The German tuner Mansory rebuilds Rolls Royce's and Bentley's limousines for a long time, but also models of the British Aston Martin are not unknown. For example, they already have taken the Vanquish S and the DB9 Volante in their hands and now, it was time for the smallest of the family. The result: the Mansory Aston Martin Vantage V8. He looks really incredible! Unfortunately, they have left the 4.3-litre V8 untouched because it could easily have had more than 380 hp. What they did do is replacing the plate that covers the engine by red carbon-fibre.
The attentive car fan knows that there's been a lot of rumours around the latest model of BMW nowadays. Is it the facelift of the Z4 or is it a completely new roadster? Now it is clear: it's the facelift. The large amount of spyshots is not over yet, because our Nürburg-spy Gawid has mailed us some pics of the new Z4. You can see the shape of the car quite clearly on these pics. But we probably have to wait till Geneva 2008 to the official reveal. It's clear that BMW has a gorgeous new model in the line-up.
It's not the first, second or the third time we have something to tell about a possible baby-Ferrari. When someone was asked if he could remove the pictures of a Ferrari from the Internet, it was almost certain but now we know it for sure; a new Ferrari Dino is on the way! And what's more, the Ferrari will already be presented at the Geneva Auto-show in March.
They're doing well, the people at AMG. The last couple of years, the models have become more impressive and especially much better than the previous models. Some photographers ran across a monstrous SL at the Ring!
The British Farbio has announced a new lightweight sportscar. The name of this beast is GTS. The car is almost made out of carbon fiber, whereabout the chassis, underfloor and the diffuser at the back of the car. This carbon fiber parts give the car an aerodynamic design. The Farbio has got smooth lines in the design, which give the GTS a sportive charisma.
Beep, beep, beep... 6 o'clock in the morning and time to get up! It's time to make the semi-annual trip to Paris. At 10 o'clock, the train leaves from Amsterdam Central Station but because there's a chance the train gets delayed, I sleep some less. My expectations? They're not too high. If I see two Porsches Carrera GT, like last time, I would be highly happy and satisfied! What I went through this time, you see in my report...
Via Autoblog.com, we saw a nice, lets just say a very nice, movie clip. In this fragment, you see how people in the "US and A" think about the idea of "a line of supercars". A notable number of supercars passes by, including a Bugatti Veyron and a Ferrari Enzo.
Please look furhter for the movie clip!
Paris, according to most people it isn't the best city in Europe where you can spot some exclusive cars. But the contrary is proven! Last monday, after spotting some various bizarre exotics first, I ran across an unique exotic, a Murciélago LP640 Versace! A scoop for Autogespot!
What do you do when you have drunk too much? Right, you start walk over cars. At least, that's how they in Dereham, England think about it. A 23-year old man (or toddler) apparently thought it was funny to walk over a Lamborghini Murciélago. His "friends" seemed to enjoy recording this and they make the movie clip and distributed it by bluetooth in the local bar. When a colleague saw the fragment and recognised the car immediately, he informed the police.
For the first time in years, there won't be a sedan-version of the Impreza STi anymore. Quite remarkable viewing the rich history of this rally machine. Next to other spyshots, this was also an eye-catching model.
While the new M3 is already available in Europe, BMW is still busy testing the convertible version of this bomb on the Nordschleife. This morning, we ran across this version on the Nürburgring.
Okay.... what do we miss?? Well.... the M3 CSL! It is spotted on the Nürburgring, so it can't be too long before it is in the showroom. As you can see it has, just like the "old" CSL, an extra spoiler on the trunk. There are some other things that show us that this is the musculed version of the normal M3.
Volkswagen AG had to come up with something to make some profit on project Bugatti. The huge costs to produce one Veryon, don't make the chiefs very happy. But the image and performance of the car do. A news-item on the web tells us that there will be a second Bugatti model.
Not new at the Dutch section of Autogespot but new at the English section: Lovely Sounds! We've collected the best sounds of cars for you. So turn your speakers on, put the volume at max and warn your neighbours, this is Lovely Sounds!
A streetlegal version of a Le Mans car. It makes sense if you're looking at the extreme looks of this car. It's really one of those cars you'd expect to see during the 24 hours of Le Mans or any other track. When I saw the car approaching the traffic lights I really had to look closely to see what I was actually starting to photograph. It's as low as a Lamborghini Murcielago and has a front looking like a Maserati MC12 or Gumpert Apollo. This is one of those cars you rarely see in a big city. Stunning!
Black tape and fake parts are just to mislead people. The guys in Maranello did a good job! A few days ago we showed you the pictures of the Maserati CC or Spyder (click) (click) we've got some hot news!
Did you think Aston Martin would come to the Internationale Automobil-Ausstellung September at Frankfurt with only the old-news DBS? Last week we showed you some spy-shots of the (what we thought to be) new AMV8 Vantage RS, and now we have our answer! The RS must compete with the F430 Scuderia en de Porsche 911 GT3.
Car spotter P-A-F-K spotted this camouflaged Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedan which will replace the 2003 model in 2010. The sedan will be launched first, a year later the E-Class stationwagon will follow.
A nylon coverage and a Porsche-wheel thats the only thing you can see....... so what. You could think that it's just an ordinary Porsche with a sheet to protect it against Mother Nature. But the shapes underneath the sheet don't show a normal Porsche. So this protection could be something to hide things! Spotter p-a-f-k has made the following pictures at the Porsche-factory at Stuttgart.
