Only 25 cars will be manufactured, each of them manufactured in compliance with client’s wishes and will have its personal number.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While tuning the car, designers of TOPCAR Company combined aerodynamic kits from Advantage GT and Vantage – each of 25 Porsche Cayenne will have this integrated aerodynamic kit, where front optics remains standard, but the car receives enlarged rear wings with impressive air inlets from Advantage GT. In this way, SUV visually transforms into coupe, but it has no round lights of 911 model in 997 body. It means that in the near future another 25 fierce and aggressive Porsche Cayenne, will be on road, making horror to their standard fellow creatures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When a new body kit is installed, hood, radiator guard, front bumper, sills, rear bumper are replaced and rear wings are equipped with moldings. Knobs of rear doors disappear. Neat buttons replace them; they are thoroughly hidden in big side air inlets, as in Advantage GT Project. Similar to the previous aerodynamic body kits from TOPCAR Company, Vantage GTR body kits are manufactured of reinforced Kevlar, and some elements are produced of dry carbon.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mFV_9CdxPOE/SnVh6qWrHfI/AAAAAAAAAK8/0ttyGDypgZs/s320/GTR-Cayenne-4-2.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But TOPCAR Company places its stake not only on exterior of the project. As usual, the interior is also subject to substantial re-development. TOPCAR Company offers even more expensive leather, alcantara, exclusive woods, parts of carbon, and also clear stitches and decorative solutions, including, among other, a plate with individual number on the central console.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;German company 9FF is a traditional partner of TOPCAR Company in tuning of engines of Porsche Cayenne.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mFV_9CdxPOE/SnVh6j2h1sI/AAAAAAAAALE/wlqWtEUh1N8/s320/GTR-Cayenne-5-2.jpg" /&gt;&lt;img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mFV_9CdxPOE/SnVh652DPxI/AAAAAAAAALM/7hT5aVdBiQw/s320/GTR-Cayenne-3-2.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Within the frame of this project TOPCAR Company has already manufactured 7 cars. The price of aerodynamic body kit for Vantage GTR is EURO 45,000. This aerodynamic kit can be created on the basis of any Porsche Cayenne, even from previous generation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Source: &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Tahoma, fantasy; white-space: pre; "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;germancarscene.com&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3546259099191558007-2049252354415872040?l=carslux.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://carslux.blogspot.com/feeds/2049252354415872040/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://carslux.blogspot.com/2009/08/new-vantage-gtr-porsche-cayenne.html#comment-form' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3546259099191558007/posts/default/2049252354415872040'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3546259099191558007/posts/default/2049252354415872040'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://carslux.blogspot.com/2009/08/new-vantage-gtr-porsche-cayenne.html' title='New Vantage GTR Porsche Cayenne'/><author><name>ihack</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00627246252979357414</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mFV_9CdxPOE/Sk3y8TVU3mI/AAAAAAAAACs/2ns7fTaSYQI/S220/Dr.House.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mFV_9CdxPOE/SnVhgJAINxI/AAAAAAAAAK0/Tt7zF2_HUyI/s72-c/GTR-Cayenne-2-2.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3546259099191558007.post-1554624066229614159</id><published>2009-07-31T13:45:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-07-31T13:49:16.349-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='video'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mercedes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='test drive'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='new'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='canadien'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='track'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='slr'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='review'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='race'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='650hp'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mclaren'/><title type='text'>Video : Mercedes-McLaren SLR</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 20px; "&gt;I suggest you to watch 2 videos of new &lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'MS Shell Dlg'; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal; white-space: pre; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#FF0000;"&gt;Mercedes-McLaren SLR&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.

