2012 Brabus Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG front
Despite the wheels' bigger size they deliver a weight reduction of up to 12 percent compared to the SLS production wheels. The reduced unsprung weight further results in even more agile handling. Brabus technology partners Pirelli and Yokohama supply the optimal high-performance tires in sizes 275/30 ZR 20 and 295/25 ZR 21.

The wide version is rounded out by aerodynamic-enhancement components developed in the wind tunnel. All Brabus aerodynamic-enhancement components are made from carbon fibers and are available with a matte or glossy clear-coated finish for a true racing look. Optionally these components can be painted in body or contrasting color.

To further reduce lift on front and rear axle Brabus equips the SLS with a front spoiler for the production front fascia, a rear spoiler and a rear diffuser. Together these components create an even better aerodynamic balance. Two Brabus covers for the upper air dams of the bumper and side air outlets for the rear fascia are further visual details of the Brabus Widestar version.

The work of the Brabus designers also gives the sides of the gullwing more profile and further improved aerodynamic efficiency. The rocker panels were sculpted to optimize the airflow between front and rear axle and to create a perfect transition to the Widestar components on the rear axle. Integrated entrance lights ensure safe entering and exiting of the vehicle in the dark.

The Brabus air outlets for the front fenders add more of sporty touches. At night they draw attention with their integrated blue-illuminated Brabus logos that are activated via the keyless fob or by pulling on a door handle.

The ride-height lowering by up to 30 millimeters (1.2 inches) also plays an important role in the striking appearance of the Brabus-modified SLS. The Brabus suspension is height-adjustable and was developed in cooperation with technology partner Bilstein. At the push of a button its integrated Ride Control function also offers a smoother ride than the production car. From the cockpit the driver can at any time - even while driving - switch between damper settings that offer a more comfortable or a sportier ride than the production car.

For sporty-minded SLS owners Brabus offers stiffer sway bars for front and rear axle that reduce body roll for even more precise handling.

The Brabus high-performance exhaust system with four slanted exhaust tips with diameters of 84 millimeters (3.3 inches) is somewhat atypical for traditional tuning. Its sound management, controlled by the driver and activated by a pneumatic flap, includes a 'coming home' setting that is quieter than the production exhaust. In 'sport' mode the 6.3-liter eight-cylinder engine produces an even more powerful exhaust note than with the production exhaust. The Brabus exhaust system is manufactured from extremely lightweight titanium and weighs 12 kilograms (26 lbs.) or 40 percent less than the production exhaust. Another welcome by-product of this exhaust is an increase in power output by 10 hp / 7.4 kW.

Brabus offers a multitude of exclusive custom interior options for the two-seater car as well. Carbon-fiber inlays in any desired color and matte anodized aluminum pedals and foot rest add sporty highlights.

The ergonomically shaped sport steering wheel is made from a combination of leather and Alcantara and provides especially good grip for further improved road feedback. The speedometer with 400 km/h scale (250 mph) already hints at the car's future performance with Brabus engine tuning.

The Brabus upholstery shop offers a sheer endless multitude of colors and designs for the masterfully crafted SLS interiors made from the finest leathers and Alcantara. These interiors can be custom-tailored to suit each SLS owner's personal taste down to the last detail.

2011 BMW Z4

Characteristic engine sound accompanying the dynamic surge of power.

The modified six-cylinder also comes with special features on the engine block itself in the interest of even greater strength and stiffness. The exhaust system of the BMW Z4 sDrive35is, in turn, has been developed specifically for this model, appropriate sound engineering giving the car a very characteristic and truly impressive sound pattern.

This particular distinction tailored to the BMW Z4 sDrive35is is ensured by special sound flaps and modifications on the silencers. The driver and passenger therefore experience powerful acoustic feedback to their wish for performance, without the sound of the engine becoming obtrusive, let alone annoying, at any time. So the sound experience is characterised by a particularly deep rumble with the focus above all on the low frequency range.

Seven-speed Sport Automatic with a special control map and an optimised two-mass flywheel.

