Around a week ago, Top Gear managed to set a world record by pulling off a stunt that involves two loops in a row. The setup was creatively dubbed the “deadly 720”. Now Team Hot Wheels, which basically do stunts for a living, would like to respond by attempting again a loop stunt but with more of a tag team kind of spirit.
Two reasonably brave drivers will set off from a single line on separate tracks. Then they'll begin their individual climb on a six story loop that fuses the two tracks at

1953 Timossi-Ferrari ‘Arno XI’ Racing Hydroplane is literally unique. Being built the beginning of the 50’s this one-of-a-kind hydroplane Ferrari is powered by a twin-supercharged 4.5-liter Ferrari Tipo 375 F1 V-12 engine.
Moreover, this powerful V12 is equipped with twin four-barrel carburetors. And if you wonder about the horsepower it produces, well … can you even imagine that an engine which is built in the middle of the last century can p

Again a tuned up estate. This time it's from the guys at Loder1899 and the car in question is a Ford Focus, so that's unusual. And by unusual, we mean rare and exclusive. It's a fairly flexible program that makes use of an aerodynamic kit, a few suspension and wheels options plus a power enhancement for...the diesel range.
At the front we can find a “cupspoiler”, on the sides of the focus, you can go for the carbon or non-carbon side skirts. At the back, an apron with the diffuser is supposed

It's a Corsa Black. Don't worry, AMG are still doing what they should be doing (Mercs). This one here is just a special 'Black Edition' from Vauxhall. It's not just stitches on the steering wheel and fresh new cup holders on it however. No, the Vauxhall Corsa Black Edition introduces a whole new engine to the range.
It's a 1.4 liter turbo engine that develops 120 PS and 175 Nm which start at 1,750 rpm. To our ears, which are used to hearing blistering performance figures, a Vmax of 121 mph an

The BMW M6 is not yet fully out but Lumma Design cannot wait any longer. Here's a brief glimpse of what they intend on doing to it. Don't worry, no Mses have been hurt during the process. Their idea is, quite unsurprisingly, is to make the new BMW M6 “even more” sporty and appealing.
How are they going to that? With carbon fiber of course. What we can see here is a complete aerodynamic kit comprising of bumpers, side skirts and vents and everything. The wheel arches are now flaring with their

It was not long ago when we got a word from Kelleners Sport about their work on the BMW 5 Touring F11 Series – a somewhat subtle and refined job, perfectly appropriate for the mildly sensible man. With this one though, they have gone an extra mile. It's an F10 BMW M5 and according to the figures, it's one of their most powerful products yet.
The program is called the KS5-S and it boost the M5's 4.4-liter V8 to 600 hp. That's around 40 bhp on top. Because of that, the top speed is now 330 km/h

Proper E60 nostalgia coming from Prior Design. It's a complete “Widebody Aerodynamic-Kit” for the previous BMW 5 Series. Willing to add some character to your old bimmer?
We are talking high grade materials here that are easy to fit, flex and paint. The kit consists of a front bumper, hood air-scoops (which are more like vents), two front fenders, side skirts, rear fenders, a rear bumper and finally a trunk spoiler as optional. All is TÜV certified so you know it's Prior – quality is their signature. Must say, t
