'17 Acura NSX（ホットホイール2016シリーズ）

アキュラ（アキュラ・アキュラ？）は、日本の自動車メーカー、ホンダの高級車です。このブランドは、1986年3月に米国とカナダで発売され、高級車、高性能車、高性能車を販売しています。 1991年に香港、2004年にメキシコ、2006年に中国、2014年にロシア、2015年にクウェートに導入された。ホンダは2008年に国内市場にアキュラを導入する予定であったが、 2008年の金融危機の結果として保留された。

アキュラは、日本初の自動車用高級ブランドとしての差別を受けています。アキュラの創設は、高級車を販売していたホンダクリオと呼ばれるJDMホンダディーラー販売チャネルの導入、以前に設立されたホンダVernoに続いて、ホンダプリモに続く翌年に導入されました。最初の数年間、Acuraは米国で最も売れていた高級ブランドのひとつだった。 1990年代半ばから後半にかけて販売は減少しましたが、劇的な再設計と新型モデルの導入により、2000年代初めに復活しました。

創業以来、アキュラは自動車産業の先駆者でした。 1980年代後半、同社初のフラッグシップ車であるレジェンドの成功は、日本の自動車メーカートヨタと日産がそれぞれ独自の高級ブランド、レクサスとインフィニティを投入するよう促しました。 1990年に発売された中型エキゾチックなスポーツカーであるNSXは、ヨーロッパのスポーツカーに代わる信頼性の高い実用的な代替車を提供し、北米市場にはホンダのVTEC可変バルブタイミングシステムを導入しました。 1993年伝説のクーペはホンダが6速マニュアルトランスミッションを最初に使用し、タイプIIエンジンと組み合わされています。 1990年代後半には、軽量化、剛性と低サスペンション、高出力のVTECエンジンを特長とする、コンパクトなIntegraクーペのType Rバージョンを生産しました。

2000年代初めに、同社の最初のすべてのオリジナルSUVであるMDXとIntegraクーペとセダンを置き換えた2つのモデルであるRSXとTSXを含む新しいモデルがAcuraによって導入されました。この10年間で、RSX、CL、TLのタイプSバージョンがブランドのラインナップに追加されました。アキュラの2005年のRLフラッグシップは、トルクベクトル化全輪駆動システムであるSH-AWDを発表しました。クロスオーバーSUVの2007 RDXは北米初のターボチャージャー型のホンダエンジンを搭載しています。 2010年代、アキュラは、ILX、TLX、RLXなどの新モデルをデビューしました。後者はAcuraのJewel Eye LEDヘッドライトを発表しました。第2世代のNSXは2015年に発売され、ツインターボエンジンのミッドエンジン、9スピードのデュアルクラッチトランスミッション、スポーツハイブリッドSH-AWDを搭載しています。.

'17 For GT (Hot Wheels 2016 series)

The Ford GT is an American mid-engine two-seater sports car that was produced by Ford for the 2005 and 2006 model years. The designers drew inspiration from Ford's GT40 racing cars of the 1960s.
A completely redesigned Ford GT is planned to enter production in 2016 as a 2017 model.
At the 2015 North American International Auto Show and at the unveiling of Forza Motorsport 6, a new Ford GT was introduced and is set to be produced and released in 2016. It will mark 50 years since the GT40 won the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans and has run successfully in the 2016 24 Hours of Le Mans to mark the anniversary, winning their class.

The car is to be powered by a newly designed 3.5 liter twin-turbocharged EcoBoost V6 engine making over 600 hp (450 kW). According to Ford, "the GT will exhibit one of the best power-to-weight ratios of any production car," thanks to its lightweight carbon fiber construction. Underpinning the GT is a carbon fiber monocoque bolted to aluminum front and rear subframes covered in carbon fiber body panels. The car also has racing inspired pushrod suspension, active aerodynamics, and dihedral doors. The windshield of the vehicle is made of Gorilla Glass manufactured by Corning, which is also used for smartphone screens. Gorilla Glass is used to reduce the weight of the vehicle by allowing for a thinner windscreen with the same strength.

Beginning in December 2016, Ford plans to build the GT at a rate of one car per day until October 2020. 2017 and 2018 model year vehicles will be reserved for selected GT buyers, 2019 vehicles for buyers passed over in the initial selection process, and 2020 vehicles for new customers.

'73 BMW 3.0 CSL Race Car Black Model (Hot Wheels 2016)

The BMW New Six CS (internal name BMW E9) was a two-door coupé built for BMW by Karmann from 1968 to 1975. It was developed from the New Class-based BMW 2000 CS coupé, which was enlarged to hold the BMW M30 straight-6 engine used in the E3 sedan.

