aston-martin-rapide-part-2_lead_gloThe second part of the film presenting the Aston Martin Rapide is now released. Action of the second also takes place in Lisbon, but this time at night. Dirty people, dirty work - so it can be summarized. Aston Martin ventured up to the fight scene. Too bad that it looks so fake and unnatural.

I wonder what will happen, when the last part comes - Rapide will be distributed for free? Or Cygnet at least? I dont think that this movie impresses anyone.

audi-rs3968_gloAudi has released their new movie presenting RS3, with 340 horsepower engine with turbo. Video takes place in Canada, and by the half of the video, car drifts on the snow.

Overall, I do not know what Audi was willing to achieve by throwing it to the Internet. The vast majority of cars with rear-wheel drive rides through the snow as well. Nah - even FWD cars could do the same. So, quattro drive equipped RS3 does absolutely nothing outstanding here.

fert5rzlot489748_gloHow about golden Ferrari? I met a short video showing such a car. As you probably guessed (like myself), “action” takes place in the United Arab Emirates. These particular 599 GTB Fiorano was able to visit the German tuner - Hamann’s.

Subtle changes make it slightly different from the original one. Added gentle spoilers, new rims and added 53 hp to already impressive 620 hp. Of course, plus a gold-plated body. Price? Unknown.

21095a958b_glopitshburg_gloThis movie smashes our Polish “ale urwał!”, which can simply leave and never to return. On one of the very steep and very icy roads in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, few cars have crashed badly.

Domino, bowling - you name it. Picture is quite interesting. It’s hard to blame the drivers. Ultimately, they just wanted to pass along this street. On the road like this, without special tires, you can not do absolutely nothing.

italia89493487_gloYou were waiting entire life for this moment - imagine that your dreams finally came true  and you just earned Italia Ferrari 458. You make your way into the showroom, get the keys,  a little paperwork and have it to yourself.

Get in, start and burn your engine at high rpm. Fold the corner, fly sideways, you’re in  seventh heaven. The next day you wake up, glad you’re moving, and after driving several  miles, when you think that 458 Italia no longer has any secrets from you, you get a skid  and smash into a tree … in front of the Ferrari headquarters in Maranello.

1997-rover-55_gloPictures of the concealed for the years concept Rover from 1997 appeared over the  Internet. The car was meant to be somewhat smaller than 75, but larger than the models  marked by symbols 25 and 45. Rover has called his project 55, but mainly for financial  reasons car never went into production, although the owner, BMW, associated Rover with  great hopes.

Unfortunately, I do not know anything about the units which were to drive the car. But I  am convinced that if the car was introduced to production, sales results would certainly  be better than Jaguar model 75, whose quality leaves much to be desired, and whose owners  could not afford a Jaguar, and wanted to have something better than Ford Mondeo.

honda-civic-lexus-_gloEurope and Asia are two distinct visions when it comes to culture, life as well as cars. What the Chinese or Russians consider lofty, for the Europeans will probably be saturated with kitsch. This time we have prepared for you an Asian tuning result from Thailand.

The base model car that you see on your screen above is the latest generation of Honda Civic sedan. Looking at the rear of the car, we have the impression that Civic was Lexus  wannabe, but quick glance at the front, and… bam, the Toyota Crown. The profile of this weird creature, however, gives us another contradictory message that it was not Lexus, not Toyota but Honda Civic sedan, which probably suffered a mental collapse, which is reflected by slightly masked wheels with massive wheel arches.

corvette-vision-concept1_gloSurprising information about the latest  Chevrolet Corvette (C7) appeared recently on  the Internet. As reported by Saab management,  Swedish engineers together with their  colleagues from GM, have been working on a  special dual-clutch, which could carry up to  590 Nm of maximum torque. Unfortunately, work  stopped in 2008 due to global crisis.
More interestingly, the latest Corvette’a will  be powered by economic, turbocharged V6 engine.  Production of this monster will start in April  2012. Cars will be made of light alloy, which  reduces fuel consumption and improves  performance.

2010-volvo-c70-13_gloNew Chinese owner of the Swedish Volvo  announces major changes in the strategy. The  Chinese want to sell annually about 380 000  cars, so that Volvo will be one hundred percent  profitable investment.

To obtain such a high result, however, is not  easy - Geely has decided that it will be  necessary to market a new model - it will be a  little larger sedan than S80, which will be put  in a luxury car segment, such as the Audi A8,  BMW 7 Series, Mercedes Class S or Jaguar XJ.
