Starting with the front, it features in-house made front spoiler attached to the standard production bumper. It comes along with two carbon panels, which give the side air intakes more powerful and sportier profile. In addition, these elements not only serve as a beauty extra, but also reduce the lift on the front axle at high speeds, thus optimizing handling stability.

At the back, the first thing that grabs the eye is the striking highlights as well as the new carbon diffuser. Just like the Flying Spur, the Continental also got LED module integrated into the center of the diffuser, which serves as a rear fog lamp and a backup light at the same time.

A very impressive addition to the exterior is the new stainless-steel sport exhaust system, which has billet tailpipes. It also has integrated system of butterfly valves that can be controlled from the cockpit, thus creating the wished sound effect.

Wheels & Tires

STARTECH Debuts Two Bentley Projects in Frankfurt Starting with the Flying Spur

STARTECH Bentley Flying Spur Front View STARTECH is displaying at the Frankfurt Motor Show tomorrow not one but two Bentley models. The first one is the Flying Spur, which will be reviewed right now, and the other one… we’ll you have to wait until the next article to know which is it. Unlike, the previously reviewed BRABUS, this car only features an extensive tuning for its exterior and interior. But there is a promise that STARTECH tuners will also offer professional performance upgrades for the V8 and W12 engines in the near future.

Exterior

First we will discuss what happened to the exterior of the Flying Spur, starting with its front. There is a front spoiler, which has been attached to the underside of the production bumper. The effect it makes is that it gives the car a sporty facelift. In addition, it has a sophisticated shape, which reduces the aerodynamic lift on the front axle.

Next, the tuners integrated fiber-optic daytime running lights that match the appearance of the spoiler lip with the swept-up flaps. The wide air intake in the front bumper is emphasized via two additional panels.

STARTECH Bentley Flying Spur Rear View

Continuing to the rear, the Flying Spur now has even more dynamic appearance, due to the addition of new diffuser into the rear bumper. There is also a very special feature: the innovative LED module which combines backup lights and rear fog lamp in one module. It also has new design, which is reminiscent of the tail lamp of a modern-day Formula 1 racecar. In addition, there are special panels to the left and right of the diffuser, which frame the four new tailpipes and blend them perfectly with the rear profile.

A STARTECH sports exhaust system is available for this Bentley. The ‘thing’ about it is that it features electronically controlled system of butterfly valves that allow the driver to control the exhaust note.

Wheels & Tires

To make the visual stance of the Bentley even more impressive, STARTECH had to chose the perfect wheels. So they decided to use the Monostar G forged alloys in size of 22-inches. High-performance tires of size 295/30 ZR 22 front and back perfectly fill out the wheel wells.

Interior

Stepping inside of the car, one sees STARTECH special treatment for this Bentley. As you can see, the interior designers selected an unusual combination of light brown and white leather. This bi-color theme was accentuated via light blue highlights. The work inside also features leather inserts on the seats, door panels and headliner. At last, inside, there is also a custom made wood from white cherry wood.

BRABUS Announces Mercedes-Benz G 500 4×4² Project for Frankfurt

BRABUS Mercedes-Benz G 500 4x4² Front View BRABUS Mercedes-Benz G 500 4×4² is going to be revealed tomorrow at the Frankfurt Motor Show. It will be shown at BRABUS stand next to the recently announced custom Mercedes-AMG GT S. Just like the AMG GT S, the G 500 features similar improvements: power uprating and various improvements to the exterior and interior. Let’s see what has happened here.

Engine Uprating via BRABUS B40 – 500 PowerXtra Performance Kit

Mercedes G 500 4×4² is typically driven by the four-liter eight-cylinder twin-turbo engine. Without any modifications it produces 422 hp (310 kW) and 610 Nm (450 lb-ft) of optimum torque. The tuners decided to apply the BRABUS B40 – 500 PowerXtra performance kit onto the powerful V8, thus giving it an addition of 78 hp (58 kW) and 100 Nm (74 lb-ft).