Indeed, you're looking at a Lexus IS-Force, an IS-F that's been converted to a cruiser for police duty in the English county of Humberside, which includes the notoriously criminally minded port city of Hull. For the past few years, Humberside bobbies have been chasing baddies in Subaru Imprezas, but the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" ;font-size:small;"&gt;AWD cars just weren't up to the task at hand.

margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; "&gt;ABT POWER even makes the already quick Audi S4 faster. Although the V6 compressor with three litre cubic capacity is already very sporty with its 333 HP (245kW), anyone who wants even more dynamism and torque can obtain a super sports car with the ABT S4: the decent-elegant car then brings 435 HP or 320 kW onto the road. And the additional 102 horsepower, which are employed in the ABT S4, suit the car extremely well in terms of nutrition: it achieves 0-100km/h in 4.6 seconds, while in the series standard this takes 5.1 seconds. A half a second difference is an eternity for high-performance vehicles of this kind. The top speed is 282 km/h – and that is 32 km/h more than the Audi S4. This is because the engine, tuned by ABT Sportsline, is, of course, supplied without a V-max limit.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 15px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; "&gt;The torque of the engine optimised in Allgäu also appears to be as strong as an ox: instead of 440 Nm now 520 Nm are available – an increase of around 19 percent. As a result the 3.0 TFSI gets to work powerfully in any situation. The extra performance brings additional driving enjoyment and shows its superiority in practically all seven gears of the DSG gearbox. The consumption – and thereby the environmental pollution – is, however, no greater than with the series engine. On the other hand the driving-dynamic difference is revealed on main roads and motorways, as because the ABT S4 does everything even better, it is sportier. Capable of a powerful acceleration to top speed, the six cylinders now get to business. The Allgäu tuner recommends the 4-pipe sports exhaust unit and the ABT AR or BR wheels as fitting supplements to the power image of the car. The smart “round pieces” are available in sizes from 18 to 20 inches and can be supplied with fitting sports tires. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3546259099191558007-4470921669828642391?l=carslux.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://carslux.blogspot.com/feeds/4470921669828642391/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://carslux.blogspot.com/2009/07/audi-s4-tuned-by-abt-sportsline-425-hp.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3546259099191558007/posts/default/4470921669828642391'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3546259099191558007/posts/default/4470921669828642391'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://carslux.blogspot.com/2009/07/audi-s4-tuned-by-abt-sportsline-425-hp.html' title='Audi S4 Tuned by ABT Sportsline - 425 HP'/><author><name>ihack</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00627246252979357414</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mFV_9CdxPOE/Sk3y8TVU3mI/AAAAAAAAACs/2ns7fTaSYQI/S220/Dr.House.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mFV_9CdxPOE/Smy5ne_bCTI/AAAAAAAAAG8/48fHhe_U35k/s72-c/2009-ABT-Audi-S4-Front-Angle-Picture-588x391.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3546259099191558007.post-6159716138563215325</id><published>2009-07-24T09:06:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-07-24T09:25:00.861-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='comparison'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='versus'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='jaguar'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='m5'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='test drive'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='new'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='vs'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='clarkson'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='review'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='xfr'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bmw'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='top gear'/><title type='text'>'Top Gear' review: Jaguar X-FR vs BMW M5</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 5px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 5px; font-family:Verdana;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Top Gear's latest episode Jeremy Clarkson makes a review about &lt;b&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#FF0000;"&gt;Jaguar XF-R&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt; and puts it against the mighty, powerful &lt;b&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#FF0000;"&gt;BMW M5&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;. The Jaguar XFR is the fastest car the company has ever built with a top speed of 225.675mph (363.188km/h). This speed is recorded in January on the Bonneville Salt Flats (Utah, USA) .

And those are just of few names from their portfolio...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, going back to Ronny Turiaf and his Chevy, there are no details about what is exactly the car’s configuration. However, what we can say about the Tahoe is that is built on GM’s full-size SUV platform, in LS, LT, LTZ and Hybrid models, with 2WD and 4WD.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The car comes in a choice of three engines: a 4.8L V8 unit (295 hp at 5600 rpm), a 5.3L V8 unit (320 hp at 5200 rpm) , or a 6.2 V8 unit (395 hp at 5600 rpm). We can only assume that Turiaf’s model is not a hybrid and features the 6.2 V8 unit engine .&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"   style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#626262;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"   style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#626262;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;Thanks for article - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color: rgb(166, 166, 166);

One sunny day I had a walk in capital of &lt;b&gt;Latvia&lt;/b&gt; - Riga. It's amazing! There were lot of luxury cars. But that's not all, folks .
