#Mazda X-5 R-Sport

[hirocimacruiser]

Savanna RX-7

The new RX-7 is equipped with a variety of cutting-edge technologies, including a new turbo engine, achieving 205ps/6500rpm. In addition, the weight has been reduced thoroughly by using a lot of lightweight parts such as aluminum. Please pay attention to the "lightness" of the car, with a power-to-weight ratio of 6.09kg/ps (GT-X), which determines the driving performance. In addition, a jet black body color, Perfect Black, has been newly added to the coupe series. All of this is to share the joy of driving with RX-7 pilots.

Mazda Announces X-5 R-Sport Special Edition

As the world’s best-selling two-seater roadster enters its fourth decade on sale, Mazda UK has revealed the R-Sport special edition. Limited to just 150 examples, this stand-out MX-5 Convertible will feature free-of-charge Polymetal Grey metallic paint and a grey soft-top hood, while 16-inch RAYS gunmetal alloy wheels finish the unique exterior look of this special edition.

The Polymetal Grey color is a new edition to the 2020 Mazda MX-5 line up and on the R-Sport it is matched to piano black wing mirrors, while inside the R-Sport features burgundy Nappa leather seats with silver stitching, ensuring the interior has the same bespoke feel as the exterior. Based on the 1.5-litre 132ps Skyactiv-G Sport trim MX-5, the MX-5 R-Sport is the latest example of Mazda UK’s long tradition of offering personalized limited volume MX-5s.

Customers can register their interest in the £27,700 Mazda MX-5 R-Sport online now and UK deliveries will begin once the current retail restrictions come to an end. Commenting on the Mazda MX-5 R-Sport, Mazda Motors UK, Managing Director, Jeremy Thomson said: “I’m delighted that we can offer an exclusive MX-5 Convertible model to our customers. With it joining the rest of the Convertible and RF models in the line-up, we now have a great choice of MX-5s in our updated 2020 Mazda MX-5 range, which means that anyone wanting to drive a distinctive and stylish roadster can find what they need.”

Based on the 1.5-litre Sport, the R-Sport’s standard equipment tally includes navigation, Apple CarPlay  and Android AutoTM, cruise control, heated seats and climate control. In addition to the R-Sport, the updated 2020 Mazda MX-5 range features a 10-model line-up - four Convertibles and six RFs - the 132ps 1.5-litre Convertible is offered in SE-L and Sport trim, while the 184ps 2.0-liter Skyactiv-G engine is matched to Sport Tech and the new range-topping GT Sport Tech trim. As with the Convertible, SE-L and Sport trim RF’s are powered by the 1.5-litre engine, while Sport Tech and GT Sport Tech come with the more powerful 2.0-litre engine. In addition, 2.0-liter RFs in both trim levels come with the option to choose an automatic gearbox.

New for the 2020 Mazda MX-5, the GT Sport Tech flagship model is marked out by 17-inch BBS alloy wheels and Burgundy Nappa leather seats, while across the whole range the MX-5 is available with Polymetal Grey Metallic paint for the first time. The updated version of Mazda’s sports car also benefits from extra standard safety equipment: from Sport models and above, the MX-5 features Front Smart City Brake Support, Lane Departure Warning System, Rear Smart City Brake Support, Traffic Sign Recognition and Driver Attention Alert. While Blind Spot Monitoring System with Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Adaptive LED headlights and a reversing camera are standard on Sport Tech and GT Sport Tech models.

As you’d expect for a car so famed for its dynamic abilities, the 2020 Mazda MX-5 R-Sport retains the same award-winning chassis and mechanical set up as the 1.5-liter Sport MX-5. And helped by the MX-5’s lightness, performance hasn’t come at the cost of efficiency, as fully homologated to the WLTP/RDE test cycle and equipped with Mazda’s i-ELOOP and i-stop kinetic recovery and stop-start technology as standard it emits 142g/km.

I doubt there are any resources, as rules change with brands, so here’s my Average Automotve Alphanumerical Guesswork Guide (or AAAGG), with general rules, examples, and guesswork tips, and more conversation-oriented glossary and enthusiast etiquette

GENERAL RULES!

So, alphanumerically named cars usually have a digit or letter indicating size...

- Audis, bar rare exceptions, are just called A[number], or Q[number] if SUVs, with the A1 being smaller than the A2 and so on

- Mazdas have a similar rule, with just numbers (e.g. 2, 3, 6), CX-[number] for crossovers, MX-[number] for “Mazda Xperiments” like the MX-5 y’all call Miata, and *sniff* RX-[number] cars, which *starts crying uncontrollably* WHY DID THEY HAVE TO LEAVE US, GOD?!

- Mercedes models start with a letter that (bar off-roaders) is further down the alphabet the larger the model, so the C class is shorter than the E class

- BMW models’ starting digit indicates the size, since lately they have coupes (or faux coupes) use even numbers and sedans use odd ones, so the 3 series is a sedan, its coupe version is a 4 series, the 5 series is a larger sedan. Its SUVs are just X[number]

...and often digits for engine size in cc...

