Porsche 911 Carrera S Martini Racing Edition

Porsche is returning to the 24 Hours of Le Mans race this weekend – a perfect excuse to throw another special edition of its iconic 911 into the marketplace.

So this is the new Porsche 911 Carrera S Martini Racing Edition, the ideal sports car for a trip to La Sarthe to cheer on Porsche’s hybrid race car. Available only in black or white, the 911 Carrera S Martini will be limited to 80 units globally.

When can I buy a Porsche 911 Carrera S Martini Racing Edition?

Well you’ll have to be quick. Porsche GB has confirmed the UK will only get two of these special editions.

Each Martini 911 gets the famous racing blue-red livery of Martini Racing along the bootlid, roof section, rear wing and the sides of the car.

Martini Racing Edition badges on the interior and the door sills confirm this 911 Carrera S as a limited edition, in case your eyes somehow missed the bright decals outside.

Standard equipment on this special edition includes the Aerokit Cup (a fixed rear spoiler and a more aggressive front splitter), Sports Chrono package, Porsche Communication Management (PCM) with sat-nav, a Bose sound system and – the best bit – a 400bhp 3.8-litre flat-six hanging out the back.

Lamborghini Diamante

Thomas Granjard's Final year degree project at Coventry University Lamborghini Diamante University project (not developed with Lamborghini) Trailer We're in the year 2023. Oil is getting depleted on our planet. However, mobility will continue to exist, it needs to. Such mobility not only includes boring electric vehicles for the city but also supersportcars with alternative drive systems. Flat, fast, extreme – cars that still set everyone in the mood for mobility without having a bad conscience – such as the eco-friendly Diamante Concept Car. This concept combines exclusivity and extremes in one single supersportcar. The name says it all. The most valuable mineral in the world stands for luxury, but also for naturalness, pureness, hardness and beauty – exactly as the dream car with the white collar. Its extremely flat silhouette is flanked by sharply outlined edges, the curved surface appears to be unpolished, rough, precious. The aerodynamic system uses movable wings to ...

Maserati Ghibli vs BMW 6 Series : Which Will You Buy?

When considering vehicles like Maserati Ghibli and the BWM 6 Series Gran Coupe, both reflect an effort toward blending dignified luxury with exhilarating performance. Though beholding vehicles of this caliber is always an exercise most fruitfully left to the natural eye, the image above serves as a simple example of each sedan’s inherent dignity. In lieu of experiencing each vehicle’s performance profile from behind the wheel, the table provided similarly works to demonstrate what both Ghibli and BMW’s 6 series have been engineered to accomplish. Comparing the Maserati Ghibli vs. BMW 6 Series in this regard yields a number of important emphases. Local clients will notice that both vehicles develop their identity around six-cylinder engines with a pair of strategic turbochargers. Yet regardless of identical displacement and analogous induction technology, Maserati serves its Ghibli clients with significantly greater quantities of horsepower and torque. In addition to t...

Lamborghini Estoque

The Lamborghini Estoque (Spanish pronunciation: [esˈtoke]) is a concept car built by Lamborghini. Unlike current production Lamborghini cars, which are mid-engine two-seat sports cars, the Estoque is a four-door sedan. The Estoque was introduced at the 2008 Paris Motor Show. The Estoque is the first front-engine vehicle by Lamborghini since the LM002 utility vehicle. It is described as a "concept for a $230,000 four-door sedan". It currently houses a 5.2 litre V10 engine, although there has been speculation that this could be replaced by a V12, V8, or possibly even a hybrid or turbo-diesel engine, as suggested by Lamborghini's Brand Director, Manfred Fitzgerald. As with other Lamborghinis, the Estoque derives its name from the sport and tradition of bullfighting: An estoque is a type of sword traditionally used by matadors. Speculation regarding production It was reported on 22 March 2009 that production plans for the Lamborghini Estoque were cancelled. Lamborghini ex...
