New Lamborghini Urus Teaser Shots Leaked, Hint At 4-Dr Sedan

Last week, Lamborghini released teaser photos of their new impending model, the Lamborghini Urus, while keeping all other details sparse, at best. No word on what the actual Lambo body itself will look like, though the guys over at Autopia have made the horrifying suggestion that the photos appear to be a preview of what would be Lamborghini’s first 4-door sedan. According to them, the Urus’ prematurely revealed b-panel is thick enough to indicate an engine that’s been moved to the front, most likely to clear space for a rear seat. Oh, we shutter to think.

Full Lambo striptease after the jump

Bottom line: At first we were downright shocked by Porsche branching out into the 4-dr market with the impending 2010 Porsche Panamera, but now that Lamborghini might also be throwing their hat in the performance sedan ring, we’re downright intrigued. With rich legacies in the sports car market, we’re sure that any new offering from either powerhouse [even if its a minivan], would be a force to be reckoned with on the asphalt. What we’re anxious to see is just how well they pull it off. Keys, please?

Nike outlet puts the "RS" in "sneakers"

Filed under: , , , ,


Click on either image to view more of the GT3 RS-inspired Nike sneakers

Remember the 80's? Frankly, we'd rather not, what with all the neon colors and fifth-grader graphics. But some people just won't leave it alone. Like sneaker freaks, who need to have those Nike high-tops they had (or didn't) as a child. Or Porsche, with their obscenely bright-colored 911 GT3 RS. The two may seem at diametrically opposite ends of the spectrum, but it was only a matter of time before someone brought them together.

That someone is Purchaze, a German retro clothing company. Upon opening its newest location in Holland, a nearby Porsche dealership hooked them up with a Cayman S for promotional purposes. (We would have figured some neon-colored slant-nose would have served better, but what do we know.) As a thanks for the loan, Purchaze whipped up the series of sneakers you see above. Inspired, supposedly, by the GT3, each pair of kicks features the Porsche badge on the tongue and are colored in the shades of the GT3 palette: one pair in orange, one in green, another in black and a fourth in silver. The sneakers were presented to the team at the Porsche dealership, who are wishing they had irregularly-sized feet to use wear them in the pits at an upcoming race. If you want to get your hands on a pair of these, you may have less taste than boiled chicken you can't, because they were made exclusively for the dealership, but Adidas offers a line of Porsche Design shoes that may not, you know, be a cause of embarrassment when worn in public.

10 Cars That Are Guaranteed To Get You Laid

A question that man has feverishly wrestled with since the dawn of time: ”How can I score with that hot chick?” Pick-up lines are overrated and have a higher failure rate than an inner-city high school, and date-rape drugs have the potential to get you 5-10 w/o parole - so whatever is a horny guy to do?

Well looks will got you pretty far, and personality even more so, but if you’re bankrupt on both, a surefire way to get lucky is to drive a sweet ride. So on behalf of RideLust, I have taken it upon myself to compile a list of the top 10 surefire “panty peelers” - rides so undeniably lust-able, any man behind the wheel is guaranteed to score at least one piece of quality ass [by "quality" we mean anything from a 7 to a 10; below a 7 and forget a Lambo, you could score that with a Corolla].

1. Lamborghini Gallardo


Although less expensive [and slightly less powerful] than the Lamborghini Murcielago, the Gallardo is Lamborghini’s best selling sports car - and thus the most recognizable [well, subtle exterior colors like "Epilepsy Orange" and "Reflective Traffic Vest Green" help a little, too]. The Lamborghini Gallardo is a fool-proof way to score, we guarantee it.

2. Bentley Continental GT


An incredibly luxurious sports car, driving a Bentley Continental GT is as good as dipping your exhaust manifold [yeah, that one] in gold.

3. Porsche Carrera GT


The Carrera GT will get you laid, but you have to possess a certain “presence”. Porsche coupes, even the ridiculously expensive ones, have an unfortunate tendency to send mixed signals in the “orientation” area. So if you’re on the prowl in a Carrera; no silk ascots or driving goggles, and if you have a European accent, keep the rolling of your R’s to a minimum.

4. Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren

<
Benz’s attract the fairer sex like moths to a flame, we’re pretty sure all you need to do is stand next to the McLaren and you should manage to snag a babe or two.

5. Ferrari 430 Scuderia


So fast it’s dangerous, taking those curves at white-knuckle speed will get the adrenaline rushing, and the lady in the passenger’s seat feeling wild.

6. Dodge Viper SRT10 ARC


You can never go wrong with 600-horsepower and sleek American muscle - it’s the automotive equivalent of the All-American quarterback, absolutely irrestible to the ladies.

7. Chevrolet Corvette ZR1


Alright, so we’ve got a ride crush on the new ‘vette, so sue us. Although Corvette’s usually have an unfortunate mid-life crisis stigma attached to to them, we’re willing to bet the Corvette ZR1 could jump those hurdles in a single bound [or, at the very least, will get you a semi-hot older chick].

8. Maserati Quattroporte


Maserati’s flagship model, the Quattroporte exudes power and grace, which, like the Corvette, might end up scoring you a few older chicks in addition to the usual gaggle of rubber rats [we mean that affectionately]. Unlike the Corvette, however, the Maserati’s well-established luxury super car status gurantees that any older chicks it attracts will be hot older chicks [think: Demi Moore circa Charlie's Angels, or Penelope Cruz circa any-f*ing-time].

9. Bugatti Veyron


Sort of making the list by default, the Bugatti Veyron is guranteed to get you some simply because it’s consistently ranked among the top 10 most expensive cars in the world. Even a chick who knows nothing about cars [or even just plain nothing - I mean lets face it, you're not after her for her scintillating conversational skills] knows a Bugatti [and a sex symbol] when she sees one.

10. Cadillac Escalade


Now hear us out - even though it’s not considered a “super” anything, the Cadillac Escalade is more of a chick magnet than it’s given credit for. Even though we know that some suburbanites are aggressively attempting to turn it into a grocery-getter, there are still some true mack daddies out there who are holding firm to their Escalades and the bad ass sex appeal they exude. And believe us, Escalades do radiate sex appeal. The big, bulky exterior inspires images of power and raw masculinity, so much so that many a female fantasy often revolves around “intimacy” that actually takes place in the Escalade [or on it, depending on how flexible you are]. So not only will the Escalade get you laid, but with plenty of interior space and rear-folding seats, it will get you laid anywhere, anytime.

Nice Price Or Crack Pipe: Factory Racer Porsche 914-6 For $325,000? [Nice Price Or Crack Pipe]

We had the Herbie The Love Bug replica score a 44% on the Crack-Pipe-O-Meter™ last Friday, but that was due to 21% of the vote going to "other", thanks to a poll glitch. Today we're going with a car that most likely earns an approval rating of about 99.9999% from our readers: a factory-built Porsche 914-6 race car that spent its working life as a test vehicle in Stuttgart and never got beat up on the race track… until a few years ago, when it hit the vintage-race circuit. The car's seller adheres firmly to hallowed eBay tradition and goes for the EASY ON THE EYES CAPSLOCK style, though we're going to have to dock him some points for insufficiently incorrect spelling and punctuation, but it's the car's price that really gets our attention: $325,000! Great car, but would you need to smoke a rock the size of your head to have that price make sense?


[eBay Motors, thanks to Brennan for the tip.

How do you feel about 325 grand for a Porsche 914-6?

2008 Porsche Cayenne Gets Price, Sale Date

Cayenne4

Mike Hanley just came up from the show floor fresh from Porsche’s kickoff press conference with real news. Actual prices and an on-sale date for the 2008 Porsche Cayenne family of SUVs are now in hand.

Prices start at $43,400 for the base Cayenne, $57,900 for the Cayenne S and $93,700 for the now 500 hp Cayenne Turbo. The Turbo can do zero to 60 mph in 4.9 seconds. The trio hits Porsche dealers on March 3 with a revised front and rear design, but the interior has barely been altered — just improved stitching on the seats. We’re serious.
