The auto auction is where many used car dealers go to find deals for their company. This usually consists of the used car sales manager heading to the auto auction and buying the cars that he or she thinks will turn the biggest profit for their dealership. These auto auctions usually take place about once a week, and can be attended by only authorized car dealers. This is not the same as a car auction which can be attended by the general public. The main purpose of this sort of auto auction is to allow car dealers to buy and sell used cars for their lot.Buying used cars at an auto auction allows for the dealer to purchase a car at a very cheap amount and then turn it into a nice profit. These dealers know their limitations, and they know what they need to buy a car for at the auction in order to turn a reasonable profit at the dealership.There are many dealers that also sell their used cars at auto auctions. These dealers often sell cars that they can not move off of their lot for one reason or the next. Also, these dealers also practice taking trade ins to the auction to get rid of them for more money than they paid out. This is a great way for them to make some extra money off of the trade ins that they accept.An auto auction is an event that every car dealer has taken part in at one point in time, and probably will again sometime in the near future. This is one of the best ways for them to make money, and turn a large profit for their respective dealership. If you are authorized head to your local auto auction today and make some money!But there is something only few people know: there are now many auto auction sites online where everyone can auction a luxury car for peanuts. Every single month, thousands of cars become government or bank property through various seizure laws. Due to the fact that the expense to store them is enormous, these cars must be sold fast and cheap. You can buy direct from the sources and save tremendously. Savings of up to 90% off the regular retail price are not rare. If you are looking for a new or used European, Japanese, or American luxury car, such as an Aston Martin, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Cadillac, Corvette, Hummer, Infiniti, Jaguar, Lamborghini, Lexus, Lotus, Maserati, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, or Roll-Royce the best auction site is http://www.bestluxuryautoauctions.com. You can bid on the car of your dreams or buy it outright. A buyer can also find the best prices on Acura, Lexus, Toyota, or Honda, by visiting auction sites.

Zero One is the fast growing, young thinking, dynamic face of Supercar retailing in the UK today.
Tags: cars, Performance, Promo, Reel, ZeroLeaving conventional imagery behind, Man vs Machine capture the sense of fun, speed and excitement these “earth bound spaceships” impart on anyone lucky enough to experience the thrill of the ride.
Aided by a thumping soundtrack, silhouettes emerge from an inky darkness in the simplest of fashion via form seeking beams, and with targets located – shape car, space, and time in an alternative surreal dimension. At ever-increasing pace cars are formed, br oken up, spun and reformed in a myriad of ways, dragging the eye around the screen in the process. In the end one is left slightly exhausted by the experience, mirroring the shear joy and beauty of line these machines impart on mere mortals.

The Tesla Roadster – All-electric Sports Car
Given the current movement to ‘go green’ combined with the high cost of gasoline, the electric car is gaining in popularity. The Smart Car has been spotted weaving in and out of New York City traffic. However, the Smart Car is an energy efficient, practical, relatively inexpensive workhorse with a boxy shape.
The Tesla Roadster is a sports car and America loves a sports car. But due to its high price, it is oriented to a different market than the Smart Car.
The Tesla might also be dubbed an international sports car. Norway produces the chassis. The RTM carbon fiber body panels are made by SOTIRA, in St. Meloir and Pouance, France. Siemens in Germany manufactures the brakes and airbags. The motors are produced in Taiwan. And the Lotus factory in Hethel, England assembles the car.
Lotus has had considerable influence since the inception. Lotus provided design assistance and furnished the basic chassis development technology from the Lotus Elise. The styling was developed by Barney Hatt at Lotus’ design studio however he did consult with Tesla engineers. It was Tesla engineers who decided to use resin transfer molded carbon fiber to construct the body panels.
The Roadster is available in two models, the Standard Model and the Sports Model.
The Roadster is equipped with a 3-phase, 4-pole AC induction motor that can produce 248 hp. The Sport Model can produce 288 hp.
The Standard Model can accelerate from 0-60 mph in 3.9 seconds while the Sport model can do this in 3.7 seconds. The electronically limited top speed is 125 mph.
The Roadster’s battery pack is called the Energy Storage System or ESS. It requires three and one half hours to fully recharge the battery. The battery weighs 992 pounds and in 2008, the cost of a replacement was $20,000.
From the very beginning Tesla had transmission problems, which caused several delays in production. Tesla experimented with several transmissions but none were successful. Finally, in September 2008 they decided to use a single speed Borg Warner fixed gear transmission.
The Roadster is a rear wheel drive with most of the weight centered in front of the rear axle.
Weighing in at around 2,700 pounds, it is approximately 13 feet long, 6 feet wide and 4 feet high.
All Roadsters are equipped with left hand drive so at this time, Tesla cannot market in England or countries where traffic stays to the left-hand side of the road.
Paul Boutin of ‘Slate’ gave the Roadster an outstanding review. It also appeals to celebrities such as Jay Leno who dubbed it ‘fun to drive.’
However, owning it will require a celebrity’s income. To date the Roadsters have been sold on a reservation basis. Six hundred fifty were planned for 2008 and all were reserved. In 2009, Tesla plans to market 1500 vehicles. While the 2008 models were priced at $98,000 with a $950.00 destination charge, the price of the 2009 models has been raised to $109,000.
So for people who have $110,000 to $120,000 to spend, are in love with sports cars, and will accept an electric car, the Tesla is the car to buy.
