Mercedes Benz CLK-DTM AMG Cabriolet
Breathless is the best way to describe how this car leaves you once you see it. Now for the specs: 582 horsepower, 5.5L supercharged V8, electronically limited to 300 km/h, and a speedometer that goes to 360 km/h (225 miles per hour). If only Mercedes Benz would send them to the United States.
2007 Mercedes Benz S-Class AMG
Here are pictures of the AMG bodywork on the new 2007 Mercedes Benz S-Class. Among the cosmetic changes the AMG S-Class gets a new front airdam, side skirts, and rear bumper. It looks quite a bit more aggressive than the photos of the car spied in San Diego. Mercedes has gotten rid of the current 5.5L Supercharged V8 that put out close to 500 horsepower in favor of a 6.3L normally aspirated V8 which is just a hair over 505 horsepower. Rumors are abound about a possible addition of a supercharger to the new engine once the 7-speed automatic can handle the massive torque.
2006 Bugatti Veyron - Workshop in Molsheim
Bugatti has opened up a new production facility to produce the new Veyron 16/4 supercar.
2006 Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder
Lamborghini is making huge strides with their newest models. The Gallardo Spyder has made its debut as a competitor to the Ferrari F430 Spyder. The Gallardo Spyder weighs more but also has a little more horsepower but otherwise the cars are very well matched.
2006 Ferrari F430 Challenge
The new Ferrari F430 Challenge looks like quite a car. 490 horsepower, 343 lb-ft of torque and a curb weight of 2700 pounds should make for some vicious performance numbers.

Ferrari 575 GTC
The 575 GTC is aimed at private teams participating in the FIA GT championship and will make its debut at the end of the 2003 season. It will also appear in other Granturismo series like the American IMSA and GrandAm series. The `C´ in the name stands for `competizione ´.
The 575 GTC is the racing version of the 575M Maranello. In order to cope with the demands of the track, it is equipped with even more technological advances than the superb road version .
The displacement of the 65° V12 has been increased to 5,997cc with a maximum power output of close to 605 bhp, and the car boasts a sequential shift. The track has been widened, the brakes increased in size and, thanks to the use of composite materials, the body has been lightened. The tubular steel chassis features boxed sections and the all-round wishbone suspension features adjustable antidive geometry.
The car has a split rear wing with a nolder. This set up is the fruit of extensive aerodynamic research in the wind tunnel, something that was also carried out for the adjustable front spoiler and the undertray with its rear extractor.
Supercharger available for Audi S4 (B6)
AmD Technik has released a supercharger system for the last generation Audi S4 (B6) which bumps power output up by 300 horsepower and 220 lb/ft torque. The net result is an all wheel drive Quattro S4 with 640 horsepower and 540 lb/ft of torque. The only draw back is the cost which is in the ballpark of $40,000 US dollars on top of the purchase price of the car. Worth it? Maybe, but I’d rather take two Audi s4 (B5) (my old car) with Stage 3 kits.
Here are the specs:
Up to 80% more BHP and 75% more torque.
Up to + 300+BHPbhp and 220+LBSlbs/ft

Mercedes Benz ML63 AMG
Looks like Mercedes is moving away from the supercharged 5.5L V8 that they’ve been running. They are now moving to a normally aspirated 6.3L V8 that produces about the same amount of power (510HP). I still can’t get over the fact that the new ML looks like a Kia.
Bugatti Veyron 16/4 spotted in SoCal
This car was spotted by someone who went to Rusnak Porsche in Pasadena. It’s a Bugatti Veyron 16/4 with California dealer plates. Notice the rear configuration is very different from the test mules over the last few years. Where is the spoiler?
