DeLorean DMC-12 with 700 HP

The DeLorean DMC-12 is a legendary car that gained fame in the film franchise “Back to the Future”, and is the desire of many car enthusiasts. One of them fulfilled his dream three years ago by buying a car and turning it into a truly outstanding example.

The owner restored the stainless steel body, and then chose a wide body kit that completely changed the appearance of this legendary car. Wide fenders, sills and massive bumpers are produced using a 3D printer and are connected with fiberglass. Inside, sports seats, cluster and door panels, which have been modernized, the central console has been changed, and Rstomod air conditioning controls have been installed. The car also got a Haltech IC7 display, while the rest of the interior has remained in touch with the ’80s when the car gained its fame.

When it comes to the powertrain, the owner removed the 2.8-liter V6 engine and installed a 5.3-liter LS Gen4 with about 700 hp (515 kW) mated to Porsche’s G96 transmission. It’s equipped with individual throttle bodies, 6061 plenums and a titanium exhaust system, and Skol SK17 wheels wrapped in 18×12 front and 17×10 rear Toyo R888R tires.

Novitec Esteso Widebody based on Urus Performante with 782 HP

Lamborghini Urus Performante is the most powerful SUV from the company based in Sant’Agata Bolognese, Italy. However, many tuners want to make it better, and one of the world’s best, Novitec, introduced its last work based on this car, Novitec Esteso Widebody.

The car is equipped with new carbon components such as front bumper, rear spoiler, rear diffuser, wider fenders and hood. There is also a new adaptive exhaust system that creates even more striking sound compared to the standard version. Inside, Novitec offers a wide selection of colors and materials, giving potential customers the opportunity to make their car unique.

Novitec also equipped the Urus with adaptive suspension with shorter springs, making the car closer to the ground for an additional 25 millimeters. It is mounted on reinforced 23-inch Vossen alloy wheels wrapped in 285/35 front and 325/30 rear Pirelli P Zero tires.

Novitec Esteso Widebody is powered by a 4.0L biturbo V8 engine with 782 hp (575 kW) @ 6,200 rpm and 761 lb-ft (1,032 Nm) of torque @ 2,900 rpm. Power is sent to all wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission. It is more powerful than a standard version that has 650 hp (478 kW) and 627 lb-ft (850 Nm) of torque. It reaches 62 mph in 3.1 seconds with a top speed of 311 km/h (193 mph).

Mercedes AMG SL63 S E Performance hits 62 mph in 2.9 seconds

The Mercedes AMG SL63 S E Performance is one of the most powerful Mercedes AMG cars, but also the most powerful SL model. It is a sporty 2+2 Roadster that attracts attention wherever it appears not only with its design but also with the sound of the engine like an enraged beast.

The car is powered by a 4-liter V8 biturbo engine combined with an electric motor (204 hp), on the rear axle, with a total power of 816 hp (608 kW) and 1,047 lb-ft (1,420 Nm) of torque. That’s enough to push the powerful car from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 2.9 seconds with a top speed of 317 km/h (197 mph). Behind the cover on the rear bumper hides the connection for charging the 6.1 kWh battery, which ensures a range of 13 kilometers.

The AMG SL63 S E Performance features a fabric folding roof whose active aerodynamics, along with an adaptive suspension and mechanical limited-slip differential, are tuned to ensure superior handling. There is also a steering system (i) via the rear axle, eight work programs and adaptive integral drive (4Matic+). It sits on 20-inch aluminum wheels wrapped in 265/40 front and 295/35 rear Michelin tires. It is equipped with carbon-ceramic brakes with 420mm front and 380mm rear discs.

And while AMG still claims that they made no mistake when they made the decision that the new generation C-Class (C63) will be powered by a 2.0L four-cylinder hybrid, many potential buyers have turned to other car companies. However, everything remained the same with the SL.
