Bass up your BMW with a Fiberglass Speaker Box |
|
Let?s face it; if you?re driving a BMW 3 series, BMW 7 series, or any kind of BMW at all, then you?re driving one of the finest automobiles on the market. The ride is smooth, the acceleration quick, and overall it?s a comfortable top of the line car. Even the stock sound system that comes with a BWM is pretty nice. Unfortunately, the system does not come with one of the most vital parts of good sound, which is a sub woofer. Sub woofers are meant to give depth and complete the spectrum of sound in a stereo. The BMW product line has a wide variety of sub woofers, car amplifiers, and custom speaker boxes to choose from for your car. Custom speaker boxes are specifically designed to fit your model of BMW. Therefore, you?ll be able to install your car amplifier and sub woofer without taking up too much space, and without tearing up your interior. Instead, custom speaker boxes will blend with the interior of your BMW so that it looks like part of the original car. When choosing a fiberglass speaker box for your new system you?ll not only be getting the highest quality material producing the best sound possible, but you?ll get a light weight box that won?t add pounds on to your BMW. Custom speaker boxes work by preventing the out of phase waves from the rear from mixing with the in phase waves of the front. Therefore, when installed properly there is no resonance and a crystal clear sound can be heard from all spectrums. The BMW speaker box product line includes a top of the line Bassforms fiberglass speaker box for the BMW 3 series, BMW 5 series, BMW 6 series, and BMW 7 series. Look for an expert staff that will assist you in choosing the right car amplifier, sub woofer, and fiberglass speaker box for your type of vehicle. Complete the sound system in your BMW and fully enjoy your beautiful ride. Mark Markham is the owner of SuperCrewSound.com, one of the leading online retailers of fiberglass BMW subwoofer enclosures and other car audio components. SuperCrewSound began by specializing in custom speaker boxes and sub woofers for trucks, but has since expanded to cover cars and other vehicle types.

BMW, Panasonic, Microsoft to Discuss During CES How the In-Car Infotainment Industry |
|
(PRWEB) November 17, 2007 -- Selected industry leaders including BMW, Panasonic and Microsoft will be discussing the trends and innovations to come in the in-car infotainment in Las Vegas on the last day of CES at the annual Consumer Telematics Seminar. With a culture that pushes creation, innovation and a breaking of all design and technological boundaries, the consumer electronics industry continues to deliver thrilling new devices to the delight of the digitally greedy consumers. This culture provokes the automakers' to sit up and take notice of what devices they need to facilitate and provide integration into the vehicle so that consumers can experience all functionalities in their car. A clear challenge between the two industries is the differing design lifecycle whereby OEM's develop their vehicles years in advance and comparatively consumer electronic devices are designed and produced within months. "The trend towards consumer electronics device integration into the automobile will continue to accelerate. The relationship between these two disparate industries will be strengthened through innovative and collaborative exchanges as exemplified by this conference." Fran Dance, Telematics Business Development Manager, BMW who is speaking at the Consumer Telematics Seminar 2008. As the value and potential of the consumer electronics industry undergoes rapid growth, in turn the challenge of delivering the high level experience consumers have become accustomed to in all aspects of their digital lifestyle faces the automotive infotainment sector. The biggest challenge is with the range of frequently incompatible technologies for getting infotainment in and out of the vehicle and establishing the sure fire strategy that will satisfy customer expectations. Telematics Update's Consumer Telematics Seminar 2008 conference has been created as a platform for visionary companies in the infotainment arena who are keen to clear the challenges and embrace the opportunities ahead for the industry. With BMW and Panasonic contributing to the discussion on wireless connectivity and Microsoft, Mercedes Benz and Pioneer thrashing out the issues with digital rights management this focussed event is a key appointment for your CES schedule. See the event agenda, where navigation, rear seat entertainment and data broadcast services are all up for discussion!

