The Russian tuning atelier TopCar has issued an extensive upgrade kit for the popular Porsche 911 Turbo S sports car.

On the outside, the Porsche 911 Turbo S (7th generation / 991.2 body type) has received a unique matte grey lacquering with contrasting yellow accents (BMW’s “Frozen” tint), a set of 21-inch, five-spoke ADV.1 wheels and a trademark TopCar Stinger GTR body kit encompassing new bumpers, a front and a rear wing, a diffusor, an anti-wing and numerous other carbon parts, whether functional or decorative.

On the technical side of things, the shiny new Porsche 911 Turbo S by TopCar has got heavy-duty brakes and a more efficient exhaust system. Its engine performance went up to 750 hp (560 kW), but the tuner remains silent on the technicalities of the upgrade. It could be mentioned that the regular model ships with a gasoline-powered, opposite-cylinder V6 engine with 3.8 liters of displacement room, 580 hp (433 kW) and 700 Nm (515 lb·ft) of torque. It is paired with a seven-speed DCT.

The interior of the luxury-laden Porsche 911 Turbo S has enjoyed some tuner attention as well. It is now dominated by a dual-color scheme with yellow instrument housings, carbon decorative moldings in the central console, door panels and the steering wheel, and livened up by bright yellow stitching.

Carlex Design, a Polish car interior design firm, has unveiled an interesting take on the luxurious BMW X6 M SUV. The vehicle was decorated in a predominantly black gamma with numerous yellow highlights throughout. Only top-grade leather and Alcantara were used.

Interestingly, the owner of the car first took it to the German tuning house Manhart for an extensive performance upgrade. The BMW X6 M left the works with a logo which read ‘MHX6 800’ – that’s the name of the upgrade carried out by Manhart.

The vehicle got a new carbon aerodynamic body kit alongside with other similar improvements. Its stock 4.4-liter, twin-turbo V8 engine, initially capable of 575 hp (429 kW) and 750 Nm (553 lb·ft) of torque, has been upgraded to output up to 823 hp (614 kW) and 1,100 Nm (811 lb·ft).

The German car tuner R1 Motorsports has launched sales of a new body kit package for the luxurious Audi R8 V10 Plus. While purely aesthetic, the upgrade looks exceptionally sleek and stylish – and therefore perhaps worthy of consideration.

The hood compartment of the Audi R8 V10 Plus supercar got to keep its naturally-aspirated V10 gasoline engine capable of 611 hp (455 kW) and 560 Nm (413 lb·ft) of torque. It can sprint to 100 km/h (62 mph) in under 3.3 seconds and ultimately accelerates to 330 km/h (205 mph).

The German luxury car maker Porsche has released an optional upgrade package for the 911 GT3 RS supercar. You can purchase the basic carbon body kit at U.S. $18,000.

The Porsche 911 GT3 RS Weissach upgrade comes with a composite roof, all-carbon pillars, and stabilizers. It also replaces some of the body parts with ones made of carbon. Be prepared to throw in another $13,000 for an optional set of luxury-grade light alloy wheels.

All in all, the Weissach body kit strives to reduce the car weight as much as possible and thus improve its overall acceleration performance.

The latest generation of Porsche 911 GT3 RS cars debuted in February 2018. It received a 520-horsepower (387 kW) engine that could get it going at 100 km/h (62 mph) in as little as 3.2 seconds.

The South Korean premium automotive brand Genesis has revealed Essentia, a conceptual coupe car envisioned as a trailblazer model for an all-new Gran Turismo-class production vehicle scheduled for 2020.

The new Genesis Essentia Concept is a stunningly gorgeous all-carbon monocoque with butterfly doors and sleek LED bands in place of the conventional headlights. Too bad we don’t know much about its power and road performance. The manufacturer says it gets several electric engines which can accelerate it 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in under 3 seconds, though, which is an impressive achievement beyond any doubt.

Lucky owners of the lush Lamborghini Aventador S can now upgrade their vehicle for even more performance and acceleration dynamics. Novitec has released an extensive tuning package for the already more than able supercar.

The worldwide known tuning studio Manhart Racing has unveiled a racing-only redesign of the BMW M4 Coupe, a car it has already worked on before. The car got an even more aggressive-looking all-carbon body kit and gained in power this time around.

Apart from the aerodynamically shaped body kit, it also received a set of racing-grade wheels clad in high-performance tires, a roll cage, and sport seats. On the other hand, all options and features designed purely for comfort have been thrown away to make the new Manhart MH4 550 as lightweight as possible.

The hood compartment of the racing-only Manhart MH4 550 conceals a 3,0-liter V6 engine reworked to output up to 550 horsepower. Its acceleration performance remains undisclosed, as does the total cost of the project.

The China-based IAT Automobile Technology has released what looks like the most expensive SUV in history. Karlmann King can be purchased at U.S. $2 million in its base version, whereas the top-of-the-line model costs a head-spinning $3,8 million. Production plans exist for only 10 cars.

At its core, remarkably enough, the ultra-luxurious Karlmann King is but a heavily modded Ford F-550 driven by a power-packed 6,8-liter V10 capable of 400 horsepower. Big and badass as it is, this engine still has trouble accelerating the vehicle which weighs 4.5 metric tons (~10,000 lbs.) past 140 km/h (87 mph). One can only guess how it manages to push forward the armor-clad version of the SUV, which weighs all of 6 metric tons (~13,333 lbs.).

The passenger compartment of the highly unique Karlmann King SUV houses an espresso machine, a fridge and a folding table, and offers a Sony PlayStation 4 for entertainment.
