At its launch in 2004, the R1200GS was 30 kg (66 lb) lighter than the R1150GS it replaced, and produced 100 bhp (75 kW), an increase of 19%. BMW continued to produce the R1150GS Adventure, releasing a final run-out special edition model, before launching the R1200GS Adventure at the end of 2005, for the 2006 model year.

In 2007, upgrades were made to both models for the 2008 model year.

The suspension of the 2007 model was carried over almost unchanged from the 2006 bike, with the same 41 mm (1.61 in) inverted fork in front, and Honda's Unit Pro-Link rear suspension configuration damping the rear wheel. The new three-spoke cast aluminum wheels were also lighter than those on the 2006 bike, which further contributed to the enhanced performance of the suspension. The brakes featured dual radial-mount four-piston calipers and twin 310 mm (12.20 in) discs at the front, and a single-piston caliper and a 220 mm (8.66 in) disc at the rear. Hidden below the steering head was an updated version of the Honda Electronic Steering Damper (HESD) system, which was also available on the CBR1000RR.

The smaller, sharper-edged new front upper fairing was dominated by the large central ram-air duct which fed the airbox through an opening in the steering head section of the frame and was separated from the sides of the fairing by a large gap which Honda said was for air management purposes. The tail-section was similarly smaller and sharper-edged, riding atop a heavily restyled under-seat muffler.

The motorcycle carried over with only color scheme changes for the 2008 model year.
CBR600RR gets feature race-inspired brake discs with radial-mount four-piston calipers, and an aluminum frame an entirely new, swingarm and rear shock. Midrange power also increases.

CBR600RR's wet weight down by 22 lb (10.0 kg)

The design that we show (found by journalists from Visordown ) reveals the technical layout of the next generation of medium-sized super sport made ​​by Honda.
The suspicion that this is the future CBR600RR is real and goes hand in hand with the hypothesis that this model will be the basis for the bike that Honda will field in the championship of Moto2.
Moto2 in the future should become attractive for other manufacturers (and not just for the frame builders), similar to what is happening now for the unborn Moto3.
In 2005, the CBR600RR received a major revision with new bodywork, fully adjustable inverted front forks, race-inspired disc brakes with radial-mounted four-piston calipers, and an entirely new aluminum frame, swingarm and rear shock. The midrange power was also increased. These changes along with additional refinements to the engine and exhaust system all came together to bring CBR600RR's wet weight down by 22 lb (10.0 kg), and dry weight by 9 lb (4.1 kg) Except for new color schemes, the 2006 model was unchanged from the 2005 model.

CBR600RR

The CBR600RR was developed from and inspired by the Honda RC211V MotoGP bike. The similar physical appearance of the CBR600RR and RC211V was intentional. Underneath the bike was MotoGP technologies that were made available for the first time on a production motorcycle, such as the Unit Pro-Link rear suspension and Dual Stage Fuel Injection (PGM-DSFI). Both were taken directly from Honda's MotoGP bike. The RR, or race replica, suffix was added to emphasize racing characteristics such as an advanced braced swingarm, center-up exhaust system, and more aggressive riding position. The 2003 model carried over to 2004 technically unchanged, with the only addition of an oxygen sensor and new color schemes.

It delivers room for as many as eight, plenty of space for cargo and better fuel economy than any eight-passenger SUV.


2012 Buick Enclave CXL

Enclave also offers a starting price that makes its luxury competitors take notice, along with a host of standard equipment and the industry’s best warranty coverage.
Test drivers say that the 2011 Enclave provides a smooth ride and is surprisingly fun to drive. According to Car and Driver, "The ride is surprisingly dynamic, with little body roll even on some winding, shoulderless rural asphalt." While reviewers previously complained about sluggish acceleration, this was remedied in part by a 2009 upgrade to the V6 engine's horsepower.

exclusive features of 2012 Buick Enclave Exterior

The Buick Enclave has been changing consumer perception about the Buick brand and about luxury crossovers since it was introduced. Blending style and grace with precision, Buick Enclave delivers comfort for up to eight, plenty of space for cargo and at 24 mpg highway (2WD), better fuel economy than any eight-passenger SUV.

