Honda Civic Type R with a better exhaust system

The Honda Civic Type R is an outstanding car with a powerful engine sound that will not leave indifferent even those who are fans of some other brands. Now a new exhaust system is coming from the British company Milltek, with which the new generation of the powerful Japanese sports car will sound even better.

The new Honda Civic Type R is powered by an improved 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbo petrol engine with 320 hp (235 kW) and 310 lb-ft (420 Nm). Power is transmitted to the front axle, which will be assisted by a limited differential lock, via a 6-speed manual transmission. The company claims that the power of the car has been increased, but the number of horsepower has not been announced. It is also said that the back pressure has been reduced by 20 percent, which will improve its performance.

The company also offers Honda Civic Type R owners an exhaust system option for use only on closed tracks. Some of the interesting details of the high-quality stainless steel system, which contains seven elements and is intended for use on public roads, are the triple exhaust tips, which are now the same diameter and can be ordered in several shades.

This move attracted the unexpected attention of the owners of this powerful car, because 70 percent of the planned amount of exhaust systems was reserved.

Recently, we can often see different unique cars, especially models that are extremely popular, which have become part of the collection of rich collectors and those who strive to become one. One such car is the Porsche 968 L’Art, which became part of the collection of Canadian singer Justin Bieber.

This unique car is the result of a collaboration between a German company and the French fashion brand L’Art de L’Automobile. The car is finished in green with rim covers in the same color. The interior features Recaro seats, while the dashboard features a Tag Heuer stopwatch.

The singer showed the car with a post on his Instagram profile, and the Porsche 968 L’Art can be seen at the very end of the gallery. The photos were taken at Moncler London Fashion Week.

Porsche 968 L’Art is powered by a naturally aspirated 3.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 236 hp (176 kW) and 225 lb-ft (305 Nm) of torque. Most of these models came with this powertrain, given that Porsche didn’t announce any powertrain specs.

Safety cars for the 2023 Formula 1 season

The new season of Formula 1 will start soon, and the safety cars will be Aston Martin and Mercedes-AMG. The contract was signed two years ago and the British manufacturer announced that it will use the Aston Martin Vantage and the recently introduced DBX707. Mercedes-AMG still hasn’t decided which cars it will use.

Aston Martin DBX707 is the most powerful SUV in the world that will replace last year’s DBX. It is powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with 707 hp (520 kW), making it the most powerful SUV in the world. It reaches 62 mph in 3.3 seconds with a top speed of 193 mph (310 km / h). The power of its powerful engine is transmitted to all wheels via a fast 9-speed automatic transmission with improved differential and limited traction.

Aston Martin F1 Vantage is powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with 528 hp (388 kW) and 505 lb-ft (685 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via an 8-speed ZF automatic transmission. It reaches 62 mph in 3.6 seconds with a top speed of 195 mph (314 km / h). Both cars will wear a green livery similar to that of Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll.

Mercedes has yet to reveal which cars it will field in Formula 1 this year. Last season, the AMG GT Black Series was used as a safety car, and the GT 63 S 4-Door Coupe as a medical car.

The new season starts on March 5 in Bahrain, and the last race will be held on November 26 in Abu Dhabi.