- A mercedes C class won’t have a “C class” badge, it’ll have the badge for its specific engine size (so if it’s a 2000cc it’ll be a C200)

- Same for a 3 series, that will be even more specific and show the fuel too (so a 320d will be a 3 series with a 2000cc diesel) and 4WD if it has it (so a 320xd will be the 4WD version of the 320d)

...and a sporty division that’s either placed after or fucks the naming scheme up

- Audi S (sporty I guess) and RS (real fucken sporty) models will start with S or RS instead of A (so S3 or RS3 rather than A3)

- BMW models will start with an M, and will maintain the naming scheme in sporty I guess models and just keep the series number in real fucken sporty models (e.g. M340i is sporty I guess, M3 is real fucken sporty)

- Mercedes models will add AMG as a suffix and take a digit out the engine size numbers (e.g. you have a C220 but a C63 AMG)

- Fiat has a sport division called Abarth but unlike most believe it actually replaces the brand (e.g. there’s no Fiat 500 Abarth, that’s an Abarth 500)

- Mazda does a similar thing with its Mazdaspeed division (so sporty Mazda 3 = Mazdaspeed 3)... *starts crying again* OR AT LEAST DID *sobs* WHY GOD, WHYYYYY

- Honda’s sporty I guess models use the suffix Si (spelt, not pronounced), and its real fucken sporty models use the suffix Type R (e.g. you wanna fuck with a Civic, evaluate fucking with a Civic Si, do not fuck with a Civic Type R)

GUESSWORK TIPS!

- As specified, larger numbers either indicate a larger car or a larger engine, either way usually larger number = more car

- Same goes for letters further down the alphabet

- Names or letters after the name, aside from BMWs (as explained above) usually indicate version/trim level. If someone bothers to include them they’re likely talking about a sporty (usually with aggressive names like Demon or letters GT, R or S) or electric (usually featuring E) version

- Depreciation is very much a thing, so don’t assume any car with a fancy badge will have cost 50k+. You can actually get BMWs for three digits if you look hard enough

- Miatas are cool. People believing otherwise are usually a bit stuck up.

GLOSSARY!

- More or less, two doors = coupe, three/five doors = hatchback, four door = sedan, five door version of a sedan = station wagon

- It counts as a door if it has hinges, metal and glass. So if a car has two passenger doors and the rear windshield opens with the trunk, it’s a three door.

- The difference between a five-door hatchback and a wagon is like love: lots of controversy on the definition (some look at the number of side windows and the roofline), but you know it when you see it.

- Horsepower measures the engine power (small to midsize cars go from 100 to 250, 300+ is what normal people start to call “scary”), torque does too but in a more “how much can it pull” way (400+ is impressive in things not made to tow)

- Weight determines if that engine power will actually make the car go fast. A Mini (some 2700 lbs) with 300hp is a riot. An Escalade (some 7000lbs) with 300hp will barely move.

- What wheels the engine is actually connected to depends on the car. FWD is cheaper to implement and saves cabin space but struggles to handle high power, so is usually reserved to small/low power cars and their sporty versions. RWD tends to be considered more fun and engaging so it’s a preference in sportscars and driving-focused sedans (like BMWs and sporty Mercs), and also allows you to do “drifting”,

Which is considered very fun. AWD provides the most grip and is thus the favorite of rally cars, high-powered versions of small cars, and executive rockets like sportier Audis.

- Turbocharger and supercharger are two different ways to cram more air into the engine, which makes it able to put more fuel in too, which makes it kaboom harder and make more power. A turbo/supercharged engine is thus more powerful. Some people prefer to just have a bigger engine due to things like “character”.

ENTHUSIAST ETIQUETTE!

- Similar subjective reasons like style and character make many older cars fascinating to enthusiasts, so consider that to them an older car tends to be more, not less, interesting (thus avoid remarks like “You like that? But it so old!”, at most just say you prefer newer cars).

- Guesswork if you need to (or aren’t interested enough to ask), but if you want to be sure ask (e.g. “So, like, that’s the sportier version, right?”). Car guys hate and clown on people who pretend to know more than they actually do.

- If you actually want to talk about cars (because faking interest is never a good idea), better questions than “What’s your favorite car?” are “Any particular types/eras you’re into?” “Any favorite brands?” or “What makes you passionate about them?”, also, make sure they’re aware of what gets lost on you.

- Apparently this needs explaining: don’t criticize someone’s own/favorite car. You don’t get in someone’s house and go “This is so small, how do you live here???”, do you. It’s like saying “It’s just a car” in any circumstance that isn’t a no-casualties accident: it’s just a way to say “I don’t understand what makes this special to you and think myself wiser for it”.

