Chevy- Runs Deep!

An American car, with lots of speed as well as "good looks"! Tah- dah!!! The "good old" Chevy!!!! Chevy =  lots of speed +"good looks"! 

The faithful Chevy, an American brand of vehicle produced by General Motors (GM). Founded byLouis Chevrolet (race driver and engineer) and ousted GM founder William C. Durant on November 3, 1911. 

Chevrolet first used the "bowtie emblem" logo in 1913. It may have been designed from wallpaper Durant once saw in a French hotel.

The basic Chevrolet small-block V-8 design has remained in continuous production since its debut in 1955, longer than any other mass-produced engine in the world, although current versions share few if any parts interchangeable with the original. Descendants of the basic small-block OHV V-8 design platform in production today have been much modified with advances such as aluminium block and heads, electronic engine management, and sequential port fuel injection.

My Best Ferrari Ever

The Fastest Ferrari Ever:

 Ferrari F12berlinetta is one of my best cars. This is the fastest Ferrari ever built. According to specifications, Ferrari’s 599 GTB-replacement coupé goes 0-60mph in 3.1 seconds and 0-100mph in 8.5 seconds, demolishing what the 599 can post for the same

 

The mid-engined V12 coupé gets 730 horsepower with 690 Nm of torque peaking at 8,700 rpm. A dual-clutch transmission aids the weight-to-power ratio of 2.1 kg/CV; the car weighs 1,525 kg (3,472 lbs)–70 kg less than the previous V12

F12berlinetta uses 30 percent less fuel than the 599, with CO2 emissions of just 350 g/km. Ferrari says the improvement came by refining efficiencies throughout the entire vehicle, especially with the engine, aerodynamics, tires and weight.

Also new on this car a transaxle layout with a shortened wheelbase ans lowered engine, dashboard and seats. The rear of the car is smaller, thanks to changes in the suspension system and gearbox, so the whole thing looks much more compact and drives lower than the 599. Scaglietti designed the aluminium chassis and body 

  
What’s more, Ferrari has updated the carbon-ceramic brakes and a “magnetorheological” suspension control system. Standard in the F12berlinetta are other previously seen driving systems like E-Diff, ESP Premium, F1-Trac and high-performance ABS Inside, Frau leather, carbon fiber and aluminium air vents line the redesigned dash. The car is a two-seater but has extra space behind the seats that will fit medium-sized bags, which can also be reached through the tail gate.

Engine – 6262cc V12

Maximum power output – 740 CV at 8500 rpm

Mummy Cars! The Best Cars for Mums!

Although I'm not a mum myself, but growing up I've definitely noticed the daily  struggles that mums go through trying to get their kids into the car along with their numerous overloading bags of groceries. Hard aye?

But... in today society, believe it or not! There are cars specifically deigned for families or mums to take out their daily struggles while making their life and daily activities easier!

Its hard being a mum as not just any vehicle can handle the rigors of motherhood. Modern moms are a busy lot — dividing their time between work, play and driving the kids to school and a laundry list of extracurricular activities. As a result, mothers-on-the-go require reliable, safe and versatile "mommy-mobiles." As since personal preferences and a family's needs vary, mummy cars range from small and fuel-efficient hatchback wagons to kid-friendly and affordable SUVs.

From research, here are some of the best mummy cars that I've picked from a vast range of family cars! :) haha and also price friendly!

Standing in the 1st place is the new Kia Rando 7!

This is a new style of  URV (Urban Recreational Vehicle) as the new Kia Rondo 7 is the lowest-priced 'cross-over' vehicle in the market. This is an amazing car for mums out there due to its deceptively compact exterior and major people/cargo-carrying capacity. Starting at $24,990 for the LX model, the Rondo offers the best value for money proving generous sitting and storage spaces. As its URV status comes from its flexibility and versatility. while this car is stylish and functional which is  great  for the inner-city along with outdoor trips. For empty nesters or expanding families, it addresses all your changing circumstances.

Standing in the 2nd place is the Honda Fit!

At first glance, the Honda Fit looks too small to be a family car, but if you look closer and you'll see the sheer genius of the Fit's design. Despite its small size, the Fit is amazingly space-efficient, with a cargo bay that stows 20.6 cubic feet -- more than the Audi A4 Avant wagon -- and a back seat that will accommodate two high-school-age kids in comfort. Fold the back seat down, and the Fit will haul as much cargo as a full-size SUV; flip the back seat cushion up and the Fit will accommodate tall, oddly-shaped items that can't lie flat (art projects, tall plants). All this in a small package that's easy to park and gets 35 MPG.However for parents out there, for maximum safety, buy the Sport model, which gets the electronic stability control.  

