BMW M3 Competition xDrive with more than 1000 HP

The BMW M3 Competition xDrive is a high performance sedan with impressive performance and no upgrades. However, many are trying to show that this car can do more than the factory one, and the tuner company Bimmer PR has done just that.

The BMW M3 Competition xDrive is powered by a 3.0L inline-six engine with 503 hp (370 k) and 479 lb-ft () of torque. However, a series of modifications including a KLM Race S58 turbo system, a Precision Turbo & Engine 725 Gen 2 turbocharger, a Valvetronic titanium exhaust system, as well as a CSF pressurized air cooler in the intake manifold, raised the engine’s output to 1,026 hp (755 kW). Power is sent to all wheels via an eight-speed automatic gearbox.

Inside, carbon bucket seats are trimmed in red leather and fine black fabric. Red leather also covers the door panels and armrest, while the steering wheel is wrapped in black leather.

The car uses E85 ethanol fuel, which can increase power and torque by up to 20 percent in some cars, and thanks to the increased exhaust gas flow, the turbines spin faster. How powerful this tuned M3 is, is shown by the fact that it delivers more power than the Ferrari SF90, Lamborghini Revuelto or Bugatti Veyron.

Modified Range Rover

Range Rover is difficult to modify with taste. There are several aftermarket packages that can precisely match the style and elegance of the Range Rover body and enhance it in some way. RDB LA and 1016 Industries have done just that by introducing the Silver Surfer.

The car is covered in satin silver aluminum foil that makes it stand out even next to an exotic supercar. It is equipped with a front lip spoiler, extended sills, more pronounced wheel arches and a redesigned front bumper with a diffuser, a new exhaust system, and a roof spoiler. The price depends on whether the components (made by 1016 Industries) are painted ($28,500), made of carbon ($35,000), or forged carbon ($40,000).

RDB LA, based in Los Angeles, equipped the car with new 26-inch retro rims. Although their size may have a negative impact on comfort, the brushed aluminum finish matches the exterior design perfectly.

“I believe our latest package brings this vehicle to perfection,” said founder and CEO of 1016 Industries Peter Northrop.

Mansory Tempesta based on the Ferrari 296 GTB

Two years ago, Ferrari presented a new hybrid car that has found its place above the F8 Tributo, the Ferrari 296 GTB. A powerful supercar that delivers outstanding performance, but there are always those who feel they can make it better, like tuner Mansory who introduced the Mansory Tempesta based on the Ferrari 296 GTB.

Mansory Tempesta is powered by a 3.0-liter biturbo V6 engine combined with an electric motor with a total power of 870 hp (640 kW) and 553 lb-ft (750 Nm) of torque. A significant increase in power was achieved thanks to ECU modifications and a sport exhaust system with sport cats. As a reminder, the standard 296 GTB has 819 hp (602 kW) and 546 lb-ft (740 Nm) of torque. The Tempesta hits 62 mph in 2.8 seconds, 0.1 second faster than the 296 GTB. Top speed is the same, 205 mph (330 km/h). Power is sent to the rear wheels via an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

The aggressive design really suits the Italian supercar. A new forged carbon fiber front fascia, front splitter, forged carbon wings on the front fenders, new side mirrors and dramatic thresholds, impressive rear applications with rear diffusor, spoiler and winglets, are some of the aerodynamic parts that adorn the exterior of this car. It’s mounted on a set of 21″ and 22″ YT.5 fully forged light weight wheels wrapped in 255/30R21 front and 335/25R22 rear tires.

Inside, the seats are upholstered in yellow leather that also covers the door panels, dashboard and center console. There are also new floor mats, additional carbon details and a series of red details around the air vents and cup holders.

Mansory did not reveal the price of the upgrade, but we will have more information soon.
