There is no need to adjust your monitor color settings…you are looking at a Mercedes Benz SL65 AMG black in orange. This is by far the most loud and dare I say best looking I have ever seen an AMG Black series. According to the Flickr account where I found the product the car is sitting at the AMG Headquarters in Affalterbach, Germany.

New Feature: Tony’s Twin Turbo Acura NSX

Twin Turbo Acura NSX

Tony Khamly’s Acura NSX is a local Southern California resident and once we set eyes on his twin turbo NSX it was a no brainier that we had to feature it. This 1992 NSX with the C30A engine is a perfect build vehicle as you can avoid the headaches of the ODB-2 on the newer models.

Starting with the exterior you can see GT-Rom front lip and VIS NSX-R carbon fiber hood allow the car to really stand out looking at it from the front. To compliment this aggressive stance Marga Hills carbon fiber side skirts were installed. Moving to the rear and completing the exterior package is a Backyard Special carbon fiber trunk and a Dreamsport Carbon R wing.

The C30A powerplant we mentioned earlier was not enough power for Tony and he quickly decided a twin turbo kit was quickly in order. He placed an order for two Garrett GT28 ball-bearing turbos that were mounted under the rear bumper. Two TiAL 38mm wastegates dump the turbine driving gases while the two Greddy S-Type blow-off valves vent the air back out. Custom built intercooler piping was needed for the two side mount intercoolers put in the rear bumper as well. To maintain this whole turbo kit on an expensive NSX motor he called on AEM for their quality Engine Management system.

With his gorgeous exterior setup and his twin turbo system providing more power than Acura engineers could of even dreamed of when producing the car he needs a good overhaul in his suspension/braking area as well. Buddy Club coilovers start the new suspension process along with sever Comptech links and bars. NRG provided some engine torque dampening with it’s engine dampeners. Comptech SS brake lines connect to the stock brake kit which was upgraded with Brembo cross-drilled rotors and Axxis Street/Track pads. Very rear 18×9.5 (rear) and 18×8 Work Termist S1C’s put all the power to the ground with the help of Dunlop Sport FM901’s in 265/35/18 (rear) and 215/35/18’s (front).

Inside a Ferrari F50 at night – Amazing Gauge Cluster

January 27th, 2009

The exterior of the Ferrari F50 has to be one of the most gorgeous looking vehicles on earth made to date! We just did a mini story on the Liberty Walk Ferrari F50 earlier this month which blew us away. Now with this photo you can stare at the gauge cluster like you were behind the wheel of your very own F50. At least while you stare at this photo during work in your horrible Office Depot chair you can close your eyes and pretend your in a Ferrari F50.
