Rest assured, the future is green. In fact, here's some of it right now – a Laborghini Gallardo Superleggera. To the unsuspecting, yet adept eye, it's an LP570-4. That indicates that it has 570 hp and an AWD layout. The thing is, Wheelsandmore have been working on it but it's all very subtle. One of the most daring alt
German Special Customs (GSC), based in Chemnitz, Germany, like to add their own touch on already slightly mad vehicles. Take for example, the Mercedes-Benz CLS 63AMG (W218) – impressive enough, isn't it? Well, the way they see it, there's always room for improvement. The front bumper is new and harbors massive lower mesh grills and some LEDs. The hood has also been replaced with something that is most certainly not waterproof. Move to the sides and you'll notice that the side skirts are now a

K-Tec Racing tend specialize in Renault-tweaking. Today, the have a new engine upgrade for the Renault Sport Clio 197 or 200. It sounds dodgy, but it isn't. They are even offering a 12 month/ 30, 000 miles warranty. Besides, the jump in power is not stunningly drastic. According to K-Tec, many throttle friendly owners of the Clio 197/200 express minor discontent at the low and mid sectors of the rev counter. Their upgrade is specifically targeted for the car's F4R 830 engine. It's called the
Here's a treat from Anderson (Düsseldorf, Germany). It's called the Aston Martin Casino Royale DBS – an evident reference to the James Bond franchise. And it certainly looks exclusive enough to bare that image – shady, sleek and, inside, a bit over the top but don't worry. That's why the windows are tinted – it will be your dork secret. Anderson are quick to announce that because of the ECU tweak, the new manifolds and exhaust system with sports catalysts, the power of the Casino DBS is up by
Gemballa which are known for this and this, have now taken up a somewhat bonkers project. As far as we know, the first of April was a long time ago but, lo and behold, it's the “world's first diamond coating for the interior and exterior finish of vehicles”. So there you go. Now you can have soulless Hyundai look like a backstage prop from the Wizzard of Oz. And yes, we are talking about actual diamonds: "When GEMBALLA speaks of diamonds, we really mean it", explains CEO Andreas Schwarz. "Our complex process use
It has arrived. Vorsteiner's GTS-V program for the BMW 1M Coupe is a fact of life – “Autoclave Pre-Preg” carbon fiber aerodynamic components, some wheels and a sport exhaust system that's beneficial to the power output. The finished product is laden with character yet remains subtle. We have a GTS-V add-on spoiler for the front that also flings air to the disk brakes and a rear diffuser with a splitter and jutted fins. For the sake of lightness, the boot lid has been replaced entirely and now
Superchips – the guys from Buckingham that deal exclusively with ECU remapping - have come up with “Bluefin Plug-in and go” product for the Ford EcoBoost range – think in terms of Ford C-Max, Grand C-Max, Focus, Galaxy, Mondeo and S-Max. At a glance, “Bluefin” might sound like it's something you install on your browser but the fact is, this is one potent piece of technology. Well, it is as easy as installing an add-on on your browser, it's just that your are doing it on your Ford or more specifically the On Boar
Last year Lumma gave to the world an overhauled Porsche Cayenne known as the CLR 558 GT. It looked, and still does, like it's been fed with steroids throughout it's whole life: a chubby aerodynamic kit, a hunkered down stance and some extra muscle under the hood. Now, why not have something that goes along with it? It's the Lumma Sport Trailer... really? Let's start with the workhorse first, just to refresh our memory. With some powertrain witchcraft, Lumma have managed to pump the power, of the otherwise unassu
Hot news from Mansory, the Swiss after-market tuning house: A Ferrari 458 Spider (yes, another one), described as the Monaco Edition. Only three will ever be made and according to Mansory, all will be superior to the production ones in terms of looks and performance. It seems that no carbon fibers were spared at the company's grounds. That is rather evident by the fact that the Ferrari 458 Spider Monaco Editions are around 60 kg lighter than their standard counterparts. That said, we know that the front skirt ha
Abarth 695 Maserati Edition will be run in limited series of 499 units. The model will make its official debut on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the Mille Miglia, which Enzo Ferrari called "the most beautiful race in the world". Displayed at Piazza della Loggia in Brescia in the midst of the collectors' aut
Back in 2010, G-Power created this monster of a thing. It had 800 hp, 780 Nm and held a high-speed record of 372 km/h which was previously owned again by G-Power. Apparently, a great interest has boomed from this and today G-Power are delivering their 100th BMW Hurricane M5 RR. So why not make it special? They have – it's the Hurricane M5 RRs with even more power and spunk. Based on the E60, this performance beast harbors a BI-Kompressor „Sporty Drive” system. In other words, two supercharger
