Ferrari launches upgraded FXX-K track-only supercar

Ferrari debuted tweaks for the LaFerrari-based FXX-K supercar. Now named the FXX-K Evo, it's been given new aerodynamics and has a reduction in weight, making it the most extreme Ferrari ever to roll out of the Marranello factory. Ferrari's team reduced weight to under the 1,255kg of the previous car – that's less than many modern family hatchbacks. 1,036bhp is on tap from the electric motor and 6.3-litre V12.

The vehicle produces 640kg of downforce at 124mph – that's 23 per cent more than the previous FXX-K, and 75 per cent more than the LaFerrari. Ferrari will be offering the FXX-K Evo as either an upgrade package for the very small number of existing FXX-Ks (40 were built) or as a standalone model, also built in excruciatingly low numbers and by exclusive invitation.

Apollo Intensa Emozione supercar revealed

Supercar manufacturer Apollo has unveiled its Intensa Emozione, the name being Italian for “intense emotion.” The car was presented at a special event in Italy where Apollo confirmed that 10 examples will be sold, each at a price approaching $2.71m. Apollo is the Chinese-backed, Italian-based firm born out of the remains of Germany’s Gumpert. It first showed up at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show where it presented the 986-horsepower Arrow supercar.

Power comes from a naturally aspirated 6.3-liter V-12 pushing 780hp and 560 pound-feet of torque. The engine is paired to a 6-speed sequential shifter transmission and onto the rear wheels.

62 mph comes in 2.7 seconds on the way to a top speed of 208 mph.

A carbon monocoque chassis is used to maintain rigidity and save weight, while the front and rear subframes are also made out of composite. Combined the subframe and tub only weigh 105kg. The entire vehicle comes in at 1,250 kg.

The vehicle is said to produce up to 1,350kg of downforce at 300km/h. Inside creature comforts are sparse. The seats are mere cushions which have been stuck directly onto the carbon fiber tub with the pedals and steering wheel being adjustable.

2018 Lamborghini Huracan LP 610-4 Spyder

The Huracan Spyder is the convertible version of Lamborghini’s Huracan. The car uses a naturally aspirated 5.2-litre V10 engine that generates peak power of 610 hp @ 8,250 rpm. This is mated to a 7-speed dual clutch automatic transmission directing power to all four corners. The car uses a retractable hardtop instead of a softtop to provide better stability at high speeds and noise reduction.

The Spyder accelerates from 0-100 kmph in 3.4 seconds and boasts of a top speed of 324 kmph.

The Huracan Spyder is identical to the coupe from the waist down, with only the soft-top, the engine lid, and the rear haunches setting it apart.

The interior includes a redesigned dashboard and center console with new knobs and switches, a 12.3-inch TFT display with all the necessary info, and large amounts of carbon fiber and high-quality leather. The center console features two additional buttons. One to open the soft-top and one to lower the rear window.

Base price for the Lamborghini Huracan LP 610-4 Spyder is something around $267,545.

Dodge Demon too tame? - Hennessy has 'The Exorcist'

Dodge confounded all expectations at the New York International Auto Show with an 840hp street-legal drag car called the Demon. Capable of hitting 60mph in 2.3 seconds and covering the standing quarter mile in 9.65 seconds, its performance levels border on witchcraft. Hennessy's The Exorcist has a totally overhauled engine complete with ported cylinder heads, new valves, a new camshaft, a high-flow supercharger, plus new exhaust system. That juices the car's output to 1000bhp from the factory standard 640bhp.

The Hennessey Exorcist will be strictly limited to 100 individually numbered examples.

The car is available with a 6-speed manual or 10-speed automatic. The base cost for The Exorcist upgrade is $55,000. The optional drag pack includes a pair of 20 inch wheels with 315/30-20 Nitto drag radial tires, drive shaft upgrade, floor jack and tool kit at a cost of $8,995.

VLF Force 1 V10 supercar

The end of Dodge Viper won’t affect VLF Automotive’s plans for the Force 1 V10 supercar, which shares its components. Henrik Fisker, a partner and head of design at the boutique car company, said VLF has access to enough Vipers. VLF plans to produce no more than 50 of the $268,500 cars, and recently started deliveries to well heeled customers. The Force 1 was unveiled at the Detroit auto show in 2016.

The Force 1 features an 8.4-liter V-10 engine pushing 745 hp. 0 to 60 mph is 3 seconds onto a top speed of 218 mph. The Force 1 comes standard with a 6-speed manual transmission with an optional 6-speed automatic with paddle shifters.

The Force 1's carbon-fiber body was designed by Fisker, who was responsible for the design of the BMW Z8 and Aston Martin DB9, among others.
