V8-powered
BMW Z4 hardtop
As
reported before, the next Z4 will feature a retractable hard top,
but a cloth roof will continue to be offered on entry-level models.
Motivation will come in several different flavors, beginning with
naturally aspirated four- and six-cylinder powerplants. A diesel
is also being considered – a first for the Z4 – and there's no
doubt that the 3-series-based roadster will come packing the twin-turbocharged,
3.0-liter inline six that's proliferated throughout BMW's lineup.

inline-5 pumping out 350 horsepower using the Ford Focus RS engine
block as a base.

The
electric hyper coupe from Shelby SuperCars manufacturer claims
that its battery will not require a charge "for six years"),
powering dual, five-hundred horsepower electric motors, the whole
thing sounds more than a bit fishy. It deserves noting that the
battery technology doesn't exist to support those claims

Gold
plated Porsche 911 turbo
A
40- pound pure gold covered Porsche 911. We find the idea annoying
but appreciate the work that has gone into it. The carvings and
designs on the surface are brilliant and would have taken weeks
to complete by an extremely set of talented and skilled individuals.The
polished surface looks nice and should have masked the rear-view
mirrors entirely, eliminating the need for a reflective glass
and related electronics for adjustments, but maybe next time.
