Porsche 928 
Slumping sales of the 911 in the mid-1970s seemed to confirm that the model was approaching the end of its economic life cycle. Fuhrmann envisioned the new range-topping grand tourer model as being the best possible combination of a sports coupé and a luxury sedan. This would set it apart from the 911, with its relatively spartan interior and true sports car performance. The targets were that the car had to compete on par with offerings from Mercedes-Benz and BMW while also being successful in the United States, Porsche's main market at the time.
Several drivetrain layouts were considered during early development, including rear- and mid-engine, but most were dismissed because of technical and legislative difficulties. Having the engine, transmission, catalytic converter(s) and exhaust all cramped into a small rear engine bay made emission and noise control difficult which were the problems Porsche had with the 911. After deciding that the mid-engine layout did not allow enough room in the passenger compartment, a front-engine, rear-wheel drive layout was chosen
The finished car debuted at the 1977 Geneva Motor Show before going on sale later that year as a 1978 model. Although it won early acclaim for its comfort, power and futuristic design, sales were slow. Base prices were much higher than that of the previous range-topping 911 model and the 928's front-engined, water-cooled design alienated many Porsche purists.
The 928 featured a large, front-mounted and water-cooled V8 engine driving the rear wheels. Originally displacing 4.5 L and featuring a single overhead camshaft design, it was rated at 219 hp (163 kW; 222 PS) for the North American market and 240 PS (177 kW; 237 hp) in other markets. Porsche upgraded the engine from mechanical to electronic fuel injection in 1980 for US models, although power remained the same. This design marked a major change in direction for Porsche (started with the introduction of the 924 in 1976), whose cars had until then used only rear- or mid-mounted air-cooled flat engines with four or six cylinders.
Porsche utilised a transaxle in the 928 to help achieve 50/50 front/rear weight distribution, aiding the car's balance. Although it weighed more than the difficult-to-handle 911, its more neutral weight balance and higher power output gave it similar performance on the track. The 928 was regarded as the more relaxing car to drive at the time. It came with either a five-speed dog leg manual transmission, or a Mercedes-Benz-derived automatic transmission, originally with three speeds, with four-speed from 1983 in North America and 1984 in other markets. For the first generation cars, 1978 & 1979, the majority of cars were fitted with the less expensive 5 speed manual gearbox while the optional 3 speed automatic was much scarcer. As the model years continued, this ratio evened out and then finally more cars had the automatic transmission. The exact percentage of manual and automatic gearbox cars for the entire production run is not known.
The body, styled by Wolfgang Möbius under the guidance of Anatole Lapine, was mainly galvanized steel, but the doors, front wing, front fenders, and hood were made of aluminium to save weight. It had a substantial luggage area accessed via a large hatchback. Newly developed polyurethane elastic bumpers were integrated into the nose and tail and covered in body-coloured plastic; an unusual feature for the time that aided the car visually and reduced its drag. Another unusual feature was the pop-up headlamps which were based on the units found on the Lamborghini Miura and were integrated into the front wings.
Although it never sold in the numbers Fuhrmann envisioned, the 928 developed an avid following and had an 18-year production run.

AMG S63 Cabrio 4MATIC+ "The Luxury Cabriolet with Open Air feeling".
Back in the days the versatile AMG 4.0L biturbo V8 engine in the S63 Cabrio 4MATIC+ takes peak performance to a new level at 450kW (612hp). Maximum torque attains a new best value of 900Nm.
It is available over a broad engine speed range of 2750 to 4500rpm and so provides a feeling of effortless superiority in every accelerator pedal position. A sprint from zero to 100 km/h is absolved in 3.5 seconds, and this dynamic acceleration only ends at the governed top speed of 250km/h (with AMG Driver's package: 300km/h).
The advanced AMG 4.0L V8 biturbo engine utilises well-proven twin turbocharging, with the two chargers not located outside on the cylinder banks, but rather between them in the V of the cylinders.
The advantages of the "hot inner V" are a compact engine design, an immediate response from the twin-scroll turbochargers and low exhaust gas emissions thanks to optimum air flow for the close-coupled catalytic converters.
