Car Loan: 2013 Dodge Charger Daytona Debuts at LA Auto Show

Later this week, the LA Auto Show will be kicking off with celebrity appearances, special events, and vehicle debuts. Another popular vehicle has been added to the line-up of show debuts, and fans of the “winged warrior” will be excited to see the 2013 Dodge Charger Daytona at the show.

In a press release from Dodge, Reid Bigland, the President and CEO of the Dodge Brand, called the 2013 Dodge Charger a “modern day muscle car” and praised the car’s powerful core and its “one-of-a-kind interior.”

The 2013 Dodge Charger Daytona will be a limited-production run with only 2,500 units available, and it will go on sale in the beginning of 2013. The Charger will be available in Charger R/T starting from $32,990 and Charger R/T Road & Track starting from $36,495. Most importantly, the Dodge Charger Daytona comes with that signature Charger power with a 370 horsepower HEMI V-8.

Looking through the promo pictures that Dodge released this week, it looks like Dodge has beautifully combined the classic muscle car with a comfortable and modern-looking interior. Interior shots also show off the 8.4-inch Uconnect Touch screen which comes with Bing search, GPS, and hands-free calls and texting.

New Car Financing: Toyota’s New Teaser Trailer for 2013 RAV4

The L.A. Auto Show is almost here, and auto makers are teasing us with all sorts of previews before the show’s official debuts. The latest to jump on the bandwagon is Toyota with their teaser trailer for the 2013 RAV4.

The RAV4 will premiere at a press conference on Wednesday, November 28 as part of the Los Angeles Auto Show. Toyota calls the new RAV4 “a new generation” of car, “embodying sophistication and strength.” Whether it lives up to that praise is yet to be seen, but here is the flashy teaser trailer for the RAV4.

While I am intrigued by the unveiling of the RAV4, the teaser trailer showed very little of the car. The ad had a lot of tight shots and quick cuts, and when it was over, I was disappointed at how little the ad showed off. I get that they don’t want to show off too much before the show, but I was hoping for more than what Toyota gave me.

SEMA Show: Chevy Pushing Compact Concepts, Z-Spec Options

The Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) Show is coming up next week starting October 30 and running through November 2. Parts manufacturers from across the country will be descending upon Las Vegas to browse, network, and see the future of the auto industry. Prior to the show, however, some exhibitors like Chevrolet are giving early previews of what attendees can look forward to.

According to Autoweek, Chevy will be showing off 39 cars at the SEMA Show next week, and most of their focus will be on a number of compact concept vehicles. The Sonic Z-Spec 1, Sonic Z-Spec 2.5, Spark Sinister, Cruze Upscale, and Sonic B-Spec will all be on display, and Chevy will be officially announcing that Z-Spec options will be in production in 2013. Car shoppers can either purchase and install them, or if they are purchasing a new car, they can add the cost of the options onto the price of the car and have the dealership install them.

This news from Chevy shows again that car manufacturers are focusing on compact cars. It is especially telling that Chevy is pushing compact cars at SEMA Show, one of the biggest automotive shows of the year. Also, Chevy’s announcement that Z-Spec options will be available in 2013 proves that they are listening to car shoppers. People have latched onto the idea of their car being customizable and unique to their needs, something that has worked well for the Dodge Dart, and pushing the Z-Spec options is a smart move on Chevy’s part.
