I Would Like to Buy a New Car or Used Car

Buy a New Car,  buy used cars,  drive the car, steering wheel

Anyone who has ever bought a spanking new car will tell you that feeling like no other. That the smell of new car, the odometer is not yet recorded the first full mile, peace of mind that comes with the new car's warranty bumper to bumper and the satisfaction of the hidden knowledge of the first driver you curl your fingers around the steering wheel. And hey, in an ideal world everyone to get a new car of their choice on each and every birthday gala. However, if your birthday came and went rejoicing and old cars sitting in the same corridor, the time may be ripe for an alternative plan.

If your car is currently getting up there in miles, is looking a little frayed around the edges and begin to spend more time in the shop on the highway, it's time to replace. The first question you should ask yourself is "Can I buy a new car?" Even if the answer is "yes", you may still want to look for a used car models today will last for a longer period and more reliable that any in history. Let's take a look at the pros and cons of both new and used.


A New Car

• It's new. Everything is new, looks great and smells wonderful.
• warranty. New car warranty provides peace of mind.
• Reliability. You do not have to worry about getting to go to where I was you.
• the situation. New cars unique cache of prestige. And family and friends being impressed and jealous.

Cons:

• Price. New cars are expensive.
• consumption. The new car to lose 20-40% of its value after only one year.
• high fees. DMV fees and higher insurance rates for new cars.
• financing costs. Even with today's loans in the long term will be more financing principle and pay more attention to the total return for a loan smaller and shorter.

Cirbin V13R a odd motorcycle or odd car?

Taking the best of a car and a motorcycle and merging them together always brings up the question. Cirbin has done just that by taking a Harley-Davidson V-Rod and added a extra tire and seats and replacing the handlebars with a steering wheel.The look of the Cirbin is quite unique and will certainly have many people asking if this vehicle is really more car or motorcycle. But to those that get a chance to own one of these, the question will probally not matter. Just by the styling of the of the V13R, we can bet that people will flock to this and want one for themselves. The only thing that will stop all the gawkers from owning one of these is the price range starting at $40,000 dollars.


With the styling of the V13R reminding me of the old style racing cars, it seems to show it’s speed just even sitting. The flow of the body to the rear wheel is done with a show of chrome that most bikers will love.Here are a few specs about the bike/car:

Structural 1,5’’ (38 mm) tubular steel
TIG & MIG welded joints
Removable reinforced sub frame assembly
Removable 1,75” (44,5 mm) safety Roll Bars assembly
Reinforced 2” (51 mm) steel tubular swingarm
Stainless steel bolts
Polished billet wheels
Front: 205/45ZR17
Rear: 295/35ZR18
Fiberglass body panels with barrier gelcoat
Car Industry paint and clear coat
Paint with UV Resistance
