The tuners from British company Ricardo have come out with a military-themed Ford Ranger. Let us see what Europe’s best-selling truck has to offer in its new guise.

The most obvious improvements include the taller ride height and heavy-duty suspension components that should make it possible to traverse all kinds of wilderness. Just to be on the safe side, the tuners throw a humongous all-terrain tire set into the mix.

The army-loving Ford Ranger sports armored body and windows and houses a gun turret inside. The roof rack is small, but also practical.

Changes were made in the electric circuit to facilitate adding a radio station later. The transmission and engine remained stock, however, which in case of the Ranger means 10-speed auto and 2.0 TDI churning out 210 hp (157 kW) and 500 Nm (370 lb-ft) of torque.

Performance editions of the Ford Mustang have traditionally been associated with Shelby. This time around, however, the manufacturer stole the initiative from its traditional tuner by announcing the limited R-Spec series for Australia.

The production run consists of only 500 units. Each packs 700 horsepower (522 kilowatts) under the hood and costs U.S. $65,000 and above.

To better evaluate the offer, consider for a moment that the same kind of money buys you a 190hp (142kW) Audi A4 with a premium trim or a 272hp (203kW) VW Passat in Europe.

What’s the catch? There isn’t much of one, apparently. All cars ship equipped with the Roush Performance’s Roots supercharger installed. The unit has 2.65 liters of own displacement and produces 12 psi.

Each car gets a six-speed manual transmission (no options here), two potent powertrain cooling circuits, lowered suspension (-20mm / -0.8”), adjustable roll stabilization, and originally styled 19-inch wheels clad in Michelin Pilot Sport 4S rubber.

The one-off masterpiece you see here is called Mantide. A C6 Corvette ZR1 at heart, it was designed by Jason Castriota and built by Stile Bertone in Italy.

Originally, production plans existed for ten such cars, but only one ended up seeing the daylight. The coupe comes powered by a 6.2-liter turbocharged V8 which delivers 638 horsepower (476 kilowatts) to the wheels via a six-speed manual transmission.

According to its makers, the Bertone Mantide sprints 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in 3.2 seconds and maxes out above 350 km/h (217 mph).

As soon as it was completed, the two-door vehicle went on a lengthy press tour, after which it returned home to the USA, where it gained a Pearl While paintjob. Currently, the odometer reads slightly more than 10,000 miles (16,000 kilometers).

As you probably know, Dodge has yielded to the pleas of fans asking for the Dodge Ram Rebel TRX Concept to become a mass-produced model. The pickup truck will go on sale in late 2020 or early 2021 packing a gorgeous 6.2-liter Hellcat V8 under the hood. However, patience is an art not everyone can master.

Charles, who owns this 2019 Dodge Ram, felt like speeding things along by taking them in his own hands. He cut out the standard 5.7-liter HEMI V8 and put the 707hp (527kW) Hellcat V8 in its place. He called the end result ‘RebHELL’.

Aside from the engine swap, the truck boasts a Fiberwerx widebody kit, 18-inch Method 305 wheels with a matte-gold finish, Nitto Ridge Grappler 37” tires and numerous other nice features. To upgrade the exhaust system, Charles sourced components from a Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk; to upgrade the air intake route, he used the original parts dismantled from a Challenger SRT Demon.

Quite impressive as tuning goes, wouldn’t you say?

NASCAR racing driver Ryan Blaney, designer Khyzyl Saleem and photographer Larry Chen have unveiled the result of their cooperation: a unique retro-styled Ford Mustang that will be exhibited at the upcoming SEMA Show in Las-Vegas.

The muscle car dons the livery of the legendary Ford GT40 series, which has claimed many awards at the 24 Hours of Le Mans and numerous other US races, such as the 24-hour Daytona race, back in the 1960s. It also sports 20-inch wheels, new performance brakes, and revised, lowered suspension.

Thanks to a turbine charger and a tweaked exhaust system, this particular Mustang GT gets 700 horsepower (522 kilowatts) and 827 Nm (610 pound-feet) of torque from its 5.0-liter V8. The transmission is six-speed manual.

The cabin houses NRG Racing seats, a NASCAR Racing wheel, and six-point safety harnesses.

U.S.-based car atelier DIESELSellerz isn’t as widely known by its name. But mention the popular TV show ‘Diesel Brothers’, and everything clicks into place. The latest project of this team is the enormous truck called Indomitus, based on the Ford F-550 Super Duty chassis and tech.

