bmw m3 gtr new

The BMW M3 is a high-performance version of the BMW 3 Series, developed by BMW's tuning branch BMW M. M3 models have been derived from the E30, E36, E46 and E90/E92/E93 3-series, and sold with coupé, sedan and convertible body styles. Common upgrades over the "standard" 3-Series automobiles include more powerful and responsive (yet at times smaller) engines, improved handling/suspension/braking systems, more aggressive aerodynamics/body, and multiple interior/exterior accents with the famed tri-color "M" (Motorsport) emblem.

Related BMW 3 Series

Based on the 1986 model year E30 3-Series, the first M3 was introduced with a 2.3 L I4 S14B23 engine (or S14 in shorthand). The engine design was based on various BMW genealogy: basic block layout from the M10 4 cylinder (found in the 2002 and 320 series) overbored and reinforced to similar specifications of the BMW M88 inline-6. The valve train and head architecture from BMW's M1 and, later, M6 inline-6 cylinder was adopted for aggressive breathing, resulting in outstanding performance for the day.

The most notable characteristic of the E30 M3 (relative to later M3 iterations) is its racing pedigree. It was campaigned by BMW as well as other racing teams including Prodrive and AC Schnitzer competing in many forms of racing including rally as well as German, British, Italian, Belgian, French and Australian touring.

One of the main reasons for production of the road car was to homologate the M3 for Group A Touring Car racing. One of the reasons often cited for its creation was that it was to compete with the "2.3-16V"-model of the Mercedes-Benz W201 190E which was introduced in 1983, although this was only speculative. When the E30 M3 was in its final years of top level competition, the 2.5 liter S14 engine in full race trim was capable of over 340 hp (250 kW) naturally aspirated.

he three-door LRX cross-coupé, with its more compact size, lighter weight and sustainability-focused technologies, is said to offer the potential of 120 g/km CO2 emissions and fuel economy'smanaging director, stated: “The LRX concept delivers the powerful message that we are as serious about sustainability as we are confident about the continuing relevance and desirability of our vehicles. LRX has unmistakable Land Rover design and the breadth of capability that you would expect from our vehicles. But it carries those essentials into a segment where the brand has never been before, and with a proposed level of efficiency that would make it one of the cleanest vehicles in its class.”Land Rover’s LRX is designed as a highly fuel-efficient 2.0-litre, turbodiesel hybrid, capable of running on bio-diesel. In combination with other Land Rover technologies, this power train could reduce fuel consumption by as much as 30 per cent compared with other 4x4 cars of similar size. The concept's integrated Electric Rear Axle Drive (ERAD) is particularly significant in Land Rover terms, as it would enable the LRX to use electric drive alone at lower speeds while retaining full (or improved) off-road ability. Unlike the hybrid technology used by some other 4x4 cars, Land Rover's concept retains mechanical drive to all four wheels. Off-road, the ERAD would provide additional torque only when it is needed and, with maximum electrical torque available from standstill, this system offers even better low-speed control and enhanced pull-away on difficult surfaces. On the road, the ERAD would allow low-speed traffic creep at speeds of up to 32 km/h (20 mph) on electric power alone, with the integrated starter-generator (ISG) restarting the engine automatically when needed. The electric drive would then continue to assist the mechanical drive until the engine is running in its most efficient range, thereby benefiting both fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. The ISG control system would also stop the engine automatically when the vehicle halts in traffic, and restart it quickly and smoothly as required.Of course, the LRX is not solely an exercise in environmentally-aware off-road driving. For example, on either side of the horizontally-split, power-operated tailgate, there are removable speakers with an iPod docking station. The tailgate has two padded seating areas, between which are integral aluminium cup holders, and there is also a coolbox and a bottle chiller.Sports carSome people might find it surprising that a company such as Land Rover is focusing on the environment with a class of vehicle that is not generally thought of as being 'green', but the same could also be said of sports car manufacturers. Nevertheless, companies such as Morgan and Lotus are also working on ‘green’ projects. The Morgan LIFECar, for example, was unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2008. RiverSimple, which led the project, says the LIFECar (lightweight integrated fuel-efficient car) summarises the company’s three key design principles: whole-system design, energy efficiency and resource minimisation. Hugo Spowers, the founder of OSCar Automotive and managing partner at RiverSimple, sought to demonstrate with the LIFECar project that significant gains in fuel efficiency could be achieved with readily available technology – though little information has so far been released about the supercapacitors in which the LIFECar would store energy. In order for this project to take place, and with the support of the Morgan Motor Company, Spowers formed the LIFECar consortium with Cranfield University, Linde, Oxford University and QinetiQThe LIFECar combines a hydrogen fuel cell with a bank of ultracapacitors such that cruise and acceleration requirements are decoupled and resolved in a highly optimised fashion. By combining these technologies with a lightweight structure, the LIFECar is intended to achieve a combination of performance, cost-effectiveness and fuel efficiency. To keep the weight down to the target of 650 kg, the LIFECar uses technologies that Morgan currently employs in its Aero 8,

