BMW M6 Coupe by G-Power with 640 HP

G-Power has prepared an upgrade program for the 2012 BMW M6 Coupe. The German tuner is no stranger to creating aftermarket programs for the BMW M6, but this is the first time when they focus on the new model. Known as the M6 Bi-Tronik III, the power kit lifts output to 640 HP (471 kW) and 777 Nm (573 lb-ft), representing an increase of 80 HP (59 kW) and 97 Nm (71 lb-ft). They did this optimizing the twin-turbo V8 4.4-liter engine. As a result, the coupe is now capable of achieving a top speed of 310 km/h (192 mph), even more than the version fitted with the optional M Driver's Package that can reach "only" 189 mph (305 km/h). Other changes include a four-pipe stainless steel exhaust system, carbon fiber brakes, 21-inch Silverstone RS alloys and an adjustable RS coilover suspension.

Chevrolet Camaro gets tuned by Wimmer RS and Audiovox

Audiovox has enlisted Wimmer RS to create a bespoke Chevrolet Camaro to promote the company's Magnat audio systems. Looking bold and aggressive, the one-off model has a two-tone exterior with a ground effects package and 22-inch Oxigin wheels wrapped in Yokohama Advan Sport tires. The Camaro's cabin has always been a bit of a disappointment, so Wimmer added leather / Alcantara seats and an Audiovox infotainment system. The coupe has also been equipped with a 4400 watt Magnat audio system that has digital amplifiers and two 30cm subwoofers. For added performance, the 6.2-liter V8 engine was outfitted with a revised ECU, an optimized air intake and a stainless steel sports exhaust system. Thanks to these tweaks, the engine produces 451 HP (332 kW) and 596 Nm (439 lb-ft) of torque which enables the car to hit a top speed of 274 km/h (170 mph).

THE AUDIO-CAMARO by MAGNAT

Originally built as a competitor against the Ford Mustang since 1966, the Chevrolet Camaro by GM sees the light of the day in the fifth generation since 2009 in the Canadian Oshawa and it is a typical representative of the so-called pony cars, which exist parallel to the also American vehicle class of muscle cars.

The firm AUDIOVOX from Pulheim, whose brand Magnat is inextricably linked with German sound technology, has optimized this Camaro visibly and audibly and turned into an impressive show car. To increase the engine performance a performance kit by the firm Wimmer racing engineering has been utilized. Due to a software customization, an optimization of the air induction and a stainless steel exhaust system the Magnat Camaro achieves now a performance of 332 kW or 451 hp and has a maximum torque of 596 Nm (at 4,300 r / min). The maximum speed after this power increase is 274 km/h.

To get this performance onto the street, the Magnat Camaro rolls on a grandiose wheel-tire combination by Oxigin in 10x22 inches all around with Yokohama Advan Sport tires in 265/30ZR22 at the front and 295/25ZR22 at the rear axle. The height adjustable KW coilover suspension, Variant 1, combines a perfect sporty handling with everyday practicality.
The fitted as standard, but very spartan interior has been exclusively equipped with high quality leather and Alcantara by Magnat. The diamond pattern of the seats underlines the sportive character and upgrades the interior clearly.

The new Audiovox VME 9520NAV, with its extensive equipment, such as navigation, Bluetooth hands-free system, iPod / iPhone control, DVD and linkage to the steering wheel remote control, handles the powerful Magnat 4400Watt system. 2-way component front system, coaxial rear system, 2x 30cm subwoofer and digital amplifiers transform the interior into a concert hall. The firmly installed Ipod serves as a database of all music requests. Whether it is rock, pop or classical, any style of music is played back impressively. The illuminated show installation in the trunk completes this great project impressively.

 

Land Rover Defender Harris Tweed Edition by Kahn Design

Kahn Design has prepared another custom version of the Defender, this time featuring Harris Tweed fabric inserts. It is the only fabric in the world governed by its own Act of Parliament and it has found its way in this Defender. The “champagne of fabrics” has been hand-woven by using pure virgin wool, while the bespoke interior also has a piano black wood center dash surround, red rev counter, machined aluminum pedals, red seat belts, along with front and rear racing seats in black quilted leather with Harris Tweed inserts. Adorning the cabin is the Nappa leather and grey Alcantara with silver and red contrasting stitching. On the outside it gets a wide body kit with extended wheel arches, vented headlight surrounds, stainless steel front grille, LED headlights, clear front and rear light lenses and 18-inch 1983 Defender alloy wheels.

Press release:

Afzal Kahn insists the road is his catwalk and true to his mantra, the iconic British designer has combined what can only be described as the “the Champagne of fabrics” we are talking about the only fabric in the world governed by its own *Act of Parliament: Harris Tweed – with a descendent of the all-terrain vehicle developed in 1947 on the 250-acre Anglesey farm of joint Rover MD Maurice Wilks: the iconic Defender.
This is a fashion statement in every single sense of the word and the nearly-seventy-year-old original Defender, treated to a makeover by the principal British Designer under the guise of the Kahn expedition Vehicles Umbrella and aptly titled: The Defender Concept 17 Wide Body – Harris Tweed Prototype is proof Afzal Kahn is a keen supporter of investing in British Industry.
On paper, it should not work. However, Defender owners need not exercise caution, for Harris Tweed is a ‘noble’ fabric that is favoured by Afzal Kahn and is applied to many of his products.
To match the Iconic feel of the underlying car, the Kahn Defender is adorned with a brand new utilitarian and aggressive looking wide track arch kit which consists of lightweight extended wide wing wheel arches with integrated vents, stainless steel front grille with embossed Kahn feature, vented headlight surrounds, side vents with mesh, bonnet vents with mesh, clear rear light lenses, clear side repeaters, clear front light lenses, LED B6 headlights, Kahn prototype wing blades, Kahn prototype tailgate badge and Kahn oval tailgate badge.
The compulsory branded rear wheel cover ensures the driving position is luxurious and remains more responsive in complicated conditions and although it won't ever change its spots, Afzal Kahn has ensured the Kahn Defender concept 17 wide body exudes a certain charm which goes hand in hand with both fashion and all things automotive.
Hand woven by the islanders on the Isles of Harris, Lewis, Uist and Barra in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland, using local wool, Harris Tweed is one of the most traditional and rustic of fabrics and the fabric of choice for the most discerning of clients – and the interior of this vehicle transcends all things automotive because this is all about making a fashion statement!
The bespoke touch includes a red Kahn rev counter, red Kahn Churchill time clock, black piano wood centre dash surround, red seat belts, aluminum machined pedals, front and rear racing seats in black quilted nappa leather with Harris Tweed Inserts and silver contrast stitching, centre glove box in black quilted nappa leather and grey alcantara with red and silver contrast stitching, instrument binnacle in grey alcantara with red and silver contrast stitching, dashboard in black nappa leather and grey alcantara with red and silver contrast stitching, roof lining in grey alcantara with Harris Tweed inserts and red contrast stitching, sun visors in grey alcantara with Harris Tweed inserts and red contrast stitching and door trims in black quilted nappa leather and grey alcantara with silver contrast stitching.
However, we provide our customers with the opportunity to express one's individuality and they can have whatever they want. Afzal Kahn will add your personally requested luxury style and taste to the equation making you feel even more at home than you already are. He could, for example, design for you a vehicle with an interior the same shade of your living room, the choice is yours.
Kahn wheels sit perfectly on any vehicle, conveying the essence of the vehicle's identity.
