Chevrolet Camaro made in North America by the Chevrolet Motor Division of General Motors. It was introduced in September 1966 as a 1967 model year and was designed as a competing model to the Ford Mustang. The all new Camaro will begin with early production versions at the end of 2008 and will go on sale in the first quarter of 2009. “The new Camaro will be almost identical to the concept, a thoroughly modern interpretation of the 1969 model, considered by many to be the best design of the car’s first generation”. The front engine, rear wheel drive sport coupe will feature an independent rear suspension, and will be offered in a variety of models with the choice of manual and automatic transmissions and V-6 and V-8 engines.


Best-laid affairs generally run into trouble, as Robert Burns implied. Take the 2010 Chevy Camaro. Falling home values, bound credit, new aggrandizement worries, and almanac gas prices were not on anyone's alarm about three years ago, if General Motors hinted at the acknowledgment of its adventurous rear-wheel-drive Ford Mustang-fighter. Now that absolute bread-and-butter storm is still evolving and battering new-vehicle sales, yet GM couldn't allow to stop the car at this backward stage. That's why the 2010 Chevy Camaro remained on clue to a early-2009 debut.
The 2010 Chevy Camaro accustomed in three auto models blooming on the big-buzz 2006 Detroit Auto Show concept. Convertible versions (previewed by a 2007 Detroit concept) were to be added during the 2010 archetypal run, but now they'll arise in aboriginal 2011. A new high-performance Z28 copy was anticipation for model-year 2011, but it reportedly has been shelved. Chevy appropriately renews the "ponycar" action it endure waged with Ford in 2002. It aswell takes on a reincarnated Dodge Challenger that angled aback in 2008 in hot SRT8 guise and added lower-cost boilerplate V6 and V8 models for 2009.

The 2010 Chevy Camaro calendar starts with coupes in abject LS and uplevel LT trim that backpack the 3.6-liter twincam V6 with absolute bang that is acclimated in Cadillac's entry-level CTS exceptional midsize sedan. In Camaro tune, the V6 is rated at 304 horsepower. The top of the band is a acceptable performance-oriented SS archetypal with a 6.2-liter V8 adopted from abject Chevy Corvettes. In Camaros, the V8 comes in two flavors. Cars with the 6-speed chiral get a LS3 rated at 426 horses. In addition nod to ambiguous petrol prices, cars with the automated are able with a L99 that will accept GM's gas-saving Active Ammunition Management cylinder-deactivation arrangement and about 400 ponies. All these models should account 6-speed chiral and alternative 6-speed automated transmissions.


So here it is, the new 2011 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible. What do you do when a new model of a particular car will be launched in about a year? You leak the photos of it on your Facebook Fan page… which is exactly what Chevrolet has done with the upcoming Camaro Convertible.

You can clearly see that the Carmaro pictured here is something a little different from what we have seen on the road, for obvious reasons. For 2011 Chevrolet will officially offer a soft-top convertible version of the Camaro. The one pictured here is a V6 RS model with the fake hood scoop and rear back-up sensors in the rear bumper. We should get some more official photos from Chevrolet soon.

The brief issued to those who would define the package of the new Bentley GT coupé was one of the most challenging of the entire project. It is true that today some dedicated supercars are capable of producing performance similar to that of the GT coupé; likewise there is a small number of large coupés capable of carrying four people in comfort. The design specification for the GT coupé was that it must not only house the hardware safely to realise 180mph plus performance – including a 6-litre, twin-turbocharged, 12-cylinder engine – but that it must also carry four people. The design specification of the GT coupé allowed that a family of four and their luggage should be able to cross a continent in comfort, style and luxury.

Of course, it could have been achieved through the simple expedient of making the GT coupé bigger. But the team at Crewe was determined to ensure the car stayed compact, agile and fully capable of delivering on its promise to the driver.

Genuine Two Plus Two

Providing more than adequate space in the rear was an imperative design hard point of the GT coupé. In recent years many effectively two seat sportscars have been brought to market with tiny hollowed out shells behind the front seats, allowing their makers to describe the car as a ‘two plus two’. When Bentley refers to the GT coupé as a two plus two, it uses the phrase in its original context which implies a car capable of carrying two adults and two children in comfort for unlimited distances.

Powertrain Packaging

Surprisingly, the first big challenge for the designers of the GT coupé concerned neither passenger nor luggage space. It concerned the installation of its 6-litre, twin-turbo Bentley engine, its all-wheel drive hardware and a new six speed automatic transmission. This job was made especially difficult by the prerequisite that one of the key Bentley styling cues, a very short front overhang, was retained.

Once the problem of creating an effective crash structure in the small area in front of the front wheels had been solved, attention turned to the engine and gearbox. Firstly, the new transmission was modified by moving the differential forward, which allowed the drive shafts to be as far forward as possible, thus enabling the wheels to be close to the front of the car.

The second requirement was to package not only a large displacement engine, but also its turbochargers, and to create enough space around the whole for it to operate efficiently, and keep under-bonnet temperatures low.