Lexus Intelligent Park Assist Tackles Parallel Parking |
|
Everyone asks the same question. ?Will it find a parking space for me?? Alas, no, but the Lexus Intelligent Park Assist, first made available on the 2007 Lexus LX 460 is still a significant advance in intuitive automotive technology. The system, which is optional, adds $3,425 to the base price of the $69,150 luxury sedan. The Toyota Motor Corporation began to develop the system in 2004 and made it available in 2005 in Japan only on the Prius. Cars equipped with the Intelligent Park Assist are fitted with a camera to the rear of the vehicle, a computer, and a steering sensor. When the driver pulls up to a spot for parallel parking, the vehicle is placed in reverse and the Intelligent Park Assist is activated. The camera places a live image of the parking area on the navigation screen in the center of the console. The image is overlaid with a box and four arrows. Using the arrows, the driver moves the box into the available space by tapping the screen. Once the placement process is complete, the driver touches an activation button on the screen and releases the wheel while keeping his foot on the brake. The car will not stop for pedestrians or objects that may be in its path, so the driver must monitor the maneuver. If the driver takes his foot off the brake, the car immediately stops. Additionally, the correct level of speed must be maintained. If the car is moving too slowly or too quickly, parking will also be halted. Once the vehicle has worked itself into the space, the car must be manually placed in drive and pulled forward to complete the positioning. The Intelligent Park Assist system is not good for tight parking spaces. The area used must be four feet longer than the car itself. That translates to 20.5 feet for the LS 460 and 20.9 feet for the LS 460 L (which has a longer wheelbase.) The camera can also be used for backing the car into a parking space, with the driver only being required to position the vehicle in front of the area so that the camera may image the space. The same guiding principles then apply. Some reviewers who have tested the system complain that the learning curve is sufficiently tricky and long that simply parking the car the old-fashioned way is infinitely easier. Obviously drivers new to the Intelligent Park Assist need to practice with the technology before using it in real-life parking situations. Still, however, with the increased use of cameras in automobiles and with Honda already selling a competing Smart Parking Assist System in Japan, this kind of intuitive technology will become more common in the cars of the future on models more drivers can afford. Designers will continue to refine the execution of the technology, making our vehicles smarter and safer in the process. Step inside the 2008 Saturn Outlook SUV, reviewed by CarSeek.com |

BMW, Connexis LLC and WirelessCar Announce New Approach |

Japanese used car auctions presents themselves as excellent places for you to search and find high performance Japanese manufactured cars for low prices. Very often, you can find thousands of quality used cars such as Supra, Silvia, GTR or Skyline in good condition. Question here is how to import the cars from Japanese used car auctions. The process of importing a Japanese car from a used car auction in Japan does require some effort and work on your part. As such, you really have to consider your options carefully. Why do you want to import a car from Japan when you may be able to find it back at the used car dealership? Very often, the common reasons quoted by importers back in US, Australia and Canada are: 1. They cannot find the car model back where they live. 2. Importing the used cars is much cheaper. You can save a couple thousand dollars that way. 3. Buying the Japanese used cars and then reselling them for huge profits. If you can identify with the above, then the following information would be useful to you when you import cars from Japanese used car auctions. The first step is to locate a Japanese car exporter who can represent you at the used auto auctions in Japan. These are your sales agents who would view the thousands of cars at the auctions and help you to find the exact car models and makes you want. One of the most popular and highly recommended exporters is ?J-Cars?. They have been reputed to be able to sniff out the best auto deals and have a good sense of how to find high performance vehicles in good working condition. Normally, the exporters would check out your requirements and then send you photographs and other relevant information about the car you are looking for. If you want some assurance, you can request for an inspection to be done for around $250 to 300. Once you are ready to bid, you just liaise with your agent and let them place your bids at the Japanese used car auctions. When you win, the agents would then fax or wire the documents you need to register and import the car or cars. Their job as your exporter cum sales agent pretty much ends there when they get your cars onto the freight vessel. From that point onwards, you need to be fully aware of what you should do as an importer. You need to know what are the rules and regulations involving the process to import the cars before you even buy them from Japanese used car auctions. This is key to the whole procedure. This is the summary of the entire process of buying and importing a car from Japan. Sounds straightforward but there are fine details you need to know at each step of the way.
