Samsung Galaxy AlphaAnother Samsung phone enters the fray, and it's a slightly odd one: the Galaxy Alpha has a price tag that's even higher than the iPhone 6, and yet doesn't really out-spec it in many ways.That said, it's still a premium phone. The second you hold it, you'll feel that the updated metal design really works, with clever effort made to improve the way it feels in your hand.The 4.7-inch screen isn't as high-res as the rivals, but does the job well thanks to Super AMOLED technology making the contrast ratio and colours pop out.And the battery is removable - bonus!Quick VerdictThere's a lot to like about the way the Alpha looks, but there are some quibbles: why is there no microSD slot or larger capacity on offer to help out?Why does it cost so much? Is the metal band (and, to be fair, blazingly fast internal speeds) really enough to warrant a purchase?A really nice phone that needs a little more to be at the sharp end of this list: but if you want a premium-feeling Android phone with a strong camera, the Alpha is a great place to start.

The MG2 names the electric portion of force and switches into generator mode during periods of deceleration to provide growing back braking. Lexus car doesn’t quote power and torque statistics for the MG2, citing only a gas-electric-system total of 200 horsepower. In the Camry addition of the setup, Toyota hybrid cars provisions sailors of 141 horsepower and 199 lb-ft of torque for the electric motor lonesome and it’s a good bet the ES300 he’s MG2 is packing at least as much.

Mercedes-Benz C Class
Before, car manufacturers focused on mpg (Miles per Gallon) and compactness but this year, manufacturers are after fuel efficiency. However, even if the cars are made to be fuel effective, they still catch the attention through their "sports car" feel and look. And you don't have to be spending thousands of dollars for the best cars because professional guess is, they will only fall between $20,000 and $30,000.
Here are the top three best cars in the US for this year.
1. 2013 Dodge Dart R/T
The 2013 Dodge Dart R/T has borrowed its Fiat chassis from the Alfa Romeo Giulietta. It also has a fully independent suspension, which has become much of a character for the Dodge but is a welcomed feature. With a 184-hp 2.4-liter under its hood, this newest model is expected to have one of the best horsepower ever created by the Dodge.
The public's perception may be a bit affected by the possibility that the 2013 Dodge Dart R/T may get some slightly stiff competition from costlier models. Of course, there's still that perception that costlier may mean better but that is expected to change as soon as they test drive the Dart.
2. 2013 Audi RS4
This latest model is the best of Audi yet when it comes to speed. This medium-sized wagon has an engine powered by a 4.2-liter V-8, which is a high-revving power source that reaches a maximum of 450hp with redlines at 8500.
The coupe's compact body is most coveted because it features a five-door body style that is revolutionary when it comes to automobile design. With these features combined, Audi has set itself in the same level as the BMW. The only huge difference would be the price.
3. 2013 Ford Focus
Ford is well known for its unbelievably strong trucks. But the 2013 Ford Focus is a vehicle that women would want to have. It has a compact design that is not too masculine and not too feminine. It is very stylish and it houses the latest vehicle technologies. It also does not consume too much fuel so it's basically an "economy" car inside and out.
Do You Want Any of These Cars Delivered to Your Doorstep?
These cars are best bought direct from the United States, where they are also inspected and their parts certified. Your geographic location should not be a hindrance to having these three best cars for 2013. With dealerships offering specialized export services, you should legally drive one in your own country.
This is done through the combined efforts of several companies, all working together to get you your order. A dealer will locate the car for you and process all the pertinent paper work too. Then your preferred dealer will also hire the services of shipping companies that will cross the ocean while cuddling your vehicle and making sure it is safe from potential damages due to transport.