Sorry but how do people know about cars. There are like 400000 different types of cars and they all look the same. How is anyone able to tell them apart and be like “ah a 2007 Dodge Antelope Duster, good engine but the wheels go vroom vroom too hard.” Like what are they saying, what is there to say

5 Coolest New Japanese Cars Coming Out In 2022

1. Toyota Mirai

The Toyota Mirai is a fuel cell vehicle. This means that instead of gasoline, diesel, or electricity, it runs on hydrogen and can reach up to 402-miles on one tank. Toyota will gift you a $15,000 voucher or free hydrogen for 3 years at the time of purchase; after which time it will cost about $100 to fill up your tank. The Mirai is a distinguished gentlemen-like cruiser with an elaborate design and futuristic interior but unfortunately no interest in performance although this hydrogen-powered car may prove otherwise.

2. Acura NSX Type S

The Type S variant of the Acura NSX is one of the most popular high-end sports cars because of its beautiful design, excellent V6 engine that produces 600 hp, and it's low price for those who want to feel like a racing pro. This unique car happens to have a sturdy body frame of 1705 kg and has a mid-engine design with rear wheel drive. It has an aggressive appeal and it’s capable of reaching speeds up to 60mph in only 2.5 seconds!

More Information : Amazing cars info Details

3. Toyota GR Corolla Hatch

The GR Corolla has had a drastic makeover, and even with its competitors like the Honda Civic Type R and BMW 3 Series Racing version, this car is sure to stand out thanks to its unique and superior design. It should feature a 1.8L VVTi engine capable of producing 325 horsepower, and considering the fact that both it and its older sibling are all-wheel drive, we think Takuhito Yokota will be confident in being able to beat his rivals at their own game. We're unsure when the vehicle will launch just yet as news on it has been rather sparse since it was announced last year - although we hope to see it within the next twelve months!

4. Mazda 6

The new Mazda3 actively surprised all petrolheads. Therefore, the Mazda 6 has some big feet to fill. Even though it will ditch its predecessor’s FWD drivetrain and will swap for an engaging RWD one instead; the sleek Mazda 6 won’t entirely neglect on offering buyers the option of a classic 4-stroke gas, turbodiesel, or even Skyactiv-X spark-controlled compression ignition. The prices though will be both, from about $40,000, and we cannot wait to see if it can actually give its German rivals a run for its money!

5. Acura Integra

Acura unleashed a teaser of their new car, the 2019 Acura ILX, and fans were definitely frightened. Given the appearance of an old Integra, many people assumed that its successors would be a modernized facelift of that particular vehicle in the production line. However, our fears were soon put to rest by Acura's recent unveiling of the 2019 ILX’s design which showed its striking resemblance to another Japanese Honda acquisition in 2017 when they bought out the bulk of Hino Motors transporters. So, what can we anticipate from this vehicle? Some performance versions such as:

Cars For Sale: South Africa’s Best 

A bit of a throwback, but herewith are the semi-finalists of the 2019/20 Cars.co.za Consumer Awards – powered by WesBank.

The awards programme recognises the best purchasing propositions in the respective categories of the new vehicle market.

“Vehicle purchases are amongst the biggest that consumers are likely to make in their lifetime,” said Ghana Msibi, executive head of sales and marketing at WesBank.

“Initiatives such as this offer credible opinions on the types of cars and features available in the market, and in so doing help consumers make informed decisions when choosing a new or used vehicle,” he said.

The 13 eventual category winners will be selected from the list of 65 vehicles, which includes model derivatives from 24 brands represented in the South African market.

All vehicles available on the South African market on September 1, 2019, were eligible, not only new products that were launched during the past 12 months.

Compared with the 2018/19 Cars Awards, the executive sedan category has been replaced with one that caters for premium-positioned crossovers.

The former Hot Hatch category (now named Fun Hatch) encompasses more affordable contenders and the price caps for the Premium SUV and Performance Car segments have been raised, it said.

“It is important to note that we analyse market changes proactively and adapt the categories to be better aligned with the South African consumer,” said Cars.co.za consumer experience manager Hannes Oosthuizen.

“With no new contenders in the Executive Sedan category, as well as very poor sales in that segment, we saw it fit to create a new category (to reflect growth and interest in upmarket crossovers) instead.

“Meanwhile there have been no new launches in the traditional hot hatch category, but there has been activity at a lower price point, so we’ve created a new category called Fun Hatch.”

And given the rapidly rising prices of cars for sale in Johannesburg, Oosthuisen said that sticking to a R1-million barrier for Premium SUV and Performance Car categories is no longer practical.

Volkswagen lead the charge in 2019/2020 again.

Even though 24 brands’ vehicles feature in the list of 65, five marques have more than three semi-finalists in the running for category honours.

Volkswagen has the most representatives (8), followed by BMW (6) and Audi, which has 5, although the A1 Sportback 40TFSI S Line is notably a semi-finalist in two separate categories.

Ford (5) and Toyota (4) round out the major manufacturers.

2020 Mazda3 Long-Term Arrival: Kind of Grown-Up

Our new long-term 2020 Mazda3 hatchback proves we’re not quite ready to accept the automaker’s change of course. In case you’ve missed the news, Mazda is looking to focus less on its sporty and fun image and more on its new path to becoming a legit luxury brand. The new Mazda3 is the first official effort from the automaker’s pivot. That said, we’re having a tough time completely erasing away Mazda’s fun, zoom-zoomy image. Which is why we ordered our Polymetal Gray Metallic hatchback with the fancy Premium package—and a six-speed manual transmission. We think it’s a fair compromise.

