GT-R vs GT3 RS 4.0



Once again, the guys at m5boarddotcom have managed to compare side by side two great rivals, the Nissan GT-R and the Porsche 997 GT3 RS 4.0. The Porsche looks stock, the Nissan is slighty modified and this time the 4WD is a huge help. In a standstill start all we know who would win without a doubt, but the guys are racing with a rolling start.. so, will the Porsche have a chance?

Hideous Ford GT40 Replica for sale

If you want to buy for an affordable price a piece of american automotive history, you can buy for just 6.800$ a replica of the legendary Ford GT40. Under the body kit lies a 1984 Pontiac Fiero and it doesn't faithfully matches to the style of the GT; this car has a tiny 4 cylinder engine that is linked with a prehistoric automatic transmission. Starting from the fact that most people would never buy a replica, this one looks so be terribly made, the proportions are wrong and if you're planning to buy one (just if you're masochist) make sure to tint the windows, because the interior looks even worse, at least the key ring of the GT looks more real than this car itself.

8 years old girl drives an Audi A6



It may happen to see in a car park a teenager learning to drive without a driving license but with the supervision of an adult, but this time you will see a driving lesson that has exceeded every limit. This video is utterly wrong and dangerous, because a russian mommy and daddy let their 8 years old (yes, eight!) daughter to drive their Audi A6 up to 100km/h without the seatbelt, with the high volume of the music (which causes distraction) and the road conditions that don't allow the best grip of the tyres.

Audi RS4 Avant - The ultimate paintball duel!



What do you think about playing paintball without being covered of paint? Sounds impossible, you would say. It's possible you have a big aircraft hangar and a couple of cars with a big paintball rifle on the hood! This promotional video made by Audi shows a couple of brand new RS4 Avants involved in a paintball duel and you can see them moving around and using their weapons such as the rifles on the hood, the granades and oil slicks.

Lamborghini LP570-4 STS Launch Control!



A very useful button that you find nowadays on most supercars is the launch control feature. If used properly, it allows the fastest acceleration from standstill, but if you push too much the throttle you will take off with the tires screeching and sliding, which is not really a negative thing because it's FUN! In the following  video we can see a red Lamborghini LP570-4 SuperTrofeo Stradale using this feature, love to see it accelerating in this way! Unfortunately we don't get to see supercars doing these things so often because launch control is not healthy for the tires and the clutch.

A little bonus here below, Valentino Balboni performing a launch control with an LP570-4 Superleggera!

Supercar Run in Paris

A cold Saturday hasn't stopped the passion of a group supercar owners and enthusiasts to settle a group and have some fun while doing  some noise around Paris. The Lamborghini Aventador, Ferrari F12 Berlinetta, Audi R8 V0 Spyder, these are some of the around fifteen supercars that took part of the convoy for a drive around the city centre in which you can hear them shouting from standstill at the light and accelerating in the tunnels of the capital.


Spotted again: Zonda 760 RS



The famous Pagani Zonda 760 RS keep getting spotted around Chile, good to see that its driver never hesitates to push the pedal to the metal, it's always a pleasure to hear that 7.3L V12 engine screaming and shooting flames!

See here the previous spot of the Zonda 760RS.
