Well, Nissan designers have done it again. How do you make a 370z coupe even more fun? Make it a convertible.

Coming in at a very affordable $29,930 (base model) price will make this a very popular purchase for Nissan lovers around the world this summer when it rolls onto dealerships.
The 2010 Nissan 370z is not simply the old “boxy” style coupe without the top, however. The entire care itself has been redesigned for a sleeker, smoother ride and a lot of little features that add up to a great new car are included. Nissan has made many key changes to the car’s chassis to ensure that it remains one of the best sports cars on the road for today’s consumers. Body structure has been reinforced to reduce torsional bending common in most convertibles. Toyota Corolla for sale. While cornering the driver is kept comfortable by side supports. The convertible soft-top itself can be raised or lowered in only 20 seconds by using a special trigger located on the door handles, a unique feature not seen in any other model today. This means both the driver and the passenger (could be driver and pet) can convert the soft top while the car is moving.
As for vehicle performance, this new model has a powerful but not over the top 3.Seven liter v6 unit that unfortunately accelerates the car in 8.0 seconds acceleration from 0 to 62. However, it makes up for this rate with a fantastic top racing speed of 175 mph. Now how’s that for getting some wind in your face?

Convertibles: What to Do When it Rains With the Top Down
For this story to make sense, you need to know that my employer sells adult diapers. So it’s not surprising that I have a few packs of these in my house. I almost always have a pack or two in my car too, because the company donates supplies to local medical clinics and homeless shelters and it is my job to do the deliveries. Now here’s my story:
My father owns a beautifully restored 1969 Chevrolet Camaro convertible and he loves it more than life itself. Somehow, a few weeks ago, my kid brother was able to talk our father into loaning him that muscle car icon for a Sunday afternoon. My little brother picked up his girlfriend and came over to our home and we all piled into our minivan for a local excursion. Unfortunately my kid brother left the top down on the Camaro and – you guessed it – while we were gone it rained a torrent. We returned to find the floor of the vehicle submerged in over 4 inches of water. Right about then my Dad called to say that he was coming over for dinner and that he would be arriving in ten minutes.
My brother had already started bailing water with a miniature pink pail that my daughter had loaned him from her toy box when I suddenly realized that I had the perfect answer – adult diapers! I quickly pulled a pack from my own vehicle and we all tore into it, submerging the absorbent material into the water. Even though it was my idea, I was astonished at how effective this was. I had read about the absorbent polymers that are in diapers, but to see it in action is simply eye-popping. Eight diapers soaked up all that water in about 40 seconds. I used a couple more diapers to get as much liquid out of the carpets as I could while others used paper towels to get little drops here and there. Hair dryers finished up and were just being unplugged when Dad was spotted coming down the street in his old pickup truck. He still does not know about this incident.
So if you own a convertible, keep your top up when traveling through southern states. And if you want to prepare for the worst that can happen, keep a few adult diapers tucked away in the trunk or luggage compartment. If your wife or girlfriend finds these panties in your car, you’ll have a good story to tell.

The revised Aston Martin DBS.
No so many sports cars can boast about being visibly beautiful. The DBS is definately an elegant car to be seen driving.Very sleek lines and a lowered height make this car look lovely at the same time powerful like a sports car should be.
The 2009 DBS better be pretty though, because it will set prospective buyers back between two hundred and seventy and three hundred thousand dollars, but just as with any Aston Martin, there is more to this car than just a pretty face…
Beneath the hood of this beautiful specimen sits one powerhouse of an engine – a 5.9 liter V12, churning a whooping 510hp to move the car just past the 190mph top speed.Acceleration for the DBS is an elegant 4.3 seconds.
The DBS’s initial launch into the automotive world was just eighteen short months ago, its beauty and performance took the driving world by storm then and Aston Martin hasn’t changed a whole lot since the original – they didn’t have to.
New for the second incarnation are the diamond turned wheels which, aside from being absolutely stunning, manage to take an impressive four and a half pounds of weight off per wheel – that coupled with a portion of the body being made from carbon make this version almost two hundred pounds lighter than the DB9 which it is partially patterned after.
The 2009 version also has an option for two rear bucket seats where the original just had a modest amount of storage behind the front seats. Which ever way Ashton Martin wanted to refine this car, in all honesty it is okay. Lets keep in mind this is not a mom’s taxi.
For drivers, like myself, who would rather be immersed in their favorite music than hearing the roar of the massive 510 horsepower V12 engine rumbling beneath the hood, the 2009 DBS comes with an absolutely out of this world sound system – a ten speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system that is truly capable of making ears bleed should you have the desire.
The 2009 DBS still uses the space age form of entry that every one fell in love with from the original – the ECU or “Emotion Control Unit” in lieu of using the more traditional keyed form or automobile entry.
If you have more than a quarter of a million dollars to spend on your next vehicle and are still having doubts about the Aston Martin DBS, ask yourself this – if it was good enough for James Bond to use (and destroy) not once, but twice how could it not be good enough for you.

