TALLADEGA, AL (April 26) – Chevrolet dominated Sunday’s Aaron’s 499 NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Talladega Superspeedway!
Impalas driven by Kevin Harvick, Jamie McMurray and Juan Montoya finished 1-3. Then, with Mark Martin finishing fifth and Clint Bowyer running seventh, three positions ahead of Mike Bliss, Chevrolet put six Impalas in the top 10.
Harvick took the inside line past McMurray during the third and final green-white-checker restart and beating the 2010 Daytona 500 champion under the checkered flag by .011 seconds.
The ultra-competitive race set NASCAR Sprint Cup records for the number of leaders (29) and lead changes (88). The race, extended 12 laps beyond its scheduled distance of 188 laps, was the first victory for Richard Childress Racing since Jeff Burton won at Charlotte Motor Speedway on October 11, 2008.
“It really played out perfect for us today,” said Harvick, who won his 12th Cup Series race, his first at Talladega. “We planned to ride around in the back, wait ’til 50 laps to go and really push forward after that.”
Impalas have won six of the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series’ first nine races in 2010.
Harvick’s first victory in 115 races pushed him into second place in the Sprint Cup standings, just 26 points behind fellow Impala driver Jimmie Johnson. Martin, who drives the #5 GoDaddy.com Chevrolet, improved four positions to sixth. Impala drivers Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Jeff Gordon rank eighth and 10th, respectively.
Jupiter Chevrolet has plenty of high-performance Impalas to choose from. For your safety, they don’t come with the 800-horsepower engines like those driven in Sprint Cup competition. The Impalas Jupiter Chevrolet will send you home in are equipped with On-Star, XM Radio, four-wheel anti-lock brakes, StabiliTrack, air bags and travel up to 29 miles on a gallon of gas. So drop by Jupiter Chevrolet at 11611 LBJ Freeway in Garland, test drive a Impala and drive one home today!

The automaker emerges from bankruptcy with fewer brands, dealerships and debts. Its ultimate success, though, depends on persuading customers to buy its vehicles.
[Related content: GM, manufacturing, economy, cars, car models]
By Rick Newman, U.S. News & World Report
It may take awhile to convince car buyers, but General Motors (GMGMQ, news, msgs) has emerged from bankruptcy with better prospects for a profitable future than virtually any of the automaker’s critics predicted a few months ago. Here’s why:
It exited bankruptcy in record time. Chrysler surprised nearly everybody by emerging from bankruptcy in 40 days. GM, a far bigger and more complex company, beat that by a couple of days. That gives the “new GM” a fighting chance to escape the cloud of failure that has hung over the company for much of the last year.
MSN Autos: What the post-bankruptcy GM means to you
“It helps them get the idea that ‘GM equals bankruptcy’ out of consumers’ minds,” says Michael Robinet of forecasting firm CSM Worldwide.
Its biggest problems are in the past. GM has left behind billions in debt, axed hundreds of low-volume dealerships and gotten rid of its four underperforming brands: Hummer, Pontiac, Saab and Saturn.
It can now spread marketing dollars and other resources among fewer, better cars.
The new GM is built for speed. CEO Fritz Henderson has described how GM is stripping out several “strategy boards” and other layers of management that have been in place for decades, and cutting 450 managers from its white-collar work force. If done right, that could allow GM to bring cars to market faster and respond more effectively to shifting consumer tastes.
GM has also reduced its labor costs to the point that they’re practically equal to the most efficient automakers, removing another obstacle to profitability.
GM already has appealing cars. Its overall lineup is still spotty, but popular vehicles like the Chevrolet Malibu, GMC Acadia, Cadillac CTS and new Chevy Camaro represent plenty of good product that’s available today.
Sales of such vehicles could take off if GM can exploit its quick exit from bankruptcy to convince buyers the company is back on its feet, and will be around for the long haul.
Chrysler, by contrast, still has huge holes in its product lineup, and they might not be filled for two or three years.
GM has to work hard to win back consumers. Henderson admitted as much when he said that GM will try to distinguish itself by reaching out to buyers in new ways, such as listing vehicles for sale on eBay (EBAY, news, msgs). Even if GM only half-delivers, some customer pampering could pay off, as long as GM’s vehicles are up to scratch as well.
“Consumers have demonstrated they will endure a so-so customer experience to obtain a great vehicle,” says Jack Nerad of car research site Kelley Blue Book. “Consumers haven’t demonstrated they will accept a so-so vehicle because of a great customer experience.”
The feds want out of GM. Despite all the rah-rah, many Americans hate the idea of buying a car from a company run by the government. The real measure of success for GM will be a public offering that buys out the U.S. government’s 61% stake in the company, and the repayment of billions of dollars in taxpayer loans. Ahead of schedule.
Henderson hinted that a public offering could come as early as next year, with hopes to pay back the loans ahead of the 2015 deadline. The feds want that too.

Check out the pics of this!!

