DONOTCHANGE
A McLaren Mercedes SLR chromed was photographed in Dubai.The owner of this supercar felt the need to be more special than the other supercar owners in the area.Even if this looks like it is covered with chrome,it actually is painted with a special ink that looks like chrome.
It is called The FantaChrome paint and it costs a lot less than actually covering the car with chrome.Almost any matherial can be covered with this kind of paint and can have different colors like gold,chrome,silver,green,blue, bronze and a lot of other colors.

DONOTCHANGE
Opel Insignia, the one that took the place of Vectra, raised a special interest since it was launched this summer. The new design pattern adopted by Opel attracted more and more tuning houses that want to create something impressive.
The fist step was made by Irmscher,the fist tuning company that created a bodykit for the American Opel.The fist tuning package for Insignia includes a new front bumper with stainless steel insertions,a redone rear bumper with 4 cromed exhauts, side skirts and an aileron mounted on the trunk.
The package is completed by a pair of 20″ alloy wheels.

As a truck i bet you`ve thought about Hybrid Trucks,that would help you lower the effects of the global warming and lower the fuel cost, or even just at the benefits of these trucks.Also i know you`ve thought at tuning your truck because at a big load an extra power would be very welcome.
As a solution to these problems we recommend using the guys at Küberl Tuning GmbH.Using their gadgets you increase the power of your truck with 15-25% and reduce the fuel use with 5-15%.Truck tuning is being used more and more by individual drivers that admit they made a great investment with Küberl Tuning GmbH
Reducing the fuel your truck uses also depends on the driver.By the increase of the engine`s power and also the torque you can obtain a reduction of fuel of 3l/100km,but only on a normal driving style.These reduction is owed to the fact that the vehicle will be stronger,when going upwards you woun`t have to change to an inferior gear and generaly the truck will run easyer.Truck Maintenance is very important here because if you don`t take care of it you woun`t notice the difference.
If the driver uses the gears to the maximum and doesn`t reduce the number of gear shifts,the consuption of fuel can`t be reduced also.

DONOTCHANGE
Mercedes CLK 63 AMG Black Series wasn`t strong enough for the guys at Vorsteiner, that redid the whole thing,from the exterior design to the performances.This is one of thoes Exotic Cars that neded to be remodeled.After all this, the tuners called it Black Widow.
The engineers at Vorsteiner created a carbon fiber front bumper and an aileron placed on the top of the trunk with a more aggressive design.The combination of these elements raised dramatically the streamline of the car,making it more stable at speeds like 300km/h.The interior isn`t floded with a lot of Car Gadgets and has just what exotic cars need.
The mechanical part will also be improved by the guys at Vornsteiner .The only improvements brought to the car by now are a reprogramed ECU and sport catalizators that complete the evacuation galery.
This car couldn`t have been better even if this would have been done by a virtual tuning expert. (more…)

Making its world debut at the 2008 Paris Motor Cars Show, the new IS 250C combines the sporting elegance of the IS sedan with superlative engineering ingenuity to create a unique fusion of top-down driving pleasure and uncompromised closed-top dynamic performance in the premium sedan segment. Its lightweight, aluminum
folding roof structure boasts the fastest three-part roof opening time of just 20 seconds. Through the remarkably compact packaging of its roof mechanism, the IS 250C offers a large boot space, generous rear seat access, spacious rear passenger accommodation and sport wheels and tires. Sharing the IS 250’s 153kW/208DIN hp, 2.5 litre ultra-smooth V6 power plant and 6-speed automatic transmission, the new Lexus convertible has been styled to offer minimal wind turbulence when driving with the hard top stowed. The enhanced torsional stiffness of the IS 250C design promotes ride comfort appropriate to the marquee
and, in coupe configuration, reduced noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) characteristics on a par with those of the IS sedan.
