Driving In The Winter — Safely!

Car Crashes No Comments »

061215_winterDriving_hLarge_12p.hlargeNow that the New Year is upon us and Christmas is over, it is all about getting through the winter so that you can get to Spring.  Well, there is still a heck of a lot of snow storms out there and if you are in one of those states that it never seems to stop snowing, I can tell you for sure that there are some tips out there that can help you with your driving.

Driving in the snow is something that a lot of people have to do every single day in the winter and I can tell you for sure that it is not easy.  One thing that you need to make sure that you do though is go slow.  Slowing down even if it is just to the speed limit can do wonders and make you that much safer.

You also want to make sure that you keep your windshield clean as well as keep your lights on, as that is something that will alert other drivers.

Distracted Driving — What It Can Do To You!

auto news No Comments »

texting-while-driving-1451I can honestly tell you that in this day and age, distracted drivers are what you constantly see on the road lately.  If you are a person who is constantly texting, constantly on the phone and constantly needing to update your status on Facebook, then this post is for you.

According to the many, many reports out there, I can tell you that if you are constantly texting or on the phone when you are driving, you are going to be about 23 percent higher risk to get into an accident.

Whenever you are texting or on the phone when you are driving – just remember that when you are splitting your attention, you are at a higher risk.

Vanessa Rousso: High Rolling in her Lamborghini

Uncategorized No Comments »

If you love poker, no doubt about it: you love Duke-graduate and Game Theory ambassador Vanessa Rousso. I’m convinced the young poker goddess knows her cars, but it doesn’t appear like it in the video from Cardplayer TV below. She missed a little preperation here, and it doesn’t make her look good.

Vanessa looks great however, and so does the Lamborghini Gallardo!

GM & Saab: What Is Going To Happen?

Saab No Comments »

saab_250Oh, GM – what are you going to do now with Saab?  With all of the deals and news swirling around this particular brand, I can tell you for sure that this particular brand … Saab is not going to be going anywhere or… they are not going to be making anymore deals for the brand.

It seems that Saab is pretty much stuck with GM for right now and although Spyker automaker wanted to buy it – put two offers on it, GM has decided that they are not going to make anymore announcements or they are not going to make any changes.

To me – this is sad; I want to see what is going to happen to the Saab brand, but that is just me.

Rolls-Royce Phantom Electric — Could Be Here Sooner!

Hybrid Cars No Comments »

Rolls-Royce Phantom Rumors – that is all I am hearing about right now and we are going to add some more fuel to the fire of the rumormill and tell you that the electric Rolls-Royce Phantom might actually hit the streets in as little as 12 months!  Right now, BMW – which is Rolls-Royce’s parent company have been getting very involved in EV technology and the Rolls-Royce Phantom would be the best choice to launch this new technology onto.

Since Rolls-Royce Phantom owners right now usually like to be driven versus actually driving, the EV Phantom seems to make sense on a lot of different levels.  Not only given the sheer size of the car but also – this car is expensive and looks incredible.

If you have been waiting for the entirely-electric Rolls-Royce Phantom – I can tell you that it is just around the corner!

Car Wash News: Naked Australians Reportedly Arrested At Car Wash!

auto news No Comments »

aussie_carwashOkay, so we have this thing at work every period where you can spin a wheel and win prizes.  I won a car wash.  When you think about a car wash, you go through the wash and have someone towel dry it most of the time right?  Well, in Australia it has to be different because I guess naked Australians were actually arrested at a recent car wash!

According to our friends at autoblog.com, a group of four men and their girlfriends pulled up to a Smart Wash in Biloela, Queensland Australia and they paid for the service.  They left their cars outside, took off their clothes and soaped up in the station while their special lady friends actually snapped photos.

This – in America would not go down at all, but really, it does sound pretty hot doesn’t it?

GM to offer in-vehicle WiFi on select models

auto news No Comments »

GM to offer in-vehicle WiFi on select modelsIn this day and age, we all seem to be glued to our cell phones or worse, our laptops.  I know that personally – I have been waiting for an automaker to come up with some way to incorporate WiFi into my car and now – now they have.  GM is actually thinking about making this a standard on a few models, which to me is pretty cool!

Autonet is the name of it and it is actually a device that is going to in your car.  The full price for installation of this particular device is about $500.00, but it could become a standard eventually on every car if the popularity keeps up – which it should!

If you are looking for Autonet cars, you might want to check out GMC, Chevrolet, Buick, and Cadillac cars.

The Infiniti Essence Concept: Infinitely Hot!

Nissan No Comments »

infiniti-essence-conceptAh, the Infiniti Essence concept, part of the celebration for the twentieth anniversary for that favorite luxury brand, Nissan Infiniti — of course. This is a dramatic, two seater coupe, featuring the classic proportions of the ever popular GT along with current elements known in the Infiniti brand.

This concept is the work of individual global competition; great minds were at work to create the stunning, smooth, sleek design of this car.

To me, this car almost looks too elegant, luxurious, and sophisticated to even belong to the Nissan name.  It almost looks like it should be coming from Porsche or something — or maybe I am just naive, I do not know.

Still, I am definitely not going to deny that this is one hot car, with plenty of sleek lines and a smooth silhouette.

BMW C1-E Concept: Check It Out!

BMW No Comments »

BMW C1-E Concept So, I think that BMW certainly has the right … the best concept in the world, for it is not only just a scooter but it is a scooter that can really go anywhere and has an electric engine, so it is very eco-friendly and safe.  The BMW C1-E Concept is right now, just a concept and while I love this little rider, I think that it might need some work.

Between 2000 and 2003, BMW released a similar scooter and it was not all that safe … only because if you got into an accident, you were most likely screwed.  Now though, the BMW C1-E Concept has tire pressure control, anti-slip control and traction control – so safety is definitely there!

If you are wondering what exactly you would use this scooter for, think about it … you could ride it to work, the store – so many different places!

The 2010 Porsche 911 GT3 RS Is Hottttt!

Porsche 1 Comment »

2010 Porsche 911 GT3 RS So I know that I have wrote about the 2010 Porsche 911 GT3 RS before and honestly – this is a car that I thought looked cool, until I noticed the red … everything about this car was cool until the red came into place!  However – in person, the red does not look too bad.  Against the slate gray of this particular car, it actually looks pretty damn cool!

Now – I know that you all want the 2010 Porsche 911 GT3 RS, however.  I have to say that it is going to cost you.  The money that you sink into getting this car could wreck your life, drain your bank account or even your 401K and – while it might seem worth it, let’s face it … it is!

The 2010 Porsche 911 GT3 RS is awesome!  It is so awesome that it really, really is the car of the friggin’ year!