The Buick Enclave also offers a starting price that beats luxury brands by thousands, even though it offers a host of standard equipment and the industry’s best warranty coverage. Its appeal as a premium family vehicle gives it the lowest average age of any Buick model, at 59. For 2011, Buick Enclave is available in CX and CXL models with front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive.
Enclave is available in CX and CXL trim levels, with eight exterior and three interior colors, front-wheel or all-wheel drive, a new 288-horsepower and 276 lb-ft of torque V6 powertrain featuring variable valve timing (VVT) and mated to Buick's first six-speed automatic transmission.


Enclave achieves an EPA-estimated 24 mpg highway for front-wheel drive models and 22 mpg highway for all-wheel-drive models.

Riding on a 119-inch wheelbase, the production Enclave appears virtually identical to the concept car shown at the 2006 North American International Auto Show in January. Like the concept, the crossover sports signature Buick cues include a waterfall grille -- with "tri-shield" emblem -- and portholes. The portholes, which are similar in design to the new Lucerne sedan, are mounted on the trailing edges of the hood, which forms a distinct "V" shape.

Inside, the interior retains many of the design elements of the concept, with a slightly more practical implementation. GM insists the craftsmanship that made Enclave concept popular is carried over to the production model.

Driving Impressions

Buick Enclave 2010 edition feels more ponderous and bigger on the road when compared to some of its rivals. However, the engine is pretty powerful in most conditions. Handling abilities are not so inspiring, but still feel secure. On the whole, 2010 Enclave shines on the road- all credits to its compliant suspension and quiet ride.
Interior Specifications

The interior of Enclave is quite luxurious with a host of amenities and exclusive features. It comes with two bucket seats at the front and two diverse seating arrangements for the second as well as third rows with a capability to accommodate a maximum of eight passengers.
Pros and Cons

2010 Enclave boasts a sleek design at interior as well as exterior with spacious passenger and cargo room; it also gets good crash test scores. The main downside of this crossover SUV is that its size impedes maneuverability.

Buick Enclave 2010 edition is an excellent option to be considered for families, who prefer the functionality of a minivan with a luxurious interior and classy styling.

2012 Porsche Cayenne though is powered by a VR6 derived engine

Though critics have knocked the fact that the sporty posh car maker has been dabbling in SUVs, they may close their lips after seeing the new 2011 Porsche Cayenne.

One of the most noticeable changes is the drive. In earlier models, the critics were right, Porsche's SUVs were heavy and didn't have the smooth drive that Porsche owners covet. But they have learned a lot since their first trial in 2003, and have even gone leaps and bounds from last year's model.
Gemballa Porsche Cayenne - Territorium
The base model Porsche Cayenne though is powered by a VR6 derived engine, which is the same unit that powers the above mentioned VW Touareg as well as the Volkswagen Golf R32. It produces around 250 horse power which is good enough the get the rather large and heavy Porsche Cayenne from rest to 100 kph (62 mph) in around 7.5 seconds.

However, as Porsche are not necessarily known for their slow cars, there are other options available. The next step up is the Porsche Cayenne S. This version has a V8 engine delivering 340 horse power. This decreases the sprint time from the above 7.5 seconds to a more respectable 6.4 seconds with a top speed of 155 mph.

After that there is the Porsche Cayenne GTS which houses a 4.8 litre V8 engine which produces 405 horse power. The sprint time consequently drops again to now below 6 seconds at 5.7 seconds.

Fisker Karma coming in production form

Valmet Automotive, current manufacturer of the Porsche Cayman and the Porsche Boxster sports cars, will be proudly assembling the Karma Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle. Buyers can rest assured that their cars have been assembled by teams of highly skilled and professional artisans who have years of experience behind them.

Funding rescheduling forced Fisker Automotive to delay the release date of the Karma by two years. Originally slated to hit showroom floors in late 2009, the company now has initial deliveries scheduled for March 2011. President Obama has a clear goal of seeing one million electric vehicles on the roads by the end of his administration. Together with Gov. Jack Markell, Fisker Automotive was lent $550 million to help them get the cars into showrooms. The Karma sports sedan retails at $96,000 and has already rolled off Finland assembly line. The company's goal is to produce 115,000 cars over the next few years, and experts question if that goal is perhaps a little too aggressive.
