2010 Mercedes Benz SLK230 has good advantage

comparing the Mercedes-Benz SLK

Mercedes expanded the SLK line up to add the SLK320 which was driven by 3.2 liter V6 engine which had been taken straight from the C class. This six cylinder engine was much more refined for a car which had the three pointer start. The sports character was fully justified in 2002, when the SLK32 AMG joined the fray, with its V6 engine and output of 349 horsepower. The six cylinder engine was more smooth and powerful and it was also not too harsh on fuel economy. Depending upon the model, fuel consumption for SLK320 is rated at between 12.0 nod 13.0 L/100 Kms in the city and between 8 L/100 kms on highway.

Exterior features also include the new 18-inch, 5-spove spoke alloy wheels that are available in a choice of two finishes, Titanium Silver or Chrome Shadow, the black surrounds on the headlamps and the 2LOOK Edition badge on the wings.

The Mercedes Benz GL320 gives consumers 20mpg in city driving and 25mpg of highway driving while the Mercedes Benz GL450 allows drivers only 15mpg of city driving and 19mpg of highway driving. With gas prices increasing everyday, gas mileage can make all the difference in your decision making process

So guys, what you should know overall is that this car is one of the most fabulous and luxurious SUV ever in the world. It makes the car become "Best New Sport Utility Vehicle" in the 2006 Canadian Car of the Year awards. What another special else you want to get from Mercedes Benz M-Class? Just ask yourself.

2010 The Mercedes Benz GL

The Mercedes Benz GL-Class cannot be compared to any other make on the market. It is only fair to compare the Mercedes Benz GL320 to its other version the Mercedes Benz GL450. Both of these models fall in the light truck category and offer seating capacity for 7 passengers. Their pricing is also similar but the Mercedes Benz GL450 gives you more power for your money. The Mercedes Benz GL320 CDI SUV is equipped with a 3.0-liter 24-valve V6 diesel engine that outputs 215hp at 3,800rpm while the Mercedes Benz GL450 SUV comes equipped with a 4.6-liter 32-valve V8 engine that outputs 335hp at 6,000rpm.

This is just general information for the readers who completely have no idea about Mercedes Benz M Class. Since the writer himself only knows that everything about Mercedes is always something high, fashionable and classy. However, those three words are not enough to give you the more and more special about this everlasting brand.

2010 The Mercedes Benz CL

Among the many tech highlights is a new Active Lane Keeping Assist safety feature that utilizes a camera mounted on the inside of the windshield and a radar system that scans the side of the roadway, to gently apply the brakes when the driver steers away from his lane.

The 2011MY CL-Class will make its market debut in Autumn of 2010.

After a good deal of research I decided to go for a Mercedes-Benz CL, a model renowned for its build quality and comfort. It's a great-looking car and the diesel engine we were keen on is well-regarded. The first time we took a long trip in the CL my wife and I really liked the way it glided serenely along the motorway without the noise you experience in many cars.

Used Mercedes Benz CL 600

Pete J Ridgard is a writer and a car enthusiast. He currently writes for the automotive industry. Here he discusses Used Mercedes-Benz cars.

With few guarantees, buying a used car can be a daunting prospect. I recently handed back my company car following 30 years of subsidised motoring and suddenly I found myself in the market for a used car for the very first time. My wish list was pretty detailed. I wanted something comfortable, robust and reliable for our long journeys visiting my son and daughter in law - that's why a used Mercedes-Benz made perfect sense to me.

2010 The Toyota 4Runner Trial

The Toyota 4Runner is one of Toyota's midsize SUVs. It is a great family vehicle as well as great for those wanting to tackle some rough terrain. The 2011 4Runner gets 17 miles per gallon in the city and 23 miles per gallon on the highway. It is available in either rear- or all-wheel drive and is offered in 3 different trims: SR5, Trail or Limited.

Antenna replacement does not have to warrant a trip to the repair shop. Most problems can be fixed simply by purchasing a new Toyota antenna and installing it yourself. This means you only have to find a Toyota 4Runner parts dealer rather than pay a mechanic. Most Toyota 4Runner parts can be found online, so finding a new Toyota antenna may not even require you to leave your own home.

Be sure to have someone around if you are not familiar with auto repair. Don't attempt to remove or adjust parts you feel may put you at risk. Auto repair can be exciting, but always take precautions to keep yourself safe.

2010 The Toyota FJ Cruiser

The trail teams are for guys with mud in their veins, it's well worth it in order to spend their days hanging and wheelin' with other dedicated off-roaders

My favorite feature of the FJ Cruiser has got to be its unique styling. This car does not look like any other car on the road and I really think a lot of customers are drawn to this very unique look. The exterior is covered with a two tone paint job with the main body one color and the roof being colored white. With only two normal sized doors on the car it also has a very sporty look for a large car like this. The front and rear lights are unique as well as they protrude a great deal from the body of the car and offer some added styling to the overall look.

