1120 bhp 9ff rocket, the latest news, Countach QV and the spectacular Tracta ...
Dear Ultimatecarpage.com visitor,
German Porsche tuner 9ff plan to take their already bonkers 987 bhp GT9 supercar one step further. For those customers who desperately need more than 1000 bhp, they are working on this GT9-R. In addition to getting a power upgrade, the new 9ff also features a brand new body kit with front and rear spoilers. Development is still under way, but the German company hopes to show the finished product in Essen at the end of the month. Also benefiting from some additional horses is the Bentley Azure T. The stylish drop top has 50 more horses compared to the standard Azure and could be the last new model using the classic V8 engine.
At the newly revived Abarth marque, the 100th birthday of company founder Carlo Abarth was celebrated this Saturday. The site was the Torino Esposizioni, which currently houses the exhibition "From 0 to 100", which includes some of Abarth's finest products. The festivities also included the unveiling of the limited edition 500 "Da 0 a 100" of which just 101 will be build.
The recently established FIA GT4 class will see two new machines join the fun in 2009. Aston Martin will replace the "N24" based on the old Vantage with the Vantage GT4, which is based on the current 4.7 litre version. Lotus will challenge the likes of Donkervoort and KTM in the supersport category with this 2-Eleven GT4.
Lamborghini's Countach remained in production for almost two decades during which it was constantly updated. The biggest development came in 1985 when the LP5000 QV was introduced. It was powered by an all new four valve version of the familiar V12 engine, which produced 455 bhp.
Today front wheel drive is very common on most small and mid-sized machines. Amazingly it took almost forty years after the first car was built before a production car used front wheel drive. It was the little known French Tracta marque that pioneered the system. At Pebble beach we ran into this spectacular Tracta E Henri Le Moine Coupe, which reason enough to tell the story of this ill-fated, but important car.
