1966 Maserati Mistral 3.7 Spyder.

The Maserati Mistral is a 2-seat gran turismo produced by Italian car manufacturer Maserati between 1963 and 1970. The successor to the 3500 GT, it was styled by Carrozzeria Frua and bodied by Maggiora of Turin. A total of 828 coupés and 125 Spyders were built.

Iso Grifo Targa Series II (1 of 4). 

Renzo Rivolta was an omnipresent industrialist and serial innovator. Tracing his manufacturing roots to before World War II, he built everything from refrigerators to scooters before the sale of his Isetta bubble car venture to German giant BMW. The proceeds of the deal launched Iso Rivolta as a car manufacturer proper, with its eponymous Bertone-styled four-seat coupé arriving in 1962, followed three years later by the sportier Grifo.Styled by Bertone’s Giorgetto Giugiaro and engineered by Giotto Bizzarrini, the new model was a gran turismo in every sense and a true competitor to the Ferrari Daytona and Maserati Ghibli. But like the Rivolta—and very unlike its rivals from Emilia Romagna—the Grifo was powered by an American V-8. Simple, rugged and powerful, Chevrolet’s 5.4-litre small block was rated at 300 horsepower, offering performance to match Bertone’s eye-catching coachwork.By 1968, the 186-mph 7-Litri arrived, propelled by Chevrolet’s famed “L71” Tri-Power V-8. Things only got better two years later with the debut of the Series II, which brought with it more refined styling with stunning and contemporary hide-away headlamps—not to mention the option of the Bowtie’s 7.4-litre big-block V-8, which was fine-tuned with forged connecting rods and dry-sump lubrication.Due to eye-watering cost, just four Series II cars left the factory with open-topped Targa coachwork; chassis 350 is one of these special examples. The car was built on 4 July 1971, specified with a reinforced chassis frame and 300-horsepower 5.7-litre Chevrolet V-8 mated to a five-speed ZF manual gearbox and 3.31:1 rear axle. The car was also fitted with factory air conditioning.

Old but gold: 1965 OSI 1200 Granluce Coupé

This classy and rare car is a 1965 OSI 1200 Gran Luce (Tipo 103G) based on the FIAT 1200 engine and chassis, offered by its 90 years old lady who can no longer drive it. This coupé, one of only 70 ever built by Officine Stampaggi Industriali, is completely original, including the black plates, with a few areas needing care. The car has been well-maintained over the years, but after sitting idle…

Plymouth constructeur automobiles Américain fondée en 1928

Plymouth a écoulé près de neuf millions d'unités de sa série « standard » baptisée Plaza, Savoy, Belvedere puis Fury et Gran Fury.

Plymouth était une marque de voitures fabriquée par Chrysler Corporation aux États-Unis. Ils ont cessé de fabriquer des voitures Plymouth le 29 juin 2001. La première voiture Plymouth a été fabriquée le 7 juillet 1928. Chrysler voulait une voiture moins chère pour concurrencer Chevrolet et Ford. Les Plymouth coûtent un peu plus cher que leurs concurrents, mais incluaient plus de fonctionnalités comme les freins hydrauliques. Au début, seuls les concessionnaires Chrysler vendaient des Plymouth.

Le constructeur a commencé avec l'auto Maxwell. Chrysler a pris Maxwell-Chalmers dans les années 20 et a créé la voiture Chrysler en utilisant leurs installations. Ensuite, ils ont créé une voiture compagnon moins chère, le "52" rebaptisé "Chrysler-Plymouth Model Q" en 1928. Lorsque le Model U a été introduit en 1929, le nom "Chrysler" a été abandonné. Les modèles des années 80 Les modèles des années soixante ont des moteurs allant jusqu'à 6 276 cm3 et un nouveau style de carrosserie moins massif. En 1960 la Valiant est une compacte plus proche des conceptions européennes.

