Rendered: Ferrari 612 GTO

LI-MAN — Tue, 22 Jun 2010 00:55:13 +0000

Angry Car Designer, Sasha Selipanov, showcased her rendered designs of the 612 GTO for Ferrari.

It was just really for fun and the car does not follow the lines of the 612 Scaglietti nor is it a preview of the 4-seater vehicle on steroids. The 612 GTO is more of a display of great design lines with the rendered Ferrari borrowing some lines and elements from the One-77 by Aston Martin, 250 GTO, 8C Competizione by Alfa Romeo, and the 458 Italia.

The headlights are similar to those of the 458 Italia, side vents of the 250 GTO, a massive grille work, and hips of the One-77. At the rear end you will see a diffuser, dual exhaust, and a nice glasswork.

The car is truly an eye candy. It received some negative and positive feedbacks as it makes it round all over the blogdome. Some say it is just a patch of every good sports car in the market. Some commented that it looks a hot Japanese speed monster.

For us, the car looks good. The rendering was done in high quality. We are pretty sure Ferrari noticed. Maybe it will give them a hint that the market is looking for the old flare of their design lines.

Safety Tips & Features To Look For!

Heather — Sat, 03 Apr 2010 20:24:30 +0000

Although finding a car can be difficult, finding a very safe car is an even more daunting task, as you probably really have no idea exactly what you are looking for. That is what we are here for, to make sure that your job is a little bit easier and to ensure that you do, in fact, buy an extremely safe car.

One of the first things that you might want to look for is rear parking sensors. This definitely comes in handy whenever you are living in a city that you have to Parall Park a lot, as you never know when you might be backing up too much. These sensors will actually assist you with parking and truly make sure that you realize how close you are.

You also want to make sure that the antilock brakes are there as well, as this actually stops your cars brakes from locking up, which is safer.

Spring is all about the bright and brilliant colors and I can tell you for sure that there is going to be a heck of a lot more yellow cars on the road, as they it is certainly one of the most popular colors, especially during the spring months.

More and more, yellow is popping up and most of the time, it is not just that banana yellow either, it is actually a yellow that is pastel as well, which is a yellow that I like better. It is toned down and looks great.

Want to be a little different than the norm? That is what yellow is all about guys!

What Do You Think of the Bertone Pandion Concept?

Heather — Sun, 21 Feb 2010 19:44:03 +0000

How many of us dream of owning luxury cars? I have to tell you, in my time spent on this blog, I have particularly become a fan of luxury European cars — French, Italian, German, British. Jaguars — old ones, not new ones — have always been and will always be my absolute favorites but I think Bertone models are seriously sexy as well.

This is Stile Bertone’s new concept, called the Pandion, and this is one of the pictures that have been leaked onto the internet — way earlier than the car was supposed to be seen. Oops! But good for us!

The Pandion is based around the uber sleek 8C Competizione, courtesy of Alfa, which pretty much explains why it looks the way it does: like sex on four wheels.

Now 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.

Vanessa Rousso: High Rolling in her Lamborghini

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?

Heather — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 01:03:55 +0000

Oh, 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.
