Widebody Smart ForTwo by Konigseder (Smart 451)

Widebody Smart ForTwo modified by Konigseder

Austrian tuner Konigseder had developed a wide body kit for the new Smart ForTwo named the Smart 451 that adds some extra width to car, along with less than awesome flower graphics on the exterior.

This widebody allows the fitting of larger 5-spoke 17-inch alloys that makes the tiny car a bit more aggressive. Konigseder also added a set of Eibach sport springs that bring the ForTwo closer to the ground.

Nissan GT-R R35 Photos - Tuned by Garage Defend

nissan-gtr-garage-defend

Do you have a brand new stock Nissan GT-R on order, or maybe just took delivery? Then “Garage Defend” might have just what you need…specialized in Nissan Sportscars (and a couple others), this very professional dealer told Nihon Car about their latest “beast” based on the Almighty R35 GTR.

Would you trade a couple kilometers per hour in top speed for more braking and cornering stability? (I would!)
Garage Defend says yes and equipped this R35 with genuine DEFEND Carbon Canards on the front bumper but also a GT V-spec MASK (front carbon grill), VOLTEX GT wing, they lowered the car by a good 3 centimeters and also added a Blitz NUR-specF-Ti a muffler to complete the look.

The interior sees the standard seats replaced by a couple “Blood Red” BRIDE bucket seats for more response.

The engine remains in its standard form but with the additional downforce brought by the front bumper and rear wing, the Garage Defend GTR sure knows its way around any circuit.

600 HP Rinspeed ‘Le Mans’ PORSCHE 911 Turbo

Rinspeed has announced its ‘LeMans’ tuner program - now your 997 turbo won’t feel deceptively slow any more.

The party starts with reasonably tasteful ground effects, and a new rear wing. Under that wing you get a 600 hp powerplant featuring new turbos, new intercoolers, and of course, new intake and full exhaust.

Now that you can get to 60mph in 3.3 sec, and a top speed of 343 kmh, you are going to want the brake kit (Massive discs, 8 piston calipers for the front, 6 for the rear) , and the LeMans adjustable suspension.

Lastly, to avoid being laughed at everywhere, be sure to check the box for the 20″ wheel package. The new Rinspeed designed aluminum rims are shod with ultra wide super low-profile tires (245/30 front and 325/25 rear sizes.)

No prices given as yet, but we would recommend budgeting about $60K worth of pocket money (plus the cost of your 997 Turbo.)
