The all new Audi RS6 Avant by AVUS Performance may not have the most aggressive look, however for a station wagon, its power numbers speak for them self. Naming it ‘White Power‘ might not have been the best title for the white RS6 because the German tuners are now receiving some racial controversy over the name. They recently released an apology statement saying it was a translation mix up by their editors and no racial harm was intended. Anyway, for a wagon the Audi RS6 Avant already has some decent characteristics coming from the factory with 580 hp and 650 Nm of torque. AVUS Performance still felt there was room for improvement so they installed a Sportec 2.7″ in diameter high performance exhaust system, racing catalysts, and re-programmed the ECU. Which increased the horsepower to 700, and torque to 800Nm, with an astonishing 3.9 second 0-100 km/h.

German car tuning company G-Power delivered the power with this BMW M6, breaking the world record for fastest sedan at a top speed of 370 km/h or 231 mph. Naming it the Hurricane CS, this is the fastest BMW coupe in the world with a powerful twin supercharged V10 engine delivering 750 hp and 590 ft-lbs of torque. To get these astounding numbers out of a BMW, the engineers at G-Power had to install belt driven ASA T1-316 superchargers, and forged pistons from Mahle were used to reduce compression. The pistons from Mahle are exactly the same weight as the stock pistons, however significantly stronger to handle the extra boost from the superchargers. To optimize the V10 engine, a remapping of the ECU was needed for the superchargers.

Undergoing a complete make over, this Porsche Carrera GT has been modified by the Austrian car tuning company Koenigseder. Nicknaming it the Devil, Koenigseder was able to give this Carrera a nice aggressive look with a new body kit. The kit you see here is a completely unique body kit that transforms this Porsche, starting with new bumpers all around, and ending with air intakes coming from the roof. It is still a Porsche Carrera GT under all the exterior mods, and it still holds its performance numbers under the hood. But if you look at the fancy additions to the exterior, you can tell this kit from Koenigseder doesn’t come cheap, and we have the prices for you.

Japanese car tuning company Fabulous usually customizes luxury sedans in the JDM market, however they went with the exotic Ferrari F430 this time and I’d say they did a fabulous job. With most of the vehicles they modify, exterior styling such as body kits, large diameter wheels, and suspension including hydraulics is their specialty. The kit you see here consists of fiber reinforced and carbon fiber pieces installed, and is available for any Ferrari F430 ’04 and up. It includes a new front bumper with spoiler attached, side skirts, a new rear wing with diffuser installed underneath, and also custom fitted exhaust ports.

Tuning company Lumma Design knows how to get car enthusiasts thrilled when they released this package for the very popular BMW 3-series. The owner Horst Lumma personally guarantees that all cars tuned by his company are in the best hands and that you will be satisfied with your modifications. For this particular model, Lumma decided to convert this average BMW E92 3-series and make it look like the powerful M3 model. To start it off, the front fender was redesigned using composite fiber material while keeping OEM standards; they added original M3 air ducts and installed LED turn signals. The mirrors received carbon fiber caps to give it a racing look, and the front bumper has carbon fiber inserts in the grille as well.
