The Lamborghini Miura, and the Nissan Skyline GT-R is two of today's most extreme cars. There's also the Subaru BRZ tS and the Honda Civic Type-R. These are not necessarily cars but they are definitely unique and cool. So what's the coolest car in America? Let's take a look. We hope this list inspires and motivates you to hop behind the wheel one of these magnificent beasts.
The Lamborghini Miura
In 1966, the Lamborghini Miura supercar was sold for a staggering price. The Miura, which cost $20,000 per piece, was considered a unique machine. There were only 275 units made and they were a huge success. The Miura featured a very attractive waistline, wide windscreen and a high flat roof, which was 1050mm off the ground. It featured twin-circular LED headlamps derived directly from the Fiat 850 Spider.
The Nissan Skyline GT-R
In 1969, the first man to orbit the moon was successfully launched, and the 747 became its first public appearance. Japanese car buyers are looking for the latest technology. The car is a perfect example of all these characteristics. Skyline GT-R is a highly sought-after Japanese car. It is hard to find the original car, but Nissan was able to revive the GT-R badge with turbocharged power.
The Honda Civic Type-R
It's no surprise that Honda Civic Type-R is the most well-known and beloved car in the world. The sleek design of the Honda Civic Type-R has a sporty appeal. The front of the car is decorated with three exhaust tips and multiple scoops. It is notable for its rear wing. The Type-R doesn't offer as much as the older versions but still offers an exceptional driving experience.
Subaru BRZtS
The Subaru BRZ tS limited edition model costs $34,000 It's both a speedster on the track, and a street-ready beauty. The car's chassis experts know their stuff. The vehicle has low ground clearance which makes traction difficult, especially when driving on slippery roads. The tS is a great vehicle for downhill runs, even though it's not the most fun to drive on the Californian canyon roads.
Toyota 2000 GT
The Toyota 2000 GT was one the earliest sports cars built. It was made in collaboration by Nissan. The idea for the project was first conceived in December 1964. On September 8, 1965, two companies signed a technology-sharing agreement. The design team consisted of Toyota engineers Shinichi Yamazaki and Hidemasa Takagi, test driver Eizo Matsuda, and design assistant/development driver Shihomi Hosoya. Shoichi Saito, a Toyota industrial designer, was responsible for the project. Toyota industrial designer Satoru Nazaki designed the car's shape. He used a full-size wooden Buck as an inspiration.
Ford Bronco
The Ford Bronco is probably one of the coolest cars ever created. Its name convention is "GOAT", which means "Goes Over Any Terrain." The eight-speed auto transmission offers seven driving modes, including eco, sport, rock crawl, mud/ruts and normal. The base Bronco comes with five driving modes, while the Wildtrak option offers seven.
The Volvo G80
We found that the G80 was by far the most stylish car on the market. Even though the G80 comes at a high price, it is an amazing value. Its luxurious cabin is the pinnacle of Swedish engineering. Its driver-centric focus also means that it's less expensive than some other comparable models. The G80's 3.5T engine produces a smooth and refined ride, with an ample sound to match. It's not a sports sedan though, with a 5.1 second time to go from 0-60 mph. A tall person might be concerned that their hair might rub against the headliner at either the front of the driver-side bench or the back. On the other hand, sub-six-footers won't have any trouble with this, and the

An automotive technician needs to be more technically skilled than a mechanic. They should be able read blueprints and use tools like drills and wrenches.
They must be able and competent to safely perform complicated procedures. They must also be familiar with different types of engines and electrical systems.
They must also be able to understand how various parts interact with each other.
As a result, a mechanic usually earns less money than an automotive technician. However, both careers offer great opportunities.
Can I work as an auto mechanic without a degree? Can I study part time?
A degree isn't necessary, but it certainly helps. Most employers prefer candidates who have studied for a full degree rather than those who haven't. It shows that you've worked hard and are determined to succeed.
But, this doesn't mean you have to stop working while studying. Some universities permit students to do coursework during summer holidays and complete their studies later in a year. Students can also take classes part time throughout the academic year.
