Boys Life October 2007

Donald’s Review Boys Life October 2007
Cool Wheels
I was reading this article and I saw a lot of cool cars like the Lamborghini Murcielago – LP640. It has a 6.5 liter V12 engine (640 horsepower), it roars at a top speed of 210mph, and hits 62 in 3.4 seconds. This car sells for about $350,000.

Also saw the Jaguar C-XF, it has a six speed 4.2 liter V8 (420 horsepower) engine, this is a concept car for techno innovation. It has dual view screen for driver (GPS) and passenger DVD’s plus much more. This car sells for most likely a pretty penny if it makes it to the showroom floor.

The Dodge Viper SRT10 also appears in this article. It sports a 8.4 liter V10, gets 560 pound feet of torque, and goes 0 – 60 mph in less than 4 seconds. The car costs $83,145 base price.

The Chevrolet Volt is an electric car that you can plug into your house and is good for 40 miles on a full charge. Runs on GM’s E-Flex Propulsion System, which can charge the battery from a 1.0 liter 3 cylinder turbo engine/ethanol gasoline blend.

The BMW Hydrogen 7 is the first hydrogen powered everyday luxury performance vehicle. The engine, a spin off from the 7 series 12 cylinder, runs on gasoline or liquid hydrogen (not fuel cell). Engine power is 260 horses and torque stays the same as you switch fuels with the push of a button. Why it’s cool: green is good. Only selected VIP drivers can purchase.
