These headlights look nice, and increase visibility as they say. If you're looking for a superbright bulb, these aren't what they seem to be. They have a pure-white look, which looks nice. Overall 4/5

Editorial Review :: Sylvania SilverStar Ultra High Performance Halogen Headlight is fashioned for brighter and whiter light. It has dual filament for both high beam and low beam. This operates with internal gas pressure which significantly reduces the rate of tungsten evaporation. Its analogous non-halogen incandescent lamp operates the same filament temperature with greater luminance and efficiency. This combined effect of higher pressure and the halogen cycle give halogen lamp much longer life.

I grew up as a teenager when Motion Performance was retrofitting cars with big block chevy power and read about them in all the car magazines. When on vacation with my family in NY, my father was nice enough to take a taxi ride with me to Long Island to visit Baldwin Chevrolet and Motion.

I have very fond memories of that trip and can still hear the wonderful sounds of the cars being prepped at Motion for customer delivery. There is nothing sweeter than the sound of open headers on a hi-po 427 chevy "slobbering" at idle in the drive way.

This book has wonderful pictures and captures the essence of those times. The EPA killed the muscle car and took all the fun out growing up.

It was a driver's dream: Along with the full factory warranty, your car came with a guarantee of 11.5-second quarter-mile times. It was also Joel Rosen's dream, and in 1964, he set out to make it a reality. First he built fast cars. Then, taking a page from Ford's "win on Sunday, sell on Monday" strategy, he built a reputation by beating all comers on drag strips and in street races. By 1967, Rosen's Motion Performance was the place to go if you wanted a true muscle car--and, if you ordered a Baldwin-Motion Chevrolet, a muscle car with a full factory warranty. Motion Performance tells the inside story of how it all happened. Brilliantly illustrated with period pictures and modern color photos, the book takes readers along as Cobras, Chevrolets, Oldsmobiles, even Volkswagen Beetles roll into the shop to get torn down and rebuilt into cars unbeatable on the streets and drag strips. Marty Schorr gives a first-hand account of seven years of high-performance life--and of how it all came to a screeching halt at the hands of the U.S. Department of Transportation and the Environmental Protection Agency. A once-in-a-lifetime tale of power and speed, told by one of the principals who put that performance within reach, Motion Performance makes the story of a briefly and thrillingly lived dream available to everyone.

I adore the Cars so much that I try to overlook the strangely edited personal footage in between the great concert performances . (I gave this dvd 5 stars because of the concert footage.) I wish it made more sense and there were serious interviews in between the silliness and nonsense. It makes your head swim a bit, and it's really not fun watching Elliot and the rest throw food, in fact I was surprised at that (and there are other unidentified people in the footage that make you wonder who they are and an explanation of some sort.) I wanted to see more of the guys interaction with each other,(hear their voices and see their real personalities) as it's tough enough to find photographs, books and footage of them as it is. It makes you yearn for more, especially footage of beautiful Benjamin, who has sadly left us. Anything with him in it is more than precious, he was so private.
When they show a performance, I also wished they'd inform us where that footage took place. They only give you a title and a year. There is one particular sound check that Greg Hawkes is playing some beautiful piece of music (not Cars music) on the keyboards, it doesn't last long but it's a nice glimpse nonetheless. I would have loved to see a still photo collection in the extra section, also. I'm glad to have this dvd, haven't yet listened to the cd but certainly will. I've been an avid fan since they started in the 70s and I still think it's worth your while to own it if you love them as much as I do.

I'm always interested in what others have to say about items that I might buy. I'm also always humored by two things:

"I just got X in the last week but here's what I think..."

AND

"It's so difficult to set up..."

I don't usually write a review, but had to in this case. The Baby Jogger Performance Single Car Seat Adapter is simple to set up, contrary to what MANY reviewers have stated. I'm not an engineer or a mechanic. I use my hands, but that's only to stick needles into people to cure diseases.

Basically, I took the Adapter, lined up the screw holes to the Jogger, and screwed the thing in. It took me about ten minutes, mostly because I was trying to find my screwdriver that my three year-old had borrowed.

Good luck. It's a great item and my wife already loves it. Oh, and we've had it only about a week...hahaha.
