Volkswagen Mini Gol – A car for little people
Volkswagen Brazil builds a subcompact car that’s smaller than the Golf, smaller even than the Polo. It’s called the Gol, and it is the entry-level vehicle for VW’s South American offerings. Here is a vehicle that would probably be too small for North American roads, but there exists a buyer for which even the Gol may be too large: little people.
With this in mind, VW Brazil has built the Mini-Gol, a little car for little people. The Mini-Gol has been scaled down by about 30-percent–overall length is down to 7.4 feet from 12.8–to better fit the proportions of a driver who’s under 5 feet tall. Inside, the dashboard, instrumentation, and seating all remain intact, albeit with a proportional downsizing to match the scale of the exterior and would-be driver.

Ferrari 340 Competizione is one super cool concept car
Although it hasn’t been produced yet the Ferrari 340 Competizione is going to be the master piece of all Ferrari’s ever created, if it ever gets green-lighted for production that is. The one-off Ferrari F-340 Competizione, coach-builder Gullwing America’s latest project, was conceived as an homage to the legendary 1952 Ferrari 340 Mexico Berlineta. Just three of those 1952 racers were made, and were designed specifically to battle the grueling Carrera Panamericana. Based on a 456 Ferrari platform and rebodied in handformed aluminium, the bodywork and muscular styling of the 2011 version makes for an aggressive, jaw-dropping statement.

To be more precise this car concept, can offer real time customization of visual content on the exterior and also on the interior of the car; for instance if you want to impress your neighbors you can use the touchscreen of your car – that’s actually the exterior of the car, and simply set a beautiful landscape as the background of your car! Truly amazing i know, but let’s take a look at how the car actually looks like:

Sport car of the day: TVR Sagaris
Built by the British manufacturer TVR in their factory in Lancshire, Sagaris is an amazing sport car that made debut its debut it 2003 at the MPH03 Auto Show. In 2005 the production model was released for public sale at TVR dealerships around the world. Based on the TVR T350, the Sagaris was designed with endurance racing in mind.
Several design features of the production model lend themselves to TVR’s intentions to use the car for such racing. The multitude of air vents, intake openings and other features on the bodywork allow the car to be driven for extended periods of time on race tracks with no modifications required for cooling and ventilation.
The final production model came with several variations from the pre-production show models e.g. the vents on the wings are filled in, different wing mirrors, location of the fuel filler and bonnet hinges. There are other subtle differences as well.
As with all modern TVRs the Sagaris ignores the European Union guideline that all new cars should be fitted with ABS and at least front airbags because Peter Wheeler believed that such devices promote overconfidence and risk the life of a driver in the event of a rollover, which TVRs are engineered to resist. It also eschews electronic driver’s aids (such as traction control or electronic stability control).
The car’s name comes from the sagaris, the Greek name of a lightweight battle-axe used by the Scythians which was feared for its ability to penetrate the armor of their enemies. The car was designed by Graham Browne and Lee Hodgetts.
In 2008, TVR unveiled the Sagaris 2, which was designed to replace the original Sagaris. In the prototype revealed, there were minor changes to the car including a revised rear fascia and exhaust system, and modifications to the interior.
The 2010 film The Heavy features a black TVR Sagaris driven by Gary Stretch.
The only Racing TVR Sagaris raced in the 2011 British GT Cup series and was entered by Team Winstanley and driven by Danny Winstanley, this racing TVR Sagaris had a standard factory road Sagaris chassis but was fitted with the upgraded 420 bhp TVR 4.5 Supersport Speed Six engine, in it’s first season it recorded wins at Oulton Park and Brands Hatch.