Casting the engine block in a ‘W’ rather than a ‘V’ formation has made the engine much more space efficient than a conventional twelve cylinder motor of similar capacity. The configuration is best understood as two very narrow angle (15deg) V6 engines joined on a common crankshaft. So because the cylinders of each bank are staggered rather than in line, the result is an engine that’s shorter and easier to package. And, as we shall see, this not only helped with the packaging of the engine bay, it also liberated more room in the passenger area too.

Cabin Comfort

Turning to the cabin, the next challenge for Bentley’s packaging experts was to achieve a low, rakish roofline and still provide a new level of comfort and space for such a car. The opposing interests of space and sportiness were resolved by simple, clear thought and an idea borrowed, of all things, from off-road vehicles.

Off-roaders may have many on-road limitations, but there is much to be learned from the driving position of the best of them. Jim Shaw, head of packaging for the GT coupé, explains: “Ask most people what they like most about their off-roaders and they’ll talk about the elevated driving position. However if you apply science to what they are saying it becomes clear that a relatively upright seating position places your lower limbs in harmony. Drive a car a very long way, as we intend this car to be driven, and you’ll find the full benefits of comfort and relaxation that have been achieved through this seating concept.”

But finding the correct basic seat position for those in the front was only the start. Mindful of the fact that drivers do not all come in the same convenient size, Bentley’s packaging team resolved to ensure that the GT coupé fitted a wider range of potential Bentley customers than any other coupé in its history. And job one in this quest was to travel to New York and measure some professional basketball players. This led to exhaustive adjustment and extension of the seat runners until the car was capable of accommodating people for whom supercars could hitherto not even be considered.

Crewe Craftsmanship

Perhaps just as importantly, typical Bentley aficionados will also discover that for all the change the GT coupé has brought, some things remain the same. This may be a 21st century car but it would not be a Bentley unless the cabin had been appointed in wood and leather using skills handed down from generation to generation at Crewe. Using the finest veneers and hides, Bentley’s craftsmen have created a cabin ambience that marries modern design and traditional materials with rare harmony.

Where appropriate, state of the art manufacturing techniques have been used to create a thoroughly modern feel – and you’ll notice it most in the extraordinary curves and shapes the team has been able to fashion from wood – but the labour-intensive hand finishing that’s a hallmark of all Bentley cars is as crucial to the GT coupé as any to have been built at Crewe.

Luggage Space

Because touring requires comfort and space for occupants and commensurate space in the boot, Bentley applied similarly exacting standards to luggage stowage. The first decision to be made was to site the fuel tank in the floor of the car and not, as convention dictates in this class, between the rear seat and the boot. This was not an easy task, given the tank’s 90-litre capacity, but it was worth it for not only does this allow an exceptional 355-litre boot volume, but also it permits a through-loading facility. For GT coupé customers, particularly those looking to take advantage of its all-wheel drive traction on winter sports holidays, this facility has vast appeal in allowing two sets of skis as well as two snowboards to be carried and renders redundant unsightly and unsecure roof-racks.

Those looking to house more conventional loads will find space for two large and one medium suitcase – more than enough to cope with a fortnight’s holiday – while golf fans will find room for two full sized golf bags with still enough room left over for a suitcase.

“The Bentley GT coupé design brief posed questions that I had hitherto never encountered,” said Bentley Motors concepts and packaging manager Jim Shaw. “Just how do you fit a 6-litre, twin-turbo engine complete with four-wheel drive system into a car capable of carrying four people and their luggage in comfort, whilst retaining all the classic Bentley styling cues? I believe we have more than succeeded, exceeding even our own expectations, and that we have created the only bona fide supercar capable of being enjoyed by more than two people at any one time.”

The Nissan 350Z is a two seat sports car manufactured by Nissan Motor Co, LTD. The 350Z is the fifth (and current) generation of Nissan's Z-car line, originally introduced in 1969 (as a 1970 model year) as the Datsun 240Z. The 350Z entered production in late 2002 and was sold and marketed as a 2003 model. It is currently available in several trim packages and is sold as both a coupé and roadster.



The 350Z is a front engine rear-wheel-drive two door sports car designed by Ajay Panchal of Nissan Design America.



The vehicle features the long-hood short-deck design common to the Z-Car family. Currently, external design highlights include: sloping fastback style roof line, unique brushed aluminum door handles, high waistline, and bulging fenders that are pushed out to the corners of the vehicle.



Interior cabin design is straight forward with brushed aluminum accents. The main gauge pod is mounted directly to the steering column allowing their movement to coincide with steering wheel adjustments. Additional gauges are mounted in a centre triple gauge cluster. The 350Z’s interior does not have a conventional glove box, instead it makes use of various storage compartments located either behind or between the two seats.