1989 Plymouth Voyager 3 Concept L'influence des voiture GT en Amérique amène à la présentation du coupé rapide Barracuda en 1965; Doté d'un V8 de 4,5 litres. La gamme de 1966 comprend encore la moyenne Belvedère, la grande Fury et la luxueuse V-8 "V.I.P." à toit ouvrant. La Barracuda redessinée en 1967 et dotée du moteur Six Slamt. La Road Runner atteint la vitesse de 257 km/h en 1968. En 1975, il ne reste plus des trente-huit modèles précédents que les Fury, Valiant et Duster a cause de la crise pétrolière. En 1976, paraît la compacte Volare qui remplace bientôt la Fury. C'est la plus grosse Plymouth en 1979 alors que les Sapporo et Arrow sont des importations Mitsubishi. La mauvaise santé du groupe Dès le début des années 80, la plupart des voitures sont des dérivées de Dodge comme l'Horizon de 1972, la 'Turismo de 1978', la Reliant de 1980, la Gran Fuxy de 1981, la Caravelle de 1984 ou la Sundance de 1986. Dans les années quatre-vingt-dix, Plymouth reste la gamme premier prix de Chrysler. Avec des voitures empruntées à Dodge ou Mitsubishi comme la Colt, la Neon, l'Acclaim ou le monospace Voyager.

1984 Plymouth Voyager Plymouth est donc victime, à partir du milieu des années 1970, de la mauvaise santé du groupe Chrysler en général ! mais les décisions prises au sein de la direction ont encore aggravé plus particulièrement les difficultés de la marque Plymouth. Car si Dodge peut jouer sur la carte jeune et sportive, et Chrysler sur celle du confort et du luxe, l'image de la marque reste floue. Le créneau de la voiture populaire ne ce voit plus approprié car l'embourgeoisement de la clientèle américaine est une évolution constante depuis des années. Les marges sont par ailleurs plus faibles sur les voitures populaires que sur les modèles de moyenne et haute gamme. La nouvelle direction du groupe, qui a évité de peu la catastrophe ! ce voit davantage intéressée par les bénéfices plutôt que par les volumes de production. Dès lors, la survie de Plymouth s'avère délicate. La décision de fusionner les réseaux Plymouth et Chrysler dans les années 1980 va lui donner le coup de grâce.

Así son las cuatro plataformas para vehículos eléctricos de Audi: 20 modelos antes de 2025

Fuente: autonocion.com - Recomendado por Carlos Alberto Mauricio

"A nivel mundial, para 2025, Audi ha anunciado en diversas ocasiones que tendrán nada menos que 30 modelos electrificados, de los cuales, 20 de ellos serán modelos 100% eléctricos. Sin duda alguna, viendo que el futuro pasa por lo electrificado, es una buena noticia, pero, ¿cómo va a hacer la marca de los cuatro aros para en menos de 5 años tener una gama generosa y llena de opciones?

MLB evo: los primeros vehículos eléctricos de Audi

El primer modelo Audi quattro de la década de 1980 fue simplemente llamado «quattro» por su innovadora tecnología de tracción total. De la misma manera, el nombre «e-tron» ha sido empleado para el primer modelo cien por cien eléctrico del fabricante germano.

El Audi e-tron es el primer SUV totalmente eléctrico del fabricante alemán y combina la movilidad eléctrica con las características propias que encontramos en cualquier modelo Audi: un sofisticado sistema de conducción y recuperación, tracción total y la máxima comodidad.

En este caso el modelo hace uso de una versión modificada de la plataforma longitudinal modular (MLB evo) que utilizan una gran variedad de vehículos de la marca. Durante este mismo 2020, el e-tron SUV recibirá a su compañero, el e-tron Sportback, una nueva variante con un perfil de tipo coupé.

J1: la plataforma eléctrica de alto rendimiento

Mostrado como un vehículo conceptual hasta ahora, el Audi e-tron GT muestra cómo evolucionarán los modelos deportivos en la era eléctrica. Para el e-tron GT, Audi comparte sinergias con Porsche, que desarrolló la arquitectura J1.

En este caso hablamos de una plataforma diseñada para albergar dos motores síncronos (PSM) excitados permanentemente que producen casi 600 CV de potencia. Un PSM tiene un rotor con imanes permanentes y un campo magnético interno natural. En un PSM, el rotor se mueve en coordinación con el campo magnético del estator (la parte estacionaria del motor en el que gira el rotor), por lo que se conoce como un motor síncrono excitado permanentemente. En comparación, el rotor de un motor asíncrono, esta gira más lento".

Para conocer más a fondo esta futura innovación, Carlos Alberto Mauricio te invita a seguir leyendo...

