Here is the latest car tuning project from G-Power, the new BMW M5 Hurricane GS. All of the G-Power Hurricane cars have been impressive, but this M5 holds the title for the world’s fasts LPG (liquid petroleum gas) powered car. Based of the BMW M5 E60, the Hurricane GS features a SK II package consisting of the LPG conversion, twin ASA superchargers, water-cooled intercooler, and a remapped ECU. With these modifications the custom 5.0-liter V10 power plant produces 660 PS and 650 Nm of torque. The amazing performance numbers allow the BMW M5 Hurricane to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.6 seconds, hit 200 km/h in 11.4 seconds, and accomplish an overall top speed of 333 km/h to set a world record.

Check out this modified Nissan GTR R35 with a roadster look put together by a member of Devianart named degraafm. He combined a picture of a tuned coupe version with larger wheels and extended wheel arches, then chopped the top to make it a convertible. However, it looks like an additional top is not possible with the setup, yet still holds the targa-type style seen in the photo. I think it looks pretty good, and maybe Nissan should consider this option for the 2012 models.
