Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale



As we told you about our previous post, Gran Turismo MC Road is genuine, a sportier version of the big Maser sedan (think the GT3, but the Maserati). According to Italian sport / luxury car manufacturer, the MC Road did not move an inch when it came to include the performance in return, it runs better without losing ride quality (which has not yet been tested), is more efficient without sacrificing fuel economy, and the same plants more difficult without increasing resistance.

Under the hood is derived from the Ferrari 4.7-liter V8 that develops 450 horsepower and 510 Nm / 376 lb ft of torque. GT Racer was also put on a diet, shedding 110 pounds of process (which now weighs 1770 kg and maintains its 48/52 weight distribution).

According to the Italians, the MC Stradale is the normal production in the first place, the road continues to break the Maserati 300 kmh [186 mph] barrier.

Routes power car with an "electro-enabled" transmission that changes in a period of 60 milliseconds lean launched optimally, if the vehicle up to 100 km / h (62 mph) in 4.6 second.

Inside, the car gets a layout "simplified" dash, losing the rear seats, and collects some of the dry race (and an optional roll-bars and 4 points of attack). It is also not a "machine" and "Sport" mode, not all for the first time how "race" are on the road going Maserati.

Back outside, there are many new weight loss little add-ons to performance, and just looks good. All new parts are included in the external changes are: bumper of a new front splitter, front and rear protection panels front, side panels, hood and exhaust tips.

As long as you do not live in the United States, Canada or Korea, you may be one place on the road after it goes on sale next February.

IAA 2011: Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Super Trofeo Stradale in the Flesh



We were hoping to see a replacement for the Gallardo supercar in Frankfurt but instead, Lamborghini showed us yet another limited edition version of its entry-level model.

Billed as the most extreme Gallardo ever, the new LP 570-4 Super Trofeo is loosely based on the race car from the Lamborghini Blancpain Super Trofeo and will be produced in a limited run of 150 units.

The Gallardo LP 570-4 Super Trofeo Stradale has undergone a diet and lost 70kg (154 lbs) over the standard model tipping the scales at 1340kg (2,954 pounds).

Power comes from the same V10 powerplant found in the Superleggera as well as the Blancpain Super Trofeo racer, developing 570-horsepower at 8,000 rpm and 540Nm at 6,500 rpm (398.2 lb-ft). A robotized e-gear six-speed transmission controlled by steering wheel paddles transfers power to all four wheels.

It sprints from 0 to 100 km/h (62mph) in 3.4 seconds and reaches 200 km/h (124mph) 10.4 seconds later while it finally tops out at 320 Km/h (199mph).

On the outside, the Super Trofeo Stradale sports a contrasting matte black finish on certain details such as the front spoiler and rear wing while it rides on ultra-lightweight 19-inch wheels that save some 13kg (29 pounds).

The rocker panel covers, rear diffuser and outside mirror housings are made of carbon fiber polished to a high gloss, while the brake calipers are accented in red, first for Lamborghini.

The two-tone theme continues in the cabin that is dressed in Alcantara and carbon fiber trims.

Lamborghini also offers an extensive list of options that will satisfy both the hardcore aficionados with carbon-fiber ceramic brake discs, a tubular interior roll cage, 4-point safety belts and fire extinguisher, as well as the casual buyer with a satellite navigation, with Bluetooth connection for mobile phones, an anti-theft system, and a lifting system that raises the front axle.