The car is used in import events and drifting, where in the latter, some drivers have started to use them in the D1 Grand Prix and Formula D series. At the 2006 D1GP exhibition event at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Tanner Foust became the first driver to score a perfect 100 points in a 350Z. In the non-Japanese domestic D1GP spinoff series, D1 Great Britain (D1GB), there are two Z33s that compete in the series. Of the 2007 season, both SVA Imports and Sumo Power 350Z currently competes in the EDC (European Drift Championship), which is run by a different organization to D1, and in Formula D, Foust took runner up spot at round 1 and at round 2, Chris Forsberg would score its maiden victory in his Roadster equipped with a VK56DE from a Nissan Titan. His win for the 350Z was followed up by Youichi Imamura's win during the Las Vegas round of the US D1GP series in his RB26DETT engined car. Foust would eventually take the Formula D title.

The SVA Imports Z33 is significant for being the other drifting car other than the Team Orange Impreza to feature a rear radiators with air ventilation on both sides rather than just on one on the Impreza.

pontiac g6 cars review

pontiac g6
pontiac g6

The 2008 Pontiac G6 Coupe is available only in GT and GXP trims, with two different V-6 engines—a 219-horsepower, 3.5-liter or a new-for-2008 252-horsepower, 3.6-liter in the GXP. The two engines carry similar fuel economy estimates of 17 mpg city, 26 highway; the more efficient four-cylinder engine that’s offered in the sedan isn’t available in the coupe.

The two engines in the 2008 Pontiac G6 Coupe both have strong acceleration, but have quite different personalities. The 3.5-liter follows an old pushrod design and is equipped with a four-speed automatic transmission. It’s responsive but the engine can be coarse and loud. The 3.6-liter is a more modern overhead-cam design and is tuned such that it has especially strong passing power. The difference is that the 3.5-liter comes with a four-speed automatic while the 3.6-liter comes with a new six-speed automatic.
The 2008 Pontiac G6 Coupe drives quite well, but the experience is unremarkable. While the Coupe doesn’t have the electric power steering that was formerly offered—rather, a better hydraulic system—the G6 still doesn’t steer or handle as well as other cars in its class. The ride is quite firm and can be choppy on pockmarked pavement, with no apparent handling advantage.

The car’s interior has an attractive design, but the quality of the materials is not upto the mark, with too many glossy or hard plastics that look like they might scratch easily. Seating is ample in the 2008 Pontiac G6 Coupe; the nice front seats are both soft and supportive.

The base GT coupe comes with a keyless entry, cruise control, air conditioning, and a CD sound system with XM satellite radio. GXP models upgrade to the bigger engine and six-speed automatic, bigger wheels and tires, heated seats, and automatic climate control, plus various appearance enhancements throughout. Other options on the 2008 Pontiac G6 Coupe include a remote starter system, power-adjustable pedals, and a sunroof.

We have to admit that we really enjoy a good car industry rumour at CARupdate, especially when it involves Australia in some way. Overnight, the internet was a-buzz with the latest rumour concerning the Pontiac G6.

To get this in perspective GM in North America produce the Pontiac G6 which is the little brother to the Pontiac G8. Now we all know that the current Pontiac G8 is soon to replaced by a rebadged LHD version of our Holden VE Commodore SS-V. That’s old news.

The new news is that the next generation Pontiac G6 will be arriving a little earlier than expected in late 2010 and will be based on GM’s Alpha mid-size rear-wheel drive platform. The only car currently believed to have been based on that architecture was the Holden Torana concept (pictured) first seen in 2004.

While many of GM’s current FWD models will remain FWD it is rumoured that there will be a number of RWD Alpha based new models to appear after the G6, including the Cadillac BLS and a new RWD Saturn model to sell alongside the FWD Aura.

The big speculation is that we should be expecting a similar Holden model in Australia that will be mid-sized and based on the Alpha RWD platform. Could the next Pontiac G6 be a re-hash of the 2004 Torana? Could Australia see the Holden Torana badge on the streets once again?

Kinda makes sense when you consider that Holden is now considered the RWD platform development centre for GM worldwide, the Torana has already been shown as a concept and Holden would probably give their left you know what for a mid-size sedan in this time of high fuel prices and a trend to smaller cars.


Only a month or so ago Bob Lutz had announced that GM were considering putting on hold their rear-wheel-drive architecture development across the GM empire. Now RWD appears to be the flavour of the month and Australia’s Holden may just be the big winner. Of course it may all just be unsubstantiated rumour…

The Ford GT, referred to by ‘Top Gear’ as the GT 40 of the 21st Century. It is a sleek, elegant, supercharged marvel. This Supercar can spit out 550 horsepower from its mid-mounted supercharged 5.4L V8 engine. It can also produce 500 foot-pounds of force. It weighs 1.5 tonnes and has a 6 speed manual transmission.

In 1995, at the Detroit Auto Show, the Ford GT90 idea was presented and in 2002, at the same show, the new GT40 concept was unveiled. The new Ford GT was similar in the external appearance, only slightly bigger and wider and 3 inches taller. As a result of which, a potential name was the GT43. Although the 2 cars are similar visually, structually they are completely different.

All in all, a pretty good car, in my opinion.
