Eagle Speedster - Auto Sportive
It is so beautiful that before you get on board, you need to carefully look at it, perhaps from all sides, in order to enjoy even the smallest details. I usually think of collectors who buy two identical pieces, one to ride and one to display somewhere in their vast territory, but in this case I understand them. This is the second speedboat created with love and passion by Paul Brace and the Eagle Boys and this version of the Superleggera is even prettier than the first. The changes are minimal, but they make a big difference in terms of appearance. For example, the drains are now two, central instead of four and around the headlights, silver replaces black. The inside of the leather is smooth, not quilted,…
Used Sports Cars - Audi RS4 4.2 V8 - Sports Cars
Used Sports Cars - Audi RS4 4.2 V8 - Sports Cars Second Series The Audi RS4 was born in a period of abundance: in 2006, the actual war on emissions had not yet begun, and manufacturers (especially German ones) competed to put the biggest engine under the hood of their sedans. Audi decided that the 2,7 V6 biturbo engine for the RS4 was too small: a V8 was needed. So the RS4 B7 (as it's called) is powered by a naturally aspirated 4.2 FSI V8 engine capable of 420 hp. and 430 Nm of torque, shots from 0 to 100 km / h in 4,8 seconds and reaches me 250 km / h autolimitati.

Weekend on the Track: Best Sports Cars - Sports Cars
The track is one of the best places to express your desire to run, along with Mottarone and the roads of Wales. However, given that about 99% of the world's population does not live in Wales or at the foot of the Mottarone, it is better to choose the first option. Although modern sports cars have tremendous power and very powerful brakes, not all of them are suitable for heavy use on the track. When driving at the limit of the car's capabilities on the highway, the acting forces are such that they can put even the most extreme car to the test. Even supercars of the caliber of McLaren, Lamborghini and Ferrari suffer from churning problems. Electronics, in fact, easily sends the car into "defense", forcing you to go through the game very quickly. So brakes and tires, no matter how efficient they are...
Lamborghini Aventador Roadster vs. Lamborghini Huracán - Sports car
Two supercars that make your heart beat faster and make you drive hard. Compared. What will be the best? In an increasingly hectic world, there are fewer and fewer moments when time seems to slow down as we are absorbed in everyday life that quickly slips away. For those who write, see the supercar parade it has always represented a small moment of escape from the incessant and fast flow and rhythms imposed by modern society. A few moments when it seems that time has almost stopped, a few moments of waiting - hoping to hear the magic sound of the engine as it passes. Parked right in front of me is one Lamborghini Aventador Roadster LP 700-4 and a Lamborghini Huracán LP 610-4. For the layman, these are about the two best…

La Bugatti Veyron is an exercise in amazing mechanics, a car that is difficult to think of and even more difficult to build, put into the hands of people who could not, especially from an economic point of view, carry out such an ambitious project, which, fortunately, was realized within the wing Volkswagen concern.

Sports cars - De Tomaso Guarà - Sports cars
Sports Cars - De Tomaso Guarà - Sports Cars It has been in production for almost a decade: Tomaso Guara is a supercar, daughter of the 90s. The manufacturer Modenese introduced it in 1993 as the successor to the De Tomaso Pantera, a sports car designed for competition. The Guarà was not built for this, but it remains a clean and sophisticated car. Its appearance is special: a long nose with hidden headlights resembles the nose of a car. Mazda Rx-7 while the rear, full of horizontal lines, has something of a Bugatti EB110. Live, it is even lower and "square" than it looks in the picture: with 4,2 meters long, 2 meters wide and only 1,2 meters high, Guara has a really pleasant presence. Inside…
Alfa Romeo, Renault, Subaru and Toyota: cheap heroines - Sports cars
THERE ARE MACHINES that seem to improve over the years, like fine wine. It's not technically obvious, but over time we realize that there was something pure about them, an old-school philosophy, an easy analogy that, in this increasingly technological and often aseptic age, we can only regret. And the beauty of these cars is that today they can often be taken home at prices that are certainly not a gift, but still affordable. Twenty years ago, without the Internet, it was more difficult: if you wanted a particular model, you had to hope to find it at your dealer or at a flea market after a long and careful search. However, now with one click you can find any car on ...
Lamborghini: all models in the price list - Sports cars
Lamborghini: all models in the price list - Sports cars Let's take a closer look at the models in the price list of the House of Sant'Agata Bolognese. Ferruccio Lamborghini I made his dream come true: to build a sports car with his own name. In the 50s, he only built tractors (Lamborghini tractors still exist today), but after buying one Ferrari - a 250 GT - frustrated, he decided to build sports cars. Since 1963, Lamborghini has produced dozens of great cars, iconic models like the Miura, Espada and Countach, as well as homologated racing cars like the Lamborghini Huracan Performante. Today the brand is owned by Audi, but cars are still made in Sant'Agata Bolognese. Let's look at the current models in the price list.

