In the earlier half of this decade, the Mercedes-Benz S 55 AMG was content with an overpowering 5.5-litre supercharged V8. Then the German firm decided to replace that with a 6.21-litre naturally-aspirated V8, fitting the motor in, [...]  There was a time when BMW said they refuse to make an M version of the 7-Series because it would be too far away from the concept of the ‘M’ cars. They still believe that, so there is no M7. And then they went ahead and created the BMW X5 M. While the death of [...]  AC Schnitzer, the German tuning firm specialising in BMW models for decades now, debuted their ’styling’ package for the BMW X6 M at the Automodex tuner show in Dubai. This came alongside news that AC Schnitzer packages will be offered with full warranties through BMW’s Dubai dealership.  The Porsche 918 Spyder is not only going to be super fast, but also super fuel-efficient as it will be a hybrid. Already electric versions of the 911 GT3 R Hybrid and the 2011 Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid being released, the 918 Spyder will also follow Porsche’s new trend of building fast cars while keeping [...]  The CLR X 650 M is LUMMA Design’s latest creation. Sporting an upgraded engine and some aggressive styling, this modified beamer looks simply awesome.  Audi has just revealed the 2011 Audi RS5 model. The coupe, based on the Audi A5, packs a powerful V8 4.2-litre engine with an all-wheel drive system.  Details of the 2011 Peugeot 508, which will be the replacement for the 407 and 607 models, have been revealed. Featuring a big grill and rounded curves all over, it looks pretty good in these initial pictures. The engine details have only been released for the hybrid model.  The 2011 Porsche Cayenne has been revealed. Always popular in this region, the new Porsche Cayenne is certain to turn heads. Power and fuel efficiency has improved in all the models.  Volkswagen has revealed the Volkswagen CrossPolo 2010 for the compact class market. Originally designed to be a special edition model for the Polo Fun, the CrossPolo is now being released as a full production model.  Mercedes-Benz recently showed off its new F800 at the Geneva Auto Show. The bold, futuristically designed Mercedes-Benz F800 is said to be the next CLS.

German tuners VATH Automobiltechnik has released a V50S package for the E-500 engine which turns up the horsepower from 388 hp to 435 hp. Visual upgrades are available as well on the Mercedes Benz E Class Coupe.  So we finally get our hands on the all-new BMW Z4, if only because we now have friends within BMW. We suspect our tester, with 12000 km on the clock already, is really a 2009 rental model, but for the purposes of this preview we’ll refer to it as a 2010, to avoid appearing outdated. [...]  AC Schnitzer has decided to tune up the BMW X1 with some added power and visual upgrades. They have just released the upgrade only on the diesel engine at the moment, but will be released soon for the petrol version as well.  The new Bentley Continental Superports Convertible 2011 has been revealed. It claims to be the fastest four-seat convertible in the world.

The Supersports Convertible, with its all-wheel drive system and improved transmission, reaches 100km/h in just 4.2 seconds and has [...]  The UK-built 2010 Honda Civic Type R MUGEN 200 limited edition model has been launched. As the name suggests, only 200 will be built and sold in the UK. Bagging the same 201 hp 2.0-litre i-VTEC engine, this model is just mostly cosmetic changes on the standard Type R model.  We just love Range Rovers. And Project Kahn has made us more happy with their latest Range Rover project, the Project Kahn Range Rover Sport RS600.  Taking a cue from the Mini Cooper and the Fiat 500, Audi has launched the A1 premium supermini, only without the uniqueness and the history that make the other two legendary. Renault’s truck division held a press day recently, where they showed off the off-road prowess of the new Renault Sherpa 4×4, a civilian version of the military-grade truck, in a desert safari ride-along.