Standing in the 3rd place is the new Mazda CX-7!

The new CX-7 is the ultimate SUV crossover, combining sports car style with SUV capabilities.

Powered by the same 2.3 litre Direct Injection Spark Ignition (DISI) turbocharged in-line 4-cylinder engine as found in the Mazda6 MPS and Mazda3 MPS, the CX-7 delivers an outstanding 175kW of power and 350Nm of torque.To assist in transferring that power to the road the CX-7 also features a similar Active Torque Split (ATS) AWD system to that found in the Mazda6 MPS. This ensures that optimum torque is distributed to each wheel for maximum traction in dry, wet, bitumen, gravel or snow.

With standard performance and safety features such as Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) and Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), your CX-7 will perform well above expectations providing the safest journeys for mums and their kids. The CX-7’s standard features include; 6-speed Activematic transmission, air-conditioning, remote central locking, ‘dual stage’ door unlocking, DSC, TCS, ABS, six SRS airbags, power operated windows and mirrors, an MP3 compatible 6-disc CD player and auto headlamps on/off function. This is a great family car for busy mums with 2 or more kids, as this car adjusts to both a mum's working and family lifestyle providing them with the necessary spaces need and superior safety. 

Here you go! These are my top 3 picks for mummy cars! As I'm not yet a mum myself, for all the experienced mums out there please feel free to leave a comment below on what you think the best mummy cars are in today's market! 

 

Hot Sport Cars for Teen Girls

HOT HOT HOT!!! Sport Cars for the Girls of the 21st century!!!

While some girls want a small and comfortable car where they can decorate with their favorite toys and cushions. Other teen girls out there desires the need for speed, wanting to experience the hotness and the thrill of sport cars!

When we think of sport cars for girls, one usually arrives at an image of a convertible roadster that is small and compact, while fulfilling our need for speed! However, many of us often  fantasizes about driving a sport or race car to work. The power, the acceleration and the speed seem like they would be a dream come true on the road. Zoom! Zoom!

But why do us girls want and prefer the thrill of sport cars?

The major difference between a sport car and a normal one is the fact that sport cars have a stronger engine than the day to day vehicle. Most of the times, the sport engine has a bigger horse power which enables the driver to reach 60 miles per hour in no more than two or three seconds. On top of that, these cars are far faster than the others which means if you are looking for speed, you are looking in the right place!

The suspensions are also different as compared to the ones on the normal cars. Since they may arrive at the incredible speed of 300 km per hour, sport suspensions have to be able to support this aggressive driving style, to keep the car steady and give it a dynamic shape. The lower the ground clearance, the faster the sport car becomes; therefore, sport suspensions are usually smaller than normal ones.

So, if you’re looking for speed and sport car suspension then keep reading ;)

Although sport cars are difficult to drive for girls, as these cars are less comfortable than usual cars while they are extremely difficult to manage in the city, girls including myself still love them for their cool style and appearances!

So... Lets start with some of my favorite sports cars that in my opinion is more suitable for girls in terms of its style, interior & exterior designs along with its level of comfort!

First up! We have the popular Chevy Corvette, as the Corvette has always been an exciting American icon and at 26 mpg on the highway, things can only get better with its high speed and stability within the city environment.  To me, the Corvette is truly a sports car due to its’ sleek styling, agility and unquestionable ability to handle the road at high speeds. 

Second up! The Dodge Challenger R/T has also made it on to the list as the Challenger is simply a muscle car and a sports car combined.  This car is a car of immense strength, however, the design of this new Challenger leaves me wanting something more in the styling department and yet, I can’t quite put my finger on what that something more is. The Challenger R/T has has retro styling but in some situations, girls perfer this particular style, wanting the vintage look. 

Also if you are interested, check out the Lamborghini Murcielago LP640, Mazda MX-5, the Nissan 350Z, Porsche 911, Mitsubishi Eclipse, Saturn Sky, BMW M3, Porsche 911, Lamborghini Murcielago LP640, Nissan 350Z,Cadillac XLR,  Chrysler Crossfire, Dodge Viper, Honda S2000, Ferrari F430 Spider and Ferrari 430 Scuderia.

I think a sports car should handle well, hug the road at high speeds and of course, be stylish and fun to drive!!
