Are You A Do-It-Yourself Mechanic?

AutoTap PalmI found this product called AutoTap that some of the visitors to CoolCarGuy.com

The Pleasure of Your Company (aka Wedding Daze) video 13: Game of Death buy

may find of interest, especially if they like to tinker with their own vehicles and want to do diagnostics.

After all, the average price of a mechanic these days has skyrocketed all across the United States. I know that there are many people who like to work on vehicles themselves and this product may be of interest.

AutoTap claims to allow a person to UNLOCK THE SECRETS OF THEIR ENGINE. Autotap.com is a leading provider of auto diagnostic hardware and software. The software looks pretty cool for the price.

How it works: Just hook AutoTap under the dash of your car or light truck, and into your PC or Handheld Palm device and you have a powerful tool that tells you what’s going on with your vehicle. Users SAVE MONEY! No more costly trips to the mechanic just to turn off that pesky “Check Engine” light!

Visit AutoTap.com for more information about their software.

A Car That Runs On Water

WaterA friend of mine recently sent me a news report about a guy who has developed a car that can run on water. Of course, we’ve all heard these types of reports over the years, but this video is definitely one worth watching and sharing with your friends and relatives.

It will make you think twice about bio-fuels, gasoline and other alternative fuel sources when God’s given us a renewable, clean energy source that is in massive abundance without having to pay $3.00 a gallon to drive down the road.

Cool Car Shot – 2006 Ford GT

06FordGT1Hey Cool Car Fans,

Check out this “Cool Car Shot” of the new 2006 Ford GT. Some people are skeptical about an exclusive sportscar manufactured by Ford Motor Company that would sell for over $165,000, but Ford introduced this supercar in 2005 and planned on only making about 1,500 a year based on a race car concept.

This amazing powerhouse was designed based on the public’s response to the resurrection of the record-setting winner of four consecutive Le Mans 24-Hour races in the 1960s making the Ford GT a street legal race car. There is only one model, one engine and one transmission to choose from, which makes it pretty easy for a purchaser, except for the price of course.

06FordGT2

As you can see from the photo’s, the Ford GT is a two-door, two-seat and modified version of the cool racecar that won Le Mans. The engine is a high-tech, supercharged, midship-mounted, 5.4-liter V8 550hp with 500 pound-feet of torque. It comes with a six-speed manual transaxle. 06FordGT3

The Ford GT is a special vehicle that can go in excess of 200 mph and can run on the highway or the racetrack. It’s been called the “utlimate Ford” since it can outperform other sports cars like the Porsche, Ferrari, and Lamborghini.

The Ford GT is not a vehicle for the fuel conscious driver since it gets about 13 miles per gallon in the city and around 21 miles per gallon on the highway, but who cares about gas mileage in a race car?

06FordGT4

The Ford GT is just as cool on the inside, with race car looking leather seats, as it is on the outside. For 2006 Ford brought about a special color limited edition Tungsten Grey (that you can see here) to commemorate the 1966 victory at LeMans. For an extra charge (approximately $5,000), this vehicle also included the colored racing stripes painted on the hood, roof, rear hatch, decklid, and along the side of the body.

This $166,000 ride gets my vote as an Extremely Cool Car.

What do you think?

Cool Car Shot – 2006 Porsche Cayman S

.!.

06CaymanS_1Hey Cool Car Fans,

It’s time for another “Cool Car Shot” at CoolCarGuy.com and this time it’s the new 295 HP 2006 Porsche Cayman S.

This fantastic sport coupe was delivered with a 6 speed manual transmission in Artic Silver Metallic with Black Leather interior.
It has a 6 cylinder, 3.4 liter, water-cooled, rear-mounted, horizontally opposed “boxer” engine that delivers 295hp at 6,250 rpm. It’s rear wheel drive, runs on Premium Unleaded and is a blast to drive!

06CaymanS04
This vehicle came equipped with a Remote 6 Disc CD Changer, Power Seat Package, Bi-Xenon Headlamp Package, A Bose Surround Sound System, Porsche Floor Mats, Heated Front Seats, Self-Dim Mirros & Rain Sensor, Rear Control Consol (Which you can see in the photo matches the Exterior Color), a Rear Luggage Partition, Automatic Climate Control and The Preferred Package. It’s pretty loaded!
06CaymanS3

The inside feels like a race car with the leather seats that contour to your body and the German engineering that went into this car is second to none. If you like to drive, this is the vehicle!

In addition, this baby was equipped with the unique Porsche Sport Chrono Package, which is very cool in that it lets the vehicle be modified electronicallly for higher performance on the race track. Plus, the new owner, who we will call “Dr. H”, went for the 19″ Carrerra S Wheels with the Wheel Caps that have the Porsche colored crest.

There are limited quantities at the dealerships and in some parts of the country they are selling for above MSRP. The Porsche Cayman S Coupe is definitely one of my favorite sports cars and according to Motor Trend Magazine it’s a contender for replacing it’s cousin the Porsche 911. 06CaymanS02

Cool Car Shot – 1951 Ford Pickup

51Ford1I recently had an avid car fan send me photos of a very cool 1951 Ford pickup that some friends of his were looking to sell. He asked me to help him sell the vehicle and at the time of this post it’s available, but I thought it was such a cool truck that I would give it a “Cool Car Shot” posting at CoolCarGuy.com.

I’ve had a number of people asking about this truck, but nobody has stepped forward to claim the prize and put down the cash to buy it. My guess is that people are concerned about the gas mileage.51Ford2

Personally, I think this would be a great promotional vehicle for a local business. In Castle Rock, Colorado there is a guy who drives around an old restored pickup like this one for his Allstate business. The amount of advertising and business he has created from the truck has more than paid for the cost of the vehicle.

What do you think?
