55,565 Miles 6 Cyl. All California Car 4 Door New Goodyear Tires A/c on 2040-cars
Sunnyvale, California, United States
|
This is really a great car, fully checked and maintained,
comfortable daily driver with factory A/C, stereo all the bells and whistles! Adult owned, All California Car – so it’s never been in
harsh weather. We bought the car from a “little
Old lady” that used the car as a grocery getter and so it subsequently was
rarely driven. When we bought the car (+/- 6 months ago) for our daughter
we had a qualified mechanic go over the car from A to Z, I didn’t want to leave
any stone unturned in that we ensured our daughter would be inheriting a safe
car to drive on campus. And with all that, plans changed and she decided
dealing with campus parking wasn’t for her. It’s really a great car and one you’ll easily fall in love
with Car rides smooth – Thanks to the 4 brand new Goodyear tires
and dialed in suspension You’ll get the original owners-manual, all of the maintenance
records I have and 3 chip imbedded keys – not easy to replace nor cheap for
that matter. Nothing funky coming from the tailpipe or unusual smells
from the engine, you’ll get an occasional water drip from the A/C while
operating but otherwise no leaks, drips or errors. Recent smog check done to prepare for sell, Smog check
technician remarked “what a beautiful car, runs like a dream” sorry don’t have
that statement Notarized. As previously mentioned spend the money on pulling out the minor
dent, a dash cover and a cover for the rear center brake light and you’ll have
a car close to ‘rolling off the assembly-line perfect’ as you’ll find, though
keep in mind it is 15 years old and none of us are as good as we were 15 years
ago. I am sure I’ve missed a lot but ask any questions you have and I’ll be
happy to go into more detail. Now for the PAYMENT TERMS - At the conclusion of the
auction, the winning bidder must make a deposit of $250.00 via PayPal (within 3

if you have a shipper that you wish to utilize I will accommodate after you
make arrangements. If you choose to pick the car up in person, I can meet you
at the San Jose, CA airport. The car is also for sale locally and I reserve the
right to end the auction at any time. Actual mileage on the car at the time of

2013 Hennessey VelociRaptor 600 SUV
Thu, 13 Jun 2013Raptor, Excursion, Texas And Hennessey
Each of those words are synonyms for big and bold - combine all four and you've got one of the largest, most powerful and robust street-going sport utility vehicles in the world.
John Hennessey is a Texas-based tuner known for creating some of the fastest and most capable cars on the planet. Over the past two decades, machines like the Viper Venom 550, Ford GT 1000 Twin Turbo, HPE 700 LS9 Camaro and the almighty Venom GT have emerged from the Hennessey Performance garage. And those are just the celebrated flagships; the company has modified thousands of other street cars including those from Audi, Bentley, Cadillac, Ferrari, Ford, Porsche and Toyota, to name a few.
2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L EcoBoost
Fri, 09 May 2014I'll be honest; when Ford first unveiled its 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, I was skeptical. Past attempts at building turbocharged American cars were almost universally awful, I reasoned, so why would Ford's latest effort be any different? This may seem foolish today, considering the success that the growing EcoBoost range has achieved - particularly the 2.0-liter and 1.6-liter mills. Yet I once again found myself questioning Ford.
It's the makeup of the 1.0-liter, turbocharged three-cylinder slotted into the compact engine bay of this Fiesta that has a way of breeding doubt. Three-cylinder engines remain an extreme rarity in the US. What's more, they earned a less-than-desirable reputation for applications in the 1980s and 1990s, and my trepidation about this latest three-pot as a result.
As I found out, though, history is a poor informant of modern technology. The thrust available in other cars with the EcoBoost badge on the back has not gone missing here; something the International Engine of the Year committee has lauded. That august body named the 1.0-liter Ecoboost the best engine of 2012 and 2013. After a week of driving, it didn't take long for my fear of threes to get turned into something like that line of thinking.
Jaguar design boss admits X-Type was a mistake
Thu, 19 Sep 2013History has a way of repeating itself, especially in the auto industry. When Jaguar was owned by Ford, the British brand attempted to field a competitor for the BMW 3 Series, called the X-Type. Based on the bones of a Ford Mondeo, it aped the styling of Jaguar's flagship model, the XJ, while borrowing liberally from the Ford parts bin. That was 2001.
Now, in 2013, Jaguar is planning a new 3 Series challenger based on the platform previewed by the C-X17 Concept, while Ford is attempting to take the latest Mondeo upmarket. The moves have both brands recognizing where, why, and how the X-Type failed. "It didn't look mature or powerful or anything. It was just a car," Jaguar's current head of advanced design, Julian Thomson, told PistonHeads. Basing the X-Type on a front-drive car while giving it styling that was meant for a rear-driver lead to proportions that "were plainly wrong," Thomson told PH. Ford's European head of quality, Gunnar Herrmann, added that the X-Type was "a fake Jaguar, because every piece I touch is Ford."
For what it's worth, the X-Type's successor in the segment will sport rear-drive, with plenty of input from Ian Callum. Thomson described the new model, which would challenge the 3 Series as having, "Big wheels right to the ends of the car, low bonnet, short overhangs, very low cabins." Sounds good to us.