The manual gearbox’s take rate will be low—about 3 percent, by Mazda’s estimates. But those brave few will be rewarded with a much more engaging driving experience that only three pedals can provide. A 2.5-liter four-cylinder rated at 186 hp and 186 lb-ft of torque is the sole engine choice for the Mazda3, and it feels much peppier with the manual (and its taller first gear) compared to the optional six-speed automatic. The leather gear shifter is satisfying to operate, and the brake and accelerator pedals are spaced well enough to execute your frisky heel-toe urges. Overall, it’s a solid manual gearbox.

Some staffers lament that the new Mazda3 has lost some of its sporty bite we’ve admired in the previous-gen version. And although that might be true at limit handling, I’m quite happy with how the new 3 carries itself around town and through the twisties. And besides, most Mazda3 owners aren’t aspiring to reach 1.0 g lateral acceleration on their way to Church’s Chicken.

So with that in mind, my year with the new 3 will focus on how well it gets me though my daily slog on Interstate 405 and weekend road trips. A long list of features should keep me busy and entertained. When it comes to tech, our Mazda3 packs adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, a head-up display, a large and clear 8.8-inch infotainment screen, and Apple CarPlay. Other standout features include LED headlights that swivel in the direction you’re turning, a powerful Bose sound system, sunroof, and rain-sensing windshield wipers. Meanwhile, the interior is a sharp mix of red leather seats, knurled switchgear, and metal speaker covers that wouldn’t look out of place in a Mercedes-Benz. With all these goodies, our Mazda3 somehow manages to come in below $30,000—$28,420, to be exact. A base model Mazda3 hatchback is about $4,000 cheaper and is also impressively equipped; oddly enough, though, it can’t be paired with a manual transmission (same goes for the midlevel Preferred package). If we were to cross-shop our long-termer, we’d be looking at a Volkswagen GTI and perhaps the 2020 Honda Civic Sport Touring hatchback, which is now available with a manual transmission.

I’ll have plenty of other things to observe in future updates. Since this is a hatchback, I’m eager to see how practical and spacious the rear passenger and cargo areas will be. Can the 3 coddle me like a luxury car should on a long drive to San Francisco? And with gas prices on the rise in California, we’ll observe how close it can get to the EPA’s rating of 25/35 mpg city/highway.

