Awesome Power Potential

“The Shelby Mustang is a performance muscle car from the 1960s. It was a series of Ford Mustangs which were specially modified by Carroll Shelby's company and sold as a series.”

The 2007 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 is the most powerful factory-built Mustang in history. Even more powerful than the 1969 Mach Super Cobra Jet and the legendary 1969 Boss 429.

The 2008 Shelby GT500 is a carryover from 2007. It is a 2-door, 4-passenger sports car, or convertible sports car, available in two trims, the Coupe and the Convertible. It was revealed at the 2007 New York International Auto Show.


“Both trims are equipped with a standard 5.4 liter, V8, 500 horsepower, supercharged engine that achieves 14 mpg in the city and 20 mpg on the highway. A 6-speed manual transmission with overdrive is standard.”

The Shelby Coupe differs from an ordinary Mustang with unique front and rear styling. It has a unique rear fascia, and a bulging hood. It features Le Mans-style stripes along the top of the vehicle.

In its interior the car has its standard features such as 500-watt audio system with six-disc CD changer and MP3 capability, power door locks with remote keyless entry, and cloth bucket seats. It also has an interior upgrade package with satin aluminum trim etc. The all-leather interior has a Carroll Shelby signature embroidered headrests and an official Shelby CSM 40th Anniversary GT500KR

As far as safety features are concerned, the car is equipped with dual-stage front airbags, traction control, front passenger side-impact airbags and antilock brakes.

The Most Powerful Ford Taurus

Taurus has been a benchmark for Ford’s family sedan for more than two decades. So now it is time to return the powerful Taurus nameplate. The 2009 Ford Taurus model have gone into a significant styling facelift update and power upgrade. This vehicle was first introduced as a redesigned Ford 500. The 2008 Taurus is a 4-door, 5-passenger family sedan, available in 4 trims, ranging from the SEL FWD to the Limited AWD.

“The SEL FWD is equipped with a standard 3.5-liter, V6, 263-horsepower engine that achieves 18-mpg in the city and 28-mpg on the highway. The Limited AWD is equipped with a standard 3.5-liter, V6, 263-horsepower engine that achieves 17-mpg in the city and 24-mpg on the highway. A 6-speed automatic transmission with overdrive is standard on both trims.”

This new model has improved its safety with some structural improvements and an AdvanceTrac stability control system. It now has its functional voice command, with SYNC, an integrated, voice-activated communication and media system. SYNC allows you to access your music collection by genre, album, artist or song title and operate your Bluetooth phone and the premium stereo system is had been well improved.

This car looks decent as ever. But I understand the hate of some reviews. When the Taurus was first released, it was way ahead of the competition in every way including styling. But not anymore since it has been successful in the past couple of decades. This new model has improved well in its interior instead.

Nissan “Denki Cube” Electric Vehicle

The Nissan Denki Cube is a lithium-ion battery-powered electric vehicle concept created by Nissan. It was publicly displayed at the Nissan exhibit at Jacob Javits Convention Center from March 21 through March 30, 2008. This concept serves as a preview of Nissan's future small car design strategy for American market. Production of these electric vehicles may be expected to start in 2010.

The electric vehicle is based on Nissan’s Cube minicab. But unlike the old model, this concept is expected to draw power from lithium ion batteries. A recharge of the lithium-ion batteries may take about 8 hours. The Denki Cube Concept is expected to be capable of traveling 100 miles per charge at a top speed of 75 mph.

Its exterior features some new front and back styling upgrades, including a new "electric themed" front grille design with an AC power charging port. With a new headlight design, new bumpers and turn signal lamps.

I actually like it. I can say that it’s boxy but not unattractive, yet it is charming, fashionable and very functional. It is cute and it looks very convenient for delivery uses. The maintenance cost is expected to be low due to it is an electric car. This would be a very practical buy, and it’s perfect for persons who are sick and tired of sedans ordinary style.

With this vehicle, I can say that Nissan is focused on reducing CO2 emissions, reducing exhaust emissions, and accelerating recycling efforts which are very significant for the preservation of our environment.

Spada Codatronca Concept Supercar

This new super car was designed and produced by the Italian-design company, the SpadaConcept. The Spada Codatronca's style is inspired not by superhero cars but by the 1964 Alfa Romeo Giulia. The design is attributed to a team that includes father and son Ercole and Paolo Spada. Ercole Spada is an Italian automobile designer who is known for designing notable sports cars by Aston Martin, Ferrari, Maserati, and others.

The car is going to be unveiled in Monaco at the Top Marques show including a more powerful Turismo Super Sportivo version that’s currently under testing. This show gathers many manufacturers specialized in the field of the luxury and race cars.

To keep its cost low, the Codatronca was designed around the Corvette platform. Key features of this vehicle include its ultra-light structure, efficient aerodynamics, and its sharp agility. One strange thing that this vehicle has is its digital readout on the vehicle's rear which seems to display the car's current mph. It is the first of its kind, but I can’t quite figure out what that thing is for. Well maybe it will be a fun experience showing off your speed in the faces of those that get passed by this car.

This new super car will be manufactured in Turin by SpadaVettureSport, a company created and controlled by Spadaconcept. It will be built on Corvette’s chassis for a limited number. It would be great to see one of these traveling down the freeway, leaving all persons who see’s it truly amazed.