The seven-speed Sport Automatic with double clutch operation featured in the BMW Z4 sDrive35is likewise offers the very best in driving dynamics and efficiency. A particular highlight in this case is the two-mass flywheel laid out particularly for an even higher level of power and performance, offering even greater strength and stability and naturally handling high engine torque of up to 500 Newton-metres or 369 lb-ft without the slightest problem.

The seven-speed Sport Automatic with double clutch operation shifts gears without the slightest interruption of torque and engine power, offering the driver the choice of an automatic gearshift or the manual selection of gears. The fast and particularly smooth change of gears ensures unusually harmonious acceleration and serves in addition to reduce both fuel consumption and emissions.

The control map on the seven-speed Sport Automatic transmission with double clutch has naturally been tailored to the particular power and performance of the engine, thus further enhancing the superior sportiness of the BMW Z4 sDrive35is to an even higher level. Particularly when shifting gears manually and in conjunction with the SPORT and SPORT+ modes of Dynamic Driving Control, the transmission offers a most dynamic experience through modified gearshift points, optimised selection of gears and an even greater increase in torque before shifting.

Sport Automatic also comes with a Launch Control function for maximum performance when accelerating from a standstill.

The Sport Automatic transmission is controlled and masterminded by an electronic gear selector on the centre console and comes with gearshift paddles on the steering wheel.

Featured as standard on the BMW Z4 sDrive35is: M Sports Package and adaptive M Suspension.

The BMW Z4 sDrive35is also comes as standard with an M Sports Package including the M Aerodynamics Package and adaptive M Suspension featuring electronically controlled dampers for even greater agility without making any concessions in terms of comfort. The M Sports Package underlines the dynamic character of the car through its aerodynamically optimised exterior features and customised interior design. Special 18-inch light-alloy rims in five-spoke design combined with tyres of different size front and rear round off the sporting character of the BMW Z4 sDrive35is, with 19-inch light-alloy rims available an option.

The adaptive M Suspension lowers the entire car by 10 millimetres or almost 0.4", ensuring a quick reaction to sudden steering manoeuvres and superior precision when entering a bend thanks to four continuously adjustable twin-sleeve gas-pressure dampers with interacting adjustment of the inbound and rebound strokes. The central control unit processing data delivered by three accelerometers and adjusting the four dampers independently of one another enables the suspension to respond very quickly to even the slightest change in driving and road conditions. Damper harshness, in turn, is adjusted by externally fitted valves controlling the flow of damper fluid, giving the dampers either a harder or softer set-up in accordance with current conditions and driving requirements. Reaction time of the system is extremely short, with the rear dampers being adjusted immediately as soon as the front wheels run over a hole or bump in the road.

Electric Power Steering on the BMW Z4 sDrive35is features a particularly sporting and dynamic control map, with the focus on intense and clear feedback to the driver through the dosage of power assistance provided by the electric motor. Again, this enables the driver to enter bends with extreme precision at all engine speeds in the interest of enhanced performance.

M Sports Package offering a most direct experience of the car's dynamic potential - and available as an option also on the other models in the range.

The exterior and interior features of the M Sports Package coming as standard on the BMW Z4 sDrive35is raises the dynamic driving potential of the car to an even higher level and clearly presents the particular qualities of this model through its looks alone.

Upon introduction of the new top model in the range, the M Sports Package is also becoming available as an option on the other versions of BMW's unique Roadster. The only difference is that instead of the wheels exclusive to the BMW Z4 sDrive35is, the other models come with 18-inch M light-alloy wheels on the M Sports Package.

The particular exterior features on the BMW Z4 sDrive35is include a striking front bumper with a horizontal trim bar in the outer air intakes finished in matt aluminium, like the bars in the BMW kidney grille. The slightly twisted contours of these trim bars take up the spoke design of the light-alloy rims as a further sign of distinction.

The rear bumper comes with specially accentuated surrounds on the exhaust tailpipes as well as a two-piece diffuser again created specifically for the BMW Z4 sDrive35is, finished at the top in body colour and featuring a black grained surface at the bottom. The M Aerodynamics Package included in the optional M Sports Package also on the other versions of the BMW Z4 Roadster furthermore comes with a rear bumper insert in Anthracite metallic.

