Mach 5 the Dream Car
Most of the people heard about Speed Racer and his famous car the Mach 5. A lot of them would also like to own one. Some of them have a diecast model thanks to the toy manufacturing companies. But what is so special about a car from an animated series and how it became so successful? The series was created in Japan and then an American version was produced and eventually a Spanish one. The main idea is the same: Speed drives his car Mach in all the automobile races and his family member are also involved in racing.
Mach 5 is a special car that has all kinds of gadgets meant to help Speed Racer win the races and come out as a winner from any situation. The car has several special features that become available at the touch of a button. The buttons are situated on the steering wheel and named from A to G. there is a special button named H that is situated in the console. Button A or the Auto Jacks is the button used when the car needs any repairs or adjustments. This would be a useful button especially for most of the drivers who do not know anything about repairing a car. The B button or the Belt Tires is the button that makes special grip tires available. If you have to go over rough roads, icy roads, unsteady roads or climb steep hills and rocky mountains you need to press the B button. Of course this is not possible in the real life where you have to change the tires according to the season and you have to buy a car or a truck according to the area where you live.
Mach 5 also has Cutters that are put into function by pressing button C. Cutters are useful for Speed Racer when he needs to go through woods. In real life if there is no road you do not drive your car because you do not want to scratch it or get a flat tire. The D button is one we would all love to have in our cars. By pressing this button the car is covered in a bullet proof shield, but more important in a crash proof shield. Also the cockpit is sealed and the care can go under water. The next button, E, is called the Evening Eye because is has special lights including infrared light. Button F releases a periscope and thus is useful when the car is under water. There is also an oxygen canister that has enough oxygen for half an hour and a video system that allows Speed Racer to see everything around him. Button G or the Gizmo Rocket is the one that allows Speed to send a little robot flying from under the hood of the car. The robot can send messages anywhere where Speed needs to send them.
The last button, H, positioned in the console with the other buttons that help working the robot, is the button that actually sends the robot home. The little white car with a red M painted on the hood and yellow 5s on each part of the car is the dream car for any person because of all the special features available. No real car manufacturer managed to make a car close to this except in its looks. The Corvette has a car designed after Speed’s car, but the only ones that have some of the features that car from the animated series has, are the toy ones.

Thus Speed Racer remains one of the most envied drivers and car owner and his car Mach 5 remains any driver’s dream car.