Porsche 911 Turbo S: 3rd Place – 2017 Motor Trend Best Driver’s Car

Long the performance flagship of the Porsche 911 line, the Turbo S adds a healthy dose of crazy. Rather than mess with success, this 991.2 iteration tackles the only criticism of the previous Turbo S: It wasn’t wild enough. Some will feel even this version is too sterile; they’re nuts. Porsche fitted two new variable-geometry turbos to the 3.8-liter flat-six engine, which now conjures 580 hp and 516 lb-ft of torque—or 553 lb-ft in temporary overboost. An anti-lag system keeps the throttle open but cuts the fuel during shifts to keep air flowing. Porsche’s PDK dual-clutch automatic transaxle remains, as do the all-wheel-drive system, electronically adjustable shock absorbers, carbon-ceramic brakes, front splitter, and rear wing. A new Sport Response button gives you 20 seconds of on-demand sharper throttle response, and a new rear-wheel steering system sharpens the handling. It’s Best Driver’s Car week! Don’t miss the incredible story of how we chose the 2017 Best Driver’s Car right here, and stay tuned for the World’s Greatest Drag Race, coming soon. The result is the hardest-launching car we’ve ever tested, at 1.26 g of horizontal force. Tesla? Nope. Demon? Nuh-uh. From a stop, this 911 will dust a Bugatti Veyron to 60 mph—just 2.5 seconds. The quarter mile flashes past in a stunning 10.6 seconds, at which point you’ll be traveling at 129.6 mph and pulling hard. It pulls hard in corners, too, registering 1.05 average g on the skidpad and 0.95 average g during a brief 22.9-second figure-eight lap. Stopping the 3,557-pound missile from 60 mph takes only 92 feet. We Say “My litmus test for whether a car has a shot at taking the BDC crown is what I’m doing with my head and shoulders when driving. If I’m cocking my head and leaning into the turns along with the vehicle, I am in sync with my steed. We are one; the man-machine interface is engaged, the singularity has occurred. It happened with the winning McLaren 570S last year. “I’m doing that head tilting, lean in thing whilst carving the canyons in the Turbo S. It is nearly the complete package. So fast and completely unflappable. It’s really hard to find a flaw here. Just so fast. Smooth. Lovely to hear the wastegates dump as you lift throttle and the beats of silence between gearshifts. But yes, a more thrilling sound from the back would be appreciated. Unbelievably fast. It is really a focused tool intended for one purpose: going very fast.” – Ed Loh Read about other 2017 Best Driver’s Car contenders: Ferrari 488 GTB Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 1LE Porsche 718 Cayman S Lexus LC 500 Mercedes-AMG GT R Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport Aston Martin DB11 Nissan GT-R NISMO Mazda MX-5 Miata RF McLaren 570GT “Goose bumps—it’s so easy to handle. Steering is stiff, but it gives you exactly the kind of feedback that you want to feel on a road like this. The sound coming from the engine is superb. Suspension is rigid but comfortable. I felt the confidence to go faster on the corners and push for more. The 911 stands out not only for its handsome looks, but also for that great feeling of confidence that it delivers when you drive on windy roads.” – Miguel Cortina “So, so, so capable on 198. But the trade-off of having such a highly capable car is that it’s quite a bore to drive in normal situations, which is likely how the 911 Turbo will be driven 91.1 percent of the time. It’s really boring on the road. But again, great car to drive hard.” – Erick Ayapana “To me, this is the perfect driver’s car, in that you can do it all: drive for hours and hours on an interstate, then suddenly twist a dial to sport plus, put the hammer down, and the 911 leaps to life, assured, forceful, and pragmatically intense. It is so composed, so nailed down, so very fast, and so full of grip. There is never a hint that something might go awry. It squirts out of the apex and fills you with so much confidence. If you carry too much speed into a corner, lay into the brakes through that entry portion of the curve, and the 911 just tucks in and says, ‘Yeah sure, we got this.’” – Mark Rechtin “My god it’s so capable and so easy. The engine almost feels lazy while piling on the speed. It’s really deceptive how powerful it truly is even at low rpm. It’s amazing how much confidence this car gives a driver. Not just the brakes, but the steering and the stability. The car shrinks around you and becomes an extension of you. I’m looking for a complaint, and I can’t find one.” – Chris Walton “There’s a reason this car is at the top of the rankings in any competition. The 911 Turbo S is so amazingly competent on every level—without having any visible compromises—that it’s easy to forget how high its limits are. Right out of the box, the 911 Turbo S lets you drive as fast as you dare, brake as hard as you can, and turn as much as you wish. It doesn’t just inspire confidence … it inspires a relationship with the driver.” – Derek Powell Randy Says “Yeah, the 911 Turbo S was super great, but it almost seemed a little bit unsatisfying. Somehow? This 991.2 has so much more torque than the last GT3s, any GT3 I ever drove. And it’s just so satisfying to drive. The balance under power is amazing to me. Knowing how little weight is on those tires especially when you’re under about 0.9 g acceleration in second gear, and it doesn’t push under power. This car seems more rewarding to drive to me, and it really … it blows away some great cars. I guess ‘cause it’s easy? But it’s rewardingly easy. It’s not boring; it’s satisfying. It just makes me feel like I could drive better than I really can. I literally said that to myself, driving off of turn 11. “In the slower corners, when the revs are down, there’s no sense of lag whatsoever. I love the way it’ll dig off the corner without understeer. I could go to the power really early, and I’d just know that a lot of cars would want to understeer under this condition. And it doesn’t, it just comes on. Just fascinatingly, thrillingly good. “You have to be just a wee bit careful about entry oversteer. Don’t leave that weight on the nose for too long on a high speed corner. It takes a real specific combination of great on-the-nose, aggressive turn-in, and off throttle to bring the tail out. A couple of times when it came out it still was not scary. It was a pleasant experience. Back to the power, and there you go. I’m just really, really impressed. “With PDKs you’re just wasting your time shifting manually. It might be fun just to do it for the fun of it, but it’s completely unnecessary to shift yourself. The brakes held up completely; even the tires held up. I mean, the loads, what they’re going through is mind-bending. The amount of speed, the amount of braking, and how hard those tires are worked—they still hold up. The car retains its balance. I just seem to be able to repeat my braking performance. I was in so deep a couple times halfway through the brakes I thought maybe I wouldn’t make this. But then it would slow down enough and ride into the apex, and away we’d go. It’s a nice, firm pedal, and that means the braking performance is repeatable. It also made me push it harder. “I don’t feel the rear-steer except that, maybe, it’s my guess that it’s one of the ways they keep the front traction in the middle of the corner when it really shouldn’t have any, but the car responds to the steering wheel in the middle of the corner. Low-speed, high-speed, anything you want. I think I set my speed record over the corkscrew. “It’s a real testament to what’s possible with modern technology when you are creating a sports car and you know what you’re doing. It’s an amazing piece of machinery. A living testament to how good a car can be with the stability control off.” 2017 Porsche 911 Turbo S POWERTRAIN/CHASSIS DRIVETRAIN LAYOUT Rear-engine, AWD ENGINE TYPE Twin-turbo flat-6, alum block/heads VALVETRAIN DOHC, 4 valves/cyl DISPLACEMENT 231.9 cu in/3,800 cc COMPRESSION RATIO 9.8:1 POWER (SAE NET) 580 hp @ 6,750 rpm TORQUE (SAE NET) 516 lb-ft @ 2,100 rpm* REDLINE 7,200 rpm WEIGHT TO POWER 6.1 lb/hp TRANSMISSION 7-speed twin-clutch auto.