My GT Sport Gameplay - Part 15 [Jan 28, 2023]

Hello, hello! Here’s Part 15 of my “Gran Turismo Sport” experience playthrough!🎮🚗

If you haven’t seen my Part 14, as well as “my first ever owned PS4 game by using funds”, then I’ll provide some links down below. ↓

○ Part 14 [Jan 27, 2023]

○ My first ever owned PS4 game [Jan 10th, 2023]

So, without further ado, let’s get started:

1st to 4th screenshots: ↑

• Okay, back again for another round of "Circuit Experience". And as you can see, I choose picked another batch of eight tracks. So, here's my rate chart for Part 14:

Neutral: ○ Dragon Trail - Gardens 🇭🇷 ○ Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix 🇪🇸 ○ Autopolis International Racing Course 🇯🇵

Easy: ○ Tsukuba Circuit 🇯🇵 ○ Autodromo Nazionale Monza 🇮🇹 ○ Fuji Speedway 🇯🇵 ○ Red Bull Ring 🇦🇹 ○ Tokyo Expressway - South Inner Loop 🇯🇵

• So far, I don't have any hard rank tracks from my pick, and that's pretty good for me. 🙂👍 Although, I'm having a slight problem with "Dragon Trail - Gardens", but, thankfully, I managed to do 1 lap without a single retry. So, I gave it a Neutral rank. Also, the "Autopolis" track is new to me, which also I gave it the Neutral rank. And what's my favorite race track of the eight? Mmm... Tough choice, but I picked the "Red Bull Ring". Also, shout out to the "Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix" because I recognized this track from my old PS1 racing game; Formula 1'97. 🙂

5th & 6th Screenshots: ↑

BTW: I made some close calls of obtaining gold for the Dragon Trail - Gardens & the Autopolis track.

And that includes my today’s “Circuit Experience”! Let’s move on to my new car toys! ↓ 🚘😁

7th to 14th Screenshot(s): ↑

• Here are my new cars that I've obtained after finishing eight courses (in all dripped gold 🥇):

○ Ford Mustang Gr. B Rally Car 🇺🇸 (after completing all gold at the Autodromo Nazionale Monza 🇮🇹)

○ Dodge Viper GTS '13 🇺🇸 (after completing all gold at the Tsukuba Circuit 🇯🇵)

○ Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Gr. 4 🇩🇪 (after completing all gold at the Dragon Trail - Gardens 🇭🇷)

○ Lamborghini Huracán GT3 '15 🇮🇹 (after completing all gold at the Fuji Speedway 🇯🇵)

○ Audi TT Coupé 3.2 Quattro' 03 🇩🇪 (after completing all gold at the Red Bull Ring 🇦🇹)

○ Honda Civic Type R '15 (UK) 🇯🇵 (after completing all gold at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix 🇪🇸)

○ BMW M4 Coupe '14 🇩🇪 (after completing all gold at the Tokyo Expressway - South Inner Loop 🇯🇵)

○ Jaguar F-Type Gr. 3 🇬🇧 (after completing all gold at the Autopolis International Racing Course 🇯🇵)

15th Screenshot: ↑

• Finally, today's "daily workout completion" is the Ford Focus Gr. B Rally Car 🇺🇸. Mmmm... Can't wait to drive in dirt beside the Mustang Gr. B. 🙂

16th to 18th Screenshot(s): ↑

• Once again, much like my previous part, I have now double cars on my (digital) garage, including my starter car, the Honda Civic Type R (UK). I'm starting to get deja vu, here. 🤔 But, I digress...

Anyway, let's move on to the "GT League". 🙂🏁🏆

19th & 20th Screenshots: ↑

• My today’s GT League races are "The Passion of Dr. Wankel" (for Mazda rotary cars) & "Tourist Trophy" (for Audi TT cars). The 1st race I take on is like walking in the park (with Clean Race & Handicap Bonuses) 🚶‍♂️🌳, but the latter is when I switched to "serious" mode 🎮😠. On the 2nd race of "Tourist Trophy" (Dragon Trail - Seaside reversed), I was struggling to reach the leader pole, and my qualified car's horsepower didn't have the strength to chase. 🙁 So, I have to quit the race & tweak the HP settings just a little pinch before I go for another race. 🔧⚙️🚘 However, I ended up in 2nd place 🥈, so I have to tweak more & race again. So yeah, I finally beat the race by tuning my qualified car.

