BMW M3 and confusedly reveals called M5 M performance editions limited in United Kingdom.



BMW is introducing two new Special Edition cars in the United Kingdom based m off the M3 Coupe and sedan M5, and gave them both the same head-scratching name: Edition m performance. Yup, allow us to introduce the issues and performance M M3 M5.

Once you've gotten past the strange name, the English that you can buy these cars m will find that both are available exclusively with "frozen" matte paint finish for BMW. Buyers can choose from the colours white and blue Frozen, while opaque red is available as a package rather than a full painting. All cars get matte-finished black wheels (19s on M3; 20s on M5) and black leather interior.



The M3 M performance also gets contrast color stitching on the seats and door panels, and is available with DCT dual-clutch seven-speed BMW standards. The list of M5 ' s special items include a backup camera, front seats, M Sport and internet connectivity. If you live in the United Kingdom and can address both Frozen paint squeamish of these cars, we suggest you hurry: BMW will build just 30 examples of each.

The moniker "M Performance" is confusing in light of BMW's plans to create a series of sub-M car using the same brand. Here in the United States, there is a package of power Performance for the 2013 M X 6, and Europe has already got a trio of tri-turbo diesel Performance M models. From BMW to name logic, that would mean that the car M3 and M5 M benefits are actually sub-M cars. Or maybe with diesel engine. But of course not — so, um, yeah.
The cars are probably the name for the Division of in-house performance of BMW, which has recently been renamed under the — you guessed it — name m services. Dizzy yet? Tags: BMW, BMW M, BMW M3, BMW M5

Ferrari Enzo successor to debut this year, confirming the Boss



Successor for the Enzo Ferrari Debuts at times this year, Luca di Montezemolo, President of the company announced at a press conference this morning. "At the end of the year, there will also be unveiling the new Enzo, a model of limited series and our first ever hybrid car," he said. This is a little bit before the premiere that we estimated 2013 when we took a prototype during recent tests. Keep in mind that just because he calls the new Enzo doesn't mean the car will actually be called the new Enzo. The name "F70" is floating like a rumor, but we cannot confirm anything yet.

Whatever the name, Enzo's successor will pack a V12 engine and was equipped with a hybrid system. (You can read more about installing hybrid, Ferrari car revealed Beijing April show, here). The combined power should top 900 HP, which is almost sufficient to feed one side of a Lockheed P-38 Lightning.

Lotus reveals the new GTC Evora race car that headed towards Rolex Sports Car Series Grand-Am



The Lotus automaker cannot be on an even at this time, but Lotus Racing seems to be chugging along fine. A hopeful sign: the outfit recently revealed its latest racing cars based on the Evora, the GTC. While the Evora GTC is not exactly new — is an evolution of the hardest core of Evora GT4 Enduro racer suit current — is damn cool-looking.



To create the GTC, Lotus Racing has started with an Evora GT4 and stripped out some 66 kilograms, replacing the panels of fiberglass doors, roof and bonnet with carbon fiber parts. Lotus also installed windows in Plexiglas, and the result is a 2500-pound weight waiflike fillet. (The most recent road car Lotus Evora S we tested weighed in at 3171 lbs.) Traction control and a Bosch anti-lock braking system were installed, as were 18 inch tyres which necessitated wider flares fender that's awesome see in the pictures. Powertrain, GT4 carries the Evora GTC, which means the same as 450 hp, 4.0-liter V-6 engine and paddle shifting sequential shift 6-speed.
Try the Evora GTC in the coming races Rolex Sports Car Series. McMahon Raceworks already has placed an order for the new car, and another team currently running an Evora GT4 will soon have its self updated status of GTC. If you want a plus 400-hp Evora for use away from the track, we suggest always on the Horn with Lotus and begging the company send the GTE road car only China here to tag of the United States: Lotus Evora, Lotus, Lotus Evora GTC |

Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series Goes Monochrome, Tears It Up in New Video



What’s black, white, and loud all over? This new video from Mercedes-Benz, in which the 2012 C63 AMG Coupe Black Series gets down and boogies for the camera.

The car was shot in black and white, which adds a dose of cool—of course, a video of a Black Series snorting about in color would probably be just as entertaining, if less dramatic. That’s because the Black Series takes the already-powerful C63 AMG coupe and ups the ante with a 510-hp version of that car’s 6.2-liter V-8, a track-ready suspension, extra-wide fender flares, and less weight. Since fewer than 100 examples of the $108,575 Black Series will be shipped here—and most of those are already spoken for—this video likely is the closest you’ll get to seeing one, period. Enjoy the video below.

