Wild guess. Who (or what) is the recipient of the Best of What's New award for Popular Science Magazine's automotive category?
Are you thinking Ford? Are you thinking Jaguar? Are you thinking General Motors? Or how about the automatic dimming rearview mirror created by Gentex? How about those Chevy parts that look as if they were made from the future?
If you guessed these, then you are totally wrong.
You see, the recipient of the Best of What's New award for Popular Science Magazine's automotive category is the 2007 Porsche 911 Turbo. This award is actually part of this year's 19th Annual Best of What's New awards by the mentioned magazine.
If you are interested in knowing more about this vehicle and how come it was the one chosen by Popular Science Magazine, then you may want to catch the December issue of the magazine which would soon be hitting newsstands (and perhaps even your favorite bookstore) come the 14th of this month.
According to the editors of Popular Science Magazine, the 2007 Porsche 911 Turbo was chosen because it used the Porsche variable turbine geometry (or the VTG) setup. Such was first developed and used in the mentioned vehicle. And this was also created with the assistance and cooperation of yet another company - the Borg Warner Turbo Systems.
Many are not yet quite familiar with this vehicle, after all, it has only been on sale just this summer. However, this award just goes to see that even the newest could also be the best.
As per the VTG setup, the technology was actually based on the type of technology that has been used in previous years by diesel engines that were used in early 1990s units. The technology has been quite successful for such vehicles and Porsche did believe that it could also work well for the 2007 Porsche 911 Turbo.
Experts in the industry do say that such a concept is quite alike to other manufacturers of turbo who make use of variable nozzle or geometry compressors. These other manufacturers also do make use of a system that was for a short time used on some series of gasoline production engines.

Think Your Car Is Safe From Theft? Guess Again!
What do a 1995 Honda Civic, a 1991 Honda Accord, and a 1989 Toyota Camry have in common with a 1997 Ford F-150 and a 1994 Chevy C/K 1500 pickup? According to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, you guessed correctly if you said they all top the list for the most stolen cars in the US over the last two years! Surprisingly, auto thieves do not typically target the new cars with all the bells and whistles, instead preferring the somewhat more innocuous and less visible older car. The reason thieves target older vehicles are varied:
• These vehicles provide the best market for parts resale.
• Older cars do not have the newest security features and therefore it's easier to circumvent security.
• There are a greater number of older cars on the road; their theft is less conspicuous and less expected.
• Drivers become more complacent as their cars age, and are more likely to leave cars open and unprotected.
According to a 2006 statistic, a car is stolen every 26.4 seconds. Though auto theft is on the decline overall, current economic conditions suggest crime rates are expected to soar in coming months as people become more desperate. In addition, even though auto theft has been on the decline, it still represents the most expensive form of property crime in the US today.
The NICB offers the idea of "layered protection" for your vehicle. Thieves will steal whatever they can if given sufficient time, so the idea is to fortify your car with as many "layers" as you can and within the scope of your budget. The more layers of protection you add, the more difficult your car will be to steal since thieves will be more likely to move on to an easier target.
1. Common Sense - On cold winter days, nearly every one of us has been guilty of leaving the car running with the doors unlocked as we run back into the house for a forgotten item. And during the hot summer months, who doesn't leave their windows open slightly in order to keep the car cooler? Thieves pick up on these visual cues and recognize when your car is most vulnerable. Since it takes an experienced car thief only about a minute to gain access to your car, they will be in and out before you know it. Always lock doors, close windows, and remove keys and valuables from your car. No matter how quick the trip.
2. Warning Device - Visual cues are important to preventing theft. Don't keep thieves guessing; let them know you have anti-theft devices installed to deter the theft and vandalism of your vehicle. Car alarms are the most obvious audible cue, however steering column locks (clubs), decals, and identification stickers that are visibly located are all clues to a thief that your car is going to require a great deal of work to steal.
3. Security Films - Once a thief is in your vehicle - even if they cannot steal it - they can do a lot of damage. It's therefore imperative to stop them from ever getting in by installing security window films such as VehicleGARD that make the glass harder to break. Even after several forceful blows, the criminal will likely abandon any attempt and move on because they will simply be creating too much attention-getting noise. The key is to keep intruders out in the first place.
4. Immobilizers - Kill switches and smart keys prevent thieves from hot wiring your car in the event they do gain access to your vehicle. Though typically costly, some insurance companies offer a reduction in insurance rates for those who install immobilizers.
5. Tracking Device - If you have followed all of the previous suggestions, it will be very unlikely your car will even be a target, let alone actually stolen. Tracking devices are a last resort that help recover your stolen vehicle.

1996 Chevy Impala has had an audible alarm on freeway exit ramps; manual does not mention this. What is it?
My father's 1996 Impala has had an audible warning alarm bell go off twice, both times on freeway exit ramps. No warning light came on at the same time. The manual makes no mention (that I can find) on audible alarms. The car has no theft alarm. What's going on here?
Many of the newer cars will sound an alarm if the turn signal remains on for an extended period of time. Next time you hear the alarm try turning off the blinker for a few seconds.
