==About Wikicars==
[[image:blessing.jpg|thumb| [[Blessing of the Cars]]]]
Wikicars is impassioned by the role of the automobile as an enabler of personal freedom, exploration, and growth. Wikicars is propelled by car enthusiasts, working collaboratively to create the World's most comprehensive source of information about all things automotive. By all things automotive, we mean information about topics such as:

* Cars, Trucks, and [[SUVs]]
* [[Hybrid Cars|Hybrid Vehicles]] and other [[green vehicle|Green Vehicles]].
* [[Supercar|Supercars]]
* Vintage and Collectible Cars
* [[Famous Cars]]
* [[Car Shows]]
* Car Accessories
* [[List of Manufacturers|Car Manufacturers]]
* [[:Category:Car designers|Car Designers]]

Well...you get the idea. The word "cars" and "car culture" are merely shorthand for the wonderful ability to venture out on one's own into the world. We want Wikicars to cover it all: if it primarily moves on wheels, has a means of propulsion, and the ability to transport you or your friends and family-- bring it on.

And don´t forget [[Garage Talk]].

==Encyclopedia or Guidebook?==
Wikicars is both. Wikicars aspires to be the most comprehensive source of fact based information about automobiles-- a Wikipedia of cars. At the same time, Wikicars is a guidebook, offering the consensus opinion of our community about the good, the bad, and the ugly of the automotive world. We believe this concensus opinion is very helpful; opinion and reviews that reflect the collective views of many people are much more likely to be accurate and unbiased.

We have attempted to clearly label the opinion parts of the site. Some pages, such as Car Review Pages, are designed to be primarily opinion. Other pages have specifically labelled sections called "criticisms".