Ministerstwo Finansów jeszcze w marcu opublikuje projekt nowelizacji ustawy o finansach publicznych, który zakłada, że sankcje za przekroczenie progów ostrożnościowych 50 i 55 proc. długu publicznego w relacji do PKB będą obowiązywały dopiero, jeśli dług liczony po średniorocznych kursach walut będzie wyższy niż odpowiednie progi z ustawy wynika z nieoficjalnych informacji PAP.
Zgodnie z ustaleniami PAP, w projekcie zostanie założone, że procedury ostrożnościowe i sanacyjne z ustawy o finansach publicznych po przekroczeniu progów ostrożnościowych 50 i 55 proc. będą obowiązywały, jeśli państwowy dług publiczny liczony po średniorocznym kursie walutowym będzie wyższy w relacji do PKB niż progi.
Projekt nie odniesie się do konstytucyjnego progu, który zakłada określone działania, jeżeli dług publiczny przekroczy 60 proc. PKB.
W projekcie noweli ustawy ma się znaleźć również zapis, który będzie dotyczył długu netto, który nie będzie obejmował prefinansowania potrzeb pożyczkowych budżetu państwa na kolejny rok. Dług publiczny netto będzie brany pod uwagę, jeśli chodzi o automatyczne sankcje z ustawy, a nie jak do tej pory całość państwowego długu publicznego.
Nowelizacja ustawy ma również określić, że środki złotowe i walutowe zgromadzone na rachunkach oraz lokatach Ministerstwa Finansów będą zmniejszały wielkość długu publicznego.
Jeśli chodzi o statystykę, to państwowy dług publiczny oraz dług sektora rządowego i samorządowego, czyli według metodologii UE, będą nadal liczone po kursie z fixingu NBP z ostatniego dnia roku.
Ustawa ma zacząć obowiązywać jeszcze w 2012 roku.
Z informacji PAP wynika, że projekt zmian jest już gotowy, ale trwają ostatnie konsultacje wewnątrz resortu finansów.
Wiceminister finansów Dominik Radziwiłł poinformował w połowie lutego, że resort finansów proponuje, aby punktem wyjścia dla wyliczenia wielkości zagranicznej części długu pozostał kurs złotego z ostatniego dnia roku. Gdyby jednak dług liczony na tej podstawie przekroczył próg ostrożnościowy 55 proc., to sankcje nie byłyby uruchamiane, chyba że ten sam próg zostałby przekroczony przy zastosowaniu średniorocznego kursu złotego. Poza tym MF proponuje, aby pieniądze z lokat i rachunków bieżących zmniejszały wielkość długu.

RED Real Estate Development zakończył właśnie prace przy pierwszej fazie budowy osiedla Alpha w Ursusie przy ul. Skoroszewskiej. Inwestor oddał klucze do mieszkań w czterech budynkach, w których znalazło się 198 lokali. Do końca roku przekaże właścicielom akty notarialne. Został już także zagospodarowany teren wokół budynków. Gotowe są wewnętrzne patia z zielenią parkową, pergole, altanki, ławeczki, strumyki, oczka wodne i plac zabaw, a także chodniki, drogi dojazdowe do osiedla i parkingi.
Budowa drugiego etapu inwestycji rusza w styczniu przyszłego roku, ale już teraz osoby zainteresowane zakupem zaczęły podpisywać w biurze sprzedaży przy inwestycji umowy rezerwacyjne na lokale, które powstaną. Mieszkania o najmniejszej powierzchni kosztują od 7350 zł/mkw. Cena, tych nieco większych, dwu- i trzypokojowych od 56 mkw. jest niższa i kwalikuje lokale do zaciągnięcia kredytu w ramach programu: Rodzina na swoim. Otwiera to osobom zainteresowanym tą pożyczką możliwość skorzystania z rządowej dopłaty. Termin oddania nowych mieszkań został wyznaczony na czerwiec 2011 roku.
Najmniejsze, jednopokojowe lokale będą miały powierzchnię 29 mkw. – Nawet w kawalerkach o najmniejszym metrażu, jakie oferujemy w drugim etapie budowy osiedla Alpha istnieje możliwość wydzielenia osobnego pokoju jako sypialni. Ponieważ klienci szukają teraz małych, ale funkcjonalnych mieszkań, lokale o powierzchni już od 33 mkw. proponujemy w wersji jedno- lub dwupokojowej, a 56-metrowe w wariancie trzypokojowym. Oczywiście nie zabranie też tych dużych, z tarasami na ostatnich kondygnacjach i z ogródkami na parterach – wylicza Teresa Witkowska, dyrektor Sprzedaży w RED Real Estate Development.
Szczegóły związane z nowym etapem będzie można poznać na najbliższych Targach Mieszkaniowych w PKiN w dniach 3-4 października br. Inwestor przygotował na tą okazję specjalną ofertę, także na ostatnie lokale w zrealizowanym już etapie.
