Video: Hennessey’s 755 Horsepower Corvette ZR750

Out of the box, the $110,000 ZR1 Corvette gives you some pretty incredible stats, like 638 horsepower, 604 ft-lb of torque, a zero to sixty time of around 3.5 seconds and a top speed somewhere north of 200 miles per hour. Just a few years back, those numbers were reserved for cars with a prancing horse or a charging bull on their logos, with the accompanying increase in price. The Corvette ZR1 really does bring near-supercar performance to a broader audience (although $110k isn’t exactly blue collar), but that’s simply not good enough for some buyers. It’s one thing to show taillights to a Ferrari F430; it’s something else entirely to go toe to toe with your ZR1 against a Ferrari Enzo. Want to see a ZR1 capable of taking on Italy’s best?

MTM Tuned R8 Biturbo: Dark Glasses Not Included

Don’t even think about buying this one-off, uber-tuned R8 from MTM unless you own some serious sunglasses. In fact, welders goggles wouldn’t be out of the question, especially on sunny days. The exterior, you see, was stripped of paint before the bare aluminum was polished to a mirror-like sheen, a process that took some 700 hours to complete. Put that into perspective for a second: if you were working at home in your garage, killing two hours of spare time per day, that finish would take you nearly a year to duplicate (at which time you’d probably have to start all over again to remove the oxidation). As cool as it is, that’s not what the MTM R8 Biturbo is really about. Read more

The TT That Could: AVUS Tuned Audi TT-RS Good for 460hp & 194mph

A new tuning package from Avus Performance has been released for the Audi TT-RS. If you want a ridiculously fast TT-RS, then Avus Performance is your answer.

The new Avus Performance tuning package for the Audi TT-RS adds a new ECU, different turbocharger, and high performance exhaust system with racing cats. The question you are asking is; that’s it? Yes, that pretty much all they add in the power department but together it is able to take the 2.5-liter 5-cylindar engine to a 460hp and 472 lb-ft high. That is good enough to propel the TT-RS to 60 mph from a standstill in 3.8 seconds and top out at 194 mph. That’s 120hp more than the 340hp stock form that tops out at 155mph and does 0-60 in 4.6 seconds.

550hp V-10 Powered Manhart BMW Z4 Revealed

Already, the Z4 M is not slouch sharing the S54 engine from the BMW M3 producing about 343hp.
