Luxury Cars Blog

We all know that Ford has switched and changed their gears quite a bit and now – now they are spicing up a lot of their cars – the 2011 Ford Mustang GT included.  This particular car is actually something that I look forward to seeing and I can tell you for sure that the 2011 Ford Mustang GT is going to be incredible.

Not only do they have some awesome specs that all come standard with it but I can tell you for sure that the base model – still awesome is press inexpensive.  Just coming in under twenty-two hundred dollars makes the brand new 2011 Ford Mustang GT worth it.

If you have been looking forward to the 2011 Ford Mustang GT – you need to make sure that you check it out, it’s pretty awesome – and they’re a perfect example of the return of the pony car!

You want to talk luxury cars? Okay, my friends and fellow car enthusiasts, then we are going to talk luxury cars.

Specifically, we are going to talk about luxury from a very surprising, very unexpected — by me, at least — source: Mazda.

You cannot take even the shortest glimpse at the concept for the Mazda Furai without admitting that this car is definitely luxurious. It just screams richness with the way it looks. It is an interpretation on the Nagare design, an award winning aesthetic named after a Japanese term known to mean “the embodiment of motion,” as well as “flow.”

Both terms most definitely apply to the Furai concept. This low slung beauty looks both powerful and high class, the kind of thing you expect to see in the next James Bond film.

Not just a luxury car, but also one of the true exotics in the car game today: the Lamborghini Gallardo. From now on, Poker Goddess Vanessa Rousso will be seen around Las Vegas driving around in this yellow puppy – looking like the sexy poker star she is.

How do you think she looks?

Va va voom, my friends! Ferrari finally revealed its very newest one off. What’s it called? A veritable mouthful: the Ferrari P540 Superfast Aperta. Pininfarina designed the car for a client from the United States. It is based around the fabulous 599 GTB Fiorano and it is the second brand new vehicle created as part of Ferrari’s Special Projects program.

The car was inspired by a Ferrari designed by Carrozzeria Fantuzzi that was actually built for one of Fellini’s films — Toby Dammit, a 1968 film. Edward Walson owned the car, and last year he approached the Italian automaker to create a more modern version of the film’s golden car.

The result is the stunner you see before you. Vroom vroom!

I did not think that it was possible – that you could ever transform something as beautiful as a Porsche car into … this.  Now, if you don’t know the story, you are probably wondering exactly what ‘this’ is.  Well, a Dutch car dealership decided to celebrate Sinterklaas – a holiday inspired by Santa Claus.  The holiday is usually held in The Netherlands on the evening of December 5th and it is by far the best holiday.

People go all out, just like we do for Christmas and so that is why this particular dealership decided to cover up the Porsche in Centrum Gelderland’s Choco997.  They are using about 175 kilos of chocolate, which equals out to be about 385 pounds.

The dipper Porsche is going to stay on display until Christmas and then – it will be taken apart and hopefully eaten!

The Frankfurt Auto Show is almost here. We have the latest news for some upcoming sedans that will grace the occasion:

Rapide from Aston Martin

We have heard a lot about the car and it is time for the Rapide from Aston Martin to say hello to the world. It will be a head turner when the crowd sees its lines. It will be exciting to see how the doors on swan-wing configuration fit in the design. The 470 horsepower engine will be stunner.

5-Series GT of BMW

The Gran Turismo 5 Series from BMW promises a ride with bigger room for its occupants aside from the sexy rounded roofline it has. It will be running on a V8 with twin-turbo engine capable of giving out 400 horsepower. The powertrain is combined with an 8-speed automatic transmission. The car blazes from 0 to 60 in 5.4 seconds going for a top speed of 150 mph with a sport variant.

The Ghost by Rolls-Royce

Rolls Royce claims that the Ghost can meet head on any Bentley Continental anytime. It will carry the looks of the concept car 200EX that you can see on the Rolls-Royce website. Those who can afford it has an option for a V8 or a V12 engine. There is also an option to go for a coupe or a convertible ride.

Do you remember back in ’03 when Kia … the best brand out there introduced the brand new Sorento?  Well, now they are coming up with something unique and something different for the 2011 Kia Sorento, this is definitely an SUV that is unique and different … and one that I have fallen head over friggin’ heels for.  At the time the Sorento was released, the world was overtaken by SUV’s, but right now – they are reworking the 2011 Kia Sorento.

The body-frame is a little different and it is honestly a four-wheel drive car that you can count on, which is nice.  The body to me is something that needed to be reworked and now that the 2011 Kia Sorento has been reworked, I think that it is certainly going to soar to the top.

Want luxury and a good price – the 2011 Kia Sorento is the SUV for you, I can promise you that!

When you have a luxury car – what is the first thing that you usually want to do to protect it?  For me, it is all about the car insurance and what it can do to not only cover the car but the people in the car.  Luxury cars, while awesome, still need to have car insurance on them and do you know what is covered right now on your car insurance policy?

Well I do, I know that I have Liability Coverage – and that is pretty much all I need to know.  This particular coverage is actually going to offer protection to you if you injure or damage someone else or their property with your car.  As far as your own personal asset grow, it is actually really critical that you consider getting Liability Coverage.

That way, you can make sure that you cover your own personal items and that everything in your car is covered too.

Oh. My. God.

What a car, what a car, what a car. What is this car? Just the Zagato Perana Z-One, just that. If you are anything like me, you might have first mistaken it for a Porsche, but nope.

This is the commemoration of Zagato’s 90th anniversary, and it is certainly worthy of such a big celebration.

Thus far it is just a concept, but luxury auto lovers can just hope and pray that the Perana Z-One makes it into production, because mmm, this car is absolutely delicious.

It got its debut at this year’s motor show in Geneva, an unveiling that revealed a sleek, powerful concept with large air intakes, a gaping, oval shaped grille, large headlamps, and a pronounced, powerful, and elegant profile.

When you think about it – what is a luxury car?  Well, I have to say that the Bugatti 16C Galibier concept car is the best luxury car in the world.  This concept car … if it goes through mind you is going to be one of the best, best, best cars on the market.  The concept revealed a two-door car, mid-engine Veyron that is going to be much more conventional than a four-door, front-engine body style.

Now, you want to know about the specs on the Bugatti 16C Galibier?  Well,  according to autoblog.com: the the 8.0-liter quad-turbo W16 engine would carry over, albeit detuned from its 1000+ hp output in the Veyron to “only” 800, while sources suggest that the Veyron’s purpose-built dual-clutch transmission would be replaced with a more conventional torque-converter eight-speed automatic.

With less power and a larger shape, the Galibier 16C is tipped to reach a 220 mph top speed – a good thirty less than the Veyron’s top end, but still miles ahead of even the fastest production sedans.

Sounds fantastic right?