The result is spectacular, and before you calculate it yourself, I will tell you that it is 500 hp (368 kW) at 5,600 rpm and 710 Nm (523 lb-ft) of torque available between 2,250 and 4,250 rpm. Another great result of this tuning is that the performance optimization also gives the Mercedes the capabilities to sprint from rest to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 6.9 seconds. The top speed of the SUV is limited electronically to 210 km/h (130 mph).

Powerful BRABUS-Inspired Exterior

The additional horsepower and torque demand the use of better exhaust. For this purpose, BRABUS installed their stainless-steel sports exhaust system with actively controlled butterfly valves, which control the level of the sound. In addition, the exhaust also features dual chrome tailpipes on each side of the vehicle, thus creating imposing stance. At the rear we also see a brand new bumper as well as mirror-polished underride guard.

The front looks as sophisticated as the rear. There we see new bumper panels on the left and right as well as a mirror-polished underride guard. There is an additional panel under the special radiator grille with integrated BRABUS logo. By the way, the hood scoop, the new radiator grille and headlamp surrounds are all made from carbon fiber.

Furthermore, the front bumper panels include LED lights with chrome surrounds, while the black-tinted BRABUS xenon headlamps and daytime running lights with integrated turn signal function are even more dominating features. Carbon fit covers replace the production turn signals on top of the fenders.

At last, the sides have been upgraded via underfloor lighting for the running boards. They are activated by pulling on a door handle or by operating the keyless-entry remote.

Interior Highlights

The interior was also included in the plans for optimization. BRABUS Mercedes G 500 4×4² features an upholstery made of the finest black Mastik leather with arrow-shaped quilting. The red seams add an intriguing contrast. Alcantara is also to be found in the cabin, precisely on the headliner plus other components in the interior.

The carbon inlays adds even more striking highlight, while the stainless-steel scuff plates with backlit BRABUS logo welcome the passengers. And if someone finds that getting out or in the vehicle difficult, then BRABUS have created special power-retractable steps. At last, the tuning of the cabin is rounded out by the aluminum pedals and door pins.

There will be only 20 of the vehicles and will be launched during Goodwood Revival festival ahead of the 20th anniversary of the original Superlight in 1996.

As you might know, the original Superlight’s production run ceased back in 2004, but it also heralded a new era of track-based Sevens created to offer even better performance stats and low weight. All this combined with an incredible price. Furthermore, the vehicle went to become one of Caterham’s most coveted models, selling about 200 examples while still in production.

The vehicle now offers 135 hp (99 kW) of power, delivered from 1.6-liter Ford Sigma engine, paired to a 6-speed close ratio transmission. There is also a special Sport suspension pack which adds lightweight flywheel and limited slip differential. How cool is that?

2016 Caterham Seven Superlight Limited

The exterior style benefits from numerous carbon-fiber components, including the cycle wings, rear wings, nose and minimalist aero screen. And just like the original Superlight, the body finish is in bare aluminum. The vehicle also gets a special numbered dash plaque, unique gauges, titanium colored chassis, carbon interior panels and especially embroidered carbon sports seats. The same as for the Caterham’s flagship model.

And surely this is one of the fastest, if not the fastest Seven produced to date. The vehicle goes from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 4.9 seconds and has a top speed of 219 km/h (122 mph).

There are also some visual enhancements to the Limited model which include a kind of more aggressive-looking front bumper and a 3-bar grille, fresh 17-inch alloy wheels and woodgrain pattern interior trim. Cool, right? But this is not all. The vehicle will also reduce unsprung weight and improve handling with additional aluminum components instead of steel ones. And the steering knuckle and the lower control arm and the assist arm are also aluminum.

And with the nice weight reduction, the 2016 Hyundai Sonata will continue the well-known drivetrain affair. The model is geared with the 2.4-liter Theta II GDI unit with a total output of 185 hp (136 kW) and 178 lb.ft. of torque for the SE, Limited and Sport models. On the other hand, there is a 2.0-liter Theta II turbocharged GDI and Limited 2.0T units that produce 245 hp (180 kW) and 260 lb. ft. of torque. And there are also some minor changes for the 2016 models. For example, the smaller turbine and compressor wheel. This slight change contributes to better responsiveness and more torque in the low RPM range. Both the engines are paired to a six-speed SHIFTRONIC automatic gearbox.