The E9 platform, especially the 3.0 CSL homologation special, was very successful in racing, especially in European Touring Car Championship and the Deutsche Rennsport Meisterschaft. This helped to establish BMW's status as a sporty driver's car.

Introduced in May 1972, the 3.0 CSL was a homologation special built to make the car eligible for racing in the European Touring Car Championship. 1,265 were built.

The "L" in the designation meant leicht (light), unlike in other BMW designations, where it meant lang (long). The lightness was achieved by using thinner steel to build the unit body, deleting the trim and soundproofing, using aluminium alloy doors, bonnet, and boot lid, and using Perspex side windows. The five hundred 3.0 CSLs exported to the United Kingdom were not quite as light as the others, as the importer had insisted on retaining the soundproofing, electric windows, and stock E9 bumpers on these cars. The CSL was never sold in the United States.

Initially using the same engine as the 3.0 CS, the 3.0 CSL was given a very small increase in displacement to 3,003 cc (183.3 cu in) by increasing the engine bore by one quarter of a millimetre. This was done in August 1972 to allow the CSL to be raced in the "over three litre" racing category, allowing for some increase in displacement in the racing cars. In 1973, the engine in the 3.0 CSL was given another, more substantial increase in displacement to 3,153 cc (192.4 cu in) by increasing the stroke to 84 mm (3.3 in). This final version of the 3.0 CSL was homologated in July 1973 along with an aerodynamic package including a large air dam, short fins running along the front fenders, a spoiler above and behind the trailing edge of the roof, and a tall rear wing. The rear wings were not installed at the factory, but were left in the boot for installation after purchase. This was done because the wings were illegal for use on German roads. The full aero package earned the racing CSLs the nickname "Batmobile".

In 1973, Toine Hezemans won the European Touring Car Championship in a 3.0 CSL and co-drove a 3.0 CSL with Dieter Quester to a class victory at Le Mans. Hezemans and Quester had driven to second place at the 1973 German Touring Car Grand Prix at Nürburgring, being beaten only by Chris Amon and Hans-Joachim Stuck in another 3.0 CSL. 3.0 CSLs would win the European Touring Car Championship again in every year from 1975 to 1979.

The 3.0 CSL was raced in the IMSA GT Championship in 1975, with Sam Posey, Brian Redman, and Ronnie Peterson winning races during the season.

The first two BMW Art Cars were 3.0 CSLs; the first was painted by Alexander Calder and the second by Frank Stella.

The 3.5 CSL was built for Group 5 racing and BMW won three races in the 1976 World Championship for Makes with this model.

'67 Chevy C10 (Hot Wheels 2016 series)

The C/K was Chevrolet and GMC's full-size pickup truck line from 1960 until 2002 in the United States, from 1965 to 1999 in Canada, from 1964 to 2001 in Brazil, and from 1975 to 1982 in Chile. The first Chevrolet pickup truck came out in 1924, though in-house designs did not appear until 1930. "C" indicated two-wheel drive and "K" indicated four-wheel drive. The aging C/K light-duty pickup truck was replaced with the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra names in 1999 in the US and Canada, and 2001 in Brazil; the Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD heavy-duty pickup trucks followed. Until this time, the names Silverado and Sierra were used to identify the trim level of the C/K trucks.

For the first Chevrolet C Series, made from 1911 to 1913, see Chevrolet Series C Classic Six, (the first Chevy).

A new, more modern look came in 1967, along with a new nickname: "Action Line". It was with this revision of the C/K truck that General Motors began to add comfort and convenience items to a vehicle line that had previously been for work purposes alone. Updated styling features for the 1967 Chevy Pickup trucks came with new body sheet metal that helps fight rust and a pickup box made of double-walled steel. The majority of 10 and 20 series Chevrolet trucks from 1967 to 1972 were built with a coil spring trailing arm rear suspension, which greatly improved the ride over traditional leaf springs. However, the leaf spring rear suspension was still available on those trucks, and standard on 30 series trucks. The front suspension on all Chevrolet trucks were independent front suspension with coil springs. GMC models came standard with leaf springs with coils springs optional; all four-wheel drive models (Chevrolet and GMC) had leaf springs on both axles. 

1967 was the only year for the "small rear window" (RPO A10 offered a large rear window as a factory option). The standard drivetrain came with a three-speed manual transmission and one of two engines; the 250 in3 straight six or the 283 cu in (4.6 L) V8. The optional transmissions were the four-speed manual, the Powerglide and the Turbo-Hydramatic 350 and 400. The 292 six and the 327 in3 V8 were the optional engines. The 1/2 ton trucks came with a 6 x 5.5–inch bolt pattern, the 3/4 and 1 ton trucks came with an 8 x 6.5–inch bolt pattern.
