  • Lamborghini Aventador, 458 Italia and LaFerrari Share Something in Common

    Lamborghini Aventador in Carbon SkinLamborghini Aventador, Ferrari 458 Italia and Ferrari LaFerrari are all Italian-made cars. But this is not the single thing they share in common. If you take a detailed look at our picture gallery below, you will be amazed to find that all three have been made entirely from carbon fibre. How many of you have imagined these in a carbon skin? At least I did, and the experts responsible for these modifications are those at the so called “boutique carbon fibre atelier” Vitesse | AuDessus.

    Lamborghini Aventador, 458 Italia and LaFerrari share something in common and it is not the Italian origin.

    If you wonder about the meaning of the French words, they stand for “superior speed”. And we are not expecting less, when it comes to the trio especially when it is dressed in pure carbon.

    The company specializes in making one-off automotive pieces, and what is more important here is that it is launching its services worldwide, which means that you now have the opportunity of owning such a superhero.

    Ferrari 458 Italia has an exterior entirely made of carbon fibre.

    As you can see from the images below, the hand-crafted lightweight material has been extensively used. What we can’t see is that it has been also utilized for the interior, many hidden components and the monocoques.

    In fact, Vitesse | AuDessus has already worked on creating full carbon fibre bodies for vehicles like the Veyron, McLaren P1 and Porsche 918. However, the trio here literally takes my mind, and I didn’t expect that it is possible to make carbon fibre look so … diverse.

    Ferrari LaFerrari in Carbon Fibre Skin

    While on the Aventador the material looks more like a foil-wrapping (but it is not), on the LaFerrari and 458 Italia it looks like something innate. The question here is how fast will these Italian supercars accelerate and will they keep their aerodynamic stability. After all, carbon is famous for its use in weight optimization.

    No details regarding these concerns were disclosed by Vitesse | AuDessus. But if you are still interested in ordering such a bespoke exterior, expect to be charged at least $200 000 USD. After all luxury and individuality have its price.

  • Ferrari LaFerrari XX Prototype at the Monza Race Track

    Here is an awesome video published by NM2255 on Youtube featuring the highly-anticipated Ferrari LaFerrari XX. The hyper-car has been filmed during a test drive on the famous Monza circuit. The model will be limited to just 30 units with pricing starting from somewhere around €2,000,000.

    The LaFerrari XX sounds just brilliant and goes extremely fast around the race track. Still, after a few laps, typically for a Ferrari something went wrong and that caused one of the rear tires to go in other direction.

    Still, there is no information for the XX model, but it will come with improved aerodynamics, upgraded electronics, a sportier suspension and racing tires. The car will be track-only toy and a very expensive one.

    As a reminder, the “normal” 2013 Ferrari LaFerrari is powered by a 6.3 liter V12 with 800HP (588 kW) at 9,250RPM an 700Nm (519 lb-ft) at 6,750RPM. With the help of HY-KERS, the overall power is whopping 963HP and over 900Nm of torque. 0-100 km/h in under 3 seconds, 0-200 km/h in 7 seconds and 0-300 in breath-taking 15 seconds. A lap around Fiorano race circuit takes just 1 minute and 20 seconds – 5 seconds faster than the Enzo and over 3 seconds faster than the F12berlinetta. The XX model is expected to be a lot faster.

    Recently, a tuning company called JMB boosted LaFerrari to 1050HP thanks to an ECU re-map, so we expect the new XX to be at least that powerful.

    Enjoy the impressive sound!
