Hamman have taken the sexy Lamborghini LP 560-4 and turned into a very sexy beast. Hamman aren’t known for major engine tuning but they know how to make a good looking car look even better. I’m a fan of the LP 560-4 and they have made it look even better, with that mean looking body kit. They gave it their signature door opening mechanism and beefy looking fenders. The combination of the matt black and red carbon fiber is one mean looking machine, I would love to have this in my drive way. But as usual I’m assuming this kit is probably on the expensive side.

Recently at a hobby store in the UK I saw some extremely high quality cars models in a unique store in Soho. What shocked me was the size and the detail of these beautiful machines, some of them are about 40 cm long and some are about 70 cm long. But it seems they are as expensive as a small car, the models ranging from 1000 to 3000 KD which is insane but that what you have to pay for fine craftsmanship.

For the first time my eyes feast on a machine such as this, born from pure precision and art. I knew this was going to be a beautiful machine but I wasn’t expecting it to be this beautiful. The lines on the MP4-12C just flow perfectly and the doors open smoothly, there are no key holes or handles, only a sensor just under the door panel that senses your hand and opens up. The interior of the car is extremely comfortable for a race bred machine, and the all digital instrument panel looked amazing. I didn’t have a chance to start up the car but it felt very comfortable sitting inside.
The car will be selling in Kuwait starting at 62’000 KD up to 85’000 KD depending on the options, and it has a lot of options. The silver one looked amazing, I’m assuming the other colors look just as good. Only 1000 of them will be made and 16 have been allotted to Kuwait and half already sold before this show, I’m assuming all will be sold in the coming weeks. Delivery is expected to take place any time between June and August of 2011 for the lucky owners. Its a beautiful and unique machine, McLaren have perfected the formula of the supercar.
For your viewing pleasure the most powerful Porsche ever built. That is one very scary machine, 620 bhp pure power, and the RS version of the GT2 is just a shocking combination. They make it look so easy to drift this car around corners when I know it takes extreme precision and control, I have seen how easily the GT2 spins out.
Offroading is a pasttime that many men love in Kuwait and the Middle East, many destinations to visit and offroad in. And there is always a time during that trip that someone gets stuck, I have gotten stuck a few times myself. I always carry a good amount of tools to get me out of the whole I’m in, but usually you need another car with you to help you out. A little more traction and a little more lift is sometimes what you need to get out of a very stuck situation. The LiftTrax Off-Road Recovery Device offers both in a rollable, portable, inflatable package. These ultrarugged air mats feature a flexible outer shell covered in rubber grips which offer traction in nearly any condition to vehicles weighing up to 8,800 lbs. Australians really know what they are doing when it comes to offroading, their equipment quality is really high because they have the same desert climate as we do. I’m hoping to have this for my next off-roading trip.

I think someone got the genius idea over at Car & Driver to do burn outs and donuts in the SLS with the doors open. That car’s exhaust sounds amazing, and they really smoke out those tires. The funny part is you hear the clicking noise of the car once he is done with the donuts, you know something needs to be fixed but its worth it for all that fun.

I want to win one of those machines! I have seen the Polaris and its a ton of fun in the sand!
If this doesn’t get your blood boiling, I don’t know what will! This is the definition of hot pursuit, Electronic Arts have taken to beautiful machines for a rea live Hot Pursuit, the live action version of Need for Speed Hot Pursuit. Whoever is driving that Pagani Zonda has skill, he is drifting around corners in the mountain I would be freaked out in a VW Beetle.

Marc Cameron and Mark Brown have a talent with cameras and lights. Over the years I have seen people make funny objects from light photography and some very skilled pictures, but these guys took it to another level. With lots of very enticing vehicles like the Ariel Atom, Ferrari 458 Italia, McLaren MP4-12C, and even the VW Scirocco. With enhanced light, clean lines, and elite motors they have come up with some amazing images. I wish I had the skills to even come up with images such as these but it takes time to perfect it, but if you wanted any of these images on your wall they are available for sale if you click the link below. car images?

Nothing says London like the Double Decker buses and the black cabs, for some reason these buses and cabs only feel right in London and no where else. The taxis have gotten updates over the years and now finally they have come up with a new design which is supposed to come into the streets of London by 2012, a few at a time I think. The worst bus they ever made for London were those long extended ones, with a rubber piece in the middle, those long buses cause a lot of traffic and more annoying then they were useful. Back in 2005 they got a few of those and said they were the future of buses but thankfully they came to their senses and realized that those extended buses only cause more traffic. Now these buses got the facelift they needed and hopefully the technology as well. And the wacky guy in the suit standing in some of the pictures is the Mayor of London.