• However, for my 3rd race (Nürburgring Nordschleife) of the aforementioned "Tourist Trophy" I decided not to used this car, and this is the moment where I purchased my first car in GT Sport.

My first recorded video from PS4 Pro (with 21st to 23rd screenshots): ↑

• I went to the Audi dealership in the Europe section of "Brand Central" to buy the Audi TTS Coupe '14 as my achievement trophy for "My First Car". Pretty neat! 😊🏆After that, I'm ready to continue my Tourist Trophy race! Overall, I'm wiping 'em all with a "Clean Race Bonus" 🧹🏁🏎️, including one "Handicap Bonus" from using the other car before. ⬆️🏎️ Plus, I nailed the Nürburgring Nordschleife's (Race 3) "Green Hell" long course without bumps, bruises, or out the tight track! 😃

My GT Sport’s Scapes - 20th & 21st photos: ↑

• Here are the ff. cars I used (with selected locations):

For the "The Passion of Dr. Wankel" race: ○ Mazda RX500 '70 🇯🇵 (location: Underground Discharge Channel - Kasukabe, Saitama Prefecture, Japan 🇯🇵)

For the "Tourist Trophy" race: ○ Audi TTS Coupe '14 & Audi TT Coupé 3.2 Quattro '03 🇩🇪 (location: Konzerthaus Berlin, Berlin, Germany 🇩🇪)

• The so-called ✌️"other car"✌️ that I refer to was the Audi TT Coupé 3.2 Quattro '03. It put out of the fight at the Northern Isle Speedway (where I claimed the "Handicap Bonus") & the Dragon Trail - Seaside II (reversed), but sometimes, speed wasn't enough against the TTS Coupe. But hey, big props for the 1st gen TT coupe though! 😊👍

24th to 26th Screenshot(s) + Overall: ↑

• I made huge progress in GT Sport, with eight tracks covered in gold in the "Circuit Experience" 🛣️🥇, and an intense race 🚘🏁🚘 at the "Tourist Trophy" in the "GT League's" amateur league. More importantly, I got 91% of my campaign. As only (last) eight courses left in the "Circuit Experience", hoping I could take out these, in the coming weeks. And once I'm done, I'm onto the "Lewis Hamilton Time Trial Challenge" (after purchasing it using my PSN wallet).😁

Riya 🐰🏎️: Aww yeah! You did a great job tackling TT coupes (no innuendo relation) & earning golds! 😁👍

Spot 🐶🏎️: Heck yeah! And hey, we've got ourselves another clone cars! I'll have the cool Viper GTS 2013 car, pls?! Thanks so much! 😊🚘

Miya 🐰🐻🔋: Oooow, that Lambo Huracan looks sick to drive! And you know, I am HUGE fan of Italian supercars! 😁

Bonn 🐰🚹: Me too, Miya. We can't wait to see the Huracan GT3 in action! Now, how's your driving with the VW Vision GT car? 🙂

Miya 🐰🐻🔋: Gnarly! Now, I want test drive with the Huracan GT3 car! Ladies first! 😁🚘

Bonn 🐰🚹: Be careful, Miya! That Huracan GT3 is too fast the other car you've drove! 😧

Riya 🐰🏎️: Miya will be fine, paps. 🙂

Spot 🐶🏎️: Yeah, she can handle it, to the max! 😁

Bonn 🐰🚹: And, how do you know about that? 🤔

Spot 🐶🏎️ & Riya 🐰🏎️: Since 7 before we're depature to the U.S. 😃

Bonn 🐰🚹: Huh... Okay. 🤔 Anyways, we can't to see our creator's next GT Sport journey. In the meanwhile, I'll go drive with other cars that he claimed.🙂

Riya 🐰🏎️: Oooow, can we try the Jaguar F-Type GT3 car, paps? I'll go sit in the passenger. 😊🚘

Bonn 🐰🚹: Sure thing, sweetie. Hop on! 😊

Riya 🐰🏎️: Alright! Hey, Spot! Follow us! 😁

Spot 🐶🏎️: Yeah! yeah! 😄🚘
