Nostalgic HMC Hidalgo Blends Classic Styling With Modern Technology
We could hardly believe our eyes when we saw Helvetic Motor Company’s (HMC) Hidalgo. What started with a Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG has been converted to what you’re seeing now. An interesting blend of old school styling with new school technology. We’re not huge fans of the odd paint scheme, but the overall aesthetics of the…
Twin-Turbo Ferrari F430 Spider from Underground Racing Throws Down 1,000-hp [video]
Sometimes it’s hard not to be jealous at those lucky enough to own exotics from Ferrari or Lamborghini. It’s natural, we understand. But we gotta say, it’s extra tough when we see a Ferrari owner that’s able to take their F430 over to Underground Racing, pick out a twin turbo kit and throw down 1,000-hp….
Misha Designs GTM Porsche Turbo Aero Kit Delivers Gemballa-Like Style
Misha Designs has mostly specialized in Porsche spoilers in the past but we’re guessing given the fairly decent success they’ve had with their Mercedes-Benz SL project, the company decided to dabble in producing a full kit for the Porsche 997. Well, we’re finding the result a little less than stellar, but part of it might…
Expression Motorsport Goes Wide On Mercedes CL65 AMG
Now that Mercedes-Benz has released full details on the 2011 CL63 and CL65 AMG, we aren’t surprised that companies are quick to announce products for the pre-facelifted version.

Heico Teases Naughty Volvo S60 Mods
Volvo isn’t exactly at the top of every car builder’s wish list. But over the years we’ve seen some custom Volvos that truly impressed us.

Hamann BMW 5-Series is Predictably Stylish
The old saying “If it’s not broken, don’t fix it,” rings true with Hamann. Over the last decade and change, we’ve been able to almost predict how Hamann’s styling packages would look on new BMW chassis. While it may not be a bad thing, it’s worth noting that there isn’t anything groundbreaking or original (in…

Hamann Tweaks the Near-Perfect Mercedes SLS AMG
Instead of adorning Mercedes-Benz‘s lovely SLS AMG with a traditional body kit full of lip spoilers, Hamann decided not to mess with the SLS AMG’s natural good looks, but rather bolt-on some larger components to make it stand out. On all four corners are larger 21-inch Design Edition Race “Anodized” wheels with 9-inch width in…

G-Power Builds 900-HP BMW X6 M
Yeah, yeah deep down inside we are probably in love with BMW‘s X6 M even though we still think it’s a confusing platform.

Russian Tuner Top Car Builds a Customized Lumma X6 M: We Approve
This isn’t the first time we’ve shown off Lumma’s CLR X650 M, but we felt obliged to post this one up because of just how different it looks compared to the previous black and white variants.

Carlsson Tunes Mercedes-Benz E-Class Cabriolet
Well this is really no surprise from Carlsson. Having already released a tuning package for the sedan, we knew a Cabriolet version wouldn’t be far off.
