Lamborghini Murcielago Matte Black - SR Auto

They say legends may die but their legacy is everlasting, despite the recent takeover by the Aventador, almost making the Murcie vanish like its predecessor the Diablo, there are still those who fight hard to ensure this does not happen at all. SR Auto is the name and this time they collaborated with fellow Canadian tuners Inspired Autosport to make this beastly looking Murcie. 

The paint job and the wheel set are all custom, PUR 1NE monoblocks. What they made now gives a 631 hp naturally aspirated V12 batmobile, disguised as a Lamborghini Murcielago and it does naught  to 60 mph acceleration in just 3.3 seconds. It’s power is transmitted to all fours through a AWD system and through a 6-speed manual/semi-automatic.

2013 Range Rover “4th Gen"



For those like me who thought the magnificent Range Rover Evoque was really small, no more of that, Land Rover has decided to retain the Evoque´s face but increase the size of the car, that seems like it, and what do we get, a modern piece of intellectual peace. It will debut in the 2012 Paris Auto Show tin September.




Inside, you will find either a 5ltr V8 which gives 375hp while or a supercharged version which gives 510hp, this will be he Range rover sports. A ZF 8 speed automatic transmission is available in all of them. Europe will also receive a V6 and a Diesel 6.



It was built on a lightweight, rivet-bonded aluminum chassis which reduced the car’s weight and hence fuel economic (33mpg on a combined cycle) To the Interior they put the same old charming touch that’s present in their previous models, a leather covered dash and a trapezoidal display screen. This SUV has rebooted an adaptive air suspension and Land Rover claim that its handling will inspire more driver confidence while still maintaining it as an off-road vehicle. Prices are estimated to be around $125,552 (KES 10,540,915)

E60 Roar

If you dream of driving a BMW, drive a E60 M5 BMW. In my case i'd love one with a claret colored vinyl roof oxblood leather upholstery and an opera window. This was the first V10 sedan in the world and was introduced in 2005. featuring a 5Ltr BMW V10 S85 engine.and has 373 kW; 500 bhp; 380 lb·ft of torque. Redline is 8250rpm. Remember Valvetronic in previous BMWs and  famous in the M3? where no throttle butterfly was used, Instead, the engine changed (and still does) its volumetric efficiency by altering the amount of intake valve lift, based on BMW's established double VANOS system, which steplessly varies the timing of both the inlet and exhaust cams, Well in this engine we have individual
throttle bodies per cylinder allowing the engine to operate more efficiently by decreasing pumping losses to achieve more horsepower. 20,548 units were built 19,523 saloons and 1,025 wagons.

Most Beautiful Car of the 80s

The thing about beauty with cars is that its not in the eyes of the beholder...its in everyone's  eyes. There is a clear cut line between beautifully made cars and beautiful ladies...and the reasons are endless. I'm not here to talk about speed today, but the most beautiful car ever made in the 80s. I'm not disclosing it to you till the end so go on reading.

She was born in 1982 and only lived for 10years. If you know your history well, 80s had so much of design revorlution taking place in cars...slant nose 911, the Countach, F40, 81 Corvette, MX-5 miata all these were great looking cars, but there was this particular one broke the trend, not to imply previous cars were trash. The headlamp pockets for example had this dark shadow looked like a mature eagle just about to attack a female partner. Corvette Ferrari Lotus Honda had streamlined cars already but this one brought Streamline +Charisma. This car was like that kid who joins elders in a chess match, not to win but to change the rules of the game boldly enough to even end it no force used just the language.

Its considered to be the slowest of its predecessor and even successors but like i said, speed is out of the question you can also do your engine tricks like they do to it on the drag strips. Beauty without speed? Yes, similar to speed without beauty, how many cars out there combine these two? Pardon me, did u say Bugatti?  No, actually the only car that has come close to  that is none other than the 5th Gen Camaro.

And the death of my car in topic happened to be in August 27, 1992, but the legacy has proven to be everlasting. And now ladies and gents, the most beautiful car of the 80s,  THE 3RD GEN CAMARO.