That’s Infotainment: 2013 Cadillac XTS Buyers Get Free iPad to Learn CUE



When the 2013 XTS hits showrooms in late May, it will be the first Cadillac product available with the marque’s new CUE (Cadillac User Experience) capacitive-touch infotainment system. To complement their purchase, Cadillac XTS buyers also will receive an iPad—customized for Cadillac buyers, naturally—intended to accelerate the CUE learning curve while using the same technology upon which it is based, that of tablets and smartphones.

Cadillac is hardly the first automaker to use tech from Cupertino as a sweetener. At one time, Hyundai was including iPads with the purchase of its Equus; Saab did the same for those placing early orders for its 9-4X. Bentley’s Mulsanne Executive,  Jaguar’s XJ Ultimate, and Mercedes-tuner Brabus’s 800 all feature integrated iPads in their interiors.



Equipped with Cadillac’s CUE app (available for download from the App Store in late May), iPad users will be able to experience CUE’s interface, enabling them to test-drive the system and review tutorials anytime and anywhere, in or out of the vehicle. Originally intended as a learning tool to educate dealership technicians, the app was deemed useful enough to make available to a wider audience. In addition to the CUE app, the Caddy’s gratis iPad also includes the MyCadillac app and OnStar RemoteLink.

In addition to Bluetooth connectivity providing access to contacts, audio files, and other useful information from your smart device, CUE also features GPS navigation, OnStar, weather maps with Doppler radar, stereo controls, and Pandora and XM radio. And because it’s a Linux-based system, it’s possible that the system could be further enhanced by third-party developers.
To avoid alienating its core-customer base during CUE’s transition from the computer lab to the dashboard, Cadillac has established a network of consumer resources before the fact. CUE experts have been added to Cadillac’s customer-service call center, and OnStar reps will be similarly knowledgeable. In addition, U.S. Cadillac dealers will provide assistance from CUE-trained associates. Tags: Cadillac, Cadillac XTS, iPad, iPad apps |

Mini John Cooper Works 2013 GP Hatchback: Mini has saved his fastest for final


We previously we ran a couple of speculative stories on the Mini John Cooper Works GP. It is with some relief that we are now able to provide official information and images of the worst-kept secrets Mini.

Mini United debut officially at the Festival at Le Castellet, France, the Mini John Cooper Works 2013 GP is basically the Mini John Cooper Works with most of the works. That includes a body kit looking for media with a front fascia air devouring, new side skirts, a rear diffuser and a carbon wing above the backlight. Four wheels — rays mirrors and red lipstick, for that matter — tend to look funny on cars less capricious than the Mini, but as innately playful with the predecessor of this car, the mischievous 2006 Mini Cooper S John Cooper Works GP Kit, this model looks pretty zippy. The jury of c/d is on black, silver and Red the GP's new body graphics decals come off easily, but how they are applied.

All we know is 8:23

Other performance improvements include removal of the seat back of tailgate, as well as the installation of a suite of race-worthy bit frame, including an adjustable suspension, upgraded brakes and high-performance tires. Detailed specs on these components, as well as those relating to the GP engine, which we expect to be a version of the turbocharged 1.6-liter four-banger fellow JCW found in larger, will be revealed this year closer to GP marketing. The GP should get the same 211 HORSEPOWER and 221 lb-ft of torque from the 1.6 litre how compatriot JCW, however. We must wait to learn how Mini plans to pay for the new super Cooper, as well as what slice of its 2000 production units run will be handed out to American customers. We have learned, however, that all 2000 vehicles has confirmed at this point will be sedans. If Mini goes ahead with any coupes JCW GP will be part of a separate production.

However shy with ProductDetails Mini is to be at this point, has provided a particularly revealing statistics: 8 minutes and 23 seconds, the door JCW GP 2013 laps the legendary Nurburgring Nordschleife considerable 19 seconds faster than its predecessor. Grinding that we are journalists, we prefer to verify that ourselves. Just tell us where to go.

Porsche Planning a Panamera Junior, Still Considering Ferrari FF–Baiting Coupe



The Porsche Panamera (above) will have a smaller sibling.


Porsche is planning to add a mid-size four-door to its lineup. Internally referred to as Pajun, as in Panamera Junior, the low-slung hatchback sedan will be based on Audi’s MLB platform—just like the upcoming Macan crossover SUV. Priced between $60,000 and $100,000, the new four-door will compete with the likes of the Mercedes-Benz CLS, the Audi A7, the Jaguar XF, and an upcoming baby Quattroporte from Maserati.

