Ferrari 812 N-LARGO S with 840 HP

The Ferrari 812 Superfast is one of the best sports cars from the Maranello-based manufacturer that is soon to be a thing of the past. In his honor, the German tuner Novitec produced three examples of the 812 N-LARGO S based on the 812 Superfast.

The car has a wider body than the 812 Superfast, made of high-strength lightweight carbon. It is equipped with wider front fenders, new rocker panels, integrated rear spoiler, forged 21″ and 22″ Vossen rims, carbon covers for mirrors, carbon bonnet inserts, carbon parts for trunk lid and taillights, carbon diffuser, set of sport springs, sport metal catalysts , replacement exhaust pipes, Novitec tailpipes, and a new exhaust system and modified suspension, so now the car is closer to the ground by an additional 35 mm.

Inside, each customer has the option of personalizing the cabin, so we believe that each of the three planned examples will be different.

Under the hood is a 6.5-liter V12 engine with 840 hp (618 kW) and 554 lb-ft (751 Nm) of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic with manual shifting mode. It reaches 62 mph (100 km/h) in 2.8 seconds with a top speed of 345 km/h (214 mph). As a reminder, the 812 Superfast is powered by the same engine but with 800 hp (588 kW) and 529 lb-ft (718 Nm) of torque.

Novitec recently presented the most powerful Ferrari 812 Competizione ever. It is powered by a 6.5-liter V12 engine with 866 hp (637 kW) and 524 lb-ft (711 Nm) of torque. Ferrari’s sportiest road car reaches 62 mph (100 km/h) in 2.85 seconds, 124 mph (200 km/h) in 7.5 seconds with a top speed of 340 km/h (211 mph).

BMW M4 Competition upgraded by DarwinPRO Aerodynamics

DarwinPRO Aerodynamics is a tuner specialized in extreme body kits, and this time they showed their skills on one of the best cars of the Bavarian company, the BMW M4 Competition.

The first thing that will be noticed when looking at the car is the pink color, which may not appeal to many, but it was the personal choice of the car owner. A lot of carbon fiber components like the $2,500 hood, $2,150 rear wing, side skirts, front splitter, side wings and mirror cup are installed, giving the car more downforce. There are LED daytime running lights reminiscent of those on the BMW M4 CSL, which set a new lap record at the Nurburgring a few weeks ago.

The tuner didn’t change anything under the hood. The BMW M4 Competition is powered by a 3.0-liter biturbo S58 engine with 503 hp (370 kW) and 479 lb-ft (650 Nm) of torque. Power is sent to all wheels via an 8-speed M-Steptronic automatic transmission.

Toyota GR Yaris with 740 HP

The Toyota GR Yaris is the most powerful B-segment car, and thanks to one of the best tuners in all of Oceania, Powertune Australia, it has become a road beast with 740 hp.

The standard Toyota GR Yaris is powered by a 1.6-liter three-cylinder turbo petrol engine with 261 hp (192 kW) and 266 lb-ft (360 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to all wheels via a 6-speed manual transmission. It reaches 62 mph in 5.5 seconds with a top speed of 143 mph (230 km/h). However, thanks to the installation of an upgraded Garrett G25-550 turbocharger with a Turbosmart 45 mm wastegate valve and a Plazmaman 350-370 kw intercooler, the engine’s output is 740 hp (544 kW).

The GR Yaris is finished in dark gray with contrasting black digitally printed decals and gold alloy wheels. It is equipped with camshaft holders and Gelford Performance valve springs that make this 1280 kg car a killer of modern supercars.

For comparison, the Charger SRT Hellcat Widebody has 26 hp less and 1520 kg more than the Toyota GR Yaris. It is powered by a 6.2L V8 engine with 717 hp (527 kW) and 650 lb-ft (880 Nm) of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via an 8-speed shiftable automatic transmission.