V10 Audi R8. The one to have
This R8 will surely cause controversy with the sister Lambo Gallardo as it moves Audi straight into the must have sports cars league.
The Audi team has really stepped up the latest version of their R8 to be viable competition with the other big boys on the circuit. The 2010 model is super powerful – five hundred and twenty-five horsepower powerful, but is still quiet and controllable enough to actually be used on a regular basis unlike some of the Italian super-cars.
This ultra powerful version of the R8 is capable of flying from zero to sixty mph in less than four seconds, but what makes it an even better alternative to the Porches, Lamborghinis and Ferraris of the world is that the power it brings is so nicely complemented by the incredible handling that you experience behind the wheel.
How Much?
The price tag on the 2010 Audi R8 has jumped almost as much as the quality of the car and at nearly one hundred and fifty thousand dollars the price is another close point of comparison between the new R8 and the Porsche 911.R8 V10 has now the power punch to challenge the legendary 911, F430 and Gallardo. Of course at one hundred and fifty thousand it is far from practical for even the wealthy, but this car is by far the most practical of any of the super-cars. R8′s main attraction is the V10 engine which means those who liked the V8, will finally have their wish of the R8 unleashed.
The Look
As should be expected from a car with such a lofty price tag, the 2010 Audi R8 is beautiful both inside and out.The original R8 was fortunate enough to win car of the year in some countries due to its fresh looks. This time around Audi has beefed up the model.Truth be told, there is very little to tell apart the V10 R8 from the original one. Not a bad thing as the cars is great looking inside and outside.
The 2010 Audi R8 is most likely the only one of the super-cars that has enough space to stow enough luggage for a week long holiday with nearly seven cubic feet of storage available, and the space that is occupied is loaded with features you’d be hard pressed to find in a car with a smaller price tag.
There are any number of options in order to accessorize or customize the new R8, but in reality you don’t really need any of them – the stock model comes complete with heated seats, a GPS navigation system, an incredible sound system, automatic air and a built in alarm.
The 2010 R8 is off the charts when it comes to power, handling and performance but it also gets incredibly high marks in both safety and design further cementing its place at the top of the list for anyone who wants to own a super-car but has needs for an automobile that can be driven every day.

The Attractiveness of Sports Cars
Sports cars are performance vehicles that provide driving satisfaction. They allow a person to engage in the absolute driving experience and be in touch directly with the motorway, as diametrically as possible.
In the automobile industry where economy vehicles, “family sedans” and SUV’s dominate the field, sports cars definitely stand out.
These types of cars, for the able and skilled drivers, can give maximum performance on the road. Not all drivers are equally skilled, but to individuals who are capable of feeling and understanding the faint messages of these vehicles, they can indulge in a rewarding and satisfying driving experience since sports cars are intended to be driven fairly fast.
Because of this driving pleasure, many people are attracted to a sports car. This is just one of the many reasons why people like these vehicles. Other reasons include:
1. Appearance. The aerodynamic design of a sports car makes it attractive to car lovers. Although when you are making an automotive investment, this should not be the only reason to purchase that vehicle. Functionality should be the base consideration even though style will also enter into your decision.
2. Driving features. While other vehicles are mainly designed for affordability and function, sports cars emphasise on performance. The trait and condition of driving a sports car is an experience unmatched.
Keeping in mind their very discriminating car drivers, sports cars easily out perform the road execution of other automobiles. Drivers can accelerate with ease when required, hug turns, and have a certain driving management not provided by most vehicles.
3. Fun and excitement. The driving qualities of a sports car can provide excitement and fun.
One can spend hours talking about pleasurable experiences such as curve hugging while not taking one’s foot off the accelerator or zooming past slow moving traffic yet remaining in full control or talk about the feeling of gratification , and knowing that one is driving a car with superb engineering.
4. Duration and resale value. Each new vehicle depreciates the very second it is driven. However, sports cars will become more valuable as time passes, because of their above-mentioned qualities and are expected to become potential classics that will retain their value.
One does not need to make their car choice a statement, although if one chooses, the opportunity is right there. Owning a sports vehicle will make a statement about the owner’s personality.

What to Consider When Styling Sports Cars
Are you planning to improve the aesthetic appearance of your car? Want to get that sporty look? Then here are some tips to help you style your car.
What products to consider from
When considering what options of setup you will do to your car, you should first keep in mind that there are a many different parts being sold out there which claim superior performance and economical. But the reality is there are some good ones and many of bad ones. Be choosy when looking for car accessories and remember it is not a bad idea to look at the branded products before considering untested brands.
The wheels
One of the initial things that a car enthusiast does when dressing up a car is to replace the existing wheels with custom made ones. But this is not just for looks since performance wheels and tires also enhance a car’s handling and performance. Choosing between tall wheels and short ones will be the next step. Larger wheels get noticed more and improve the look of a car dramatically. Smaller wheels on the other hand have that vintage or retro look.
Stickers Designs
Applying sticker designs on the car hood or the other parts of the car body is one of the cheapest ways to alter the look of your car. Sticker designs range from famous logos of performance parts manufacturers as well as those designed for rally and indy races. If you are capable of making your own stickers, it is important to get permission for copying a design as it may be copyrighted. If you are planning to put stickers on the bonnet, choose the kind that will not be damaged by the heat of the engine. Metallic foil stickers are ideal for car hoods.
Lowering Suspension
Lowering your car means making your car more stable in turns aside from giving it an aggressive and sporty look. Cars are not the only ones that have lowering kits, so if you have a pickup truck, chances are, there is a lowering kit made for your vehicle. Although having a lowered car means improved handling, the downside is poorer ride quality since the car springs are stiffer and shorter.
These are some of the things that you can do to improve the look and stance of your sports car. Your car is a represents you so naturally you want it to look appealing. Of course, having a good looking car also means spending some serious cash. If this is your passion, then paying a little more should not be a problem with you.
