BMW Z10 ED Eco

bmw-z10-ed1Whether you thought BMW was going to let Bentley come up with a biofuel supercar that will get all those ecogeeks excited? Well, they won’t. Developed by the Technik divisio, a two-seat BMW that will go by the name of Z10 ED (Efficient Dynamics) is expected to be a green super car that will blow your mind. Packing a 400hp (298kW) 3.0-liter engine, a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox, F1-derived regenerative braking technology that will store energy in a li-ion battery, and start-stop engine management, it’s rumored that the new Z10 ED will cost something close to $110,000. We’re eager to see how it looks …

Lamborghini Reventon

Tuesday, January 20th, 2009

lamborghini-reventonI want buying a rare Lamborghini Reventon! Very rare and good stuff!! The Silicon Valley Auto Group in Los Gatos, California, have put one up for sale. Kinda brand new, the 2008 Lamborghini Murcielago Reventon has only 73 miles on board, used to be owned by a guy in Missouri and goes for an undisclosed price. And just to see if the girl would be impressed, the little beast has a 6.5-liter V12 dual overhead cam 48V engine under the hood, outputs 650 horsepower, 487 ft-lb of torque, tops at 340 km/h and goes from naught to 100km/h in just 3.4 seconds.

RENNtech-777

Though the trend is to go green, we do not think the horsepower war is over,haha For that reason we bring you the new RENNTECH 777 based beast that outputs nothing more and nothing less than 777 bhp from a highly tweaked 5.5-liter supercharged Kompressor V8 engine. With an aero-kit that packs big wings, splitters and skirts, new suspension, a stronger transmission and a limited-slip differential, the little monster is expected to top at 210 mph. We’re sold on the design, but to be honest we’d expect a much better performance from such an engine.

Jaguar’s XJ220

Jaguar-XJ220-silver-A-640

For a car that doesn’t exist, Jaguar’s XJ220 looks amazing. Though still a rumor, the Brits are expected to revive their amazing sports car (that ruled from 1992 to 1994) and it may look like the renderings in here. With some wide air intakes that dominate the front, a sleek oval grille and stylish ultra-efficient LED headlamps, Jaguar XJ220 is expected to “kill” Audi’s R8 and if anyone’s interested, we think they have a shot. Under the hood, there’s a 503-horsepower, supercharged 5.0-liter V8 engine from the XFR model, that goes naught to 60mph in less than four seconds and tops at 230mph. It’s an amazing design so we can only hope we’ll get this beauty running on our streets, but that looks like an expensive ride. Isn’t it?