Ford Mustang Bullitt 5.0 V8 460 CV - Sports Car
Ford Mustang Bullitt 5.0 V8 460 CV - Sports Car We drove a special Mustang Bullitt on one of the most beautiful roads in Europe. La Ford Mustang has always been an icon of the sixties, a symbol of freedom, a little bit of life 'wild' and a little rebellious. It was also one of Hollywood's most iconic cars, the most famous of the divas: Lieutenant Bullitt's Mustang, played by the legendary Steve McQueen. Few people remember the movie, but no one has forgotten the ten-minute chase on the streets of the city. San Francisco, where McQueen aboard his '390 Mustang GT68 green "Dark Highland Green" is chasing Bill Hackman in his black Dodge Charger. Today I'm here to lead the 2018 Ford Mustang Bullitt, a remake of that fifty-year-old diva that's bound to be something...
Saleen S7 - Sports cars - Sports cars
Saleen S7 - Sports Cars - Sports Cars Bad, fast and aggressive: one of the most exotic American supercars ever built Saleen S7: a monster made in the USA that, in 2001, the year of its birth, scared its rivals in the FIA Championship GT, especially Porsche and Ferrari. Ma Steve Salin, a man who has worked with elaborate versions of the Ford Mustang for a long time, has created not only racing S7s, but also road models. The Saleen S7 (7 liters, like its monstrous V8) is what a supercar should be: two meters wide, one (or a little more) tall, the look of a serial killer and with plenty of air intakes that a colander would envy. It has the whole spirit of racing ...

Five cars are selected and the best in terms of appearance, performance, driving enjoyment and technology. But above all, they give Emozioni more. 5 - Ford Focus RS Fifth for the Blue Oval House's super-hatch: the new Ford Focus RS shocked everyone with its return to all-wheel drive, and what a load.

Audi, Ford, Mercedes, Renault and Volkswagen: the challenge is here - Sports cars
HOW HOT is a hot hatchback? EVO's yardstick - and I'm sure you agree with us - has always been about the overall driving experience, not the numbers. In practice, the smile they put on your face is more than tenths of a second you can bring to your knees. Which is not very popular with houses obsessed with numbers. But we remain of the opinion that as important as performance is, performance alone is not enough to create true cars for driving enthusiasts. Perhaps Volkswagen understood the hint, as it presented a new car. The Golf GTI is clearly less powerful than its competitors, although the Performance Package is an option that boosts power by 10 hp. (bringing the total to 230 hp), as well as including ...

Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio and Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio - Sports cars The blazing sun shines on the Venetian hills: I am in a great location, everything Byblos Art Hotel (Villa Amista), an art gallery, more than a hotel. I'm here for the first stop of Star Star, a culinary journey created by Alfa Romeo which this year includes six stages that take you through the most beautiful villas of the eighteenth century in the company of six-figure chefs. Nice day, no doubt, but I'm not just here to eat and learn about contemporary art: I'm here to drive. I have already tried the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio but not as much as I would like, although I have never tried the Stelvio, not even in the diesel version.…

BMW: sports cars on the price list, all models - Sports Cars M cars have always represented the best of BMW sportiness. Let's take a look at the most popular Bavarian models together. BMW is not only a luxury brand, but also one with roots in motorsport. Many BMW sports models have become real icons, coveted by collectors.

Porsche 911 GT3 RS 4.0 - Sports Car
Let's not go too far: the GT3 RS 4.0 is so much better than the 3.8, which in itself is one of the best cars I've ever driven and the winner of the last Ecoty, beating a Ferrari 458, a Lexus LFA and even a Porsche GT2 RS . Sounds incredible, but this version is even better. It's faster, it has more drive, and it gnaws on asphalt with more grain. And that's not all: she's more insightful in her reactions and takes feelings and engagement to another level. This is the absolute best road avatar of the Porsche 911. È l'ultima 997 GT3 and will only be built 7 a day until the end of 2011. Although, of course, in the future there will be ...
