2012 Ferrari 458 Italia Spider



Leaked photos always have a way of forcing automakers to scramble on how to proceed when launching a new vehicle and the leaked images of the Ferrari 458 Italia Spider just might have forced Ferrari to show its hand earlier than they wanted. Now, all this is a matter of speculation and it just might be coincidence altogether, but in any case, the Italian automaker not only released the first official teaser of the 458 Italia Spider, but followed that up with the the first batch of official photos featuring the much-talked about top-down supercar.

2011 Maserati GranTurismo S Superior Black Edition

 

Anderson Germany seems to have a thing for turning already superior sports cars into lean and mean beasts of the road with exquisite black exterior paint finishes and upgraded power outputs. Their most recent transformations have come for the Porsche Panamera and the Aston Martin DBS, but they are now revealing the GranTurismo S Superior Black Edition. Just like the previously spectacular tuning packages, the GranTurismo S Superior Black takes the standard model and adds the aggressiveness it needs with a matte black exterior finish and other upgraded features, as well as extra thump for the engine.

Batman's new ride will be a Lamborghini Aventador


Super cars are starting to appear in a growing number of movies that involve superheroes. Iron Man began that trend when Tony Stark, played by Robert Downey Jr., was seen riding the Audi R8 a few years back. Since then, a lot of high-budget summer movies have taken to exotics to serve as the protagonist’s main ride, including the Audi R8 Spyder in Iron Man 2, the Ferrari 458 Italia in the about-to-be-released Transformers: Dark of the Moon, and the Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 in The Dark Knight.

2012 Lamborghini LP760-2 Aventador by Oakley Design

Can the Lamborghini Aventador look any sexier? Apparently yes! The answer lies in the hands of an amazing design company, Oakley Design. The take on the toughest challenges, making top of the line sport cars even better, stronger and nicer. After their work on the Ferrari 458 Italia, it was clear to me that if a car needs to look better, it has got to go through them. To show how amazing they are Oakley Design are only producing five units of the Aventador and already three have already been sold.
Focusing on the looks alone, anyone can see the sportier appearance given by the addition of a larger airbox, an intake feed pipe diameter, a titanium exhaust system, and a new set of lighter and wider wheels.
Under the hood it's a whole other story... They worked up the Aventador to become 253lbs lighter than the standard model, and with an ECU remap they accomplished 60HP more. The V12 engine now delivers 760HP rather than 700. The impressive thing about all this is that all this power will be sent to the rear wheels alone. No exact word yet on it's ability to sprint 0 to 60 mph but it's obviously more impressing than the 2.9 seconds provided from the factory models.

Audi R8 V8 pimped up to become a V10 Spyder


In 2010 Audi presented their latest gift to the public, the Audi R8 V8 became a V10. Now with the help of German tuner, Wheelsandmore, they optimized it's performance and looks. An ECU engine was their first update. The new stainless steel, handcrafted high flow exhaust system with remotable valve flaps was their second allowing the car's 5.2 Liter FSI V10 to produce an impressive 600 HP and 590lb-ft of torque, allowing it to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in less than 4 seconds. And with a name like Wheels-and-more and update to the wheels was more than necessary. Lightweight, 3-piece forged 6Sporz wheels wrapped in 45/30/20 tires available in different colors. Finally an LCS (level control system) hydraulic lift up system allowing 40mm of road clearance was added to avoid speed bumps and other things if you with to go off road. Check out the video at the end of this post, it's beautiful and relaxing.
Enjoy...
