Eight years old, and it still has it
0-60 mph in 4.4 seconds going on to 198 mph and costs about $1000 for each of those mph. In its second iteration, the Continental GT’s exterior styling has been made crisper and the shape looks a bit statelier without diminishing its beauty.
Research Summary
Website car sales are more convenient than traditional car sales for customers because it is very easy to access Internet with any kind of digital devices, and it takes only a few seconds to find a car sale website; besides, customers can search any cars they like and get any information without going out to the dealership store. Moreover, website car sales is more efficient than traditional car sales for dealership, as it cost less than traditional dealerships, and Internet car sale allow more customers to see the cars they got, which are not only for local customers but also for the customers that out side of state. Furthermore, website car sale is the trend for the future, for the development of car sale website and the growth of Internet user’s population which lead people to shop their cars through Internet.
The most valid point in my paper is that website car sale is more convenient than traditional car sales, because it is easier to access Internet and browse the car website. Also it only take a few seconds to do that, moreover, people can receive a lot of information on the website. This point help supporting my idea that website car sale affect traditional car sale a lot.
The people who are interested in my website could make their own website and blog to tell others that website car sale is a good way to improve car sales. Besides, if one of them is a car salesman in a dealer, he can tell to his manager about this.
Preparation for real research paper
I. Thesis/central argument: How does car sales affected by internet and social networks. a. Main points of paper: 1. How the internet and social networks affect car sales. 2. What the history of car sale is. b. Types of experts consulted: car sellers, statistician, and social network builder. c. Overall argument: The internet and social network do affect the way of car sales. II. Main point 1 a. Evidence (quote, concept, idea, statistic, fact, story from personal experience, info from a non-academic source, etc.): Nowadays, more and more people choose internet as their tools to buy and sell their cars. They go to website like cars.com to search what they want, not as before to go to each car dealers finding the best deal. “It is no surprise that brick and mortar car dealerships have decided that expanding online was the next logical step towards increasing their sales and service divisions” (Hunting) . b. Explanation (why is this important, why should the reader care about this, why does this evidence matter): Cars are the everyday tool that people used, we need cars to get to our destination, and they are our friends. If we want to buy a car or exchange a car, we have to know what is going on right now, how people find their dream cars in an efficient way. From the quoting we get that online sales is the trend of future car sales. c. Analysis (compare and contrast different kinds of evidence, argue against a piece of evidence, break the evidence down into its components): “We find that the average customer of this online service pays approximately 2% less for her car, which corresponds to about $450 for the average car” (Morton). Beside the last evidence that we got, here we found that online service pays less than regular car sale; consequently, more and more people choose to get their cars online. d. Evaluation of this viewpoint in relation to thesis (how does this point connect to overall argument of paper?): This evidence clearly shows the effect of internet that brings a big impact to car sales, so the internet and social networks do affect the regular car sales a lot, and it will change the traditional way in the future. III. Main point 2
A. evidence: “In 1990 there were 6,330 dealerships with sales of fewer than 150 new vehicles per year. In 2010 there were 4,161 such dealerships, a 34% decline” (Loechner). This evidence shows that the car sale has declined since 1990.
Explain: We know that since 1990, car sales in dealerships has declined, however, is this related to internet and social network car services, we need to find out.
Analysis: The reason that the car sales in dealerships has declined is that the internet has grow up, and affected the dealerships in the United States.
Evaluation: This evidence clearly tells us that car sales in dealerships have affected by the internet and social network car services.
a. Summary of all the evidence: the internet has affected the traditional car sales a lot, now more dealership expand their online services, and less dealership operating in the store; also online car sale is less expensive than regular car sales. b. What audience should think about by the end of the paper: car sellers, buyers c. Recommendations to the audience: if you want to buy a car, first search it online, and see the feedback from other people, when you feel this is what you want, and then go to the dealer to test it. d. Impact statement (a statement of what you want to leave your audience with): My purpose is to introduce online car sale to people who do not know it yet, and I also want the dealers in China could affect by my paper considering selling cars online.
I create a new page called communication, i want people who have visited my website to leave some comments there, thus i can communicate with them and share our experiences and ideas.

When a Porsche Turbo S isn’t enough. Built as an homage to the original 1967 Porsche Sicherheitscabriolet (“Safety Cabriolet,” aka Targa), Ruf starts with a 911 Turbo S Coupe and chops the top half off. In its place, a shortened windshield, robust chassis-integrated rollbar, removable 2-piece Alcantara-lined carbon roof and soft-zippered folding polyglass window form the basis of the new silhouette.
Add to this custom aero-enhanced front and rear fascias (with Ruf’s signature intercooler ducts), sport mirrors, fixed carbon wing and a special matte-gray iridescent paint, and you’ve got the short list for why someone would pay €330,000 for this car.

C-R-A-P Principle
Contrast: the background of my website will be black, and the theme will be a city at night. For the title of my website, I will use white, thick, big size words. I am creating a car website, and the cars that I like are usually driven in the cities. So I choose city at night to be my theme. Using white words is to contrast with the black background. I think some of the elements should have high contrast like the words and the theme, but some detail should have low contrast because if not the website looks having too much colors which is not good.
Repetition: I will make a bullet of sub-title at the left of my home page. And each content is repeating in a same font and size. These repetitions will give reader a clear sense of my website, and can easily find what they want to see.
Alignment: The bullet of the subtitle will align left, and the content will align right. Also the main title will align central left. Because we get used to read from left to right, so I align the bullet to the left. Readers can find what they want to read easier. And then I align the content to the right, because I do not want every on the left.
Proximity: The main title and the subtitles will have a big proximity, but the proximity between subtitles is small. Because main title is the overall summarize of my website, it should be individual. But subtitles are related to each other.
Creative Commons
Creative Commons is a community where people could share ideas, exchange ideas, and communicate freely.
It is different from regular copyright, because people do not need to afraid of copy others, everybody in the community share everything and exchange everything, and no copyright.
From my point of view, it is a good ideas but I do not think Creative Commons is a possible solution to the problems Lessig raises, because not everyone thinks their creations should be freely used by others. If people can use others creations freely, it is the same as communism. However, nowadays, everyone has their own property and no one wants their property to be use by others freely.