Inside the BMW Z4 sDrive35is, the driving experience is enhanced to an even higher standard by features such as the M leather steering wheel with its gearshift paddles, an M footrest and sports seats. The instrument cluster comes with grey faces on the dials and the "sDrive35is" model designation in the instrument cluster.

Further features inside the BMW Z4 sDrive35is are the Anthracite-coloured BMW Individual roof lining, M entry strips, footmats with coloured piping and the "sDrive35is" model designation, as well as M interior trim in Aluminium carbon.

The M Sports Package on the other versions of the BMW Z4 Roadster includes an M gearshift lever knob in leather on the manual gearbox models. At the same time the range of leather upholstery is being further enhanced by an additional colour variant marking the launch of the BMW Z4 sDrive35is: Both the top model and all other versions of the BMW Z4 Roadster are now also available in Kansas Walnut leather as yet a further option.

The BMW Z4 sDrive35is comes with a choice of six paintwork colours. In addition to Alpine White and the metallic colours Titanium Silver, Sapphire Black, Space Grey and Deep Sea Blue, the BMW Z4 Roadster is now available for the first time in Melbourne Red metallic.

Regardless of the colour chosen, the exterior mirror caps on the BMW Z4 sDrive35is always come in Oxide Silver. Another optical feature on the top model, finally, is the "sDrive35is" model designation on the front side panels.

Each Series 51 Flying Spur is instantly recognisable - most notably in the cabin area - where the colour and trim team has created a wide selection of three-tone interiors demonstrating the full potential of the company's vast colour palette."

For Series 51 designs, the Bentley styling team operates on a 'rule of three' principle to create complex but harmonising colour schemes of depth and beauty, inspired by a customer's simple choice of three contrasting colours. With luxurious wood veneers and leather hides as the main canvas, the colour and trim specialists begin with a main interior colour (typically a darker shade) and then select a second insert colour to provide an eye-catching contrast. A critical skill is identifying the third 'accent' colour for the stitching and piping.

The selection of wood veneers or aluminium panels for the dashboard either complements the overall look or provides even greater contrast if the customer so desires.

Bentley has reserved the limited-edition Sapelli Pomelle veneer (which provides a rare, naturally occurring quilted effect in the wood) for the Series 51 Flying Spur and a range of further options, including Bentley's leather trimmed child seat and scatter cushions for the rear seats, may also be specified to further complement the exclusive design.

Whilst the 14 options for the Series 51 Flying Spur provide customers with the opportunity to select some of Bentley's most eye-catching design work, the colour and trim team is also more than happy to create even more bespoke designs, knowing they have only shown a fraction of the possibilities, as Melinda-June Jenkins explains:

"One of the most exciting aspects of the Series 51 designs is the feedback from Bentley customers and their desire to explore further what we can offer. Series 51 provides just a starting point and now we are creating designs which make an even stronger and more personal statement."

Kevin Durant's GMC Van Video

Kevin Durant, one of the best NBA player most people not at all are getting to see, drives his extra long conversion van 10 minutes from his house in the bounds of Oklahoma City to the Thunder's practice facility, which if not precisely in the middle of nowhere is at least on its border.

He passes wilting power lines and inoperative oil derricks and enormous fields of delicate yellow grass pocked with snow before turning onto a two-lane road and, just past the John Deere factory, pulling into the parking lot of the practice center, a converted roller rink. Unfolding his 6'9" frame from the van, Durant ambles past the strange rabbit lounge in the bushes and enters the gym for another day of work.

The 2011 Honda Odyssey Car Concept

2011 Honda Odyssey Concept Basic Dimensions:

Length (inches) 202.8
Width (inches) 78.5
Height (inches) 68.3
Wheelbase (inches) 118.1

The Honda Odyssey Concept that was on display at the Chicago Auto Show introduces a smooth and unique exterior styling direction for the next generation of the industry's best-selling minivan, set to debut this fall, American Honda Motor Co., Inc., as it was announced.