Two twin-scroll turbochargers are deployed for the first time to boost performance and improve responsiveness further. The housing is divided into two parallel flow passages. Combined with two separate exhaust ducts in the exhaust manifold, this makes it possible to control the exhaust gases on the turbine wheel separately.
The exhaust gas from the first and fourth cylinders of the cylinder bank is fed into one duct and exhaust gas from the second and third cylinders to the other duct. The aim is to prevent the individual cylinders from having mutually adverse effects on the gas cycle.

DS9: "Life Support"
Tumblr media
After months of secret negotiations, Kain Winn and Vedek Bareil are close to securing a peace treaty between Bajor and Cardassia. When Bareil is severely injured in a shuttle accident, Winn relocates the talks to Deep Space Nine, so that the vedek can continue to advise her from the station's infirmary. Although Doctor Bashir recommends extensive rest, Bareil insists on any experimental treatment that will allow him to help the kai...even at the cost of his own life.
The A-plot of this episode is pretty good, but every time I sit down to watch it, I get a sinking feeling when it starts out on the B-plot. In general, I like how Jake Sisko and Nog overcome their cultural differences to remain best friends. But their disastrous double date, and Jake's scheme to patch things up, feels like something out of an unfunny sitcom.
The peace treaty itself isn't important to the Bareil story--he could have been advising Winn on any number of important political issues, and it wouldn't make much difference. Even so, I like that the show built up Cardassian-Bajoran hostilities and then resolved them here rather quietly. The treaty doesn't matter a lot in the long run, but it will loom over several episodes in a way that adds texture to Deep Space Nine's neighborhood.
The basic conflict, between Bareil's work and his personal wellbeing, holds up. But it's a little shaky in places where you can tell the original idea was for Bashir to use questionable procedures to reanimate a dead man. Bareil's near-death experience in the first act doesn't really feel necessary for the finished story, but I can see how it would have played into a Bashir-as-Frankenstein arc. Replacing several of Bareil's organs with artificial implants also ends up feeling excessive, especially since they never bother to make Bareil look like he's undergone multiple surgeries. Which brings us to the robot brain.
Bashir's last big move is to replace the left half of Bareil's brain with a positronic implant. This has always bothered me, since Star Trek had firmly established positronic brains as something you'd use to build a fully artificial person, i.e., Lt. Commander Data. Replacing part of Bareil's brain with part of Data's brain sounds a bit like swapping his kidneys for a catalytic converter. This seems like a very controversial, very difficult form of surgery...but within two minutes of bringing it up, Bashir has already finished, and Bareil doesn't have a hair out of place! It's a good thing Philip Anglim delivers a chilling performance of a man who's been halfway turned into Mr. Data, because otherwise you might totally fail to notice that Bashir has opened up his head and scooped out a chunk of his brain.

Throttle Day - Acceleration Tips!
Let's dive into the key components affecting automobile acceleration:
🔧 Fuel Filter: The fuel filter removes impurities from the fuel before it reaches the engine. A clogged fuel filter can restrict fuel flow leading to decreased engine performance and sluggish acceleration. Regular replacement helps maintain optimal fuel flow and acceleration.
🔧 Fuel Pump: The fuel pump delivers fuel from the tank to the engine. If the fuel pump is faulty or failing, it may not deliver enough fuel to the engine causing poor acceleration or stalling. Signs of a failing fuel pump include sputtering or hesitation during acceleration.
🔧 Fuel Injector: Fuel injectors spray fuel into the engine's combustion chamber. Clogged or malfunctioning fuel injectors can lead to uneven fuel distribution resulting in rough idling, poor acceleration, and decreased fuel efficiency. Regular cleaning or replacement of fuel injectors is essential for smooth acceleration.
🔧 Catalytic Converter: The catalytic converter reduces harmful emissions by converting toxic gases into less harmful ones. A failing catalytic converter can cause engine performance issues including reduced acceleration and power. Symptoms of a failing catalytic converter include decreased acceleration and a noticeable decrease in fuel efficiency.
To optimize acceleration and maintain peak performance, ensure regular maintenance of these components and address any issues promptly. Trust HHD Motors to keep your vehicle running smoothly and accelerating with power!

