2012 Dodge Charger SRT8

Ohhhhhhh man. Beast mode. This car is amazing. I love old muscle cars made new and its nice to see that Dodge is still making General Lee look awesome. The car itself looks like an animal that commands the throne of the jungle. And of course this is the SRT8 version of it, so it's like ten times as awesome. This bad boy has a 6.4 liter V8 with 470 hp and 470 ft-lb of torque. Holy Moley. That is a crap ton of power for stock. Plus its got new fuel saver technology so it has so much power and still gets great gas mileage. It gets 14 mpg in the city and 23 on the highway. That's better than my dad's work truck with a small V6 in it. It amazing what the new technology can do these days. Sure you have to pay at first to get the car, but eventually it'll pay for itself with all the money you save on gas. And you still get to cruise around looking like the baddest guy in town. You also get to cruise around in luxury with the heated red leather and suede seats that have a race look to them. With all this power, how fast is it? Oh its fast. It goes 0-60 in less than five seconds, and tops out at 175 miles per hour. A quarter mile is less than 13 seconds. Which is awesome given that you have to give up nothing to get that much power. Still have have comfort, air conditioning, a nineteen speaker sound system in it, and a touchscreen display on the dash. It also has amazing handling thanks to the independent suspension for the front and the rear end suspension. It also has different modes to suit the kind of driving you feel like doing, either sport or auto. And if you get going to fast you don't have to worry because its got four wheel disc brakes from Brembo, and performance tires to go with that. The only thing that is bad about this car is the price. It does dig into your wallet a bit but I'd say that all this make up for it. Base price for this car is $47,425.

Folding Bike for Couriers

The main goal of this "Folding Bike for Couriers" project was to design a useful, capacious, and compact mechanical means of transportation for couriers who work in a printing house. We're not sure why it's meant only for couriers of a printing house since it looks really handy for anyone who needs to deliver a package using a bike. Using this bike, you can place leaflets package or other polygraphy production in the plastic box and place it inside this bike's compartment. For long distance travel where you have to use public transport, simply fold your bike and use it as a trolley. This fold bike features titanium frame while the compartment is made of ABS plastic.

Audi Bike Concept

Vladimer Kobakhidze, a 29-year old Georgian car designer has sent us his Audi bike concept, a premium transportation for urban traffic to reduce pollution. Please don't get confused by the name, it's not an official concept from Audi, but clearly it was inspired by the famous Audi brand design philosophy.

In this fast growing population, the reloaded urban traffic and the polluted environment needs a sustainable, flexible, safe and comfortable bicycle device. It is a difficult task to find out the real innovation in this, in the bicycle design segment. The goal is pretty straight forward, design a family bicycle for "Audi" based on the general design and philosophy of this German automotive company from rationality, visibility and quality. It has to meet the principle of modern sportiveness for premium consumers.

The "Audi Bike" Design project combines the new family of the bicycles: The "Audi" Sports bike, the Folding bike and the electronic + (HP) humane powered Bike. All of them feature fluent lines, more surface transitions and sporty look with emotional appearance.

The "Audi Bike" Sports bike
The "Audi Bike" Sports bike represents a premium class bicycle segment. The dynamic body frame made by solid and lightweight material (like carbon fiber or aluminum) combines the Seat post construction and the Chain ring mechanism. The innovative bicycle body design language contains the functional and safety features. The seat post construction can be regulated by the user with a simple and convenient convertible, transformable option, also the saddle can be regulated in a high ergonomic level.

The Chain ring mechanism is a simplified by the safe covering system, which makes the Chain ring device convenient and safe in use, the design language of a new Chain ring represents a new technical solution of a modern bicycle Chain ring. In general the "Audi Bike" design language represents the new design ideology, to minimize the old fashioned technical, conservative construction approach and maximize the functional, safety and aesthetics features.

The "Audi Bike" Folding bike
The "Audi Bike" Folding bike represents a urban transportation segment. The general design language follows to the new "Audi Bike" family design direction, with a rational and sportivenes, dynamic body language. The folding bike design face has been reworked to be more urban oriented. To the global rising urban traffic, the foldable option can be used in a efficient and useful way. The bike lightweight body and convenient proportions make it easily to be placed inside the car's trunk. It can be connected with a global city network using a new smart phone or GPS mobile device system, offering to the consumer a live city map, the free parking zone and urban traffic map.

2013 Bentley Continental GT

The 2013 Bentley Continental GT. One of the most luxurious cars to ever hit the road. This V8 model is a newer model of the 2012 GT which is a 12-cylinder, so this has a little less power and the price is also lower. The engine is tuned to produce 500 hp at 6000 rpm and 487 lb-ft of torque at 5000 rpm. It will send power through an eight-speed automatic transmission to its all wheel drive drive-train system. The power numbers aren�t all that far from the 567 hp and 516 lb-ft produced by the twin turbo 6.0-liter engine currently in the Continental, and neither is Bentley's prediction of a close five second 0 to 60 mph and a top speed over 180 mph. They're also saying that this model will be a good deal lighter, which also will help improve fuel economy, and also they're adding the new cylinder deactivation system that turns four out of the eight cylinders off when it's carrying light loads. Since this model still produces almost as much at the 12-cylinder model, it might end up being the preferred model to race or to drive on test courses since it is a lot lighter. I love the looks of this car. Somehow Bentley was about to put a great amount of class and still have a fast look to it also. And then they add all this power, it just makes the ultimate luxury car. The cost for this car is around $185,000.
