For some Americans, their car or truck simply represents a means of traveling from A to B, and so long as their vehicle is cheap and safe, they have no interest in the specifics.
If, however, you’re firmly in the other camp and live and breathe all things motorcar related, then continue reading for exciting news and opportunities that are right up your street.
McLaren’s New Supercar
McLaren’s impressive GT supercar has been ruling the roost when it comes to personalized and powerful luxury cars, so if you’re a GT fan already, then as of the end of December 2023, a brand-new model has been announced.
McLaren are set to launch their new supercar, the GTS, and with the GT having a starting price of $208,000, you can only imagine how much the new twin-turbocharged engine and an acceleration rate of 0–60 miles per hour in 3.1 seconds is going to cost.
In addition to the standard GT supercar colors, the new McClaren GTS will also come in tanzanite blue, lava gray, mantis green and ice white.
The Top Classic Car Magazines
For those who have a huge passion for classic cars, as well as attending as many classic car shows as possible (ideally in your own classic car, of course), you need to be aware of the plethora of magazines that are dedicated to your specific passion.
The top seven classic car magazines to consider subscribing to in the United States are, in no particular order, as follows:
- Hemmings Classic Car
- Cars & Classic
- Vintage Motorsport
- Classic Motorsports
- Hot Rod
- Classic Driver
- Collectible Automobile
Parts & Supplies
For all things related to moving a valuable motorcar across the country, contact Shiply, the leading automobile shipping company in the US, who will happily arrange for the vehicle to be collected and delivered to your exact specifications.
Alternatively, maybe your interests lie in taking older, slightly weathered (or even entirely scrap-worthy) motorcars and transforming them piece by piece, and either flipping them for a profit or else adding them to your growing collection, and if so, you can start looking online for the parts you need.
Often, small dealerships have random engine parts, as well as other aesthetic additions and other supplies for various cars for makes that they no longer sell or deal with and will be selling such parts at a rock-bottom price.
Secondhand Bargains Galore
The fourth and final exciting piece of news for all things motorcar related is the simple fact that, even though the cost of living has forced more and more people to invest in a secondhand vehicle rather than being able to afford a new one, there are still plenty of secondhand bargains to be had.
Be savvy when you’re searching the internet for your next new car and don’t forget to still check out the advertisements in car magazines, newspapers, and even from private sellers in the doors and windows of stores in your local area. Finally, the golden rule of secondhand car purchases is to always physically inspect the car in person thoroughly, ensuring that you check both the interior and the exterior.
