up till now, Caterham Cars are like the age of the brand: all vintage and oozing with hotrod styling. not a bad thing, but we think the marque needs something that could do more than just weekend gather-and-meet and that ‘more’ would be answered by the brand’s AeroSeven Concept. it maybe a concept for now, but it is breaking the stigma associated
for the richie rich out there who loves to roll their Gallardo on the track, the Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Squadra Corse would be the perfect machine to do so. not that the Gallardo needs any further souping up to deal with the track, but it would however save you precious time in trying make your Gallardo worthy of the track and

British automaker Aston Martin is looking to past for hints of the future, well, at least that’s on the aesthetic part cos’ the naturally aspirated 6.0-liter V12 petrol unit and its six-speed sequential manual paddleshift gearbox found in this celebratory Aston Martin CC100 Speedster Concept is anything but from the past.
how to make a hot hatch even hotter? as per Volkswagen’s book that would be taking the 2015 Volkswagen GTI and slap it with a twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6 unit that has 503 PS (or about 496 hp) and 560 Nm (413 lb-ft) of torque on the tap. of course, that wouldn’t be all; standards include a seven-speed DSG dual-clutch gearbox that