his car became more famous than ever after the Gone in 60 Seconds movie, where it got its name - Eleanor. The car in the movie was a modified version of 1967 GT500 and featured extensive external body upgrades. Since it became so popular, and it is obvious why, Shelby started production of Mustang GT-500Es. Everyone just went crazy for it. Even a couple of years after the movie, Eleanor is still exceptionally popular. In USA, there are a couple of workshops that offer outstanding Eleanor replicas with even more power than the original version had.With its teardrop windows, almond headlamps, billowing fenders and other quite organized details; the 8C is stunningly beautiful and sexy in its each and every look. The wheels of the 8C have already been ranked among the ten hottest wheels of the year. It features quite charming face metal while underhood looks as charming as its wrapper. Indeed, a nice option for those who want nice functionality with astounding amount of beautyThink of it this way, the Ferraris and Lamborghinis of today will look outdated and ridiculous i10 years time, while the DB9 will still look the part. Instead of going for a futuristic look, Aston Martin has styled the DB9 to be the best looking Grand Tourer on the planet today. A timeless shape.The DB9 doesn’t have to shout with its looks, like a patient predator, the DB9 can sit calmly next to a café as you enjoy a drink, but when its time to go, it will turn every head with its presence. Initially when we picked up the Aston we nearly walked right past it, it’s a case of a double-take with the DB9, you look, and then you look again and realise that you have just laid eyes upon a masterpiece.

Optional extras can be purchased from Honda Dealers/Service Centers all around Malaysia at retail price. A 3 year Warranty is standard for all Jazzes purchased from Authorized Honda Dealers in MalaysiaHonda marketed the Fit as "Small is the New Big".[19] The Car and Driver magazine described that "[n]ot only is it endowed with an impressive array of standard features and an upscale interior, but its dynamics rival the responses of cars with much fancier pedigrees and price tags." The magazine even cited its lane-change number of 71.4 mph edged the best run by a Ferrari F430 Spider F1 tested.[20] And the car was included in Car and Driver's 10 Best Lists for three times.[21] In May 2006, Fit was placed first in a Car and Driver comparison of seven economy cars that included Nissan
Best of all, visibility for the driver and passengers is good. Everyone sits up on seats that are positioned higher than those in a regular car. Using the manual height adjustment for the driver Large windows all around the Fit plus a roofline that's 5 feet off the ground add an open feel. I appreciate that Honda installed small, rectangular glass sections at the lower edge of each side of the windshield, rather than building a thick metal pillar there. It meant I could more readily spot pedestrians in crosswalks as I made turnsprefer a Fit with five-speed manual transmission, rather than the five-speed automatic that was in the test car. The manual creates a more hands-on feel for the driver that fits this entry-level car and makes for a spunkier feel. The tester with automatic, however, felt more like it was going through its paces, and even the paddle shifters on the steering wheel that allowed for manual shifting sans clutch pedal didn't remedy the experience muchThe Honda Fit is the all new "car" from Honda. I say "car" because this is not a mid sized car and its not a mini van either, its both. The Honda Fit is called Fit for a reason. Although it might not look like it it is very roomy. This car has more room on the inside then most SUVs have, but it looks more stylish and it is more gas efficientWhat makes the Fit so roomy is what is know as 2nd-row Magic Seat. What this does is it fold the second row of seats and creates so much room that it makes the room of the SUVs look small. This car is now being introduced because people need smaller cars with more room, and with today's soaring gas prices the Honda Fit is the perfect solution. The Honda Fit 5-speed