New Post has been published on https://www.vividracing.com/blog/tasteful-porsche-991-1-turbo-build-pays-tribute-to-1973-carrera-rs/
Tasteful Porsche 991.1 Turbo Build Pays Tribute To 1973 Carrera RS
If you are looking to make your 2014 Porsche 911 991.1 Turbo stand out from the crowd, then you are in the right place! Whether you’re a professional racer, a weekend enthusiast, or just someone who appreciates a good car, Vivid Racing knows all the parts and accessories you need to take your fine German automobile to the next level.
Recently, we’ve elevated this Porsche to new heights by integrating some of our top-notch parts. The result? An incredible transformation that makes this 991 Turbo truly stand out. From performance upgrades to luxurious touches, our Porsche 911 is what we find to be the perfect balance between all the adventure capabilities while maintaining its reliable daily driving duties.
Our Goal for this Porsche 911 991.1 Turbo
– Enhance driving performance and add character – Unlock even more of its potential with basic bolt-ons
To pay tribute to the classic Carrera RS, the aim was to incorporate elements of its livery. This involved making the 991.1 platform even more appealing by adding OEM+ upgrades. The exterior was transformed from its original white color to a vibrant green reminiscent of the Carrera RS, creating a visually striking and creatively customized appearance for this 911.
ARMYTRIX Valvetronic Exhaust System
We started off our upgrades with the VR Performance Valvetronic Exhaust System for the Porsche 991.1 Turbo. This exhaust system is designed to provide maximum performance, sound quality, and durability. With its valvetronic technology, you can control the sound of your engine from inside the cabin with a simple switch – giving you complete control over how loud or quiet your ride is at any given time! The exhaust notes from the ARMYTRIX system are monstrous. Not only does this exhaust system look and sound great, but it also increases horsepower and torque while reducing back pressure in order to maximize efficiency in your engine.
Exhaust Benefits 
– Headers and intake open up airflow – Reduces backpressure in turbo platforms – Provides horsepower and torque gains – Improves exhaust sound
VRP High Flow Headers
These new VR Performance tubular headers for the Porsche 991 Turbo or Turbo S really show off the performance you can get out of this engine. The design of the headers are a 3 into 1 style that the twin turbo REALLY benefits from. Unlike the 996 and 997 Turbo, the 991 headers are very restrictive and the clam shell design prohibits the turbos from spooling up quickly. 
Headers Benefits
– Increases airflow – Reduces backpressure – Increases Horsepower & Torque – Improves exhaust sound
VR Tuned ECU Flash
To really get the most out of our modifications we decided to get an ECU flash from VR Tuned for this Porsche 991.1 Turbo. This optimizes engine performance, enhancing horsepower and torque while maintaining fuel efficiency. We opted the tune with:
Vmax Off – This is an increase or reduction of the maximum speed limit.
Race Exhaust – This option is for those running full race exhaust systems.
Pops & Bangs (burble tune) – This is the result of an ignition delay which creates an exhaust detonation when the throttle pedal is released. 
ECU Flash Benefits
– Eliminates CEL codes caused by headers or high-flow catalytic converters installation – Properly optimizes and adjusts fuel and ignition maps for the new modifications – Provides an additional 100 wheel horsepower over stock
VRP Upgraded Diverter Valve Pair
The factory diverter valves are prone to leaking pressure under increased boost. To help keep the boost pressure constant all the way to redline, upgrading the stock diverter valve to the VR Racing Diverter Valve Kit was necessary. These valves are CNC machined 6061 aluminum which have been precision engineered to fit with the stock or aftermarket boost hoses. The internal construction of the valve uses a machined piston with proper o-rings to ensure a smooth motion that is air tight to prevent any boost leaks. The spring has been engineered to hold moderate to aggressive boost increases on your turbo car. 
Diverter Valve Benefits
– Helps eliminate back pressure – Recirculates boost pressure for better throttle response and less turbo lag
H&R Sport Springs
H&R has introduced their Sport Spring lowering kit tailored for the Porsche 911 Turbo | Turbo S. These Sport Springs lower the vehicle’s center of gravity, minimizing body roll and improving its handling capabilities. This also helps with a more aggressive stance, all while retaining the factory suspension components. All H&R springs are crafted from a special (hf) 54SiCr6 spring steel to ensure premium quality and performance. 