The Pajun will be powered by a choice of V-6 engines, including a diesel, a hybrid, and several gasoline units; power could range from 300 hp to more than 500. As the MLB platform is front-drive-based, which does not fit Porsche’s image and heritage, we expect the new sedan to be available only with all-wheel drive. It could reach the market by 2017.

Porsche also is in the exploration stages for a super sporty, mid-engine two- or four-door vehicle competing in the $200,000-plus range and positioned well above the Panamera. Codenamed 960, it would directly target the Ferrari FF, but the project is far from certain. If it comes, it won’t arrive until after the Pajun.

Spy photos of Porsche 918 2014: it is Captain Planet would drive


What it is: New supercar, Porsche 918, 2014 that will be launched as a Spyder with a removable top and as a hybrid. Later, a body Coupe and racing versions could be added.

Why it matters: This car is the spiritual successor of 959 eighties and almost ten years old but not forgotten Carrera GT. The name also evokes memories of 918 model car racing infamous 917. This new supercar is showcase of the latest technology of Porsche, will be the company's most expensive car and is designed to offer extreme performance and efficiency simultaneously.

Platform: As the Carrera GT, 918 is an extremely low to mid engine supercar. The 918 Spyder is built on a standalone platform, but we feel that share components with the 911.

Engines:Propulsion is by a naturally aspirated, 9000-plus-rpm 4.6-liter V-8 with 570 hp, a rear electric motor with approximately 120 CV and an electric motor combined with front of about 110 hp. at 770 hp. Porsche will utilize lithium ion batteries, performance-oriented. (For a discussion of powertrain, 918 and more information, check out our tour prototype).

Contest: The air is thin in this price segment; There will be fully electric and therefore much less usable competitors like the Audi R8 e-tron and the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG E-Cell; the car will also be compared with other Supercars, Lamborghini Aventador LP700 as-4 and the successor of the McLaren F1.

What could go wrong: Even if you handle three different sources is extremely challenging, we have undoubtedly Porsche will pull out. But is this hybrid supercar thing looking for buyers? Many will keep in a garage at a controlled temperature, while others will want to take on the track; but who wants to drive on electrons only with this type of car? Don't worry too much, though, this thing is going to kick ass.

Estimated arrival time and price: Try the 918 in 2013 or early 2014 end, priced at about $ 850,000. A total of 918 examples will be produced and not one more — at least the original body style. If the name is found on the bottom of the waiting list future-918-owners, Porsche will offer exclusive rights to purchase one of the 911 Turbo S Edition models 918 Spyder — even with a maximum of 918 units to be built — to keep you entertained whilst your 918 is prepared. At $ 161,650, it is a must for any owner 918; or at least so suppose the logic goes for buyers in this market segment.



Turbo Version of Subaru BRZ’s FA-Series Engine Debuts in Japanese Legacy, Will Power Next WRX



We recently confirmed that we won’t be seeing a turbocharged Subaru BRZ anytime soon; however, we now have a fairly good idea of what kind of power such a model will eventually bring. Subaru has dropped the first turbocharged variant of its 2.0-liter, FA-series flat-four engine—the naturally aspirated version of which powers the BRZ and its Toyota/Scion brethren—into the refreshed Japanese-market Legacy sedan and wagon.

The turbo FA20?s output numbers are impressive: 296 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque. In the JDM Legacy, the engine is bolted to Subaru’s CVT, likely for fuel-economy reasons; we’d expect a turbo BRZ to offer a proper manual transmission and an auto similar or identical to the one it uses now.



The new turbo FA features Subaru’s own direct-injection setup, as opposed (boxer-engine pun intended) to the BRZ’s Toyota-derived direct- and port-injection heads. We think the 2013 BRZ is pretty fun already, even with only 200 hp powering the rear wheels—close to 300 hp sounds like it would be silly fun.
Turbo BRZ uncertainty aside,  we’ll likely see this engine appear on our shores within the next year or two under the hood of the next-generation WRX and STI. We previously confirmed that the sporty models will be powered by a turbocharged iteration of the 2.0-liter FA motor, and that the STI’s engine will produce north of 300 hp. The new 2.0-liter turbo four will replace the 2.5-liter turbo in the current 265-hp WRX and 305-hp STI. Although the thought of a 296-hp WRX and an even-more-powerful STI sounds pretty good, chances are the WRX will make something less than that, while the STI will make a little more.
A big motivator for Subaru moving the WRX and STI to the smaller 2.0-liter turbo is, of course, fuel economy—the current 2.5-liter is thirsty. It goes without saying that more power and better efficiency for the next WRX and STI are good things. Now all we have to do is wait for the duo to arrive.

