Toyota Supra with shark look

The Toyota Supra is obviously very interesting to tuners, one of the proofs is the Toyota Supra (A90) with a shark look. It is the work of Zacoe Performance, which has developed a special body kit for this car. The company has prepared several body kits for different models, among which this one stands out the most.

A special body kit brings the olive green color of the body. On both sides of the carbon fiber hood are three openings, reminiscent of shark gills. The carbon fiber front splitter, as well as the side skirts, make the car look closer to the ground. The car got slightly wider wheel arches. At the rear, there is a new diffuser and a large spoiler that complement the sporty look of the car.

How much the body kit will increase the width of the car Zacoe has not revealed. The price of the body kit is not known either, but it is available on request.

Brabus 800 Adventure XLP Superblack

At the Geneva Motor Show in 2020, Brabus presented the Brabus 800 Adventure XLP, which underwent Superblack treatment. It is a car based on the Mercedes-AMG G63.

The car is painted in Obsidian Black Metallic, and a lot of carbon was used in the construction. It is equipped with a modified and improved suspension with an aluminum portal axle, which lifts the car 19 inches (49 cm) off the ground to overcome even the toughest terrain. It is 27.1 inches (68.9 cm) longer than the base model, without a rear spare wheel, so its length is now 5.31 meters.

The complete interior is upholstered in black leather combined with carbon details. The Brabus inscription can be seen everywhere, from the sills to the seats and floor, while the Brabus logo is located on the seat headers. The car bears the markings “77”, which refers to 1977, when the company was founded.

The Brabus 800 Adventure XLP Superblack is powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with 800 hp (588 kW) and 737 lb-ft (1,000 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to all wheels via a nine-speed automatic transmission. It reaches 62 mph in an impressive 4.8 seconds, making this car one of the fastest pickups in the world. The vehicle’s top speed is electronically limited to 130 mph (210 km / h). It is mounted on 22-inch wheels that may not be ideal for harsher surfaces, but they come with all-terrain tires.
