While this pyramid-shaped car might look pretty goofy, it’s actually an energy-efficient electric vehicle which laughs in the face of today’s gas guzzlers.

Created by Sugar Grove, Illinois inventor Greg Zanis, the Dream Car 123 tools down the street at up to 40 mph. A single 3.5 hour charge provides about 240 miles of driving for only about $5 in electricity cost.

A team of researchers at the MIT’s media lab are busy developing a prototype of lightweight stackable electric cars that could help overcome the congestion problem. The prototype vehicle dubbed the City Car could be folded and stacked at central sites.

The City Car will be powered by a robotic drive system transformed from the lowly wheel. Each wheel will integrate an electric motor, steering and braking machinery, suspension, and digital controls. All these would be merged into sealed entities that could be snapped on and off.

The City Car will start at the mere press of a button and will boast a handlebar instead of a steering wheel. Lightweight material like Kevlar or carbon fiber will make the body of the car. The notion of the City Car was devised as part of a strategy for plummeting carbon emissions.

Okay. So I have been blogging a lot about cars lately. I hope I don’t bore you with my endless rants about our old car and dreaming about buying another one. The black Lexud car I was talking about… my husband does really love to have it. For me. Yes, he said nowadays with my earning from paid blogging is quite okay, I can afford to buy a car. Just take a car loan for down payment then I pay the rest monthly with my bloggy earning. There are a lot of Auto Financing available online so it’s easy to get a payment for down payment. At Apex Auto Loan.com, it is indeed very easy to apply for a car loan. When you apply, they have a system that makes it easy, fast and hassle free for you. I’m just now sure whether I could keep up with the monthly payment though. But it’s another thing to consider.

It’s time to continue our look at some of the iconic Rauh Welt-tuned Porsche examples from Japan and this time we will be looking at a car that belongs to one of Nakai-san’s most dedicated customers. As with many of the other RWB-built cars, this one was built with a strong emphasis on both on circuit performance and style. As Nakai-san himself said, what’s the point in racing if your car doesn’t look cool?

The owner of this particular 1992 model year Porsche 911 saw Nakai-san’s personal flat black 930 and wanted to have a car that could perform just like it and have the same intimidating looks. But while the customer wanted serious performance from the car, he also wanted plenty of drivability, smooth power delivery, and other things that make the car more driver-friendly.

Starting off on the exterior, we have all the signature RWB aero parts including the giant fender flares (molded), bumper, and the stacked rear wing. The most outstanding feature on the outside would have to be the flat olive green body color. When I first saw this car, images of German Panzer tanks and Messerschmitt fighter planes were going through my head. Ready for battle…

Continuing on with the battle-ready theme we have the plastic windows complete with ducts that feed fresh air into the rear of the car. Just look at that rear quarter window, don’t the lines and color remind you of WWII-era fighter planes? Although the car has shaved plenty of weight from the stock figures, because of the extra driver friendliness, this car is still about 100kg heavier than Nakai-san’s personal machine.

Engine-wise this car is running a fuel-injected 3.8L motor that outputs around 360hp while maintaining smooth power delivery and quick response. The car was also designed to be a lot easier to maintain than Nakai’s car. The blue anodized velocity stacks also add a nice visual touch to the engine bay. Unlike front engine-cars, there is not quite as much room for cosmetic engine bay work on these Porsches.

The interior is pure race-spec on this car. We have a single Recaro fixed-back bucket seat and a full roll cage that is wrapped in orange foam for added driver safety. I thought that all the orange in the interior made a nice contrast with the flat green body color. Although this car is obviously designed for heavy track use, it is also registered and can be driven on the street.

Here you can see the handsome OEM Momo steering wheel and the rest of the minimalist interior. The transmission on this car is one of Porsche’s G15 units that was sourced from a 1987 911. This particular ‘mission was selected for its ease of use compared to the one in Nakai’s car. Nakai-san said, “This car is so easy even a woman can drive it.”

Don’t think that we would leave out the wheels. The car is equipped with a set of RWB-spec Work Meister S1’s in 18”x11J +0 in the front and 18”x12J -33 in the rear. Rubber-wise, we have a set a sticky set of Bridgestone Potenza RE55S tires (with trick Idlers Club lettering). The brakes are a set of RWB-spec Brembos front and rear. Suspension modifications include a set of Rauh Welt’s original coilovers.

Speaking of the Idlers Club, here is a shot of the car running at last month’s Idlers Race at Tsukuba Circuit. Although it is not as fast as Nakai’s car, it was still very competitive against its rivals in the Super Cup race, and it didn’t hurt that it was one of the coolest looking cars on the track. I think that only Nakai-san’s car could compete with it in that category.

Next time I will finish up my RWB car features with a good look at Nakai’s flat black beast.

Saving the best for last you know.

I was at the local car sale market the other day, trying to sell my old Ford. I was there from dawn to dusk and sadly no one was even remotely interested in my car! However, the guy selling his Honda next to my lot caught my attention. He simply left his car on the lot and when he came back, he managed to sell it to an interested middle aged couple! I asked him what was his secret and he beckoned me nearer, and showed me the Car Magnets he custom made on the side of the old Honda. It says “Car for sale. Free gas.” That’s it. Five words, and it made his car sell like hot cakes!

Digging further for information I found out that Buildasign.com was where he got the magnets. You can design virtually any type of magnets and more for low, affordable prices. They don’t just do magnets; in fact if you own a business you should go to them for custom made vinyl signs and banners~!