Sport Spring Benefits
– Maintaines all factory Porsche suspension components for reliability – Lowers the center of gravity for better handling – Gives the car a lower, sportier look while keeping the factory handling
VRP Cold Air Intake Kit
Unlocking maxium power starts with airflow, and the Porsche 991 Turbo knows it well. Upgrading the stock intake system in this beast can be quite the challenge due to its redesigned engine bay. But look no further! Our kit is here to revolutionize the game. We’ve retained the factory intake snorkel, channeling airflow directly to our twin cone air filters. These filters aren’t just any—they feature a high-flow filtration design to stop more bad particles while keeping an extremely high efficiency. Each filter comes with an intake tube that is powdercoated wrinkle black made from 6061 heat treated aluminum and TIG welded. 
The VRP cold air intake kit is a game-changer, giving the Turbo quick throttle response, almost like driving in perpetual sport mode all the time. Need proof? With this kit, we were able to pick up 0.1sec quicker 0-60mph.  Dyno tests will reveal a gain of about 15ft/lbs of torque at the peak while horsepower gain is 10awhp at peak RPM.
Cold Air Intake Benefits
– Increases air flow – Improves sound and appearance – Increases Horsepower and Torque
VR Forged D03-R Wheel Set
No matter what kind of car you have, nothing makes a statement quite like some tasteful wheels! We chose the VR Forged D03-R Wheels powedercoated in signal green. This touch pays homage to classic Porsche Carrera RS livery. For this build, a classic 10-spoke with an outer ring design gives it that racing sporty look while still maintaining an air of sophistication and elegance thanks to their unique design. It’s definitely an upgrade that can’t be ignored! Plus they come in 20 x 9 +45 front & 20 x 12 +45 rear sizes so they fit perfectly on the 991.1 Turbo without any issues whatsoever.
Forged Wheel Benefits – Improve performance and aesthetics – Provides a “Euro motorsports flare” compared to previous 5-spoke wheels – Increases strength and provides weight savings over factory wheels
VR Aero Carbon Fiber Wing Lip Spoiler
The Porsche 991 Turbo and Turbo S are incredibly designed vehicles in performance, handling, and aerodynamics.  But with all 911 body styles, there is one thing that really makes the iconic shape stand out over stock vehicles. That is, of course, the addition of a more aggressive rear spoiler.  For years people have been upgrading the rear ends to feature a GT2 or GT3 style rear spoilers.  With the 991 Turbo, the factory hydraulic rear spoiler and front spoiler work hand and hand to provide incredible aerodynamic ability. At 300kph, the 991 Turbo can produce 132kg of downforce, allowing it to lap the Nordschleife two seconds faster than in the normal mode. To keep these incredible stats but add extra styling, we added one final touch – VR Aero Carbon Fiber Wing Lip Spoiler for a little extra pizzazz!
This is a simple add on piece that installs in less than 30 minutes.  It allows it to fit snuggly on the stock spoiler curves without drilling or cutting into anything.  It wraps around the front and rear of the factory wing blade to lock in place. The lightweight carbon fiber piece is styled to match other VR Aero carbon fiber parts.  
Wing Lip Spoiler Features
– Retains the factory function in the up or down position – Requires no special tools to install – 2×2 Carbon weave Carbon Fiber – Gloss coat with 3K UV resistant finish – Fits over stock ducts for easy install – Perfect fitment
VR Aero Carbon Fiber Side Air Ducts
For a touch of sporty elegance, we installed the VR Aero Carbon Fiber Side Air Ducts. These lightweight carbon fiber pieces are not only styled to match other VR Aero carbon fiber parts but also adds a unique aesthetic appeal to the 991 Turbo. These air vents provide additional cooling and lend a bold and aggressive look to the vehicle. 
