The Fastest Camaro Ever: 2012 Chevy Camaro ZL1

February 10, 2011 /

Check this out from our friends at From Sub5zero.com:

Well, we now have a Camaro that’s enough to make some Corvette owners jealous. It’s the all-new 2012 Camaro ZL1. Chevy introduced the Camaro at the 2011 Chicago Auto Show today, and it’s calling it the “fastest and most technologically advanced Camaro ever built.” Mighty impressive words to describe a car that’s already a classic.

While specs are still not finalized, Chevy predicts that the ZL1 will pull 550 ponies and 550 lb-ft of torque out of its all-aluminum, 6.2-liter LSA V8 engine. That output will be directed to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transmission and will make the ZL1 the fastest Camaro ever built.

This is awesome news for Camaro fans. Read the full article and check out more photos and videos. If you can’t afford the new one you can always search for used Camaros for sale. With so many new Camaros on the market you can probably get a good deal!

2011 Lincoln MKX AWD Review

February 9, 2011 /

The Lincoln MKX was redesigned for 2011 and there is no doubt that the 2011 model is a huge improvement. As Lincoln plows forward with an aggressive overhaul of the brand, the 2011 Lincoln MKX AWD should keep its place at the table. The MKX is much more than a rebadged Ford Edge. The 2011 Lincoln MKX is a full blown luxury crossover.
Exterior

The first thing you see on the 2011 Lincoln MKX is the new grille, fenders, lamps and hood, which come together for a very sleek look. Also new for the exterior in 2011 are rear individual LED tail lamps, new wheels, new exhaust outlets and a new lift gate. Our MKX was Red Candy Metallic with 20″ chrome clad aluminum wheels. All together, the crossover was a big hit with admirers on the road. With the new rear tail lamps, dual exhaust with chrome tips, and the rear spoiler the MKX takes on a classy yet sporty look. Again, the new grille, which Lincoln likes to refer to as a “split-wing grille,” is a big change on this vehicle. I feel Lincoln got it right this time as the grille set the tone for the entire exterior finish!

Ferrari FF ‘Fast Four’ New Photos, More AWD Winter Testing Shots

February 6, 2011 /

You know the world is becoming a better place when Ferarri’s new flagship will sport AWD!

From AutoGuide.com:

Ferrari has once again released a smattering of photos of its new flagship, known tentatively as the FF or Fast Four. The name of course is a reference to the fact that this is the Prancing Horse’s first-ever AWD-equipped car.

The successor to the 612 Scagliettei, the FF maintains seating for four and even offers genuine cargo room thanks to the almost wagon-like design.

But enough about practicality, the FF also gets a direct-injection 6.3-liter V12 engine with 651-hp and 504 ft lbs of torque, enabling a 0-62 mph time of just 3.7 seconds.

But that’s not all, with the FF promising improved fuel economy and reduced emissions thanks to the company’s HELE (High Emotion Low Emission) system that cut emissions by 23 percent in the California HELE Concept.

Ferrari will release additional information at the car’s world premiere at the upcoming Geneva Auto Show in March. Until then, check out the full gallery below and see AutoGuide’s 2011 Geneva Auto Show preview here.

2011 Nissan Altima Coupe Review

February 5, 2011 /

Bullz-Eye.com reviewed the 2011 Nissan Altima Coupe. Find out what they had to say about the ride below!

Exterior
The projector beam headlights on the 2011 Altima are aggressive and very stylish. One could easily mistake the Altima for the pricier and larger Nissan Maxima (that’s not a bad thing for Altima buyers!). The model we tested was Navy Blue, equipped with 17″ Alloy Wheels, dual chrome-tipped exhaust finishers, body-color front and rear splash guards and UV reducing solar glass. All together, the car looked like a sporty but sizable vehicle. The 2011 Altima has an overall length of 190.7 inches so you’re not jumping into a sub compact.

Interior
When I first entered the 2011 Altima Coupe I could see a fine line between this car and and a sports car. You really do get the feel of a sports car with the room of a midsize. The front bucket seats are comfortable and the charcoal cloth trim in our model looked and felt great. The rear access passenger seat lever makes it easy to enter and exit the back seats, which also provide ample room for two passengers. The center dashboard is where the action is at. The XM satellite radio sounded great with a Bose nine speaker system. The USB port with iPod connectivity, a 4.3″ display with a very helpful rearview monitor, built-in Bluetooth hands-free phone system, a dual-zone auto temperature control system and push button start round out the interior feature set. The sporty, leather-wrapped steering wheel fits right in with this crafty interior layout. Trunk space is limited, but the 60/40 rear seat fold down can add some space for longer objects. The review model did have a moon roof but driving during January in the midwest is no time to enjoy that feature. Speaking of the roof, I did notice a lack of headroom, which was the most glaring drawback in the 2011 Altima Coupe.

Drive to Dallas: A big chill in The Big Easy

February 3, 2011 /

Despite a winter storm that shut down a large portion of the country, Bullz-Eye was able to arrive in New Orleans on time thanks to some great work by our airlines! One of the other members of the “Game On” team wasn’t able to fly out of New York on Tuesday so our Drive to Dallas has been altered a bit with the drive now Starting on Thursday.

Now make no mistake the weather is cold in the Big Easy but the accommodations at the Westin and the great food can temper even the coldest of days. The Camellia Grill was a great spot for breakfast and the Manhattan omelet with hash browns was off the charts. If our group didn’t already eat enough we stopped by Cafe Du Monde for beignets and some café au lait! Unreal and only in New Orleans.

Last night we kicked things off with an incredible dinner at Dickie Brennan’s Steakhouse. Fried oysters and seafood gumbo kicked off the meal, and tonight we’re hoping for some authentic New Orleans étouffée!

Bullz-Eye will hit the road in a 2011 Chrysler 200 tomorrow morning but first we’ll do some filming today so look out for plenty of content on our Drive to Dallas.
