  • G-Power BMW G1 V8 Hurricane RS – 314 km/h [video]

    The mighty BMW 1-Series tuned from G-Power boasts 600HP and 580Nm of torque.

    The power comes from a V8 4.0-liter supercharged engine. This is enough for reaching a top speed of over 330 km/h (205 mph) and staggering acceleration. 0-100 km/h in just 4.4 seconds. However, the test driver Christian Gebhardt from sportauto.de managed to it “just” 314 km/h (195 mph), because he drove a prototype with a top speed limiter in the ECU.

    Besides the engine swap, the G1 V8 comes with a set of huge 20” alloy wheels, stainless sports exhaust system, a full coilover suspension and some weight reduction thanks to a carbon fiber hood and a trunk lid.

    The car also has brutal carbon ceramic brakes in order to handle all that power coming from the engine.