You will be surprised The 10 best quality-price cars of 2017

It is possible that you are hunting for one of the new cars 2017 and, as is normal, you have some doubts about which to choose best aftermarket car stereos. Although we have prepared several listings with more than interesting options for you to take home - like the cheapest cars you can buy - sometimes it is better to expand the available spending ceiling a bit ... to perform A choice more in tune with your tastes and needs. And that's just the article you're reading: the best quality-price cars of 2017 . They may not be the cheapest, but we guarantee you are worth every euro they cost.

Yes, it is true that in this selection there is a bit of everything: from some of the vehicles that you could find among the new cars for 15,000 euros very interesting ... until other options more expensive but that have no rival when facing In a table its benefits or fun versus its price. Above all, taking into account that of his rivals. You do not believe it? Start reading and you'll be amazed ...

Renault Twingo

The most urban model of the signature of the diamond has returned to the market with a very different image as interesting as its driving layout: all behind. Yes, you read well: the engine of the car is housed under the floor of the trunk - note: try not to keep tarts in there - and the car is propulsion. It has a starting price of about 11,000 euros ... although its version more fun is known as Renault Twingo GT . Ideal for the city. And to have a laugh once in a while.

Citroën C3 2016

The renovation of one of the banners of the signature of the two chevrons arrives loaded with novelties inherited from the C4 Cactus . The Citroën C3 2016 has copied from its brother of range its muscular image and the solution of the Airbump, the perfect ally to be able to park in battery in a commercial center ... and to be able to buy with something more of tranquility. It can be yours from just over 11,000 euros , which is a cost virtually unanswerable by any of its rivals at this time ...

SEAT León 2017

Do you really need us to tell you why the 2017 Leon is among the best quality-price cars of 2017? This is one of the star models - along with the Ibiza - of the Spanish firm, occupying a position of honor among the most outstanding compact of the market and has been revealed as the biggest threat of VW Golf 2017 ... that has the enemy tucked at home. With a starting price that starts in a modest 15,000 euros , we can not think of better options in this disputed segment.

Skoda Octavia 2017

Attention everyone: we have arrived at the car most hated by the brother-in-law. This is the Skoda Octavia 2017 , a great alternative to the saloons that dominate the market ... for a much lower price and an interior space that seems to defy the laws of physics. Just released new image and can be yours for only 15,500 euros . Yes. What is serious ...

Dacia Lodgy Stepway

Okay, maybe when thinking about a car with a good value for money does not come to your mind the image of a Dacia. And your mind is wrong. In this disputed ranking we have prepared for you today, the choice among the market models with capacity for up to seven occupants has fallen on the model of the Romanian firm, famous for offering vehicles with more than worthy at really reasonable prices. You do not believe it? Try to find a similar new car in the market for the same 16,000 euros of the Lodgy Stepway . Good luck with you!

Opel Mokka X

The relay of one of the most successful models of the lightning signature now launches new name: it is called Opel Mokka X and is a new step -corto- forward of the German mark. It has an image of the most attractive, behaves really well - some say that rotates - and its range of engines is well thought out to meet any need. Unless you need, we do not know, a tractor to start your business of growing eggplants? It can be yours for little more than 16,000 euros if you take the offers well. And you should do it.

Suzuki Jimny

I know you're going to tell us that we took the slightest chance to include our beloved Suzuki Jimny in a ranking, but he's the one who earns it by himself. Is there a real SUV in the market with the same capabilities, practicality, image and, above all, price? No, there is not: it only costs 13,000 euros in its cheapest variant. And it is not money. Point.

Honda Civic Type R

Yes, you may now think that we have started to go head-on, but we have already told you before that among the best quality-price cars of 2017 you would find everything ... and not always looking until the hassle every penny employee. Have you read our Civic Type R test ? This is the current generation of the Japanese model - which in the UK will be fired with the Black Edition - until the new arrival inspired by the Honda Civic Type R Prototype 2017 . It has 310 hp, a brutal image and is the most macarra car you can buy at this time for a price of only 34,900 euros . That is not money. It is not. For real.

Mazda MX-5

We do not think we have to explain too much about this car - here is a comparison of the Mazda MX-5 against the Fiat 124 Spider -: it is nice, small, playful, powerful and there is nothing in the market that offers the same sensations that he For the 25,000 euros that costs its simpler version. You may think a Carterham is more fun. But that has no doors.

Nissan 370Z

Okay, now you can accuse us of losing your head, but if you think about it, you'll lose it too: the Nissan 370Z is one of the funniest sports cars on the market right now, it has a good amount of horses At your service -328 on the rear wheels, of course- , a really breakthrough image and a demolition price: 33,050 euros. Yes, they are only 60 euros more than a Toyota GT86 2017 ... with 128 extra CV. There we left ...

