiet with minimal road and wind noise, and he responds eagerly to a slight pressure on the accelerator. The automatic transmission responds well and without any discomfort. A lot of body movement is clear, but it is limited in scope, even in moderately rough pavement.
Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 basically set the gold standard of high quality tires tiresthe to almost all others are compared. Not only does she grace the wheel of the best performing cars in the world that represent a high point of the characteristics of car tires.
So, how could exceed the Michelin PS2, the glass ceiling to break up the company? Though maybe the Michelin engineers monumental feat was more than up to the task, equipped with the latest technology, a global test track and an entourage of support engineers at Porsche, Ferrari and BMW M to name a few.
The result came with Michelin tires worthy enough to add the word to the legacy of the Super Sport Pilot. Upon arrival at the Dubai Autodrome, was the first for the presentation of products, and then a list of events with a simple message: Sit back and enjoy the Michelin Pilot Sport Super. Events for the day was far goeswet tire tests and dry surfaces and braking and acceleration rates of standard demonstrations. 
Everything you need to get a good indicator of how the tires. What was not standard was used, the type of vehicle tires in order to demonstrate skills. Imagine that we had a buffet car premium, as it usually only seen in your wildest dreams. Used as Gumpert Apollo Koenigsegg Ager, Italia Ferrari 458, Mercedes SLS AMG, Porsche 911, BMW M3, Audi R8, Lamborghini Gallardo, the list went on. Time constraints limited the number of vehicles we have remotes, so I have a few of my favoritesthe 911, M3, R8 V10 and Gallardofor few hot laps.
Over and over, no matter how hard I pushed the Michelin Pilot Sport Super (PSS), was smooth, quiet and put every corner, and I was worried the first time in the car on street tires and learn more about my limitations than the tires.

If the coming of winter, which is too long and Porsche stupid enough to give you the last week in his wonderful 2011 porsche 911 Turbo S can be understood if the first thought is "Road Trip!
That I do not want to, anyway, and I'm in it. After all, if the company teases you with the intoxicating lure of world-class sports cars, which brings 530 hp to the road, you need to find a way to enjoy it, you have to use it properly. And what better way than to pack a bag, take your best friend, and head for the hills? Or better yet, in the mountains.
I'm so happy at the foot of the Rocky Mountains, the mighty, where there are plenty of great driving roads almost believe, would be in anticipation of a modern sports car intended for life. You have a long straight road back to the place where you can wind out of the car to ensure its proper functioning is billed as? We got it. Would you like hills, sweeping turns and narrow, winding processes? Check.
This is really a shame the wealth driving: The most difficult is deciding which roads to use! After much discussion we decided to take a trip (well, it's 911!) To Golden, BC, it was ok to drive there in big loops, which we held in Radium Hot Springs. As it turned out, it was almost perfect run for the abundance of such a car.
What a car! My attempts to light blue in Ice Blue Metallic, a beautiful, which was once my favorite color for the 911 instead of silver going to the Turbo I drove last summer ended. Black leather interior with full Titania do, and it was cozy and stylish.
Under the hood back in the rear-engine Porsche's legendary icon filled 3.8-liter six-cylinder engine has a flat, expect all the modern things could be (such as gasoline direct injection and VarioCam Plus variable valve timing and lift), sweetened by the fiscal variable geometry turbocharger twin.
530 hp and 516 Nm of torque is completely ridiculous, but get used to it quickly and present in about five minutes, not used to it. Power comes on smoothly at first, and then the turbo kick with a hiss and you're pressed against the seat than solid rockets fell, the flattening of the smile on his face to the back of your throat.
You can not use it everywhere, of course, but where, it is very funny.
Our route took us west of Calgary, Alberta, Canada along the Trans Highway, smooth four-wide (minimum) strip of asphalt with a maximum speed of 110 km / h (68 km / h). This range covers almost the Turbo S at all, and we sailed along at minimum speed - with a lot of movement to accompany us - in the mountains rose before us, what happened to the asphalt-related moments of happiness.
Ferrari Berlinetta Boxer, replace the legendary Daytona debut in 1971, was a revolutionary step. This was the first car with an engine halfway Ferrari, followed on the heels of the Lamborghini Miura, one of the first mid-engine sports car, hot on the market. Unfortunately, it was never approved by the North American market, but every rule has its exceptions. And this is one of them.
After replacing the 4.4-liter-12 in the first GT4/BB 365, 5.0-liter 512 BB Ferrari won again in endurance sports car racing game with 512 BB / LM. With only 25 examples, the race saw only 19 shares - 14 of them at Le Mans - including this particular example.