The Odyssey Concept significantly departs from usual minivan styling with its low and wide stance, highlighted by a "lightning-bolt" beltline that further distinguishes the vehicle's profile. Compared to the current Odyssey, the Concept's slightly lower roofline (-1.0 inch) and wider stance (+1.4 inch) contribute to a sleeker, stronger and more dynamic presence with improved aerodynamics that help increase fuel economy. Forthcoming improvements to the production Odyssey's interior are designed to further enhance the current model's accommodating space for people and cargo.

The steeply raked front and rear roof pillars, unique side-glass profile, chamfered roof line, and tapered rear cabin shape combine to create a dynamic and distinctive appearance from any perspective. The lightning-bolt beltline dives toward the rear of the vehicle emphasizing the new Odyssey's sporty appearance while enhancing outward visibility for third-row passengers. Aggressive body-to-wheel proportions reduce the perception of vertical height common to most minivan designs. Fender flares further accent the vehicle's securely planted and stylish persona. The concept vehicle's projector beam headlights, LED taillights and form-fit fog lights further heighten the sophisticated quality of the design.

Jangan Anggap Remeh sistem kelistrikan Mobil

Sistem kelistrikan mobil memang tidak sekuat listrik di rumah. Sumbernya saja Aki cuma menghasilkan tegangan sebesar 12 volt. dibandingkan dengan listrik di rumah yang tegangannya mencapai 220 volt. Jelas tidak bakal ada yang mau main-main dengan ini. Salah sedikit saja bisa berakibat fatal.

Tetapi, jangan dikira tegangan listrik pada mobil yang cuma 12 volt tidak berbahaya. Misalnya kebakaran yang terjadi pada plafon mobil. Kebakaran ini disebabkan oleh hubungan singkat alias korslet di kabel lampu kabin.

Setelah diselidiki,ternyata pemilik mobil baru saja mengganti lampu kabin standar dengan yang lebih keren atau lebih gaul. Tetapi tidak disangka terjadi kesalahan saat melakukan instalasi pengkabelannya. Akibatnya percikan api yang timbul selama terjadinya korslet akhirnya menimbulkan kobaran api yang besar.

Volt kecil tapi Dahsyat

Kejadian di atas menunjukkan bahwa masih ada pemilik mobil yang tidak waspada dengan sistem kelistrikan mobil. Mereka tidak berhati-hati dan tidak mempunyai perhatian ekstra ketika melakukan penggantian aksesoris yang berhubungan dengan listrik. Mungkin banyak juga di antara kita yang kurang tanggap terhadap bahaya listrik di mobil kendati teganganya kecil. Penyebabnya tidak jauh berbeda, hanya 12 volt, mobil Anda bisa terbakar.

Tetapi ingat, 12 volt itu cuma angka yang tertera pada bodi aki. Yang seharusnya diketahui adalah angka yang kayaknya kecil ini mempunyai energi yang dahsyat. Sumbernya adalah dari larutan kimia yang terdapat di dalamnya.

Penyebabnya adalah cairan aki. Sebuah aki berisikan cairan yang namanya accu zuur (asam sulfat pekat). Cairan ini punya sifat elektrolit alias mengantarkan listrik. Nah, dalam sebuah aki, selain digunakan sebagai pengantar listrik, cairan ini juga berfungsi untuk menyimpan energi listrik yang besar.

Kalau disebut-sebut aki menghasilkan listrik sebenarnya itu adalah energi yang tersimpan. Energi ini adalah akibat dari reaksi antara cairan elektrolit dengan lempengan logam di dalam sel aki. Reaksi ini menghasilkan pergerakan ion di lempengan besi yang akhirnya menimbulkan energi listrik yang lumayan besar.

Yang jelas reaksi kimia yang terjadi tadi sangat berbahaya. Pasalnya, reaksi yang terjadi secara terus-menerus menyebabkan energi listrik yang terkumpul banyak sekali. Makanya ada yang bilang kalau sebuah aki hampir mirip dengan senjata terisi yang sudah siap terkokang. Tinggal dipicu sedikit saja bisa mengeluarkan ledakan yang dahsyat. Itu sebabnya mesin mobil bertenaga besar sekalipun bisa distarter.

