The 2013 Rolls Royce Wraith was announced and reveled at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, and designed by Pavle Trpinac. The 2013 Rolls Royce Wraith is manufactured and assembled in Goodwood,England by Rolls Royce Motor Cars. And the name of the car Wraith comes from a Scottish word meaning Ghost or Spirit. The class of the Rolls Royce Wraith is a Full-Size car, and the bodystyle is a  2-door coupe. As for the layout and engine the Rolls Royce Wraith is equipped with front-engine, with rear wheel drive, and a 402.3cu twin-turbo V12 engine. And the Rolls Royce Wraith is equipped with a 8-speed automatic transmission, and as for the platform the Wraith has a BMW F01. I like this car because it has class and style, but still has the performance and power. It also has the classic look with the suicide doors on it.

2015 Corvette Z06 C7


The 2015 Corvette Z06 or the C7 was manufactured by General Motors in 2013 till present day. And the C7 was designed by Ed Welburn, Kirk Benion, and Tom Peters. The C7 is assembled in Bowling King, Kentucky of the United States. The C7 was first reveled at 7pm EST on January 13, 2013 at the Detroit Auto Show. The car was originally to be released in 2011 but instead they changed it to 2013. As for some of the awards the car won were Automobile of the year 2014 from Automobile Magazine and also Performance Car of the Year 2013 by Road and Track. The new model of the C7 for 2015 was showed at the 2014 North American International Auto Show. The new C7 is equipped with a 6.2L supercharged LT4 engine with a 1.7L Eaton R1740 TVS supercharger, that produces 650hp and 650 lb-ft of torque. Also the C7 has Hyra-Matic 8L90 8-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters. And also it comes with two choices for the seats which are 2 magnesium GT seats or 2 competition sport seats. The C7 also comes with carbon ceramic-matrix brake disk If wished. The C7 will go on sale in January 2015 and the price is set at $78,995, which to me is not that bad of a price for what your getting. I like the new C7 because its a whole new breed of the Corvette it still has the look of a Corvette but a more aggressive and imitating look to it. The reason why I think it looks aggrieve is because of the shape of the head lights are sharp looking as if they pierce right through you, and the front grill has what looks to be a grin or a smirk on the car. Inviting you to try and control the beast within it. Personally I never really liked the corvettes that came before this one but to me this is a start of a new era of the Corvette.
