Compact Cars

In the world of high-performance builds, attention to detail sets great cars apart from the rest. That’s why Factory Performance™ Parts, a division of PROFORM® Parts, has taken a fresh approach to a time-tested workhorse with the launch of the new Slant-Edge 100 Amp Alternators—a stylish, high-output evolution of the iconic GM 10SI. Designed for those who care as much about what’s under the hood as how it looks when the hood is up, the Slant-Edge delivers form and function in equal measure.

Advanced Fuel Dynamics is set to revolutionize the fuel sensor market with their new E-Sense high-flow performance-grade fuel content sensor. This sensor offers a competitively priced, top-tier alternative to the GM/Continental sensor, designed with cutting-edge technology to provide enhanced performance for high-flow fuel systems. It is an essential upgrade for enthusiasts and professionals alike.

We aren’t exactly sure what draws people toward these cars. Maybe it’s their clean body lines, or maybe it’s the fact that there have been so many built over the past decade or so that you just can’t escape their presence.

Whether you’re in the driver’s seat or looking underneath the hood, it’s the first place enthusiasts come to find out what a car is all about. After all, without the right engine package, everything we long for in our cars would be nothing more than static displays of creative artistry.

Many companies in the automotive industry have developed a reputation for building crazy cars.

Not only do these vehicles bring excellent exposure to these companies, but they also show the public what creative minds can do with specific vehicles.

Many people believe that mankind as we know it evolved from primates…not the monkeys that you’d find at your local zoo, but rather from a very basic, upright-walking being that had thought protocols to find food and shelter without getting eaten in the process. The same can be said about the unmodified car, as it’s basically a vehicle to transport its occupants from point A to point B, maybe even with a little style built in if you’re lucky.
