Aston to Geneva
With the Geneva Auto Show coming up I’m very surprised by Aston Martin pushing another tuned/track version of its Vantage line. Out of all the current Aston’s I’ve always loved the Vantage; especially when they coupled it with the V12 from the DB9.
This new version will be called the GT3 and will mimic their Gran Touring cars. It looks as though it will be street legal and might “compete” with Porsches famed track ready superstar the…..GT3….. Even though I’m not too sure on the design, mostly on the choice of the rear spoiler, I’m glad this Aston is still being reworked in multiple ways…..hopefully they will keep the manual transmission in the Vantage line up too.
AUDI TT vs AUDI TT (GT6)
The TT is a car that I never though I would ever buy or even consider choosing in a video game. However the updated look has really grown on me especially when tuners get a hold of them. So here we have two TT models: 1.) 07′ 3.2L V6 Quattro TT (dark blue), 2) 09′ 2.0L I4 Turbo Quattro TTS (silver). I ran them at Le Mans, where the V6 beat the TTS by ~2 seconds based on a best out of 3 laps. Time for the V6 was 3:38.87 vs the TTS 3:40.43.

The Rising Sun’s Purist Machines….following Euro Trends!?
WHy the SOFT TOP BRO!?
The largest North American Auto Show is happening this weekend, compiling new models that were released at the International Auto Show in Detroit to brand new concepts that are being conjured up.
One concept that hasn’t caught me by surprise is Nissans 370z Nismo model. Last year it got a revision around the same time as the Nissan GTR with its first ever automatic option. Now they released a new “concept” of a convertible version focused with the automatic transmission. Anyways, I saw this coming a mile away as its a current trend with Euro models to make as many derivatives of their cars; just look at the M4 and M6 line up.
The shift in Nissans executive structure might have an influence in the international decisions of their line ups, but I’m very surprised that this was even an option. I believe the Z replacement is long overdue and Nissan is trying to see what consumers would like in the next Z. Especially since the base 370z looked too dull until the Nismo edition came out.
May this be the case, the Nismo 370z is supposed to be a “track ready car”, I think Nismo and Nissan can do better to make it more competitive with other models such as the upcoming M2, Subaru STI, and dare I say Porsche Cayman S. Whats stopping me from spending an extra 5-25k for some of these other models, besides reliability.
Its supposed to be track focused, so why don’t they refine and shape the vehicle on what truly makes a great track/enthusiast car. Give it a significant diet, add more power and torque, and more custom options. Japanese auto makers have always made great manual gearboxes and I hope Nissan continues to do so. The sad news is that this car is a cost savings sports car, it shares so many parts with other Nissan line ups (Q50/G37) that a significant change to the Nismo edition could add costs in manufacturing, which isn’t a “profitable” move.
Anyways I might also be biased, but I really think Nissan can get this right. With the upcoming Z most likely being a turbo I4, it will have to work even harder against its current competition and others that have been working that market for quite a while now.

Love this SLR, it was and still is a ridiculous machine!
Exclusive, Crazii Colours for Performance cars.
These colors are exclusive to the Top of the line models or specific to only one model in the whole line up.
1. 2015 RS5: Sepang Blue and Panther Black. The Panther Black is more expensive costing ~$1075.00 (90k+ shillings) vs $550 for SEEEPPAANNNGG! I like the Sepang better, the Black looks like the GTR V-spec pearl color
2. 2015 M3/M4: Sakhir Orange, Yas Marina Blue, Austin Yellow.
3. SRT Viper GTC: 1 of 1. In order for the Viper to remain relevant it needs to keep itself in the spotlight. Besides dropping a few $$ on the Viper a new custom workshop, just like Bugatti Veyron’s go through will be available to public pockets in the coming months. This is quite interesting.

Ford GT Looking Dope
Well the GTR won’t be the only twin-turbo monster on the road. Detroit came out with a bang and most of you have seen the NSX, whose release was quickly overshadowed by the Ford GT’s release at the same time.
