The new Lamborghini Aventador LP-700 4 is the new attention grabbing, sleek model from Lamborghini that is sure to take the car industry by storm. This new model is named after the bull that entered a battle in 1993 in Saragossa Arena and earned the title of Trofeo de la Pena La Madronera due to its incomparable courage. Indeed, this new model will take the road with courage to go up and compete with the many super cars and sports cars already making a name in the industry.
Exterior & interior
The exterior of this model is designed with intricate aerodynamics calculations to make it move faster but retain handling and maneuverability. It has a 4-degree angle approach which is maximized on high speed and supports stability in moving in different directions upon reaching the top end of a spectrum. While the 11-degree tilts helps maximize stability and handling and at the same time carries on midrange speeds, significantly greater down force.
At the front part of this car, it gets better air guide further accentuated by frames that are glossy and black, and headlights that are bi-xenon made. These headlights spread starting from the middle and another set of LED lights operates the turn signals. Customers were happy to hear that they have options on the car’s exterior colors. There are 13 colors to choose from and different color effects such as pastel metallic, matte, and pearlescent.
Interior-wise, a hyper car cannot get more hi-tech than this. The new instrumentation gauges used in this model resembles those used on jet planes with LCD screens displaying instrumentations in your car while another independent system and LCD screen controls the navigation functions of this model and the stereo. The sleek leather material of the seats is made with a single color with contrasting stitching available in many different colors.

The Kellener Sport KS1-S BMW 1 Series M coupe is the resulting car when the BMW I Series M Coupe is converted into a modern sports car by Kelleners Sport. The transformation is complete starting with the adjustable coilover kit and supplementary front spoiler, 20 inch light alloy wheels, and a comprehensive leather interior make-over.

2011 Singer Porsche 911 White

The latest trend in sports car production is for shops to take classic car designs and turn them into modern versions by using the latest technology in engine and car body manufacturing. The 2011 Singer Porsche 911 White uses the pre-1994 Porsche 911 Coupes and transforms them into new creations loaded with modern features and amenities. The transformed cars are not registered as new cars but retain their licenses and Vehicle Identification Numbers.
The old cars are completely dismantled and blasted to bear metal treating all parts with rust prevention solutions. All body parts are inspected for structural defects and are reinforced by welding in preparation for the transformation works. Wipers are replaced with the centrally located units similar to those of the Porsche 993 series. The fenders and bumpers, hood and engine deck are replaced with new carbon fiber body parts to make the unit light and strongly fitted.
The car color is set as immaculately white accented only by the spoiler, lower rockers and rear valances which are made of flexible and heat resistant Urethane. The air cooled 3.6L engines are meticulously stripped, blue printed and reconstructed to provide more power and efficiency. The entire car interior is completely refurbished and the suspension, tire and break systems are all altered to conform to modern standards.

2012 Ford Mustang GT Blue Angels Edition

The Ford Mustang is one car that has never run out of innovative ideas to augment its popularity as a legend. The 2012 Ford Mustang GT Blue Angels Edition is the culmination of the numerous modern concepts that can be incorporated into the Mustang design. The newly designed car is scheduled for auction at the Gathering of Eagles charity auction during the Experimental Aircraft Association 2011 AirVenture Oshkosh, the world’s greatest aviation celebration. Proceeds of the auction are intended for the Young Eagles Organization.
This Ford Mustang GT Blue Angels Edition is a tribute to the 100 years of naval aviation and its design was inspired by the F-18 Hornet jet used by the naval aviation performance demonstration team. The Blue Angels crest is on the car’s exterior and the yellow accents from the sides to the rear spoiler are derived from the famed aircraft. The Blue Angels crest is also stitched in the leather Recaro racing seats accented by the offset stripes typically found in pilot flight suits.
The interior of the 2012 Ford Mustang GT Blue Angels Edition is replete with modern navigational gears and gadgets that project a jet cockpit ambiance and the powerful V8 624 HP engine completes the car’s unique features.

When G-power conducted tune-ups to the BMW M3 Sports Car, the resulting performance of the car achieved unprecedented milestones. The results in the high-speed test in Nardo, Southern Italy where the G-Power BMW M3 SK II was entered prove that the G-Power supercharger tune-up system really works. The car reached speeds of 333 kilometers per hour, the highest in its 570 horsepower category. Only two other cars achieved higher speeds but both were powered by 900 and 1000 Horse power engines.
This sensational performance of the 2011 G-P0wer BMW M3 SKII is due to the components in the G-Power tune-up process known as the Super Charger System SKII “Sporty Drive”. The ASA supercharger employed by the system makes full use of the car engine to attain maximum power. The technology used is derived from AVL technologies which has partnered with G-Power to develop the software essential to optimum engine control.
Tests prove that after the splendid performance made by the Sports Car, there was no evidence of overuse in the engine’s combustion chambers. For road tires, G-Power used the Michelin Pilot Super Sports to handle the challenging 1,500 mile test distance. Aerodynamic changes were also made complementary to the G-Power GM3 RS coilover suspension that improved the overall performance of the car.

