  1. I love GM and would love to pick the Solstice. But, I can't. A guy at my school drives a 2009 SLK55 AMG and it sounds like God. I get chills everytime I hear it, and i hear it just about every day. The Solstice has great bang-for-the-buck value, but the Merc is much more refined.

  2. I LOVE the Volkswagen Pheaton. It's absolutely amazing. I am a strong supporter of Cadillac but if i wasn't, the first luxury car I would look to buy is the Pheaton. It is a highly underrated car in my opinion.

  3. American 5 Door Hatchback: Ford Fiesta:

     

    Actually, though Ford originated as an American car company, the Fiesta is not really American at all. All of it's components, from style, to parts, to just about everything are derived from Ford's European design department.

  4. yeah but you buy like a crappy unsafe car just so you can afford the insurance but its still like £1600

     

    On the contrary, alot of small cars are safe. And some are quite awesome as well.

  5. YAY, My Pride and Joy is drivable once again! After a 13 month hiatus. the brakes are working again. My gradnfather picked me up from work yesterday in it and we drove it a while. I smiled the whole way home :D

    Spy Shots: Grand Bentley - Click above for a high-res image gallery

     

    Like every big reveal of the past few years, Bentley has decided to dish out a series of teasers before unveiling its new model to the world. Thankfully, we're only a few weeks away from the Grand Bentley's debut at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, and before the main event takes place, we've got a few spy shots of the flying-B's large-and-in-charge luxo-barge.

     

    Although the Grand Bentley is coated in copious amounts of camo, when we look back at the two teasers Bentley released of the hood and rear-quarter, it doesn't take much imagination to piece things together. There's a few shades of the Mulsanne and Brooklands to the profile, primarily accentuated by the ultra-thick C-pillar, and while the body cladding lends an air of Phantom to the fascia, it's decidedly more sculpted and smooth, and should be a fitting place to stack the duo of round headlamps we've seen in previous spy shots. All will be revealed next month, but in the meantime, check out the gallery of images below.

     

     

     

     

    Looks to me like the new Bentley is going to be a great one :D

  7. I honestly can't believe that someone there thought that you may even have a slightest thought of what responsibility driving is at 14...:rolleyes:

     

    Some people mature faster than others. I knew what a responsibility it was at 14. It all depends on where you live and how your parents raised you and other things as well.

    RUF Rt 12 S - Click above for a high-res image gallery

     

    It's been quite a few years since RUF launched its 911 Turbo-based Rt 12, and the German uber-tuner has decided its time for a refresh. Designated the Rt 12 S, the new model gets a bump in output from 650 to 685 horsepower, good for a new maximum velocity of 224 mph. Along with the distinctive front and rear fascias, the exterior is differentiated with widened rear fenders that house air ducts, a carbon fiber rear spoiler, LED lighting, CTR 3 mirrors, and 19-inch alloy wheels. Additional upgrades include carbon ceramic brakes, a hydraulically-adjustable suspension system, a variety of custom seats, a new steering wheel and more. Customers can also opt to convert the car to RWD and choose from a variety of interior trim options. All of this comes at a cost, though. At the current exchange rate, RUF will take a cool $359,000 out of your bank account. The brief press release gives all the details after the jump, and RUF was kind enough to provide high-res photographs for us to enjoy in the gallery below

     

     

    The "Best all-around Porsche" just got better :D