The tuners start with a 2017 model, which comes equipped with a 6.7-liter Ford Power Stroke V8 diesel. The truck bed gains so much extra length that even the third axle doesn’t feel out of place here. By the way, it is claimed that the truck is a real 6x6 vehicle, courtesy of a TorqShift six-speed auto transmission sending the torque to all axles.

DIESELSellerz uses a suspension spacer kit to lift the F-550 a further 180 mm (7 inches) above ground, and replaces the standard wheels with 40-inch beadlocked ones.

The body of the Ford F-550 Super Duty Indomitus wears a fashionable Giverny Green tint alongside several fancy stickers. There is an expensive genuine leather cover protecting the cargo area from elements, and a spare wheel hidden inside.

Surprisingly enough for the Diesel Brothers, the cabin appears to be almost completely stock. Perhaps more work will be done later, or maybe none was planned, after all.

It was in December 2016 when Mercedes unveiled its new E-Class Coupe and Convertible. The former went on sale in April 2017, the latter followed in September, but neither model became popular with the tuners. Thankfully for us, Mariani Car Styling just fixed it.

Working with a Mercedes-Benz E400 Coupe, the team fitted it with in-house forged wheels measuring 21 inches across and lowered the suspension accordingly. In our opinion, this upgrade alone makes the car shine in a new light, given that the stock 17-inch rims could best be described as ‘lackluster’.

The body stays stock, except for the new Panamericana grille. Much more goes on under the hood, where a gasoline V6 normally churns out 333 horsepower (248 kilowatts) and 480 Newton-meters (354 pound-feet) of torque. Mariani bolsters these figures to 410 hp (306 kW) and 577 Nm (426 lb-ft), bringing the affordable coupe on par with the AMG E 53 4MATIC+. Perhaps the most impressive is the fact that this is done solely by virtue of some chip tuning and redesigning the stock exhaust system.

Mariani Car Styling says a similar upgrade plan is available for the open-top Mercedes-Benz E400 Cabrio (A238).

German customizer Prior Design has plenty of aftermarket goodies prepared for Porsche cars. Remembering them all is a feat worthy only of the most devout of fans; today, we would like to highlight just one of them.

Called the PD971, the package has been designed for the second-gen (971) Porsche Panamera Turbo S. Included are a new front apron, a front spoiler, moderate fender extenders with air slits, and a rear diffuser with four robust-looking fins.

For an extra dose of luxury, you may consider adding a custom wheel/tire set to the build. The show car rides lower-than-stock on 22-inch, glossy-black artFORM AF-301 wheels wrapped in Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta tires.

Prior Design will also perform a complete cabin makeover for the Porsche Panamera Turbo S, adorning the passenger space with a resplendent combination of leather and Alcantara. You may detail your preferences or simply go for the elegant brown/beige theme featured on the photos.

The same kit also partially fits the Panamera 4, 4 E-Hybrid, 4S, 4S Diesel, Turbo, and Turbo S E-Hybrid. Contact the tuner for details.

This project is not really new, but it is still a masterpiece worth returning to. California-based Bisimoto Engineering has not just restored this 1975 Porsche 911 (930) Turbo to top condition, but also gave it a 1,200-horsepower engine.

For starters, the team threw out the stock engine, replacing it with a more modern M96 mill rated at 300 hp (224 kW). It proceeded to upgrade that with dual ball bearing turbos (Bisimoto Turbonetics BTX5857), a revised intake system and a superior intercooler with a water cooling circuit. Of course, the full list just goes on and on. As a result, the actual brake horsepower skyrocketed to 900 hp (671 kW), with the maximum torque coming close (840 Nm, or 620 pound-feet).

Later on, the team experimented with even larger turbos and racing fuel and got 1,200 hp (895 kW) out of the I6, but decided against going this far. Still, a record is a record!

Among other things, this Porsche 911 (930) Turbo sports a front center air intake, extended fenders and a large cutout in the rear end – perhaps for bragging rights as much as for cooling.

Wrapping up the list are side mirrors taken off a Porsche 550 Spyder, 17-inch Fifteen52 rims, Eibach coilovers, Recaro bucket seats with five-point safety harnesses, a roll cage, and an engine control unit taking up some space where the rear seats used to be.
