McLaren F1 is the most powerful supercar produced by McLaren between the years 1994-1998, from the 100 cars: 65 are street versions, 5 are LMs (which was build to honor victory at Le Mans in 1995) and 3 are Gts (the road versions of the 1997 F1 GTR racing car) and 28 F1 GTR made for the roads.
The Chief Engineer Gordon Murroy`s concept refers to the use of expensive materials like: carbon, titanium, gold and for the first time, the use of carbon fiber monocoque chassis.

Power? Here is a good question, the car has the power output at 627 horsepower or has an imperial HP. The super car is powered by an 6 L V12 engine built by BMW, 627 HP at 7400 rmp, same as road car version.

2012 Volkswagen Tiguan SUV can be ordered in two different versions

The new VW Tiguan is an SUV with design parallels to the larger Touareg with powerful and at the same time fuel-efficient engines; fuel consumption is 5.3 litres per 100 km for the two front-wheel drive Volkswagen Tiguans 2.0 TDI with BlueMotion Technology (81 kW / 110 PS and 103 kW / 140 PS).





An SUV that shuts off the engine completely whenever possible in city driving thanks to a Stop/Start system. SUV that is ideal, versatile companion for life on the move with its excellent all-round characteristics, great practicality, 1,510 litres cargo space, up to 2,500 kg trailer load (with 4MOTION all-wheel drive) and many cleverly designed features. In Germany, the perfected Tiguan will arrive on the market in mid-June 2011; other European countries will follow at the beginning of August, and overseas markets at the end of August.
The front end design was completely reinterpreted. The Volkswagen Tiguan is still the only SUV in its class that can be ordered in two different versions: one for on-road use and one specially tuned for off-road driving. Visually, the two models differ in their front ends (“On-road” has an 18 degree angle of approach, “Off-road” 28 degrees).
Both models now show greater independence, better dynamic performance and more stylistic precision. In addition, like the on-road version, the off-road version is now also available with a top equipment line. In this case, the off-road specialist is known as the Track & Style (on-road: “Sport & Style”).

2012 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Centennial Edition with V8

Strategy changes the next-generation Corvette has been planned by General Motors to attract more customers. Traditionally, the Corvette has always been offered with high-displacement eight-cylinder powertrains, but the C7 Corvette may also offer a small, turbocharged V8.





However, traditional V8 enthusiasts need not worry, as the story states that a full range of engines will be available, including the classic larger displacement units that have traditionally found a home in the Corvette.
Of course, the rumormill about exactly what’s in store for the C7 Corvette continues to swirl. We’ve heard everything from a mid-engine layout to a split rear window design that pays tribute to the 1963 ‘Vette. Whatever the case, GM just invested $131 million in the Bowling Green, Kentucky plant that builds the Corvette and the all-new model is expected to arrive within the next two to three years.

2012 Pagani Huayra has a 1350 Kg dry weight

In the Veneto region of northern Italy lies the Adria International Raceway, and it hosted Pagani‘s engineers as they played around with their new toy. The Pagani Huayra measures 4605mm in length, 1169mm in height, 2036mm in width and has a 2796mm wheelbase, the official Pagani Huayra specs say it has a 1350 Kg dry weight with a 44% front 56% rear weight distribution.


The exact safety equipment used by the Pagani Huayra has not been revealed, but the company clearly states that it compiles with all the regulations imposed by both the European and the USA market. We guess that if you’re doing 370 km/h they’re pointless anyway. The exact pagany Huayra price list has not been announced, but early estimates put it around the 1 million Euro mark, we’ll have more details regarding the Pagani Huayra price and exact date when it will go on sale at a later time.
