At the end of last year, European tuning company Mansory revealed the first renders of its special tuning kit for the Porsche Panamera Turbo, detailing a more aggressive and lightweight body kit, as well as a power increase.
A few weeks ago, the finished product was revealed. While we could most certainly applaud the new power ratings of 681 HP plus 516 lb-ft of torque, the biggest (and worst) reactions were aimed at the horrible exterior paint job, combining a bright cobalt blue with electro-yellow.

The BMW X3 is a desirable car for many of us, having four-wheel drive, partial off-road ability, whilst still being as sporty to drive as a BMW saloon. This vehicle, which is categorised by the Bavarian manufacturer as a SAV (Sports Activity Vehicle), is made all the more desirable after a visit to the workshop of the tuning specialist LUMMA from Winterlingen. The X3 is given an even sportier look and more power by fitting various body-styling elements, lowering the suspension, fitting a set of aluminium wheels and tuning the engine.

It looks like the debut of BMW X1 will take place at the Frankfurt Motor and production will start in October 2009. This car will be produced in Leipzig, while BMW estimates that in 2010 to manufacture approximately 50,000 units. I’m sure that BMW X1 will be a success for the BMW Company.

If there is a whole lot of German companies specialized in this, the Japanese are certainly not the lasts on the list. One example is Wald International. Already offering a wide range of possibilities they have recently been working on the prestigious Lexus LS460.
The result, through the well-knowed and used body kit application, is a pleasure for the eyes. Somebody who doesn't know much about cars could easily mistake it for a standard version with bigger and more agressive rims and, in a category which is clearly looking for discretion, this is a positive point.
Instead of going for the looks only, the people at Wald have been working on an improved version of the V8 engine even though very few details have been communicated on this particular area so far.

Honda CR-Z Tuning Begins In Japan by Ben Schaffer
Honda CRZ tuning
While the tuning world waits for the release of the Toyota FT-86, the CR-Z is quietly becoming the latest hot tuner car in Japan. Already HKS has outfitted a CR-Z and run the car at Fuji Speedway (I suspect quite slowly). As an old Honda tuning lover, I cant help but get a little excited seeing the evolution of the beloved CR-X with this CR-Z. I never really imagined a CR-Z existing back when I first started modifying my Honda Prelude…and you know what, I have to admit the CR-Z looks pretty cool to me!
At the moment Mugen as expected has the jump on the CR-Z tuning as they already have released a complete tuning package. At the moment Mugen has come out with a full aero kit, suspension, wheels, an intake and a very curious looking exhaust.

Mugen Tuning Honda CR-Z
Honda CRZ tuning
While the idea of a performance-tuned hybrid may have seemed nonsensical only a couple of years ago, as the earth-friendly vehicles become more mainstream, the sub-segment will undoubtedly grow to attract a fair share of our attention. Case in point: reports from overseas indicate that Mugen is seriously toying with the idea of creating a high-performance version of the upcoming Honda CR-Z.
The Honda tuner par excellence shares a close, even familial relationship with the factory, and it reportedly sees the electric motor in the hybrid drive as a sort of replacement for a turbocharger, offering a bit of low-end boost to small gasoline engines that are down on torque. The result could redefine the Japanese hot hatch as we know it.

Blancpain has been producing innovative masterpieces of watch-making art in Switzerland’s Vallée de Joux since 1735. Each timepiece is assembled by one single watchmaker, reflecting the quality and individual attention with which Lamborghini builds its super sports cars for the road, and its 570 hp Super Trofeo race cars.
