Rolls- Royce Phantom VI

The Phantom VI was an ultra-exclusive Rolls-Royce model produced in London at Mulliner Park Ward. It was made from 1968-1991.
Though it had been expressed that the days of motor cars of the like of the Rolls-Royce Phantom V were undoubtedly numbered, in 1968 Rolls-Royce launched the Phantom VI as a logical progression keeping up the high standards set in the past. The Phantom VI had a re-styled facia and was powered by an engine developed from that of the current Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow. An increase in capacity to 6,750 cc in 1979 was coupled with the introduction of a 3-speed automatic transmission instead of the previously employed 4-speed automatic gearbox. This last specimen of a passenger motor car with separate chassis produced by Rolls-Royce was offered until 1991. The chassis used coil springing in front, but used leaf springs in the rear and all round drum brakes.
Most of the bodies were by Mulliner Park Ward usually limousines but a few landaulettes were also made.
A Phantom VII car was discussed in the 1970s, based on the Silver Shadow's body, but plans were dropped. No prototypes were built. So, since a Phantom VII never came to pass, technically Rolls-Royce's latest Phantom model should be called the Phantom VII. Some overseas dealers do indeed refer to it as the Phantom VII.

2007 Car World Series season Champ

The 2007 Champ Car World Series Season is the twenty-ninth Champ Car World Series, however only its fourth season under the Champ Car title. It began on April 8, 2007 and it will end on December 2 after 16 races.
For 2007 Champ Car underwent some major changes. The opening race of the season was switched from the Long Beach Grand Prix to Las Vegas for the first running of the Vegas Grand Prix. The Long Beach Grand Prix was the second race of the season, followed by the Grand Prix of Houston. Also, the entire schedule will be held on road and street courses, and the events will be timed races instead of races for a set number of laps. The full 2007 schedule was announced on Wednesday, September 27, 2006.
Champ Car officials confirmed that Panoz would be the sole chassis supplier for Champ Car for the three years beginning in 2007. The Panoz DP01 will be built by sister company Élan Motorsport Technologies and will be powered by a turbo-charged Cosworth engine. The new formula is reported to significantly lower the costs of competing in the series, which was in turn expected to increase car counts for the 2007 Champ Car season. However, 2007 entries have not exceeded those of 2006.
ESPN has announced a new, multiyear agreement that will mark the return of the Champ Car World Series to the network in 2007.
On January 16, 2007, Champ Car announced their return to Europe, for the first time since 2003, with races scheduled for September 2, 2007 at the TT Circuit Assen in the Netherlands, and September 9, 2007 at the historic Zolder circuit in Belgium.
On January 23, 2007, Champ Car unveiled its new logo for the Champ Car World Series and the Atlantic Series. According to its website, it is a sleeker design with the new Panoz DP01 chassis on the right with an emphasis on a chicane-style layout, representing the street track racing that dominates Champ Car.

2007 Bugatti Veyron

HIGHS Everything—highest power, highest speed, quickest acceleration, most exclusivity of anything on the road; interior sets new standard for all-around opulence in supercars.		LOWS You can’t even afford to dream about it, possible special edition might relinquish it to only second-fastest street car ever.
WHAT'S NEW No changes for 2007.		BEHIND THE WHEEL Surprisingly docile for 1001 horsepower, until you hit the gas and black out.
CAPSULE REVIEW Arguably the most outrageous car ever built, the Veyron can go 253 mph, costs about $1,250,000, and has 1000 horsepower from a quad-turbo 16-cylinder engine. Everything about it is over the top. Warren Buffet probably wouldn't like it, but Larry Ellison would.

2007 Chevrolet Silverado

The 2007 Chevrolet Silverado structure is impressively rigid, with a perception of vault-like strength, helping the suspension to deliver a smooth, well-controlled ride on pavement and rutted dirt roads alike. The big Chevy also stops and corners very well, both by the numbers and by the feel of the brake pedal and steering wheel.

The Chevy V8, is now in its second half-century of delivering usable power, providing a strong combination of performance, fuel economy, and refinement. The interior is attractive, practical, and more than roomy enough. Towing and carrying capacities are at the top of the class.

2oo7 Buick Riviera Concept

The standard engine for the A5 will be Audi's 4.2-liter FSI V8 . At least that much power if not more. Three different transmissions will be offered — manual, automatic and DSG — which will all send power through Audi's Quattro all-wheel-drive system.
The Audi A5 will feature a revamped design that moves the engine farther back so it sits directly over the front axle. This will not only give the A5 better balance,but will allow Audi to meet pedestrian crash safety standards without resorting to ridiculously ill-proportioned front-end designs.
Sales of the 2008 Audi A5 are expected to begin in Europe by the summer of 2007 with U.S. sales getting under way in the fall and a cabriolet version will follow about a year later.