Side Air Duct Features
– Requires no special tools to install – 2×2 Carbon weave Carbon Fiber – Gloss coat with 3K UV resistant finish – Fits over stock ducts for easy install – Perfect fitment
VR Aero Carbon Fiber Rear Diffuser
To take the exterior to the next level, we’ve added the VR Aero carbon fiber diffuser, and let’s just say, it’s a game-changer for that stylish, aggressive vibe you crave! Our goal was to find best performing upgrades and develop them at affordable price. This rear diffuser isn’t just an addition; it’s a statement. Crafted to seamlessly attach to the OEM rear bumper, it’s designed to flow the lines of the rear skirt. This carbon fiber piece not only adds flair but amplifies the rear end of the 991, making heads turn wherever you go.
Rear Diffuser Features
– Requires no special tools to install – 2×2 Carbon weave Carbon Fiber – Gloss coat with 3K UV resistant finish – Fits over stock ducts for easy install – Perfect fitment
VRP Porsche PDK Cup Style Shifter Stick
Last but not least, we’ve added the VR Performance Cup Shifter for more fun and engaging shifting experience. This shifter was designed to give PDK owners a whole new experience in driving their car. Mimicked after the factory cup car style shift knob and assembly, this makes banging through the gears a lot more fun. We also wanted to maintain OEM+ style for this build as Porsche interiors already have great features from the factory. The height of the shifter is increased about 3 inches over the stock PDK lever. This puts the Cup Shifter at a great position in reference to the steering wheel. You now can have quick hand placement from the steering wheel to shift knob to smash through the gears like a pro!
Sifter Features
– Added longer shifter knob with button actuator – Gives sequential style shifting feel – Gives interior OEM+ look – CNC machined from 6061 aluminum – Cup car style shift knob – Carbon fiber center tube – Easy installation
At Vivid Racing, we offer a range of parts and accessories perfect for enhancing your Porsche 911 991.1 Turbo, catering to everyone from professional racers to weekend enthusiasts or anyone who simply loves quality cars. Our selection spans performance upgrades to luxurious additions, ensuring your Porsche strikes the ideal balance between adventure-ready capabilities and reliable daily driving.

Automotive design
These outstanding technical advancements are not made without economic consequences. According to a study by Ward’s Communications Incorporated, the average cost for a new American car increased $4,700 (in terms of the value of the dollar in 2000) between 1980 and 2001 because of mandated safety and emission-control performance requirements (such as the addition of air bags and catalytic converters). New requirements continued to be implemented in subsequent years. The addition of computer technology was another factor driving up car prices, which increased by 29 percent between 2009 and 2019. This is in addition to the consumer costs associated with engineering improvements in fuel economy, which may be offset by reduced fuel purchases.
Vehicle design depends to a large extent on its intended use. Automobiles for off-road use must be durable, simple systems with high resistance to severe overloads and extremes in operating conditions. Conversely, products that are intended for high-speed, limited-access road systems require more passenger comfort options, increased engine performance, and optimized high-speed handling and vehicle stability. Stability depends principally on the distribution of weight between the

Indicators that your car's exhaust system needs repairing
Tumblr media
Not everyone is aware of how crucial your car's exhaust system is to its overall health and performance. In order to provide safer and cleaner emissions, it diverts dangerous gases and pollutants away from your engine. If your exhaust system isn't working properly, it could seriously harm the engine and cause carbon monoxide buildups inside the car, which could be fatal for you and your passengers.
Here are signs that your exhaust needs repairing as suggested by car garages in Reading:  
Loud Engine Noise
Your car will likely sound louder than usual when you have an exhaust leak, which is the first sign you'll usually hear. On your exhaust pipe, you will find one or two mufflers that significantly lessen engine noise. The mufflers won't be able to muffle the sound if the exhaust leak happens before one of them because it will run out before them. Depending on the size of the exhaust leak, this will result in a louder engine sound.
Check Engine Light
Of course, a faulty exhaust could be one of the many causes for your check engine light to illuminate. Every time your check engine light illuminates, it's a good idea to have your car tested and examined by a qualified mechanic. Search for garages in Reading to find the best mechanics.
Blowing noise coming from underneath
When you rev the engine, an exhaust leak that is only a little hole occasionally makes a blowing sound. Different sounds, including high-pitched whistling noises, can be produced depending on the size of the entire. You most certainly have an exhaust leak if you hear a "blowing" sound coming from below your vehicle that wasn't there before.
