"I loved the movie and all the cars in it. It was one hell of a movie but one car that really got my attention was the 1970 Dodge Charger. It was a pure beast!!!"
This car first appears in the movie 'The Fast and The Furious'. The car was originally a 1969 Dodge Charger and it had been modified to look like a 1970 Dodge Charger. As in the movie Dominic and his father build this car when Dominic was young. The car was build for drags and it did a 1/4 mile in 9 seconds flat. Well that was pretty impressive. Its got a 900hp Supercharged Chrysler engine. Dominic's father died driving this car. He collide head on with a wall at 120mph. After that incident Dominic was scared to drive the charger. When he discovers that Brian is a cop he takes the charger out for a deadly drag.

Memorable Quotes
Dom: I live my life a quarter mile at a time. Nothing else matters: not the mortgage, not the store, not my team and all their bullshit. For those ten seconds or less, I'm free.
Dom: [looking at the junked Toyota Supra being hauled in] I said a ten-*second* car, not a ten-*minute* car. Jesse: You could push this across the finish line, or tow it. Dom: You couldn't even tow that across the finish line. Brian: No Faith. Dom: I have faith in you, but this isn't a junkyard. This is a garage
The deadly drag race from the movie
This car was totaled and rebuilt 3 times in the movie franchise so it is obvious that it is gonna be there for a long time. This charger has become a star in movie cars. It is one of the best muscle cars out their in the whole world.

"Finally Chevrolet has unveiled the 2014 Corvette C7, Well i was pretty much impressed with this car simply becauseat the first glanceyou feel there is something really cool about this car and the old-school 'Stingray' is back!"
Corvettes have been the one of the best American muscles for about 50 years. Chevrolet has put their maximum effort to keep this legendary car production line alive and kicking. They have always been at the top when it comes to performance and design point of view. For those who love raving and fast muscle cars Corvettes are the best choice for you.
Well the 2014 corvette C7, Lets take a look at the car first
She is a beauty isn't she? this reminds me of the old-school Stingray cars. The thing about Stingrays is there's always something different about it. There is always something new and exciting about it and it was always a unique design. well the 2014 C7 has its own unique design and as you can see you will be completely in love with the car at the first sight. The 2014 C7 had it's debut unveiling at Detroit North American International Auto Show in January 2013. Check out the video:
Lets have a look at the interior a bit:
It look really cool inside and its got a manual 6 speed gear box! The sporty leather seats are really nice. The dashboard and the meters look clean and simple and the leathery finish is awesome.
Well let's look at what's under the hood.
Engine - LT1 6.2L V-8 Power - 450hp Compression ratio - 11.5:1 Manual Transmission - 7-speed with Active Rev Match Automatic transmission - 6-speed paddle-shift Tires - Michelin Pilot Sport ZP run-flat Wheels - 18" front / 19" rear, 19" front / 20" rear (Z51) Weight distribution (%) - 50 / 50 (front/rear) Track (in) - 62.8 / 61.6 (front/rear) Brake Diameter (in) - 12.6 (13.6 Z51) (front), 13.3 (rear)
Well that was pretty impressive isn't it? It has around 450hp and it is the quickest standard Corvette ever build with a 0 to 60 mph time less than 4.0 seconds. It is going to be one of the best American muscle car ever build and Chevrolet is going to make sure of it. I personally love this car and i hope you enjoyed my review.

The legendary production line of sports cars which was epic from the very beginning
"Well a corvette... don't get me started on these things. I don't need to explain what kind of a car it is you already know. Its the ultimate car for a guy who loves racing and muscle cars.
