Top Gear, everyone has seen an episode of this popular automotive tv programme, most of us have seem them all. The English people are right now very busy with the preparations of the 11th season. And again it promises to be a nice one. For instance the new Audi RS6, new Evo X and CLK Black Series will be tested. Or what about the Mazda Furai that was spotted recently.  

Do you think your BMW M6 Convertible with it's 507 bhp is still a bit too normal and too slow to please you? Just bring it to German tuner G-Power. They will upgrade the 5.0 litre V10 with a Bi-Compressor system, this pumps up the power to a massive 635 bhp!  

The Aston Martin AMV8 is a wonderful car for a lot of people which they can probably only dream of. The looks of the car are stunning, it produces a wonderful sound but unfortunately the car hasn’t got enough power to be a true sportscar. Aston Martin also recognised this problem and are going to solve this, they are going to enlarge the AMV8’s engine!  

A while ago the body of Hugo Claus was transported in a wonderful Phantom VI Hearse, but also newer Rolls-Royces can be build to some interesting creations. You can spot a pink Silver Spirit ‘Val d’Isere’ stationcar in the Benelux, this car isn’t for a funeral centre, just a car build for the Sultan of Burnei. Just recently we’ve found some pictures of an other family car, nice to take on a holiday.  

Every year Aston Martin takes new fotos of the DB9. And again it has been done very neatly at one of the most beautiful places you can find on earth. The British brand has recently launched the 517 hp DBS, but that doesn’t mean that we should forget about this gentleman’s racer. The DB9 is on the market since 2004, which means it has been in the showroom for five years.  

James Glickenhaus can be called a true Ferrari-lover. He absolutely loves classic Ferrari’s, but he didn’t really like the looks of his new Ferrari Enzo. This is why he decided to throw the body of his Enzo away. A new body was designed by Pinifarina, and this is the result; the P4/5. And yes this one of a kind Ferrari is spotted! Unfortunately this is in front of a dealership, but it still deserves a place on the frontpage.  

Everyone knows the Porsche-Targa’s form the sixties and seventies. A well known detachable roof and a roll-bar. The Targa roof has totally faded from the Porsche program, and al lot of people think this is a shame.A company from California, called Velotech, agreed with this and now offers a roof similar to the original ones, for $ 10,000.  

You have never seen this before.... That is how the email started that we received last night about a new model from Mercedes-Benz. It is a supercar in the price-range of the Veyron and will be highly exclusive with a limited production of 75 pieces.  

"Gosh, a classic car! This doesn’t belong on the website! What a brick…....." Is this allowed on Autogespot? Just a quick impression of comments which will probably follow. The Duesenberg Model J Boattail Speedster is a very exclusive car from the twenties and thirties and it has been spotted in London.  

The new BMW M3 is introduced just a few months ago. First the coupe version was available, a short while ago the sedan version entered the showrooms and now it is time for the M3 Convertible. So these are pretty new models. But the engineers at BMW are already working on a facelift for this 3-series.  

A lot of rumours and spypics have been going round the internet about the looks of the SL65 AMG Black Series. These days we have programs like Photoshop that help us with creating nice renderings. MotorAuthority has made a nice rendering of what we can expect from the newest Black Series.  

The race between a motorcycle and a car, probably a never ending battle. The English magazine Autocar tried to race a very fast Caterham and a fast Ducati. A cool race to watch and it also demonstrates the difference between two and four wheels.  

Tuesday afternoon, around half past twelve I received a text message from the owner of a Maserati GranTurismo: “I'll be at your place around two, the Crossfire will join us”. Like mad I took my bike and drove home, at about the same time as I did the Chrysler Crossfire and Maserati GranTurismo also drove into the street where I live. You’ve probably guessed it, time for a photoshoot!  

It’s time for speculation again. The GranTurismo from Maserati is on the market for a while now. There’s no doubt that a spyder version of this car will come. This Spyder has never been spotted, and neither are there many impressions. That’s why our own photoshop artist Luuk has made a nice impression of this convertible.  

A car that brakes down is never fun, but most of the time it doesn’t have any serious consequences. But it’s a little different when it leads to some flames. In this case you could literally talk about a “hotwheel” version.  

The Rolls Royce Phantom, this must be one of the largest cars available at this time. Everything about this car is truly huge. If you place one of these British giants next to a Maybach, the Maybach looks small and humble. Nevertheless the size matches this limousine perfect. At this point enough different colors Phantom are spotted to make a nice special about. So this time no Lamborghini or Porsche, but a "Colors of the rainbow" for the Rolls Royce Phantom!  

Two special cars are spotted lately. The Mazda Furai and the Maybach 62 S Landaulet. We will start with the Furai, this means something like “sound of the wind”, this super rare car was spotted in the Netherlands! Spotter Tommeke saw this race car at Go-Kart centre “de Fabrique” in Maarssen. Over there a photographer was working on a professional shoot for a French car magazine.  

The current generation of the Ferrari F430 is on the market since 2004. The main question is, will Ferrari produce a successor for this fine machine? This question remains unanswered. But in the mean time we can at least enjoy this F430 concept from Luce Serafini.  

Volvo, the ultimate family car according to many people. Especially the old “box like” cars were very suited to carry a group of kids and luggage. However there is a small group of enthusiasts who like to tune their cars to the max. On Youtube we found a Volvo 745 that has a little more power than standard.  

Racing eachother with cars is always fun. But in a fast car it’s a bit easier to get to high speeds. Nine sportscars have been cought by the police in Switserland, after they had been clocked at 197 km/h. That’s way above the permitted maximum speed.