Exhaust smell
It's never a good indication when your car smells like exhaust, and it could be a clue that you have an exhaust leak. If the exhaust smells like rotten eggs, there may be a problem with the catalytic converter. A limited amount of Sulphur is included in exhaust gases, which the catalytic converter transforms into odorless Sulphur dioxide. The Sulphur will still emit its distinct rotten-egg odour if it isn't performing its job.
Poor Fuel Efficiency
Your car's total fuel efficiency can be significantly impacted by your exhaust system. You should have your car inspected by a professional if you discover that your mileage is seriously declining. Search for car repairs near me and book an appointment with a trusted mechanic.

What Warranties Do Jeep Dealers Near Me Provide? A Look at ARAS Jeep Madurai
When purchasing a Jeep, you're not just investing in a rugged, capable vehicle—you’re securing peace of mind through the warranty coverage that Jeep dealers provide. A well-supported warranty can make all the difference, covering you against unexpected costs and ensuring that your Jeep maintains its performance, reliability, and safety for years to come. At ARAS Jeep Madurai, an official Jeep dealership, we take pride in providing warranty options that are comprehensive and customer-friendly.
This article will break down the types of warranties typically offered by Jeep dealers, what’s included, and why ARAS Jeep Madurai is an excellent choice for customers in Madurai and surrounding areas.
Types of Warranties Offered by Jeep Dealers
Basic Limited Warranty (Bumper-to-Bumper) The Basic Limited Warranty, often referred to as the “bumper-to-bumper” warranty, provides coverage on almost all parts and components of the Jeep. This warranty typically covers three years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first. It ensures that if any factory-installed parts fail due to manufacturing defects, Jeep will repair or replace them at no cost. However, normal wear-and-tear items like brake pads and windshield wipers aren’t included.
Powertrain Limited Warranty Covering critical components, the Powertrain Limited Warranty includes the engine, transmission, and drivetrain. It’s designed to protect against defects in these crucial systems, which can be costly to repair or replace. Jeep typically offers powertrain coverage for five years or 60,000 miles. This extended duration is invaluable, especially for Jeep drivers who often put their vehicles through rugged use. ARAS Jeep Madurai provides this warranty, ensuring that customers are protected over the long haul.
Rust-Through Warranty Jeep vehicles are built tough, but they are still susceptible to corrosion over time, particularly when exposed to extreme environments. The Rust-Through Warranty is Jeep’s commitment to protect the body of your vehicle from rust perforation. This warranty usually covers five years, with no mileage limit, so you can rest assured that if rust causes damage to your vehicle’s body panels, it will be repaired or replaced.
Emission Warranties To comply with environmental standards, Jeep offers an Emission Warranty that covers specific emissions-related parts and systems. This is a critical warranty, especially as emissions regulations become stricter. Emission Warranties vary depending on the state, but in general, they include coverage for the catalytic converter, engine control module, and other emission-specific components for up to eight years or 80,000 miles.
Roadside Assistance Coverage Jeep understands that the journey is as important as the destination, which is why they provide Roadside Assistance Coverage with new vehicle purchases. This service is typically available for five years or 60,000 miles and includes emergency help with lockouts, tire changes, and towing. At ARAS Jeep Madurai, we ensure that customers are informed and prepared, so they know they can count on Jeep’s assistance wherever they go.
Extended Warranty Options Beyond the standard warranties, Jeep offers extended warranty options for those who want extra coverage. An extended warranty can give you additional peace of mind, covering parts and services beyond the initial factory warranties. ARAS Jeep Madurai can work with you to explore options and find the extended warranty plan that fits your driving habits and coverage needs.

Customer Support and Roadside Assistance: Our dealership’s support doesn’t end when you drive off the lot. We’re here for you in times of need, whether it’s with general inquiries, emergency assistance, or scheduled maintenance covered under your warranty.
Understanding What’s Not Covered
While warranties offer substantial protection, they do not cover everything. Certain exclusions apply, including:
Wear-and-Tear Items: Components like brake pads, tires, and wiper blades are not typically covered as they wear out naturally over time.