Bayangkan bagaimana jadinya kalau energi listrik seperti tadi menyengat kita. Tentu akibatnya bakal fatal. Untungnya selama kita di dalam mobil tidak pernah kejadian terkena sengatan listrik yang besar. Pasalnya, arus pada sistem kelistrikan mobil disalurkan dengan baik (ground). Kalau tidak demikian mungkin ceritanya bakal lain.

Perlu di Perhatikan

Jika dihubungkan dengan kejadian di atas, kira-kira bisa ditebak, apa penyebabnya. Instalasi aksesoris baru pada sistem kelistrikan mobil wajib hukumnya dan disertai dengan sistem ground yang baik. Pasalnya kalaupun ada kesalahan saat instalasi, akibat yang fatal bisa diminimalisasi. Misalkan terjadi korslet, energi listrik yang tidak bisa tersalurkan tidak bakal menumpuk terlalu besar.

Percikan api dari kabel lampu kabin yang akhirnya membakar plafon mobil tadi adalah contoh energi listrik yang enggak tersalurkan dengan baik. Makanya kalau ingin memasang aksesoris baru pada sistem kelistrikan mobil, hal-hal kecil seperti ini jangan sampai terlewatkan.

Apa saja yang mesti diperhatikan kalau ingin pasang instalasi baru? Pertama, pastikan pemasangan kabel-kabel tidak ada yang salah. Perhatikan tiap sambungan yang ada. Pemisahannya harus sempurna agar tidak terjadi kemungkinan korslet. Setelah itu, jangan sampai ada sambungan yang dibiarkan terbuka sehingga bagian dalam kabel terlihat. Tutup pakai isolasi setiap kali selesai mengerjakan sambungan kabel.

Kedua, perhatikan bagian kabel yang terhubung dengan ground. Pastikan jangan sampai instalasi yang baru dilakukan tidak ada ground-nya. Jika bingung mencari sambungan yang mengarah ke ground, hubungkan saja kabelnya dengan bodi mobil. Asal diketahui bahwa seluruh bodi mobil yang terbuat dari pelat logam merupakan ground yang baik.

Ketiga, kalau sudah yakin menemukan kabel yang terhubung dengan ground, lakukan pengecekan pada sekering instalasi. Pastikan kapasitas sekering sesuai dengan kapasitas daya listrik yang dibutuhkan. Jangan sampai lebih kecil atau lebih besar dari kebutuhan. Kalau lebih kecil sekering bakal sering putus. Sebaliknya kalau lebih besar sangat berbahaya sekiranya terjadi korslet.

Nah, jangan anggap remeh sistem kelistrikan di dalam mobil. Apalagi kalau ingin menambah aksesoris baru dan mengerjakan instalasinya sendiri. Sebaiknya mengetahui persis dulu bagaimana sistem kelistrikan yang ada pada mobil. Lantas kalau tidak yakin lebih baik dibawa ke ahlinya atau para mekanik bengkel. Tetapi sekaligus harus tetap memperhatikan cara kerja mereka agar tahu jika di kemudian hari ada masalah

Usher Buys Justin Bieber A Car?

Is this for real? Justin Bieber might be a teen heartthrob, the popular singer of the song "Baby" (see the above music video) and be the man of the moment on the pop scene, but things got even better for the teen after Usher bought him a brand new Range Rover car!?? Bieber turned 16 earlier this month and marked the occasion by having a huge party with all his friends in Los Angeles, but his Sweet Sixteenth was marked by his mentor Usher when the Yeah! hitmaker unveiled a brand new Range Rover for the teen.

"I haven't really bought anything; I haven't really went out and bought a bunch of stuff," Bieber told JSYK. "I bought myself a laptop, but that's pretty much it. My biggest thing I'm probably going to get is my car next year. Probably a Maserati or the new Range Rover." When the Canadian pop singer recently dropped by the British TV show Live From Studio Five, he revealed that Usher hooked him up with a brand-new Range Rover for his sweet 16. "I was in L.A (for my birthday)," he said. "I went to L.A. first and I had a party out there for all my friends and stuff and then we went to Toronto and had a family party up there. (Usher) helped buy me a car. He bought me a Range Rover. I can drive."
