Check out the latest Wheelsandmore development, a stunning performance package for the Mercedes SLR McLaren. This high-end kit consists of a handmade exhaust unit, new set of forged lightweight alloy rims, and a Wheelsandmore power increase from tuning the ECU. The performance numbers of the Mercedes SLR were boosted to 730 horsepower and 920 lb-ft of torque, a significant bump from the factory 650 hp and 800 lb-ft of torque. In addition to the mods under the hood, the wheels you see here are 20-inch 6Sporz 3-piece rims wrapped in high performance tires measuring 255/30/20 in the front, and 305/25/20 at the rear. Also, exclusively for the Mercedes SLR McLaren 722 Edition, Wheelsandmore tuning specialists offer an extra light aluminum racing coilover, which cuts 30% of the stock weight coilovers.

Check out this Porsche Panamera look-a-like with a custom front face, side, and rear, but based off a Nissan 350Z Roadster. This car was featured at the Tokyo Auto Salon, and reported from the guys at carscoop. At first many assume it is a Porsche Boxster with an extreme body kit and Porsche Panamera front, however when you look closer you will see similarities to the Nissan 350Z. The interior of this car is what really draws the most attention, looking like it just snowed inside with everything white. See the video after the jump.

This Bentley replica doesn’t look half bad, based off a Chrysler Sebring, which seems like a decent car for building a replica of a Continental GTC. It’s definitely better than the old Pontiac Fiero’s people are using to build Ferrari and Lamborghini replicas. Was listed on eBay and the auction has already ended, with no bids unfortunately, so we’re not sure if it will ever be completed. However, for the money, this Bentley replica seems like a good car investment if someone can finish it to look exactly like the real deal. The seller claims that he will be finishing the carpet, adding a new windscreen, door mirrors, and a custom dual exhaust with real Bentley tips. Pictures also show authentic Bentley interior pieces, but a dashboard will need to be custom made to fit these. Then it will need the seats upholstered, a new convertible top, sound system, and navigation to make it look 100% genuine.