【ピレリスーパー耐久2018】富士では24時間レースもある！「参加型モータースポーツ」スーパー耐久ってどんなレース？

4月1日に鈴鹿サーキットで開催された「SUZUKA S耐 春の陣」で開幕した「ピレリスーパー耐久シリーズ2018」。 SUZUKA S耐 春の陣では52台のマシンが一斉にローリングスタートを切るという大迫力で、年々参加台数が増加傾向にあるスーパー耐久。「参加型モータースポーツ」の国内最高峰といわれるスーパー耐久とは一体どんなレースなのでしょう。 スーパー耐久は現在、参加チームがいないクラスも含めて全部で8クラス。最高峰のFIA-GT3マシンを使ったST-Xクラスから1500cc相当のコンパクトカーを使ったST-5クラスまで、全てのマシンが同じレースを走るというものです。富士スピードウェイの長いストレートではST-XクラスとST-5クラスの速度差は100km/h近くなり、速いクラスは遅いクラスをいかにパスし、また遅いクラスは速いクラスにいかに上手く抜かれるか、という部分も見所のひとつとなっています。 クラス別に見てみると、最も速いクラスのST-XクラスはPORSCHE 991 GT3RやNISSAN GT-R NISMO GT3、AUDI R8 LMSなどSUPER GTでもお馴染みのマシンが走ります。年間エントリーリストでの参加台数は11台となっており、全カテゴリーの中で2番目に参加台数の多いクラスとなっています。 今年からスーパー耐久にニューマシンとして参戦したMAX RacingのLEXUS RC F GT3。このマシンはカーボン地のボディーカウルのまま参戦していますが決して開幕戦にカラーリングが間に合わなかったわけではなく、この無塗装の状態での参戦です。レーシングカーにお決まりのスポンサーロゴは大会指定のもの以��全くありませんが、フロントバンパーやドアに貼られたQRコードをスマホでかざすとチームのサイトが表示されるという、実は凝った内容のカラーリングなのです。 昨年から導入されたST-TCRクラスは世界ツーリングカーカップなどで使用されるマシンを使ったクラスで、4または5ドアの2リッターターボのFF車をベースに開発されたレーシングカーで、いまスーパー耐久で最もホットなクラスとして話題となっています。 HONDA CIVIC TCRやAUDI RS3 LMS、VW GOLF TCRなど年間エントリー台数は8台、開幕戦には7台が参戦と比較的新しいクラスとしては参加台数が多く、今後も増加傾向となっていくクラスです。 開幕戦ではPorsche 911GT3 cupが2台参加というST-1クラス。スーパーカーのワンメイクレースマシンが参加できるクラスですが、このワンメイクレースは国内に限らず海外でのワンメイクレースも対象となり、昨年はスポット参戦でランボルギーニ ウラカンのワンメイクマシンも出場しています。 3500cc相当の4WDまたはFF車が参加するクラスがST-2クラス。このクラスで常勝を誇るSUBARU WRX STIやランサーEVO Xなどの2リッターターボ4WDマシンが戦ってきました。 今シーズンからこのST-2クラスはFF車も編入されることとなり、マツダのアクセラが参戦。このアクセラ、実はディーゼルエンジンのレーシングマシンでタイム的にはライバルには及ばないものの圧倒的な燃費を誇っていることから5月31日～6月3日に開催される富士の24時間レースではかなりのところまで行くのではないかと噂されています。 3500ccの後輪駆動がST-3クラス。このクラスはLEXUS IS350、RC350のレクサス勢とNISSAN フェアレディ Zの8台がしのぎを削る戦いを見せています。 2リッタークラスで戦うのはST-4クラス。年間エントリー台数は14台と、スーパー耐久で一番参加台数の多いクラスとなっており、参加車種もTOYOTA 86、SUBARU BRZ、HONDA INTEGRA、MAZDA ROADSTER(NC)、TOYOTA VITZ GR TURBOなど、実に様々なマシンがしのぎを削ります。 そして一番小さなマシン、1500cc相当のコンパクトカーで戦うのがST-5クラス。HONDA FITⅢ、MAZDA ROADSTER(ND)、MAZDA DEMIOなど10台がエントリー。 台数的にはND型ロードスターが4台、FITⅢが4台、デミオが2台なっており、マツダの台数が多いのが今季の特徴。デミオはガソリンとディーゼルの両方が参戦していますが、昨年の実績ではシリーズ2位とディーゼルのデミオの方が勝っています。   開幕戦の鈴鹿では総合優勝はST-XクラスのY’s distraction GTNET GT-R。ただし表彰やポイントランキングは各クラスごとに行われます。 耐久レースですからピットインがあります。レース時間よって義務となるピットの回数が決められており、開幕戦鈴鹿ではドライバーチェンジを伴うピットインが3回となりました。このピット作業時間やピット回数で��位が大きく変わることもあることから、ピットインのタイミングなどは重要な戦略となります。 参戦マシンがスターティンググリッドにつくためにコースインをするわけですが、スーパー耐久の場合は全車一斉にコースインをします。そのコースインのカウントダウンはピレリスーパー耐久シリーズ公式イメージガール「Fresh Angels」とピレリイメージガールが行います。なぜピレリイメージガールが登場するかといえば、2018シーズンからスーパー耐久で使用されるタイヤはピレリの独占供給となっているからなのです。 SUPER GTなどではレースクイーンがグリッドボードを掲出しますが、スーパー耐久ではサーキットによってはグリッドキッズが登場します。 スーパー耐久は「参加型レース」といわれてはいますが、SUPER GTに参戦するようなプロドライバーも数多く参戦します。SUPER GTではSUBARU BRZ R&D SPORTをドライブする井口卓人選手はST-2クラスのWRX STIで参戦。豊田章男社長もなぜか激励に。そして今年、マッハ車検 MC86 Y’s distractionでSUPER GTデビューをした平木湧也選手はNCロードスターで参戦。 また、「MAX」織戸学さんや「世界の」荒聖治選手など名ドライバーも数多く参加します。 そんなお楽しみ満載なスーパー耐久では今年、いよいよ24時間レースが開催されます。富士スピードウェイで、2018年5月31日（木）～6月3日（日）の4日間開催となるピレリ スーパー耐久シリーズ2018 第3戦「富士SUPER TEC 24時間レース」。スーパー耐久では10年ぶりの24時間レースが富士スピードウェイで開催となることで大きな話題となっています。 ピレリスーパー耐久シリーズは全て観戦していただきたいところですが、その中でも富士の24時間レースは必見と言えるでしょう。 (写真・文：松永和浩) 【関連記事】 【ピレリスーパー耐久2018】欧州そのままの本気バトルで話題のST-TCRクラス。開幕戦の鈴鹿を制したのはModulo CIVIC TCR！ https://clicccar.com/2018/04/06/574805/ 【ピレリスーパー耐久2018】混戦のST-5クラス、NDロードスター優勝でマツダが通算6連勝！ https://clicccar.com/2018/04/06/575263/ 【東京オートサロン2018】富士スピードウェイでスーパー耐久の24時間レースが開催！富士では実に50年ぶり https://clicccar.com/2018/01/16/550956/ 【関連リンク】 スーパー耐久シリーズ 富士SUPER TEC 24時間レース http://www.fsw.tv/motorsports/race/07/ あわせて読みたい * 【WRC2018・第4戦フランス】ターマックでトヨタ・ヤリス2位入賞！タイトル獲得に光明は見えたか？ * 【SUPER GT 2018】真冬の寒さで大ドンデン返し！誰も予想出来なかった開幕戦岡山GT300の結末 * 入場無料！都心最大級のモータースポーツイベントで「Legend of SUBARU」が開催【モータースポーツジ��パン2018フェスティバル イン お台場】 * 【SUPER GT 2018】GT300にやってきたニューカマー、HONDA NSX GT3に迫る！ * リヤラジエターの流行とOSAKA DRIFTでのクラッシュ続出には関係があった!?【D1GP】 http://dlvr.it/QPZTf7

