WEITEC Ford Focus RS

WEITEC found success with their lime green Volkswagen project back in May, and have now released their latest tuning work on the 2010 Ford Focus RS, which looks very similar. The suspension specialists decided to customize this Focus RS with a new range of high performance products from their tuning company. Lowering springs, coilover suspension system, and sport shock absorbers are just a few of the new products WEITEC has to offer to the customer. With the addition of their SPORT F Springs, the Ford Focus rides 30 mm closer to the ground, giving it a much sportier look while improving the handling. These springs are reasonably priced at 174 Euros, but the tuners didn’t stop there.

MTE VW Golf IV R32

The VW Golf IV R32 is an older model loved by many as the perfect tuning project. With a sure surplus of fans, this car has been one many have pushed to gain every ounce of power. The latest in the challenge, the German tuning specialist MTE, gave their Golf R32 IV a mean military-themed camouflage look to fit their BiTurbo2. With the stock R32, you might expect a 3.2-liter V6 pushing 241bhp with 320Nm (236 lb-ft) torque. After the tuning team over at MTE made a few upgrades and adjustments, they were able to achieve 790hp and 1,200Nm (885lb-ft) out of the Volkswagen Golf. That’s about 500hp more than MTE’s BiTurbo1. How you might ask?

Gold Wrapped Audi R8

Gold Wrapped Audi R8

Here is an Audi R8 wrapped in gold car wrap, and we have seen plenty of these wraps making their way onto modified cars lately. The Nissan GT-R wrapped in chrome, white, and matte black was a hit previously, but now it seems like we have people wrapping cars in anything they can find. So what’s hotter than your typical matte white or black car wrap? Well, some owners would probably consider the rich color of gold like this owner did, when this Audi R8 was seen in Moscow, Russia. But, they aren’t the first. Some gold cars already out there include the gold Ferrari Enzo, a gold Bugatti Veyron, and a gold Hamann Ferrari 599 GTB. Just don’t mistake this car wrap for real gold, since one gold Porsche was stolen in Moscow because the thieves probably thought it was worth much more.
