Ferrari SA Aperta

Only 80 Ferrari SA Aperta's will be built

The Ferrari SA Aperta is a limited edition roadster version of the Ferrari 599. Only 80 examples will be built, and they were all sold to hand picked Ferrari customers before the car was even revealed!

Ferrari chose to build 80 SA Aperta's because this year Ferrari's design studio of choice, Pininfarina, turns 80. The SA name also pays homage to both Sergio and Andrea Pininfarina.

The Ferrari SA Aperta is a stunning roadster which builds on the already sublime proportions of the 599 coupe. The fabric roof which comes with the car isn't designed for regular use - it's basically a last resort if you get caught out in the rain. Ferrari don't even try and pretend it's a practical weatherproof solution.

The Ferrari SA Aperta roadster sits closer to the ground than the standard 599, and it also has a slightly lower windscreen. Overall this gives the car a more slippery aerodynamic profile befitting a high-end roadster. The silver fins built into the rear deck of the car nicely compliment the car's silver colored windscreen surround and side mirrors.

The chassis of the Ferrari 599 SA Aperta has been redesigned to offer comparable stiffness to that of a closed berlinetta and there is a negligible weight difference also, thanks to the engineering work done on the chassis structure.

Powering the Ferrari SA Aperta is the same 670 horsepower, 6.0 litre V12 Ferrari put in the 599 GTO. That means this isn't some special edition poser's convertible - well it might be that too - but it's also a serious performance machine designed to compete with the very best supercars on the planet.

McLaren P2 by Rakesh

The McLaren P2 is a concept created by Rakesh Bag , a Student of The Aditya Birla Public School , Veraval , Gujarat from INDIA The styling of the McLaren P2 is more attractive and less clinical than the McLaren P1 , but you can bet your entire worldly possessions on the fact every last millimetre of the bodywork has been extensivley analysed in the windtunnel. The front is unique and original, the way lower part of the bumper flows back into the ‘C’ shaped headlights is inspired. And the P2’s rear end has got to be one of the best in the business. Stunning. “the McLaren P1 and P2 will be the result of 50 years of racing and road car heritage. Twenty years ago we raised the supercar performance bar with the McLaren F1 and our goal with the McLaren P1 and P2 is to redefine it once again.” “Our aim is not necessarily to be the fastest in absolute top speed but to be the quickest and most rewarding series production road car on a circuit,” adds McLaren Automotive Managing Director Anton...

Ferrari Millenio by Marko Petrovic

The Ferrari Millenio designed by Marko Petrovic (27-year-old Serbian designer), is a two-seater supercar concept that features ultra-light weight design with implemented high tech body materials. Inspired from the Ferrari World Park in Abu Dhabi, it features complex back-and-forth body surfaces, textures and materials. Unique about the Ferrari Millenio concept is its body structure made of Buckypaper, a thin sheet made from compressed carbon nanotubes, which is 10 times lighter and over 500 times stronger than steel. The concept feature two electric motors (one for every axle) which can be recharged via solar panels molded around the bodywork or through a traditional power point socket. The Millenio also features multiple LCD-displays throughout the cockpit with the prominent speedometer being the main point of the interior.

1947 - 1959 Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith

SPECIFICATIONS: year: 1947 - 1959 make: Rolls-Royce Model: Wraith Engine: Inline-6 Transmission: 4-Speed Manual Horsepower @ RPM: 135 Displacement: 4880 L The Silver Wraith, launched in 1947, was an evolution of the pre-war Wraith and was offered in the traditional chassis form ready for the fitting of Bespoke coachwork. The 4,257cc overhead-inlet, side-exhaust engine developed before the war was used, as well as a modified coil and wishbone independent front suspension. Hydraulic brakes were used for the first time on a Rolls-Royce with hydraulic brakes. Following their pre-war tradition of manufacturing a rolling-chassis only, Rolls-Royce delivered these cars to be bodied by independent coachbuilders. Some rationalization however was apparent because the sister model Bentley Mark VI incorporated into a 7 inches shorter frame the same major technical components. The Silver Wraith outlived the Mark VI and in fact survived until 1959 having been modernised step by step with vit...
