The Fastest Car - SSC Aero


The car season would boost up soon with the SSC Ultimate Aero- “a car without equal”. After seven years of long wait, SSC is finally ready to introduce its Ultimate Aero, which would set a benchmark for supercars today.

The exclusive first photos of the SSC Ultimate Aero II is the second generation of America’s fastest supercar. The purpose of this ultimate car is to look good and reclaim the title of world’s fastest production car from the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport.

Achieving tremendous power via its twin turbo V-8 engine, the SSC Ultimate Aero II produces 1,183 horsepower and 1094 ft.-lbs. of torque making it the world’s most powerful production car.

Combining this proprietary power plant with a lightweight, aerodynamic body and the best handling systems available SSC delivers a vehicle that not only eclipses all other cars but stands officially as the “World’s Fastest Production Car”.

Simply put, there is no other production car that can match the performance of the Ultimate Aero.

Unleashing Honda Odeyssey 2011


Honda refurbished last-year’s top-selling minivan in the U.S., the Odyssey, to compete with Toyota Motor Corp.’s Sienna and lure younger drivers from “crossover” light trucks that have eroded the segment’s sales.

The 2011 Odyssey goes on sale Sept. 30 with a new look and a base price of $27,800, or $1,000 more than the current version.

“This stigma attached to the minivan as being boxy and not as appealing from a styling standpoint, we tried to address that,” Catalin Matei, Honda’s senior designer for the Odyssey, said in an interview in La Jolla, California. “We kept the functionality and increased interior volume. The appearance is lower, wider, more sporty.”

Fuel economy for the V-6 engine Odyssey improved to a combined 21 miles per gallon in city and highway driving for LX and EX grades, from 18 mpg previously, Honda said. Fuel economy for the Odyssey Touring grade, a high-end version that starts at $40,755, improved to a combined 22 mpg from 20 mpg, aided by the use of a 6-speed automatic transmission.

Aston Martin 2010


The all new 2010 Aston Martin Vantage grabs good grades when put to test by auto- experts. The model has been improved for better and is a lesson in automotive accomplishment. In fact, few exotic sports cars come close to matching the 2010 Aston Martin Vantage’s unique balance of distinguished handling, drop-dead gorgeous looks and everyday practicality.

Let’s find out what the best auto blogs have to comment on this new car:

Consumer Guide: The 2010 Aston Martin Vantage combines aesthetic perfection with superior performance engineering. It may not be the fastest or most powerful exotic sports car, but it’s a superb handler and a wonderful piece of art to behold. “Those who think a Bentley Continental too mundane and a Lamborghini Gallardo too ostentatious might find the Aston Martin Vantage an ideal choice.”

Automobile Magazine: “Besides its exclusivity, the Aston Martin V8 Vantage roadster offers precise handling dynamics that make you feel like a hero when you’re carving through mountain roads, luxury accommodations that allow you to drive in a relaxed and confident manner through busy traffic, and a sensuous shape that begs you to caress its tapering flanks.”