And the standard equipment includes remote keyless entry, body color heated exterior power mirrors, LED Daytime Running Lights, Cruise Control and a special Bluetooth hands-free phone system.

BRABUS Releases a Classy Styling and Performance Update for Mercedes-AMG GT S

BRABUS Mercedes-AMG GT S Side View BRABUS Mercedes-AMG GT S is a very special car, which we will see debuting at the Frankfurt Motor Show. The experts have changed the sports-car thoroughly and have included a significant boost for the AMG engine, some exterior tweaks and more cozy and luxury imbibed cabin.

Generally the custom BRABUS vehicles are more likely to be ‘over-tuned’ and with very rugged and pompous styling. This isn’t the case with this Mercedes-AMG GT S. The exterior of the sports car has been moderately modified and the sense of style and classiness has been kept. Follow my thoughts and you’ll know why.

Reasonable Engine Boost?

BRABUS Mercedes-AMG GT S Engine

The AMG GT S has its capabilities when it comes to performance. So the question here is whether an engine boost is necessary. There will be always opinions on both positions, but BRABUS experts have been obviously chosen the side where one could never have enough power… especially when it comes to a sports car.

This is the reason they have developed the PowerXtra B40 – 600 performance kit. By the way this optimization comes only for the eight-cylinder twin-turbo engine of the GT S. As a result, it gives the enfine an additional 90 hp (66 kW) and 100 Nm (74 lb-ft) of torque.

In other words, after the upgrade, the GT S is capable of putting out 600 hp (441 kW) at 6,400 rpm and 750 Nm (553 lb-ft) at 4,800 rpm. The acceleration time has been rated 3.6 seconds for the 0-100 km/h sprint, while the top speed has been unleashed from 310 to 325 km/h (190 to 201 mph).

Classiness for the Exterior

BRABUS Mercedes-AMG GT S Rear and Side View

BRABUS quad sports exhaust made from lightweight titanium with four tailpipes made from a combination of titanium and carbon is the perfect compliment for the engine tuning. The special thing about this exhaust is that it has been fitted with electronically controlled butterfly valves operated from the cockpit, thus giving the driver the choice of selecting the level of sound he or she is creating.

Carbon fiber, usually used in the Formula 1 racing, has been chosen for all bodywork components. Starting with the front, we see a front bumper which has been visually upgraded with BRABUS front spoiler. In addition, two covers for the side air intakes of the bumper lend the two-seater even more striking face. They also optimize the routing of cooling air. Integrated LED side markers optimize active safety.

At the sides, the experts added new air outlets for the front fenders, BRABUS logotypes and rocker panels. They lend the car lower and sleeker visual stance and also optimize the airflow between the front and rear wheel arches.

Going to the rear, we can’t argue that it isn’t athletic. The in-house made rear airfoil and diffuser with tailor-made cutouts for the four tailpipes of the exhaust system, contribute to optimized handling stability at high speeds.

Furthermore, BRABUS Mercedes-AMG GT S rides on custom wheels with 20-inches of size on the front axle and 21-inches – on the rear. The alloys are called Monoblock F “PLATINUM EDITION” and come coupled with tires of sizes 275/30 ZR 20 and 305/25 ZR 21 for the front and rear, respectively. At last, the new ‘shoes’ of the car demanded new sports springs that has been specifically tailored to the low profile tires. They lower the ride height of the GT S by about 15 millimeters.

BRABUS for the Interior

BRABUS Mercedes-AMG GT S Interior

Inside we see a BRABUS interior with exclusive accessories like the carbon scuff plates with stainless-steel inserts and a backlit BRABUS logo as well as chrome-plated aluminum pedals and aluminum paddle shifters in more ergonomic position on the steering wheel. The seats got premium fine leather upholstery, while the inlays were made from real carbon. There is also a wood upgrade the cockpit of the two-door car.

In conclusion, I must say that while I haven’t seen such a stylish upgrade by BRABUS. Well done guys!
