BMW M2 With 741 HP

While BMW is testing the new generation Coupé M2 model, German tuning company Lightweight Performance has decided to upgrade the BMW M2 (F87 Series).

The BMW M2 Competition has a 4-liter six-cylinder biturbo engine that delivers 410 hp and 405 lb-ft of torque. With a top speed of 174 mph it reaches 62 mph in just 4.4 seconds.

To increase the performance of the outgoing BMW M2 (F87 Series), Lightweight Performance engineers increased engine power to 741 hp and 649 lb-ft of torque. A six-speed manual transmission is installed for faster power transmission to the rear axle.

Increasing performance also required additional interventions. To increase stability and handling, the car’s weight has been reduced and the suspension strengthened. Eibach forged 19-inch Titan 7 wheels and an M Performance braking system have been added.

Inside, there are heated Alcantara leather seats with M2 logos and a steering wheel covered in Alcantara leather. The roof, hood, fenders and three-piece front spoiler are made of carbon, as is the rear spoiler.

Upgrade prices have not been announced.

Porsche 911 GT3

Porsche has tested the durability and reliability of the recently unveiled new 911 GT3 model.

Porsche has always been committed to the durability and reliability of its cars. On the Italian Nardò track, Porsche tested the new GT3 model by driving it at full speed. During testing, the car covered 3,100 miles (5,000 kilometers) in less than 17 hours at a speed of 186 mph (300 km / h).

After 22,000 hours of testing, the 4-liter six-cylinder Porsche 911 GT3 engine proved to be durable, which was the goal of Porsche engineers. To achieve these results, the new 911 GT3 uses an oil system similar to race cars, as confirmed by Thomas Mader, a specialist in GT road engine engines at Porsche.

Although it is not more powerful than its predecessor, it is much faster and more durable. The top speed that this car can reach is 197 mph (317 km / h). The new GT3 showed its capabilities at the Nürburgring where it was 12 seconds faster than its predecessor.

Mercedes CLS

After Mercedes-Benz unveiled the third generation of the CLS model in 2018, the Stuttgart based company decided to redesign the exterior of the luxury Coupé sedan.

The CLS has a new radiator grille, new bumpers and sports air intakes with vertical bars. The interior is equipped with a combination of leather and upholstery, as well as a new generation of leather steering wheel and a new center console. There are also two large 10-inch screens next to each other (standard) and two 12-inch screens (optional). With the Driving Assistance Package (optional extra), the driver is supported by Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC and Active Steering Assist. The car is painted in metallic blue.

Depending on the type of exterior (AVANTGARDE or AMG Line), the CLS features 19-inch or 20-inch wheels. If you choose the Limited Edition (limited to only 300 units) you will get a range of black details with dark tinted glass for the classic look of the CLS 53.

The engine is still the same. The CLS 53 4MATIC + still offers 435 hp and 384 lb-ft of torque. Thanks to the integrated drive generator, the CLS gets an additional 21 hp and 184 lb-ft of torque.
