The Veyron Sang Noir is an official limited edition from Bugatti that utilizes some black paint for the exterior, has its carbon bits exposed and wears an orange upholstery. Other deviations from the standard include the design of the grille, the headlights (tinted) and the wheels – except that interior, the Noir sounds like a subtle job, no? Sadly however, while there are only 15 such in the world, one is currently being ruined by a vinyl company. Unless this car belongs to an energy drink company, this desecrati

We have talked about this before – it's a Scion iQ, custom made by SR Auto. This one however is a bit different, more complete, a finished product in fact. The project is called “Pryzm” and rightfully so. Being so boxy, the only thing that stands between it and a prism is that the latter does not roll on 17-inch Sparko wheels.
The ride is lower and a Premier 4509 kit decorates the exterior. That means that the front and rear bumpers, side skirts, front fenders, the hood, and the roof spoiler ar

Stillen are adamant that their products are strictly functional. So the Stillen 370Z bumper should be no exception. It's made from urethane and, according to the Stillen guys, it does what a bumper should do – channel air to all the right places, provide down force and cool the brakes. Then comes, as a secondary priority, the looks. Tiago's Drift Hobby team seems to agree.
Tiago Drift Hobby is young team from Brasil, Sao Paulo that, as the name suggests, likes to go sideways on tracks amidst much smoke and tire sm

Romeo Ferraris has unveiled their tuning program for the superfast gran turismo car – Ferrari 599 GTO. It comes with performance modifications and some minor styling changes.The 6.0 liter naturally aspirated V12 is boosted to 685PS (504 kW) and 633Nm (467 lb-ft), which is an increase of just 15PS and 13Nm. The result is thanks to two upgrades – a high-flow air filter and a different exhaust system.However, the mighty engine can produce up to 710PS (522 kW) and 668Nm (493 lb-ft) after an ECU re-m

It's hard to imagine that the BMW 3 Series, the current one, needs a suspension revision. In fact it doesn't. Even Vogtland themselves admit so. However they have provided one nevertheless. It's for the hardcore fans of sideways lunacy and track day goers.
I say suspension but the whole thing is just a set of springs which lower the car by 30 mm. Supposedly, one would benefit from the lower center of gravity and the better sway control. Nobody can't be quite sure if all works out, but at the

Vossen Wheels equipped the BMW 1-Series ///M with enormous VVS-CV3 concave wheels in dimensions 9J x 20” at the front and 10.5J x 20” at the rear. The rims are finished in nice matte silver machined paint and according to our opinion looks SICK!
Do not bother about the small 1-Series rolling those enormous wheels, b

Nissan GT-Rs have always been a favorite for ambitious tuners. What we see here can only support that theory. It's a collaboration project between two companies – The American based PUR Wheels company and the Indonesian Premier Autowerkz... apparently. The whole project is rather obscure and not much information is available.
On what we can focus however, are those 3 piece “4OUR Depth“ PUR wheels they have fitted. Beautifully made 5 double spokes (that's one way of putting it). It's as if frag

Here's a video of a Ford GT setting up a record on the Texas Mile Event at Chase Field Industrial Complex in south Texas: 257.7 mph - full 4.6 mph faster than the previous champion.
As you might have guessed, this is no ordinary Ford GT. It's a Hennessey job this. Owned by Mark Heidaker, driven by Sean Kennedy this overhauled beast wrote some history. But before that, some professional help was needed. That's when Hennessey Performance glued 34

The New York International Auto Show will be the venue where Shelby American Inc. will debut their most powerful project yet – the GT Ford Shelby 1000 which started life as a more “standard” 2012 GT 500. And no, the 1000 does not consist of two GT 500s. It's only one of them, with handling, power and breaking performance all beefed up.
Although it's called the Shelby 1000, both of the versions in which it will be offered do not develop 1000 bhp. A street legal one has the “mere” 950 ponies whil

Nissan GT-R is one of the best drag racing vehicles currently available on the market. It’s time attack qualities are also astonishing, but almost nothing can compete versus a tuned GT-R. Here, we have one of the fastest GT-Rs in the world – The Hulk. It is a creation of the United Kingdom’s tuning company Severn Valley Motorsport.
The Hulk has completely rebuilt engine with more than 1250HP (932 kW) and still it is a street legal car. The displacement of the twin-turbocharged V6 growth to 4.2 liters. It also ge

Here's a Lamborghini Mercielago LP 640. Beautiful isn't it? Wait! Are you looking at the wheels? Because if you are, PUR Wheels have done their job properly – captivating onlookers with their rose gold concept monoblock wheels titled ’6IX’. Yes, concept wheels are a thing and we are not sure if this is coming out or is it just showing off.
Either way, one has to admit that they look stunning on this dying breed of V12 hypercars. Here, on this rather static gallery, their five, dobule-spoked design can be seen in i