2011 Best Toyota FJ Cruiser Features

The Toyota Motor Company makes some great SUV and off-road vehicles and the FJ Cruiser is one of the stars of that lineup. The car starts at a base price of $24,180 and offers some great features to potential buyers. There are three different varieties of the FJ Cruiser available which include a 2WD auto version and 4WD version available in both auto and manual. We have taken a look at these features and have chosen which ones we think stand out the most.

Currently, the Toyota FJ Cruiser Trail Team can be found rolling down a back U.S. highway on their way to kick butt at another one of America's favorite 4x4 trailheads or any place in the great United States that needs explored by a fun and powerful off roading machine. Wanna come along for the ride? Don't worry the 4x4 community always has room for one more off roader and one more big wheeler.

2011 Toyota Camry tends to be a class leader

Using the recently updated Camry Hybrid as a base, Toyota's Australian design team adorned the saloon with a new fascia featuring vertical fog lamps, larger lower opening and a streamlined upper grille. The "aero" theme continues along the side skirts and the rear-end with the diffuser.

Safety is another area that the 2011 Toyota Camry tends to be a class leader. Each model comes with 7 airbags as standard equipment. That include dual front airbags, full length side curtain airbags, driver knee airbags, and front seat side airbags. Compliment these safety features with the comfortable interior and you have a car that is not only fun to drive, but very safe as well. In crash test ratings the Camry did more than decent and proved itself one of the safest cars on the market.

Mini Clubman - What the Auto Press Says:The 2010 Mini Clubman ranks 3 out of 8 Affordable Compact Wagons. This ranking is based on our analysis of 20 published reviews and test drives of the Mini Clubman, and our analysis of reliability and safety data.

In these modern days it is probably fairer to compare it to like priced cars such as the Volkswagen Golf. While you get slightly better class trim in the VW you won't be making the same statement. So you are really trading style for finish when it comes to these cars.

2011 The Mini Clubman Black Editions

The 2010 Mini Clubman expands on everything that's good about the Mini Cooper -- literally. A stretched wheelbase allows for a more comfortable backseat and roomier cargo area than the regular Mini, and the fun performance Minis are known for is still intact. However, it you're looking to move a lot of people and cargo, there are more practical choices.

How does it drive then? Well as you would expect it is a different class to the original. In fact we were driving it for two weeks and there was no rust! Something that you wouldn't have been able to say with confidence on the original car.

2011 the Volvo XC60 experience

Marked as a 2010 model, Volvo's upcoming entry in the small premium utility segment, the XC60, will arrive in the States this March where it will be offered as a single T6 AWD model featuring a 281HP turbocharged six-cylinder engine and standard all-wheel drive with Instant Traction. While final pricing is expected to be announced late January, Volvo said that the base MSRP of the XC60 will be under $40,000.

And the Volvo XC60 is no slouch on the road either. Powered by a 3.0L turbocharged V6 engine mated to a six-speed automatic transmission, the Volvo crossover has enough oomph in it to charge up hills as well as move itself on snowy roads or traverse muddy terrains. If pulling a trailer is part of the XC60 experience, the Volvo doesn't disappoint as it has been rated with a 3300 lb towing capacity.

The result is a much smoother, quieter ride with better handling and with no sacrifice to interior room. Indeed, when all five passenger seats are occupied, everyone is treated to comfortable seats with plenty of head and leg room to spare.

The focal point is without doubt Volvo's now well known 'floating' center console, in this instance having a bright metallic finish. It presents an array of logically-arranged and clearly-marked controls - the human-shaped air-distribution graphic being a particular case in point - which become almost intuitive at first glance.

The 2010 Volvo XC70 is covered by a four-year/50,000-mile limited warranty

Despite it being the very first vehicle to venture in a segment that was quite foreign to Volvo, experts in the industry have said that the Volvo XC70 was a success on its own. In fact, it has become quite so successful that it continues to be manufactured and sold. Just last year, Volvo has been able to pronounce that they were able to completely sell 35,000 units of this one.

Las Vegas, NV (October 30, 2007) - Lifeguards on Southern California's famous beaches have been glamorized by Hollywood for decades. While they share the spirit of adventure and camaraderie, these dedicated men and women are highly trained professionals who take safety very seriously. Half a world away, a Volvo designer in Sweden who is captivated by lifeguard skill competitions accepted the challenge to design a show car for his heroes. The result, Volvo's XC70 Surf Rescue (SR) concept, pays homage to the brave individuals who protect and serve the ocean-going public.

Strong any road with New Volvo XC70

Volvo rates the base XC70's 3.2-liter engine at 235 horsepower and 236 lb-ft of torque. Although it is smooth and very quiet, many critics find its power and torque unimpressive in the heavy XC70, providing only average acceleration. Fuel economy is not outstanding, either. The EPA rates the 3.2 AWD at 16/22 city/highway, and Volvo recommends premium fuel.

Volvo’s XC70 Surf Rescue concept was conceived from the Volvo Cars design team and built by Aria, a concept car building firm located in Irvine, California. Inspired from lifeguard vehicles seen on California beaches, the XC70 Surf Rescue is equipped with a 3.2-liter engine producing 235 Hp and it rides atop a 5-inch-lift suspension, oversized tires and heavily modified body panels.