Volkswagen Beetle Fender Edition Is a Go, Minus Guitar-Compatible Sub


Taking its Fender-badged-stereo partnership to the next logical level, Volkswagen showed the Beetle Fender concept at last year’s Frankfurt auto show. We’ve now learned that the car will indeed reach dealers, albeit somewhat watered down.
Among the details to be ditched for production are the guitar-enabled subwoofer in the trunk and the iPod dock/head unit with its vintage-style mesh surround. (A sub will be fitted, but our sources tell us that you’ll have to connect your axe via the aux-in port or via Bluetooth using smartphone apps. Volkswagen previously offered this capability, sorta, when it gave away crappy, aux-plug-equipped guitars with some of its models a few years ago.) The most unlikely of the concept’s features to make it to production, the dashtop tube amp, will be tossed, too. Bummer.
The sunburst pattern? Yeah. The plug-equipped sub? Not so much.
The sunburst-patterned dash trim will carry over, although we haven’t confirmed if it will be real wood or some facsimile thereof; the latter is highly likely. The concept also featured retro tailpipes, some red exterior trim, and a lowered suspension, details that shouldn’t be too hard to adapt to the assembly-line version. The suspension, for example, could simply be the Beetle Turbo‘s, which is lower than that of other models. No firm date was given for availability, but we anticipate the special edition will arrive before the end of the year. Tags: Volkswagen, Volkswagen Beetle, Volkswagen Beetle Fender Edition |

2013 BMW M135i: not a real M, but its rapid m



The 1 series M coupe is going out of production, but there will be a successor: here is the M135i, the most powerful derivative of second generation 1 series. But before you get out your checkbook, I know that is based on the three-door and five-door hatchback, and it is for this reason that there is little chance that it will be offered in the United States.

We compare M135i to his spiritual predecessor, the 1 series M coupe, although the new car was noticeably subdued. BMW did a real m drive, but rather part of the line m recently launched performance that started with turbo diesel models tri only for Europe, but will expand to include the series 3 as well. M m instead of performance means that the placement of the car is less strong, but it is offered with more options. While the old car was only available with a manual, the M135i will be offered with a manual six-speed gearbox and an eight-speed automatic; This year will be adding a version of all-wheel drive. For the ultimate camouflage, even you'll be able to do it with five doors.

The M135i weighs 154 pounds less than 1 m in pursuit of better performance and fuel efficiency. Powered by a 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-six, output is rated at 315 hp; maximum torque 332 lb-ft is available at just 1300 RPM. According to BMW, the M135i requires 4.9 seconds to reach 62 mph with the automatic and 5.1 seconds with the manual. Those numbers are probably a bit conservative, but not for long. For reference, the BMW 1 series M Coupe estimated with its engine-335 hp twin turbo to hit 60 mph in 4.7 seconds. In our tests, it reached 60 in 4.5. Likely that weight savings is what keeps the M135i so close, despite being down 20 horses over 1 M.

Despite our enthusiasm for 0 to 60 times on par with M, we are less happy about the fact that the great hydraulic power steering makes electromechanical power steering mode. We found the steering to be sticky in some great BMW, although it worked well in a 335i we recently tasted.
Visually, the M135i looks the part. Sits on 18-inch specific wheels and 225/40 rubber front 245/35 at the rear. There are the large front air intakes that take the place of the fog, there is a unique body kit and exhaust system with two high-performance tips. The Interior is a steering wheel, seats and Alcantara instrumentation highlighted in red.The M135i will face fierce competition, in particular the Audi RS3 Sportback and upcoming AMG Mercedes-Benz A45. As great as those machines are or will be, we think that the BMW is special because it is the only car rear traction in this group, and why you can still get a manual transmission. And we certainly think you could arrive in the United States as well.
The M135i, of course, is only the most attractive member of a whole family of models of series 1 has three launch this year in Europe. There will be the petrol models ranging from 101 HP to 215 hp turbo-diesel and ranging from 114 hp to 215 hp, equipped with four Turbo-firecrackers. Awesome, but it will still six.

In addition, the torque curve is now higher on the engine speed range.
Regarding the speed, the new engine of 0-100 km/h jumps in just 3.8 seconds, 0.2 seconds less than with its predecessor 4.0 seconds.
