Thanks to GTspirit, we can show you what is probably the most expensive Ferrari 16M on the market today. This tuning project features a complete carbon fiber body commissioned by a previous owner from the Ferrari bodywork specialist Carrozzeria Zanasi. The 16M is now for sale at Ferrari Beverly Hills for an insane $650,000. All the exterior panels have been manufactured in carbon fibre, but is that amount of money really worth it? For over half a million dollars you could almost buy three of these cars, one to crash, one to drive, and one to store away forever. However, if you must own the very best, then this Ferrari F430 16M would be the perfect match, because I find it hard to believe anyone will duplicate this ride.

The Canadian car tuning company SR Auto Group, also known as SR Autos have released this upgrade kit for the Audi S5 called the Typhon. Not to be mistaken with the latest G-Power BMW Typhoon project, this Audi received both styling and performance improvements. At the exterior level, the S5 was hooked up with body pieces from Rieger, including a front spoiler lip and rear diffuser both finished in dry carbon fiber. The most dramatic customizations to this Audi S5 include the matte black foil wrap and new set of ADV1 5.1 lightweight alloy rims also finished in matte black. They come wrapped in high performance tires, while the tuners moved on to engine bay aiming to increase horsepower.

Everyone in the automotive world is still waiting for the Ferrari Enzo successor, and Radovan Varicak has displayed these concept pictures of what the new F70 could look like. We are uncertain if the car will be called the Enzo again, but we do know that code name for this project is the Ferrari F70. From the factory it should produce around 700 bhp with the V8 twin-turbo, while only weighing around 1,200 kg. The estimated acceleration time from 0 to 100 km/h will be under 3 seconds, while the high end Ferrari will top out around 360 km/h. Now these are only the renderings from Radovan, but expect to hear about a full press release once Ferrari finishes the design details.

The tuners at Oakley Design have released the updates for the Ferrari 458 Italia package that will increase the production to seven cars, instead of the previously planned five. High demand for this unique Ferrari car has pushed the tuning company to make a couple more, and each will hold an individual numbered plaque. A new carbon fiber front spoiler lip was installed, which increased the downforce by 25kg after some wind tunnel testing. A rear spoiler added an additional 23kg to the rear axle, and both of these test were completed at 150 mph. Other exterior modifications include the Oakley Design carbon fiber roof panel, mirror covers, and engine cover below the rear window glass.

The tuning folks at Anderson Germany have spiced up the Ferrari California for those looking for a more custom look. This Italian hardtop convertible carries a 4.3-liter V8 under the hood, developing 460 hp from the factory. Anderson Germany tuned it up to raise the horsepower by 55 for a total of 515 horsepower, thanks to a re-calibrated ECU and valve controlled high performance exhaust system. Three different sound modes for the exhaust are available via remote control in the cockpit. Extra performance enhancements to the Ferrari California include electronically adjustable dampers to lower the ride height by 35 mm or raise the car 40 mm. A new set of alloy wheels were also installed with the rim painted the same color as the car, and come wrapped in high performance tires.
