In love with cars?! Yes! And do you know that there exists a line of cars that is called YES? This little sports car was introduced in the 2008 Chicago auto show, by Funke & Will AG. The speculative minds have studied the features that may capture car lovers, specifically those in love with sports cars.

Just a glimpse of the 2008 YES Roadster 3.2 will surely make you utter that “WOW!” for its cool looks that will definitely cause a lot of street heads to turn just to see this car again.

The Roadster weighs around 2000 lbs, about the same weight as Lotus Elise. The performance is also similar with Lotus but could be availed in a much higher price. Roadster 3.2 makes a horsepower of 255 and will reach 60mph in just 4.8 seconds and could be availed at $77,995. To get the turbocharged version to add another 100 hp and a much faster 0-60 mph in 3.8 seconds, could cost you $20,000 more while another $7,995 could give it a total of 415 hp. Removable hard top, heated seats and nav system are also available, but for another extra cost. The Roadster is just another proof that it really pays to have a beautiful car.

To have a good view of the road, you should always keep and maintain a clear windshield. Your windshield may be made of glass or plastic that when suffered from a little crack could lead to propagation to make an even bigger and more noticeable crack.

You may sometimes drive along rocky roads and a stone may hit your windshield that could cause a little crack on it. A lot of people may think that an immediate replacement would be the only solution to get rid of this problematic windshield but a little repair could get rid of it and let you save a lot.

Windshield repairs are already offered in auto repair shops. The repair includes the use of an advanced technology to prevent that crack from propagating. Cleaning and filling the damaged area are the major steps in the repair. The windshield must be properly cleaned to ensure that no dirt will be trapped inside the glass and it must be dried as well to prevent the windshield from cracking again on the same area. A resin is used to fill the crack and the curing process is aided by ultraviolet light. The clarity of the repaired portion may slightly vary from the unaffected portions.

After the repair, your windshield is almost as good as new, with lots of dollars saved for having the repair instead of the total replacement. You just have to find a reliable windshield repair provider to minimize that blurred portion after the repair.
