I really don`t think so. You either do it for the love of it or the

desire to keep the car. If the object is to fix it up & flip it for a

profit there are a lot more easier ways to make a buck.

Title: There is my car, now watch it turn on.

So to begin with, this is not real or augmented reality. It is a trickster

“…to automatically unlock/lock*3 the car door and start/stop the engine. Nissan and Sharp has now integrated these electronic intelligent-key, wireless communications and electromagnetic technologies into the new handset. ”

I have always been jealous of my friends that can start their cars from their key fobs, especially on those cold or hot days that could use some warming up or cooling down. Hopefully one day, I will be able to download my make and year of my car (and maybe some private registration info) to my cell phone and be able to access my car and other cool features from the palm of my hand.

Title: New 2010 Nissan Altima Leaked (details and photos)
Date: Thu, 24 Sep 2009 13:09:29 +0000
Author: Trance4you

The new images of the updated Nissan 2010 Altima was leaked to the web on the same day the company issued a recall for 26,398 Altimas and Maximas.

2010 Nissan Altima leaked img_1 | AutoWorld

The 2010 Altima receives the reworked front fascia, now it features a slightly more prominent upper grille and a lower intake that’s molded in body color plastic instead of black. Flanking that lower opening are new foglights that sit inside boomerang-shaped recesses. We can’t make out much of the car’s hind quarters, but it seems the tail lamps have grown a in size.

Read more (details and photos)!!

Engine options will expected carryover, meaning we can expect a 2.5-liter four cylinder with 175 hp and 180 lb-ft of torque as well as a 3.5-liter V6 with 270 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque.

In terms of technology, the Altima is probable to deal a 4.3-crawl HDD navigation approach (with iPod connectivity), xenon headlights, and a 9 GB audio usage.
