classic cars - Driving BMW 507


Driving the BMW 507

looking down the bonnet of the 507

How exhaust pipes used to be made

classic cars - Driving BMW 507, Outside, it’s typically overcast but with a special menace in the air. Five classic BMWs of varying sentimental and financial worth are lined up like prized debutants at a ball: Z8, 2002tii, E36 M3 Cab, 840i and 507. Perhaps it’s the foreboding sky that convinces fellow journalists to skilfully sidestep the priceless 507 (900 000 Euros at last count), granting me the first dance.
Tentatively I open the door. It swings without the complication of a modern hinge and thuds shut again with practised precision. With the fabric hood on roof duty, it feels slightly cramped, but only because of the proximity of the upright screen and the selfish side glass. Slim seats and a sparsely populated cabin compensate. I’m confronted by an anaemic white rim and an all-black metal dash, punctuated by six ivory-hued knobs that long ago ceased to advertise their job description. I fiddle around under the seat for a lever, and slide it forward. Everything’s in super nick, and even though I realise BMW has more precious 507s squirreled away and that this one is driven regularly, I wind down the windows and nudge the indicator’s spindly stalk as gently as if I was playing baseball with a porcelain bat.

 A prod on the accelerator to lift the revs in stall prevention and I ease off the light clutch and point the 507V8 engine’s throb – a heady mix of Harley Davidson at idle and Wagner on cam – pulses through the tight cabin. I ask myself, ‘Has there ever been a better mid-range soundtrack on Munich's streets?’ Second slots home easily and the torque is instantly apparent. Finding third is trickier as the gate on the four-speeder is far wider than the six-speed ’boxes we’re used to today. Typically old school brakes require more heft than deft. Two corners in, and the indicator’s fused out. Somehow sticking your arm out the window in a 507 just looks less daft. As it turns out, taking gaps is easy, as 335s make way in quiet, patient reverence.

Mazda MX 5 2010 Great Car Model

2010 Mazda MX-5 Miata Grand TouringMazda MX 5 Wallpaper

The Mazda Miata has been around so long that it might seem that everything that could be written about it already has. If you think so, stop reading here. On the other hand, as much as the Miata has stayed the same over the years, it also has changed. And as much as it has changed over the years, it also has remained the same. At the root of it all is Miata's vaunted "oneness of horse and rider" concept it has pursued since the first of these roadsters debuted in 1989. It's a contention we find difficult to contradict, as does America, the market for which Mazda's roadster was originally developed.

Mazda did so in the first generation by pointing the air intake at the firewall, basically aiming a trumpet at the driver. It worked, at least from a sports car sound standpoint, but it required pulling in hot underhood air into the engine intake, which is bad for performance. For 2009, Mazda decided to bring in cooler ambient air for more consistent performance, ducting it from the front of the car. But that reduced the amount of the intake sounds heard by the driver. To recover that, Mazda experimented with reverberation chambers attached to the intake system and aimed that at the Miata's firewall.

Toyota Motor Corp. President and Chief Executive Akio Toyoda said Wednesday that the auto maker plans to build a "fun-to-drive" affordable sports car and launch it within the next few years.

Mr. Toyoda said during an appearance here that the company is making the move in an effort to inject the enthusiasm from the race track into the vehicles Toyota builds around the world.

"I am very excited about it and I plan to put it on the fast track," said Mr. Toyoda, who is also a race car driver. "Along with my hope for getting Toyota back on track, I believe the U.S. market will not only recover, but come back stronger than ever."

Mr. Toyoda didn't provide specific details on the appearance of the car or when it would be introduced in the U.S.

The company, along with the world's other auto makers, has been struggling with sluggish sales around the world amid the global economic recession.

Toyota said Tuesday it will deliver a smaller-than-expected 77.82 billion yen ($816 million) quarterly loss, and reduced its full-year fiscal loss forecast to 450 billion yen through March, better than the 550 billion yen loss initially projected.

"The severe drop in the economy and auto market has created some of the most challenging times Toyota has ever faced," Mr. Toyoda said. "I am to take us back to what made Toyota successful for many years--making high-quality products at an affordable price."

Separately, Mr. Toyoda didn't provide any further detail on the future of the New United Motors Manufacturing Inc. plant launched 25 years ago in California. GM announced last month it was withdrawing from the partnership as part of its bankruptcy exit strategy.

"GM's decision to withdraw from the joint venture has created some extremely difficult issues for us to resolve," Mr. Toyoda said. "We are still studying the situation, and I hope to make the decision soon."