Damage from Accidents or Modifications: Any damage resulting from accidents, misuse, or aftermarket modifications may not be covered. At ARAS Jeep Madurai, we advise customers on how to keep their warranty intact.
Regular Maintenance: Services like oil changes and tire rotations are not covered by standard warranties. However, we offer service packages to make routine maintenance more affordable.
By understanding what’s included—and what’s not—you can get the most out of your warranty coverage and feel confident in your investment.
FAQs about Jeep Warranties at ARAS Jeep Madurai
1. What happens if my Jeep needs repairs while still under warranty? When you bring your vehicle to ARAS Jeep Madurai, our service team will check if the repair is covered by your warranty. If it is, we’ll handle the repair or replacement at no additional cost to you.
2. Can I transfer my Jeep warranty if I sell my car? Yes, Jeep’s warranties are generally transferable to a new owner within the warranty period. This adds value to your vehicle and can be a selling point if you decide to upgrade.

Porsche 962 CR Schuppan
The Schuppan-Porsche 962CR, a road-going version of the Porsche 962, was the brainchild of Porsche factory driver and 1983 Le Mans winner Vern Schuppan and Toshio Terada, Managing Director of Art Sports, the high-performance car import and marketing division of Art Corporation, Japan. ‍ The two had a shared ambition to create the ultimate supercar. Art Sports had the marketing vision and Vern Schuppan Limited (VSL) the capability in design, R & D and manufacturing. The 962CR was a wildly ambitious project, which swallowed millions of dollars of R & D costs before being cruelly struck down by the stock market crash of 1992. As a result, only four of a projected fifty 962 CR chassis were ever produced, and this car was the last produced by Schuppan's original company VSL. ‍ The 962CR featured high tech carbon composite bodywork and moulded monocoque and was fitted with 500hp-plus 962/71 3.2 litre, fully air-cooled twin-turbo engine with catalytic converters and silencers. Transmission is via a racing 962 type 5-speed synchromesh gearbox with limited-slip differential.
From the custom ‘Team Schuppan’ brake callipers to the CRT TV - which display a live feed from the reversing camera - to the leather-trimmed suspension arm gators and headlamp pod surrounds, the 962CR is packed to the brim with fascinating and well-considered detailing and high build quality. The Schuppan 962CR was truly designed to be a usable and luxurious road version of the car that Porsche designed to win Le Mans.  ‍

AMG S63 Cabrio 4MATIC+ "The Luxury Cabriolet with Open Air feeling".
The versatile AMG 4.0L biturbo V8 engine in the S63 Cabrio 4MATIC+ takes peak performance to a new level at 450kW (612hp). Maximum torque attains a new best value of 900Nm. It is available over a broad engine speed range of 2750 to 4500rpm and so provides a feeling of effortless superiority in every accelerator pedal position. A sprint from zero to 100 km/h is absolved in 3.5 seconds, and this dynamic acceleration only ends at the governed top speed of 250km/h (with AMG Driver's package: 300km/h).
The advanced AMG 4.0L V8 biturbo engine utilises well-proven twin turbocharging, with the two chargers not located outside on the cylinder banks, but rather between them in the V of the cylinders. The advantages of the "hot inner V" are a compact engine design, an immediate response from the twin-scroll turbochargers and low exhaust gas emissions thanks to optimum air flow for the close-coupled catalytic converters.
Two twin-scroll turbochargers are deployed for the first time to boost performance and improve responsiveness further. The housing is divided into two parallel flow passages. Combined with two separate exhaust ducts in the exhaust manifold, this makes it possible to control the exhaust gases on the turbine wheel separately.
The exhaust gas from the first and fourth cylinders of the cylinder bank is fed into one duct and exhaust gas from the second and third cylinders to the other duct. The aim is to prevent the individual cylinders from having mutually adverse effects on the gas cycle.
Mercedes-AMG One man, one engine Handcrafted by Michael Kübler @f1mike28 in Germany Affalterbach. Driving Performance is my Passion! Mercedes-AMG the Performance and Sports Car Brand from Mercedes-Benz and Exclusive Partner for Pagani Automobili. Mercedes-AMG Handcrafted by Racers.