2011 Joss JP1

Australia could hardly be seen in the map of car manufacturing. But this year, the land down under has released the country’s first super car, the 2011 Joss JP1. Developed by the Joss Development, this car is set to be sold in the market by early 2012. Last July 1-10 the car has been showcased internationally and is the final prototype of this car set to be sold by year 2012.
When it comes to aesthetics, the car doesn’t stand out that much. With the body styling very much like any other supercar, there’s not much to see exteriorly on this car. But on the brighter side, the design of this car is already an acquired taste so no matter how much it looks the same as other supercars, people will still love it. But the lack of design ingenuity is compensated by its performance. The car is designed to provide powerful engines rather than have it look sexy and spicy.
The production version of this supercar is said to be powered by a V8 engine which can spike the horsepower to up to 500, mated to a six-speed manual transmission. This powerful engine can take you from 0-62 mph in less than three seconds with a top speed of 211 miles per hour. With that being said, this supercar will take the year 2012, fast.

0-60 mph: 4.9 seconds Top Speed: 155 mphTerrorizing roads since first coming out in 1992, the Dodge Viper has carved a legend for itself. Taking the muscle car concept to the hilt, it is powered by a big block V10 engine that produces a ton of power even on low rpm, making mincemeat out of all kinds of sports cars. However, this “niche car” by Dodge was discontinued in 2010.
However, fans need not despair, as a new generation of the Viper is going to be released in 2012 at the earliest. The 2013 Dodge Viper is going to usher in a new era in this American beast. The first prototype emerged in 2010 in a private conference organized by Chrysler. It was warmly received, but the final product could be considerably different.
Performance
Just like the design, the mechanical bits of the next generation Viper is also up in the air. Of course, the V10 engine with an output around the 600 horsepower neighborhood will always be there, but there are rumors that an “entry level” Viper is going to be equipped with a V8 engine capable of producing 500 horsepower. However, what specific engine would be installed is still a puzzle. A modified version of the 8400 cc V10 is the most likely candidate. Modified to increase output to 700 horsepower and made to pass 2018 emission regulations, it seemed like the preemptive frontrunner as engine of choice for the new Viper.
New Features
There are rumors circling around the development of the next generation Dodge Viper, some even coming with conflicting inputs. One thing is for sure, it is going to be a major update aiming to modernize the car and make it more palatable to the younger audience. It will feature lighter and more technologically advanced components to save weight. Also, electronic stability control is slated to become standard equipment for the first time.
Adding to the unpredictability of the Viper project is the acquisition of Chrysler by Fiat. Because of this new partnership, it is very possible that it will share parts with other Fiat companies such as Ferrari, Maserati, and Alfa Romeo. There are various rumors that styling cues will be borrowed from some Fiat company vehicles as well some crucial components. Other rumors state that brands such as Ferrari is going to help out in the fine tuning of its handling, engine characteristics, and the like. In fact, some have even said that it shares characteristics with the Alfa Romeo 8C and the Maserati Gran Turismo. Right now, everything about the design is still up in the air.
By the time it gets released in 2012 at the earliest, it is expected to compete with new iterations of sports car legends such as the Lotus Esprit and the Honda NSX, not to mention existing sports cars such as the Audi R8, Porsche 911, Nissan GT-R, Ferrari 458 Italia, among others. However, it is too early to tell as of now, as the development of the 2013 Viper is still a secret seemingly only known by Chrysler (and Fiat) insiders. Whatever the finished product may be, it is safe to say that it will be a heck of a car, just like its predecessors.

2011 Edo Competition BMW M5 Touring Dark Edition

The 2011 Edo Competition BMW M5 Touring Dark Edition is a family transport wagon that looks like a powerful car because of its black knight appearance. Most conspicuous are the two chromed twin exhaust pipes on both sides of the rear end of the vehicle which give an impression of power and force on any onlooker.
The tail pipes produce power sounds when the engines are revved up to full force. They are just a part of a highly efficient exhaust system that works hand in hand with the high-flow air filters and catalytic converters enabling the engine to achieve more than 500 horsepower output and a top speed of 305 km per hour. That is whopping 55-kilometer increase in top speed compared to the original M5.

The car can accelerate from zero to 100 kilometers per hour in 4.2 seconds, and from 100 kilometers per hour to 200 kilometers per hour in just 10 seconds. It is a really fast car but it is being admired as fine family car because of the wide 5 seat capacity and the huge cargo space available. There are very few vehicles that can match the performance of this black van with a powerful engine combining power and usability typical of family cars.

Delahaye USA Bella Figura Type 57S

Car restoration is still a big fad as many car collectors still search and buy old original cars to put them back into their original state. It is mainly done by car collectors who enjoy the beauty and elegance of past legendary models like the Bugatti, Delahaye, Pierce, Arrow. Mercedes, and many others. Attempts by companies in the 1970’s to recreate some cars of such classic designs did not fare well.
Taking advantage of the advancement in metallurgy and carbon fiber technology, Delahaye USA has recently embarked in producing modern renditions of the classic designs. Delahaye plans to offer a turnkey version of their inspired creation called Bella Figura Type 57S in an alloy body at $450,000 dollars or in the painted or clear-coated carbon fiber version at $250,000.
It is best to see first the ¼ scale model or the full body scale carbon fiber display before considering the offer. The design is inspired by the 1937 Bugatti Type 57S which is most appropriate because recent auctions of original Bugatti sports cars have netted amounts ranging from 5 to 30 million dollars. Car collectors obviously value this particular model, which is a pre-war sports car with a unique dorsal fin design.