tagged by both @jjongshine and @jeonnguks

a - age: 25 b - biggest fear: Losing the people I love. c - current time: 1:21 PM d - drink you last had: Water f - favorite song: Night of Fire - Niko or Speedy Speed Boy - Marco Polo g - ghosts, are they real: I don’t believe in ghosts specifically, but I do believe in the spiritual/supernatural, so I don’t rule out the possibility that there are spiritual beings out there which I cannot fully comprehend. i - in love with: My family and friends j - jealous of: Sports car owners and performance drivers k - killed someone: Goodness, no. l - last time you cried: When I watched Ryosuke and Ikeda trying to stop Rin’s GT-R. I had so many feelings.  m - middle name: Ruth n - number of siblings: 3 o - one wish: I want to keep myself motivated to go through with my plan of buying a jdm sports car and learning to drift. I know it will take a lot of time, effort, and some luck, so I’m terribly afraid of losing my motivation. I just want to find the courage to follow through with something that I really want to do for myself.  p - person you last called/texted: My dad q - question(s) you’re always asked: I’m always asked questions about my age, because I apparently look at least 5 years younger than I am. I’m often asked my year in college, whether I’m older than 18/21(outside of the context of employees carding me for legal purposes, which I completely understand), etc. People are always very surprised by the answer.  r - reasons to smile: My friends, eurobeat, Initial D, Mazda rx7s, sports (except when your team loses) s - song last sang: When I Close My Eyes - Cherry (in the shower xD) t - time you woke up: 9:00 AM (though I will admit that I didn’t get out of bed until 10).  u - underwear color: Black v - vacation destination: Gunma, Japan!!!  w - worst habit: Once I’ve made up my mind about something, it is very hard for anyone to change my mind about it. While this can be a good trait, in terms of loyalty and steadfastness, I need to learn to be a better listener in situations where I already arrive at the conversation with my own opinion.  x - x-rays you’ve had: Forearm, dental  y - your favorite food: I have too many...top tier are probably: tortellini alfredo, mac & cheese, chicken chimichanga, chicken mahkni, and massaman curry z - zodiac sign: Scorpio
