While at the Philadelphia Auto Show this year, one of the cars we saw the most of the was the Ford Mustang. One of the most popular American cars ever made, the Mustang has changed a lot since it first came out. Still true to its roots, however, the 2010 Mustang was a hit at this years auto show. At Empirecovers.com, you have find tons of different covers and accessories for your or a loved one’s Mustang.
Last Tuesday, Empirecovers.com went to the Philadelphia Auto show to check out the latest and greatest the auto industry has to offer in 2010. The following blogs are going to highlight some of the different vehicles that were on display. Overall, the car show had many different cars in all shapes, sizes, and MPGs. Yes, MPGs seems to be the top priority of the Auto companies, according to the concept cars and new models on the floor. Some of the new models were electric cars, which require a plug in for electricity. Others were hybrids that a more sophisticated than their predecessors. Some of the most impressive cars included Dodge’s new Challenger and the Corvette Sting Ray.
With the muscle car bandwagon in full swing Dodge’s new take on the old Challenger has Mopar fans all over reminiscing over the good old days and running out to buy their limited edition Vanishing Point Dvds. With classic styling and the option for a huge 6.1L Hemi V8 under the hood connected to a 6spd manual gearbox this modern day muscle has a chance to take a good chunk of sales from it’s Mustang and Camaro counterparts. The car covers are off and the new challengers are ready to hit the streets!
This car is definitely not “All Show” with “No Go”. The owners of this car regularly take it to the track and put this beautiful BMW M3 car through its paces. If you look closely you can see that they even drove this vehicle to the show on winter sport tires. A good car cover and some quality cleaning products can keep your daily driver as nice as this!
The best way to describe Nissan’s new “Cube” is in the name! This new SUV puts a direct target on the back of the Toyota owned Scion Xb. This new boxy four door has softer styling than the toaster styled Xb and could prove to be quite popular with the younger crowd. This new said to be “Cartoon” like ride, needs custom floormats with fun floormat logos to go with the look!
This 1956 Jaguar D type was a very successful racing design. Combined with a strong engine it gave the British made Jaguar victories at LeMans 3 years running from 55-57. This particular car at the show finished 3rd in the Sebring 12 Hour race. This piece of motor sport history is hopefully kept under a car cover!
Here is one American muscle classic that would need one crazy custom car cover if an owner didn’t have it parked in a museum or private showroom. The Superbird broke records with its wind tunnel design and was eventually banned from NASCAR for the aerodynamic advantages it had over its rivals. Add the aerodynamics with a 440 hemi and this classic can still keep up with the big boys of today. With the cartoon styling and the unmistakable huge rear wing with the trademark Roadrunner decal this classic will always have its place in automotive history.
This new Smart car features Smart Safety (I’ll explain). It was on display at the manufacturer’s booth of tiny automobiles. This vehicle would need a few more pieces before getting to use a Car Cover or some floor mats! The point of this display is to show that even though the new Smart Cars are smaller than a compact Honda Civic, in the event of an accident you won’t end up the size of a compacted soda can! With it’s strong structural integrity it should be a hit with critics and drivers alike.
