Brand new Mercedes-Benz AMG C63 S

Brabus, one of the most famous tuners when it comes to Mercedes-Benz cars, decided to extract even more horsepower from the 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo that come with the AMG C63 S. To achieve this, they have switch to the B40-600 PowerXtra power kit that allows the car to generate the extra 88 hp, thus the total power of this coupé is a whopping 591 hp. Additionally, the torque has increased by 73 pound-feet of torque to reach an earth shattering 590 ft-lbs. With this big change in the heart of the C63 AMG S, stepping on the throttle pedal will take you from 0-100 km / h in 3.8 seconds,  achieving a top speed of 300 km / h while at it. In addition to these mechanical changes, Brabus also worked on the body of the C63 in order to substantially improve aerodynamics.  If one looks at the list of new component highlights, the redesign of the front fascia with larger air inlets, a splitter, a diffuser and a rear spoiler carbon fiber immediately pop to grab your attention,

Mustang History

Have you ever wondered how was the Mustang created? Well... Check this out!  The  Ford Mustang  is an American  automobile  manufactured by the  Ford Motor Company . It was originally based on the  platform  of the second generation North American  Ford Falcon , a compact car . The original  Ford Mustang I  four-seater concept car had evolved into the 1963 Mustang II two-seater prototype, which Ford used to pretest how the public would take interest in the first production Mustang which was released as the 1964 1/2, with a slight variation on the frontend and a top that was 2.7 inches shorter than the 1963 Mustang II. First generation (1964–1973) As Lee Iacocca's assistant general manager and chief engineer, Donald N. Frey was the head engineer for the T-5 project—supervising the overall development of the car in a record 18 months [21] —while Iacocca himself championed the project as Ford Division general manager. The T-5 prototype was a two-seat, mid-mounted engine ro

HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. -- If you see a Chevrolet Corvair cruising around this beach town, there's a good chance you'll find Bill Stephens behind the wheel. "I've had 23 Corvair cars and vans," says Stephens, as he showed off his sunshine-yellow 1962 Corvair pickup."I've been a Corvair freak for a long time." It's easy to see why when you take a close look at the Corvair Rampside that he brought to a weekly car show here. Not only is it unique because it's a truck-style version of the controversial Corvair, but also because of its unique feature: a ramp that folds out from the side off the truck. It was a practical feature for its time. The Rampside has almost the same engine sound as the regular Corvair. Altogether, it's a vehicle that feels a little bit space age. Of course, back in its heyday, the Corvair hardly could have seemed hip. Consumer crusader Ralph Nader took on General Motors over safety isssues surrounding the rea

Vehicle Transportation Taxes in Canada

Vehicle auto transport is a business that most of the times has customers all across the country. That situation may be confusing when it comes to the pricing of the service. Canada's taxing system has a different tax percentage in every province and territory. Customers may wonder, which tax will apply to my purchase when I ship my car? Auto transport is not a service that you purchase and receive in the same place, so it can cover one, two, or more provinces on every trip. When shipping your vehicle the taxing that applies is the delivery province taxing system. The reason for this is that the car shipping service is not complete until the vehicle is delivered.
