Future Cars: CarScoop's Vision of the 2017 Nissan GT-R Posted: 28 Jan 2013 06:59 PM PST Ever since its Japanese launch in 2007 (USA 2008), the Nissan GT-R has gained a huge following and respect with its supercar-bashing performance. Subtle upgrades have been applied over its current lifespan with the aim of keeping Italians, Germans and Americans at bay with its AWD drivetrain coupled to a potent 3.8L twin-turbo V6. However, the competition will not surrender; cue GM and Porsche with their new Corvette Stingray and 911 models respectively, as prime examples - hence why Nissan is expected to respond again. For those of us like myself who grew up as part of the early-adapting PlayStation generation, the GT-R obsession grew with the R32-34 Nissan Skylines of the 1990's. Their bang-for-buck thrills combined with endless modification options has turned the GT-R moniker into something of an automotive cult status. Read more » |
Spy Shots: Ferrari's F150 Hypercar Shows a Little Bit More Skin Posted: 28 Jan 2013 05:48 PM PST Unlike McLaren, which has all but revealed the shape of the P1 and even released videos of its development, but is keeping mum on the powertrain specs, Ferrari has been very open about its own hypercar, currently code-named the F150 (rumor has it that it may be named F70).

Carscoop is Back, and Yes, We're Ready to Move on Posted: 28 Jan 2013 06:44 PM PST It has been almost four days since Google erroneously took down our website, but we're back on our digital feet, and as we told you through our FaceBook page where many of you stayed in touch with us, and for which, we thank you, we're ready to make some important changes to the way Carscoop operates. But first things first. Naturally, you will be wondering why was Carscoop taken down for the second time in 40 days? Well, sites hosted on Google's Blogger platform are subjected to what the internet giant calls "automated classification system", which made a false positive marking our site as a spam blog. Here's Google's definition of a 'spam blog': "Spam blogs cause various problems, beyond simply wasting a few seconds of your time when you happen to come across one. They can clog up search engines, making it difficult to find real content on the subjects that interest you. They may scrape content from other sites on the web, using other people's writing to make it look as though they have useful information of their own. And if an automated system is creating spam posts at an extremely high rate, it can impact the speed and quality of the service for other, legitimate users." Wait a second; if Carscoop creates unique content, then why is it targeted by Google Blogger's 'robots'? Well, prepare yourself for an answer that will surprise you as much as it surprised us. This is what two Blogger Top Contributors (TCs) told Carscoop: Read more » |
