2011 Mazda 5 Review, Picture,Price,Feature,Product Development

The 2011 Mazda 5 has been introduced in the 2010 Geneva Motor Show on March 2 and 3, 2010. Car with a dynamic and elegant design of this will be on sale in autumn 2010. Design language, which finds inspiration in the beauty of flows found in nature.

Nagare design has appeared in certain elements of recent production models and was previously showcased through a series of concept cars. The new Mazda 5’s design achieves excellent aerodynamic characteristics with an outstanding drag coefficient and lift balance. In order to meet wide-ranging customer requirements, it also offers a high level of functionality, with dual sliding rear doors and multiple seat arrangements.

With its surprisingly spacious, easy-to-reconfigure interior, Mazda 5 is capable of juggling work, home and recreation with remarkable skill and efficiency. Its independently folding second- and third- row seats also give you the ability to create a virtually flat cargo that's over five feet long. All of which make the Mazda 5 capable of accommodating everything from three couples to a pair of mountain bikes. Even its extra-wide, easy-glide rear doors are designed to make loading and unloading incredibly convenient-as is its ultralight rear liftgate, which also features dual heights position. Best of all. the Mazda 5 wraps it all in nothing-else-like-it design that delivers fun, versatility and value in a way that's nothing short of athletic

1967 Shelby GT500 Review,Price,Product Development,Picture

1967 Shelby GT500 Review,Price,Product Development,Picture

Mention a 1967 Shelby GT500 and right away the first car that comes to everyone’s mind is the star of Gone in 60 Seconds. No, we are not talking about Nicholas Cage or Angelina Jolie, we are talking about the beautifully sleek and sexy Eleanor. This is a car that needs no introduction, so it’s no wonder that people are wanting to try and recreate the spirit of this very car.

One of those people is RK Motors, who, in collaboration with Pro Touring Super Cars, have developed a 1967 Shelby Supercharged GT500 that is beyond any imagination. For starters, they took the body of a 1967 GT500 and then added a modern engine to create a perfect combination. After that the tuner added the rear cap and integrated spoiler, C-pillar and quarter panel scoops, nose cone with center-mounted lights, and a vented Shelby hood. After adjusting every detail of the body, RK Motors applied a spectacular Acapulco Blue paint combined with Shelby stripes.

The body on this ‘67 was given a rotisserie restoration, which means that it was fixed and smoothed inside and out, top and bottom. Anything that needed attention, got it, and everything was put into better-than-new condition before any paint was sprayed. The idea was a showcase, remember? Gaps were adjusted until they were far better than the factory could ever manage, and the hood was finished to levels that nobody at the Shelby factory could have imagined was possible in 1967. Once everything was straight, that spectacular Acapulco Blue paint was applied using 2-stage urethane. Shelby stripes were sprayed, then buried under the clear, and Shelby GT500 callouts were applied to the rockers. Additional Shelby details include the rear cap and integrated spoiler, C-pillar and quarter panel scoops, nose cone with center-mounted lights, and that vented Shelby hood (and if you’ve seen originals, you know how wavy they really were).

Without looking under the hood, you could be forgiven for thinking this was a real Shelby.But the real treat is the supercharged 2004 Cobra motor under the hood. If you’ve been following Ford performance for the past 15 years or so, you know that these 4-cam motors can make BIG power from their relatively modest displacement. With forced induction, they breathe better than a big block and put down some astounding numbers while maintaining incredible civility. And if you’ve ever heard one at full song, you know what I’m talking about?they have just about the sweetest exhaust note this side of a Ferrari V8. The motor in this ‘67 is a built 2004 Cobra piece that features a custom induction system to fit it into the ’67’s engine bay. There’s a smaller pulley on the supercharger to up the boost (these engines with their forged bottom ends can easily handle a lot more boost than the factory permits), and a custom Aeromotive fuel system to ensure that it is adequately fed at all speeds.

A custom heat exchanger and reservoir were crafted to allow it all to fit under the Shelby hood, and up front, a massive aluminum radiator keeps it cool no matter how hard you run. A set of custom-built headers handle the exhaust and if anything, they magnify that sweet engine note. The engine was beautifully dressed with custom painted cam covers that look a lot like Boss 429 or SOHC 427 pieces?perfect for the 1967 body. It even features cool “Powered by Ford” logos for a distinctly Shelby touch. With a custom ECM programmed by the experts at Speed, Inc., it starts instantly, idles perfectly even when it’s cold, and pulls like a freight train. There are no flat spots in the power curve, and I know this because there’s a dyno sheet that comes with the car showing that it just keeps climbing and climbing to a peak of 444 horsepower and 495 pounds of torque at the wheels?impressive!

2010 Dacia Duster Ice Racer review,picture,price, and more

2010 Dacia Duster Ice Racer review,picture,price, and more
Alain Prost, widely regarded as one of the fiercest Formula One drivers in history and the most heated rival of the late, great Ayrton Senna, is still hacking up race tracks in France these days, albeit on a much different terrain. The former Formula One Driver’s Champion’s competitive racing juices are now on full display at the Andros Trophy racing series, the national Ice Racing championship of France.

Last year, Prost raced behind the wheel of a Dacia Duster Ice Racer and proceeded to show everybody that despite his age, he still managed to finish runner-up for the season, trailing only two-time Andros champion Jean-Philippe Dayraut on-board his Fabia Skoda MKII.

"I am delighted to be driving the Dacia Duster," said Prost. It is a brand new vehicle, and I am proud to be able to play a part in its promotion to the unusual backdrop of the Trophée Andros. Thanks to the work put in by Renault Sport Technologies, I have every confidence in Dacia Duster's potential and reliability which together point to an extremely exciting season".

The car is 4 metres long, 1.9m wide, weighs 950kg and has a fuel tank capacity of 25 litres. It features a double wishbone suspension and the Renault-Nissan alliance's VQ 30 engine with a displacement of 3.0-litres. Maximum power is 257kW (350hp) at 7,500rpm and peak torque is 360Nm at 5,500rpm. A 6-speed SADEV sequential transmission drives both axles. Wheels are 5.5" x 16" magnesium types shod with Continental Racing Contact 3 tyres.

Dacia Duster has a large benefit from the expertise acquired by Renault Sport Technologies in motor sport. Fiberglass body hides a tubular chassis that houses, three-liter 24-valve V6 engine from the range of Renault-Nissan Alliance. this powerplant has been tuned carefully in order to optimize the potential of performance at high altitudes where the race will be held. It produces 350hp peak power at 7500 rpm and maximum torque of 360Nm at 5500 rpm. Six-speed sequential gearbox ensures fast, precise gearshifts, even when flying through a corner at full song. The location of the mid-rear engine describes the work that has gone to improve weight distribution, in accordance with minimum requirements and weight of 950kg with a view to keeping the center of gravity low and to minimize the polar inertia for improved control.
