It is a known fact that cars are part of our everyday life; deeply integrated into the post-modern culture. On their own, cars fit stereotipical cliche's used to define established traditions of present civilization.
Why?
Because cars encompass both of what society classifies as good and bad.
For instance, cars are objects of necessity and vice.
A car can be an object that simply serves a need for the benefit of society: eg transportation. It can also be a fashion statement that feeds on the instictive vanity found in some people who constantly feel the need to prove their own individuality.
It is a product of masterful human ingenuity, and creativity (599 Fiorano springs into mind). But it is also a product of human tragedy (safety flaws that brought about countless untimely deaths).
Cars have been the tool that introduced modern day heroes (Juan Manuel Fangio, Jim Clark, Jackie Stewart, Niki Lauda, Gilles Villeneuve, Ayrton Senna, Michael Schumacher and the like). But cars were also tools that defined tragic figures (James Dean, Liberace)
The abundance of cars has become one of the leading issues of the problem of unsustainable development (pollution and the ever-scandalous tobacco ad campaigns associated in motor sports). But cars are also the stage that highlights the future (since some cars show the promising efficiency of hybrid technology and solar technology).
The bottomline is that cars are everywhere and they affect everyone either in a positive or in a negative way.
This blog basically attempts to tackle such diverse issues: whether it be the practical (issues related to buying and/or selling cars), entertainment (the world of motor racing) and even the virtual (video games and on-line gaming).
You name it. If it's about cars, chances are, what your looking for is here.
