Real sport ride only with Porsche 911 Carrera 4S


Porsche 911 4S 2012


The GTS is the swan song of the 997. That's all Porsche has learned during the current occupation of 911 distilled in a package that is designed for drivers, street racers weekends. The specifications not particularly impressive acceleration and does not deform the continuous space / time as some other 911, but this is not the point. This is the best 911 right now because it promotes and encourages. He delights in his benefactions parties as few things we brought. It is pure, but not unbalanced. It is a love letter to someone smart enough to roll to elect other horse mackerel variants 911 (a few million, if you do the math).

Porsche 911 4S 2012 rear look
Let's start with the output. The standard Carrera S (again, 997) is equipped with 385 horsepower from its 3.8-liter flat-six. GTS-ups played at 408 horsepower at 7300 rpm with the default installation option Powerkit $ 16,900 (tweaks to the respiratory intake and exhaust) 997 S. School Leavers But amazingly enough, the couple who impressed at the wheel. Twist is up to 310 lb.-ft. at 4200 rpm, but with 238 lb-ft is available almost from idle, the linearity of his performance shining through and achieves a race of 4.4 miles per second to 60 hours.

Porsche 911 4S 2012 interior
You have more than 3000 rpm to push the value to your order, which means playing with the glorious - and standard - six-speed manual is minimized when knocking in the corners. An optional PDK dual-clutch automatic order an additional $ 4320, but only the seriously allergic three-foot-nix is ​​recommended, with his staff of precise and clear shots, but made clutch. Like this configuration around the city, not bear it.

Other features included are 19-inch centre-lock wheels shod with Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 black (front and rear 235/35 R19 305/30 R19) runs over $ 6K at the dealership, while the front and sports steering wheel design, interior plaster Alcantara and other trinkets that varied with the price of its false in almost GT3 GTS range. So what is the price of the GTS $ 103 100.

Porsche 911 4S 2012 Engine
Our tester to the label, just north of $ 110 000 and is equipped with the bits that mattered, especially sports Chrono package ($ 960), Alcantara / leather buckets ($ 2,990) and a sport suspension that lowers the GTS an additional 20 mm and includes a limited slip differential ($ 950). All that is insignificant compared to what is already in the Black American Express - assuming you do not have the option of ceramic brakes option of $ 8150, but still ...
On the issue of suspension is the inability of the GTS alone - at least around the city. Bosses, pushing all sorts of imperfections and asphalt are directly sent over 30 rounds gum before attacking his position as a dominatrix for a good tip. It is brutal, but it is far from being comfortable up to speed. And it is magic.

Super-stud Audi's SUV Q5 vs Q7


Audi Q7
Planning to buy a luxury SUV and the dilemma of what is the difference between the Q5 and Q7! Audi is the most innovative in the world automotive industry has experienced phenomenal growth in recent years, so if you think about these cars, you make a very reliable brand for your home.


Before the first interview Let's compare the similarities of these SUVs. Both are in an SUV off-road well-known house, and the Audi are one of the best bikes to own. Both include a variety of security measures, such as EBD, ESP, ABS, ASR and EDL to ensure safe driving in all conditions. These were the only similarities between these two.

Audi Q5
Now go to Q5 Q7 vs real, the first thing is the seats, Q5 can comfortably accommodate five passengers while the Q7 is designed for 7 to the third row seating for two additional people. Q7 has a 460mm longer wheelbase and is longer than the Q5. If you must use the vehicle for urban, it is recommended to go to Q5, which when running in a city of this size is a lot. Q7 has a powerful diesel engine and new clean diesel technology in the 3.0 TDI version is so fine it feels like to run a gasoline engine. The frontal aspect of the Q7 has two lights, one above the headlights and the other on the bumper, which gives the SUV an aggressive long-term look and can be easily identified from the distance even greater.



There are some features that define only the Audi Q7 on a different level. It is an air suspension system, which electronically controls the air suspension with adjustable damping. The system automatically adjusts the ride height of the roads. You can also customize according to your dress. It is a selection of five modes (auto, comfort, dynamic, and the lift-off) is selected from the MMI. The parking brake pedal unique, easy comfort. The key service stores the individual settings for the driver and the vehicle information service. Cleverly created Inland Cabin hosts many convenience features, like cup holders to the third row, multi-function steering wheel is also standard trim, luggage cover and LED taillights.
Audi Q5 and Q7 both are from same number of levels of standard equipments, SE and S line. Q7 standard trim includes features much more than the Q5 in terms of both engines and features. Q7 standard arrangement includes many features that are available to Premium finishes and Q5.

8-speed Tiptronic Audi Q5 comes standard on the Q7 in carrying out a series of options, finishes, but there is no option for 8-speed tiptonic.

Thus, it is clear that the engines Q7 is much more powerful than the Q5, but as a result, they spend much too much fuel. The most effective model in the Audi Q5 2.0 TFSI engines gasoline mileage that return 34.9mpg and the diesel version 2.0 TDI engine achieves 45.6mpg. Audi Q7 is loaded with powerful engines and off-road performance returns a very poor 26.4mpg average fuel economy with its 3.0 TFSI engine and 38.2mpg with the 3.0 TDI version. So if your priority is performance and mileage do not count, the Q7 is a better solution, and if you can get a little less powerful engine, the Q5 is also nothing less.

Audi Q7 can be seen as a lion and Q5, a tiger. I hope everyone knows the difference between the two patterns.

In the end, we can define the Audi Q5 compact SUV built primarily in order city. It should also consider that only five passenger seats. Audi Q7 is a great achievement for kids who love to drive off-road, and travels often in faraway places without compromise. Price range is a big difference too, as the basis for the choice of the Q5 from € 27,980.00 to the downloaded version of the Q5 S Line Special Edition comes with £ 40,745.00. Now, if we say, Q7, just starting at £ 40,975.00, and the fully loaded version of the Q7 S line is 55185 pounds. Buy the full load model Q5, and you're going to love it.
