Remember the Ferrari 599 GTO unveiling? It took place just a little over a week ago but apparently that is about enough time to sell nearly 600 cars for the Prancing horse.

Yes, this is not a joke, the fastest road going Ferrari sold out in just a few days. Apparently in the process Ferrari released an online car configurator for it but I’m suspecting that was a bit of a useless effort.

This model will be relatively exclusive as Ferrari will only make 599… 599 GTOs so just the clients with the upmost interest in driving pleasure will be able to get hold of one of these. Also clients with the upmost sizes in wallets will be able to get one of these as the asking price for a 599 GTO is around half a million dollars.

Looks like before her debut at Geneva Auto Show 2010 Ferrari 599 Hybrid gets a little publicity on the internet, so there are the first photos with Ferrari 599 Hybrid. Behind this project lays the experience accumulated in Formula 1with the Kinetic Energy Recovery Systems (KERS) so the hybrid mode will be built around this.

This Ferrari 599 Hybrid will not only use KERS for better performance, the main objective of KERS in this case is to reduce the emissions consumption. So in conclusion it will be used a more powerful electrical engine which will take over the V12 engine with internal combustion, and batteries with greater storage capacity.

We already get used with G-Power’s tuning capabilities, we already know that they can make an engine almost twice powerful, well, now G-Power has a gift for those who waited BMW M7. If you are a success business man, the proper car for you is BMW 760Li of course, having a V12 bi-turbo engine developing 544 horsepower it satisfies your adrenaline needs, but maybe you want something more and for that you contact G-Power.

If you look at the exterior of the BMW 7 Series Storm your first observation will be that carbon and Kevlar which makes the car look very aggressive. The spoilers are cool and efficient too, the front spoiler has big ventilation holes which benefits of great air intakes.

We have here the new Aston Martin Rapide which comes with the same design style as they used before. I like the body very much because it has very smooth lines and with excitement I tell you that this Aston Martin Rapide is already the title contender for the most successful luxurious coupe with four doors.

If I have to choose three word to describe this Aston Martin Rapide they would be Power, Beauty and Soul. First car when this car was seen was in the year 2005 at Detroit Auto Show in the concept stage. Regarding to that concept the series model had a few minor changes and from the mechanical point of view is based on “VA Architecture” platform.
