Tramontana R Edition - Pictures and Video

The super cool, super quick Tramontana R Edition car is an evolved version of the standard open-wheel 2 seater, packing a Mercedes-sourced 5.5-liter V12 available in either naturally aspirated, 550 hp guise or a twin-turbocharged 760 hp version that dolls out an astonishing 811 lb-ft of torque. It does 0-100 kph in 3.6 seconds and gets 200 kph in a 10.15-second run. Price tag is a credit busting €385,000 but its one hell of a cool car as these pictures and video below show.








The wheelbase has been shortened by 50mm to improve handling and aerodynamics, and weight is down by 202 pounds to just 2,777 pounds. The R stretches 192 inches from nose to tail, is 82 inches wide and 51 inches tall, and weight distribution is a perfect 50:50 left to right and 42:58 front to rear.




Tramontana fitted 20-inch carbon fiber and magnesium wheels at each corner, along with high-performance summer rubber sized 245/40 in front and 335/30 in the rear. 380mm, six-piston Brembos handle stopping duties, while a custom Ohlins suspension allows the R's ride-height to be adjusted between 85 and 135 mm.






The body speaks for itself, as does the exposed carbon fiber interior, which features a chop-top steering wheel, an LCD instrument panel and the controls to the six-speed sequential gearbox.

Production will be limited to 12 units per year with a price tag of €385,000 ($495,000).

I'm not a fan of motorbikes but Megan Fox makes motorbikes look cool too!

Sexy Car Girls

Hot girls pose in front of sports cars. Why? Because they can and they get paid lots of money to do so.

Peugeot 308

We're not convinced by this craze for 'family faces' sweeping through the car world.

Yes, sticking the same front end on all your cars might be good for brand recognition or something else equally buzz-wordy, but if your family face was Peugeot's current crop, wouldn't you consider surgery? Or, at least for the sake of your offspring, avoidance of interbreeding?

These are the first shots of the Peugeot 308, the successor to the 307 and proud exponent of the Pug family face.

And the styling is almost depressingly predictable. The 308 gets the wide, gaping grill and pointier, more aggressive nose of the 207. It's not pretty, but at least you'll know it's a Peugeot.

There has been some Gallic cloning at play round the back of the 308, though, with a steatopygous rear end reminiscent of the fat-arsed Megane.

Peugeot is promising an improvement in the interior quality over the 307, with a fresh dash and more robust materials.

There's no firm word on engines yet, but expect the 308 to get the 1.6-litre petrol and diesel variants found in the new Mini line-up.

The 308 will doubtless spawn coupe-cabriolet and station wagon variants in the not-too-distant future.

We'll have more details on the 308 before it reaches these shores in the autumn.
