Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG, often shortened to Porsche AG, or just Porsche, is a German sports car manufacturer, founded in 1931 by then Austrian Ferdinand Porsche, the engineer who also created the first Volkswagen. The company is located in Zuffenhausen, a city district of Stuttgart, Baden-W?rttemberg. In a May 2006 survey, Porsche was awarded first place as the most prestigious automobile brand by Luxury Institute, New York; it questioned more than 500 households with a gross annual income of at least US $200,000 and a net worth of at least US $720,000. [1] The current Porsche lineup includes sports cars from the Boxster roadster to their most famous product, the 911. The Cayman is a hard top car similar to the Boxster in a slightly higher price range. The Cayenne is Porsche’s mid-size luxury SUV. The Carrera GT supercar was phased out in May 2006. Future plans include a high performance luxury saloon/sedan, the Panamera. Porsche was awarded the 2006 J.D. Power and Associate

is a term used for a high end sports car, typically an exotic or rare one, whose performance is highly superior to that of its contemporaries. The proper application of the term is subjective and disputed, especially among enthusiasts. The use of the term is dependent on the era: a vehicle that is considered to be a supercar at one time may not retain its superiority in the future. The automotive press frequently calls new exotic cars “supercars”. Super car was a children’s TV show produced by Arthur Provis and Gerry and Sylvia Anderson’s AP Films for ATV and ITC Entertainment. 39 episodes were produced between 1961 and 1962, and it was Anderson’s first half-hour series. In the UK it was seen on ITV and in the US in syndication (the first Anderson series to be shown overseas). The format utilizes puppets in a technique called supermarionation, a name that was first seen in the closing titles of the last 13 episodes. Supercar was a vertical takeoff and land

Mercedes C63 AMG Official: 457Hp & 0-100km/h In 4,5 sec
2007-07-04 04:37:03
Someone let the dogs out quite earlier than we expected, but hey, that’s totally ok with us. While we’re waiting for the white collar folks down at Stuttgart to finish off eating their mini-wursts so they can upload the press release let’s see what we have beginning with the heart of any sports car. Under that bulgy hood the 2008 C 63 AMG is hiding the same normally aspirated 6.2-litre V8 engine that’s fitted in the CLK 63 AMG, E63 AMG, CLS 63AMG etc. As anticipated, Mercedes detuned the engine in comparison to other AMG models, lowering output to 457Hp. Still though that’s 37Hp more than the that its two German arch rivals, the 2008 BMW M3 and the Audi RS4, both of which are equipped with 420Hp strong V8’s. - (more…) 2006 C55s, 2007 Audi RS4, 2008 BMW M3, AMG, C63, CLK63, Mercedes, Mercedes Benz, Mercedes C Class, Mercedes C63, speed

Toyota Auris:Toyota Auris 3door Version Launched In Europe
2007-07-03 21:04:29
Toyota is broadening its C-Segment hatch line-up in Europe with the addition of a 3door version of the Auris. Like most of the competition in Europe, Toyota preferred the easy way when it came to designing the Auris 3d meaning it simply threw out the rear doors from the 5door version and presto; a “sporty” 3d hatch As expected, there’s no change in dimensions compared to the Auris 5d. Same goes for the engine range with the 3d being offered with two petrol units (97Hp 1.4-litre & 124Hp 1.6-litre) and two diesels (126Hp 2.0-litre & 177Hp 2.2-litre). Unfortunately Toyota hasn’t issued an official European press release yet so well sit tight with what we found on Toyota’s German site. So in Germany at least, the Auris 3d costs €700 ($954) less than its equivalent 5door version. -More images and the German price list after the jump (more…) 3door, 5door, compact, Europe, Hatchback, Launched , notchback, Pulsar, sedan, toyata auris, toyota, toyota auris, Toyota Cor

Cool Go-Kart Replicating A 1939 Hot Rod
2007-07-03 20:57:46
>It might not look like one, but under those retro bodylines, there’s a Go-Kart hiding and it’s equipped with an 8Hp strong Briggs & Stratton engine. The Go-Kart’s owner says that the outer-shell is inspired from a 1939 Ford/Chevy Hot Rod . I don’t know why but to me it looks more like something that jumped out of a Batman movie. Either way, if you’re a 10-year-old kid this is one ride that will certainly raise your score in the neighbourhood stock-market. -More pictures after the jump (more…) Batman Movie, ebay, Go Kart, Hot Rod, karting, Kurtis Kraft, Replica, Replicating, Southern California, speed, Stratton engine, superkart

Maserati Quattroporte
2007-07-02 11:37:21
If there’s one sedan that you shouldn’t mess around with its appearance, that’s the Maserati Quattroporte and thank God, Novitec limited its actions to the 20-inch multi-spoke rims in 245/35 Pirelli P-Zero rubber up front and 285/30 at the rear axle along with the stainless steel 2×83mm outlets of the exhaust pipe left and right. Shot story about Maserati Quattroporte The Maserati Quattroporte is a luxury four-door sedan made by Maserati of Italy. The name translated from Italian literally means “four doors“. There have been five generations of the car, each separated by a period of roughly five years. In 2004, Maserati started production of the Pininfarina-designed Quattroporte, with the same 4.2 L engine as the Coup?, Spyder and the new GranTurismo but improved to 400 hp (SAE) (298 kW). Due to its greater weight than the Coup? and Spyder, the 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) time for the Quattroporte is 5.2 seconds. The Quattroporte was unveiled to the world at the Frank

Smorsche: Greek turns a humble Fiat 500 into a Porsche 911 Replica
2007-07-02 11:20:19
We found this little gem over at our Italian friends at Autoblog.it this morning. At first, we thought it must be some sort of a photoshop joke reminiscent of the vehicles featured in the “Cars Movie”. As it turns out though, it’s as real as it gets. Along with a bunch of extra images, we also discovered that the….Smorsche is the work of some crazy Greek guy who was probably fed up with the 500’s cutely looks and decided to give it the Porsche treatment! Ok, I just got a crazy idea; how about we give a real-life Porsche 911 Turbo to this innovative fella and let him transform it into a Fiat 500? Now, that would be something to talk about wouldn’t it… Via: Autoblog.it , Source: AMS & ScooterClubHellas 2007, auto+news, Auto news, automobile, automotive, blogs, car+news, Car news, cars, Carscoop, clubrot, Fiat+500, Fiat 500, Porsche+911+Turbo, Porsche 911, Replica , Turbo, vehicles

2007-07-02 10:02:02
Volkswagen ’s drawn out gestation for its 2008 Volkswagen Tiguan compact SUV is approaching its end and this latest rendering shows that the final production version is likely to be almost identical to the concept car displayed at last year’s Los Angeles Auto Show. Aimed as a rival for popular soft-roaders such as the Honda CR-V and Toyota Rav 4, the new Tiguan will feature a foldable rear bench and seating capacity for five. The compact crossover will be equipped with a choice of highly fuel-efficient turbocharged direct injection engines, including 140 and 170 hp Euro V oil-burners and 150, 170 and 200 hp gasoline motors.
