Why Do We Love Exotic Cars

 I have a good friend that could care less about cars. He drives his Toyota Tundra around and keeps it in a pretty filthy state. For guys like him, I wonder what happened? He's mentioned on several occasions that cars don't mean that much to him. I think he's a great guy, but something must have happened in his "car" gene. I then think, what guy doesn't love a great looking car? There are the rare few, like my friend, but for the rest of us, the "Car Gene" is alive and well.

 For myself, I have to say, I liken myself as a general car guy. There are Porsche purist, like another good friend, that names will be left out, but he's so hung up on Porsches, that he doesn't even give other cars a second glance. There are Ferrari guys, Lambo guys, Lotus guys, Vette guys, Viper guys and the list goes on. Personally,  I like all kinds of cars, but of course, mostly exotic, rare sports cars that are fast and have

 incredible handling. Looking back on my youth, my dad wasn't particularly into cars and frankly, didn't really take care of the ones he had. He trashed (and still does) more cars than I care to remember. So, for the rest of us, those that ogle and stare when we see an exotic car, tare through the magazines at the local super market, or surf all the exotic car background web sites, why do we love these Exotic Cars?

 Frankly, I don't have a general answer, but I know why I personally like them. I have several reasons and the top on my list is just how incredible they look. Cars are part of our every day life and the "regular" cars sitting in most peoples driveway are, well, boring. They're safe, conservative and just plane ugly. There are a few that are nice looking, like most Mercedes and BMW's are more popular than before and are nice looking, Mazda has some nice lines, Infinities are nice, Nissan and Hyundai have some good cars, but it's that rare

car, high-end, exotic sports car that is just so damn good looking. Sexy is usually the thought that comes to my mind and is my criteria. While there are cars with the title exotic cars, like the Lotus Elan and Noble, they just don't have it in the looks department. The Elan, while rare and a cool old car, it's quit frankly ugly as home-made soap (Sorry Elan owners). Now, I know good looks are in the eye of the beholder, but there's nothing sexier than the Lotus Elise lines or a low slung Ferrari or Lamborghini.

Then, there's speed. Raw power and speed to go along with the sexy looks. I remember in the 80's the Countach were the cool exotic car, but the power wasn't all that great. Now, Lamborghini's, Ferraris and Porsche have exceeded such power limits that it's staggering.

Combine a sexy looking car and the knowledge that it'll move faster than the speed of light and you have one awesome reason to love it. For those of us that have the strong "Car Gene", it doesn't get any better than that.

Enjoy a Top Notch Vehicle From an Exotic Car Rental Company

 World famous celebrities such as Madonna, Simon Cowell and others are some of the usual clients who rent exotic cars from exotic rental car companies in the USA. The question arises well why can't you do the same?

Celebrate and rent a top of the line car for a day, weekend or even a week. Wouldn't that be a special birthday or anniversary gift for someone. If your accounts agree with you then you maybe able to lease it, or even own it on a fractional ownership basis.

 In the real world if you approach a dealership about renting it they would dismiss you pretty quickly and tend to some real business instead of a fantasy walk-in customer. You cannot get an exotic car as a rental from a dealership primarily because of liability and insurance complications.

 Although, similar to renting a standard car like a VW Bug or Nissan, Mustang or SUV, you can rent a super exotic car directly from a car rental agency that specializes in these type of vehicles. Now you are one step closer to a 200 mph car. Although, we do not advocate going maximum speed in these cars.

BMW M1 - The Car BMW and Lamborghini Built

 What if you took two companies that had contrasting, unique strengths with cars and put them together to build a car emphasizing both of their traits? Well, that's exactly what happened in the 1970s when BMW and Lamborghini got together to build a legendary car - the BMW M1.

 The BMW M1 was a car built in a soap opera environment of sorts. The problem wasn't BMW, but Lamborghini. BMW had retained the Italian exotic sports car company to design the M1. Alas, Lamborghini was having major financial problems at the time and ended up going bankrupt half way through the project. BMW was thus forced to take the car back and complete the project on its own.

 These odd circumstances led to an odd car. The first M1s look more or less exactly like you might think they would if Lamborghini did half the work and then handed the car off to BMW and did not consult on the rest of the project. The car has some of the swooping designs you see with all Lamborghinis, but also some of the typical lines you see in BMW. Put together, the car looks something like...a DeLorean. To some, this is a beautiful design. To others, it is not.

 The BMW M1 was sold to the public for only three years - 1978-81. The sales for this period totaled 456 cars, the smallest production line in the history of BMW. Oddly, the base engine was a 6 cylinder, with twin cams and produced a top speed in the 160 miles per hour range. Other BMW models were later given the M1 version, but they were just upgrades of the respective base production cars and not real M1s.

It must be said that the powers at BMW really liked the M1. They actually started a PRO M1 racing series that restricted teams to using just the M1 car. The series became a launching pad for Formula One drivers. The iconic Ferrari driver Niki Lauda won two PRO M1 championships and future F1 Champ Nelson Piquet won one. BMW still supports the series today although M1s long ago were phased out in exchange for 3 series cars.Why write about a car nearly 30 years old? Well, BMW is considering updating the car and releasing a modern version. It is called the M1 Homage Concept. The car has only been seen once, but it just looks brutally wicked in a good way. The current economic environment has stopped BMW and other companies from pursuing such projects, but expect the car to get some attention when the economic situation improves. I honestly don't care for the original M1 design, but the Homage Concept looks like an absolutely beautiful and aggressive car design worth every penny of what will certainly be a very high price.
