XXX Performance launched its version of the Audi R8 V10, the XXX Performance Audi R8 V10. More than a combination of names, the XXX Performance Audi brings updates both in the interior and the engine.
Specifications
Performance
The XXX Performance Audi is definitely stronger and faster than the base Audi R8. The sport-tuned suspension, the Oxigin rims and Dunlop SP Sport Maxx tires give it better grip, letting the car efficiently put the power to the ground. Carbon fiber is used in most part of the exterior making the car lighter and nimbler.
Engine
The XXX Performance had the stock 5.2 liter V10 engine software-optimized, paired with a top-of-the-line sports exhaust system, and equipped with a BMC carbon airbox. The engine also has a Bluetooth flap control system provided by Capistro.
All these updates work together to make the engine powerful enough to deliver 650 horsepower. It is a great improvement from the 525 horsepower that you get from the stock R8 V10.
Exterior
Its appearance is what makes the XXX Performance Audi truly exciting. XXX Performance drenched the Audi R8 in bilious snake green paintwork and used G-Ride Air-ride system on the coil over kit to give the car a lower stance. Even the rims are accented with the green paint, making the car truly eye catching.
The front grille is painted black and the headlamps are darkened, accentuating the front. The carbon exterior rear view mirror, as well as the side blades were also colored black giving strong contrast to the bright green theme.
Interior
High quality Alcantara and genuine leather are used to cover the seats and the white stitching provides a contrasting color to the dark wrapping. Carbon materials can also be found in the cabin which is highly sport-inspired.
The Nissan Altima proves that it is one of the better choices if you like midsize cars.
The new Altima provides adequate performance and comfort for your daily driving needs.
Performance
Having driven the V6 3.5 liter model, we can definitely say that the Altima performs well. It can definitely get you where you want to go every day. Other test drivers claim that it is even more fun to drive than the Hyundai Sonata (MSRP $20,795; 24 city / 35 hwy) and Toyota Camry (MSRP $22,055; 25 city / 35 hwy).
The car accelerates well and is efficient in passing, thanks to its advanced CVT. And although it is not the fastest or the sportiest in its class, it surely is one of the most comfortable cars to drive. It is also worth mentioning that the V6 comes with a sport tuned suspension which makes the driving experience better.
Specifications
Engine
Two engines are available for the 2012 Nissan Altima. They are the 4-cylinder 2.5 engine and the V6 3.5 liter engine. We prefer the latter because it delivers 270 horsepower and 258 lbs/ft of torque. All models are only available with a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT).
What is good about the CVT is that it can use unlimited gear ratios to drive the car forward, consuming the least amount of fuel possible. Bringing power in one consistent line, the CVT in the Altima is one of the most advanced. The V6 engine consumes 27 mpg for highway and 20 mpg for city driving.
Exterior
The looks of the new Altima seem to be a little dated, although you can still see the aggressiveness in it. Perhaps if the design was introduced years ago, it can be described as fresh. Nissan can definitely improve this aspect in its next editions of the Altima.
Interior
The overall interior of the new Altima is satisfactory. It may not provide lots of space for tall drivers but it has some surprises for the technology oriented motorists. The central console has many features that car shoppers are looking for.
Like any other car, interior upgrades come with a price. There is not much to tell about the seat styling because it is very basic. But if you like simplicity, you will certainly like seat design.
There is adequate space for the driver and the front passenger but taller rear passengers may have little legroom and headroom. Children will not have problems with the rear seats but full grown adults may. The Altima is indeed a family sedan.
Hyundai Sonata Hybrid is reputed to be good in fuel economy and good transmission among many other pleasant standard features.
The Sonata Hybrid is ideal for those looking for an affordable hybrid car since it has less base price compared to its other competitors.
Performance
The 2012 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid has a 2.4L DOHC II engine which produces improved fuel economy dues to decreased pumping and reduced friction. At the same time, the power steering system is motor driven and is speed sensitive which makes it perform quite well at lower speeds while at the same time giving a less touchy handling at top speeds.
The shock absorbers which have Amplitude Selective Damping (ASD) technology make the Sonata smooth to ride
Specifications
Exterior
The Sonata comes in an exquisite style with a raked roofline and 17 inch alloy rim-wheels. It also has LED headlights and at the same time it has daylight running lights. The tail lights are also LED and the side mirror signal lights give the Sonata added visibility.
This model also uses a proximity key. The panoramic sunroof allows sunshine and fresh air to get in through its power tilt-and-slide functionality. The car has heated side mirrors to keep off frost. It also has solar controlled windows that ably block UV rays in order to protect the inside of the car.

The controls are made with the user in mind. They are easy to use with audio and phone controls mounted on the steering. And with a rear-view camera, reversing is made easy.
