It's the new Mrecedes-Benz C-Class! You know, the one that's supposed to be compact and more common-man oriented. Well, this here is a yet another departure from that idea.
The latest C-Class is longer and wider than its predecessor by 95 mm and 40 mm respectively. That's 4686 mm in length from headlight to taillight and 1810 mm from side to side. The total increase in length is mainly due to the 80 mm longer wheelbase. That's why there's acres of leg-room inside for the rear passengers.

The Nardo Ring test track, borrowing its name from the town of Nardo Italy because of the relative proximity of the two, is a 7.8 mile circle track with a constant bank. So, due to its specific nature no car is truly capable of reaching its top speed. We don't want to get all technical. Let's just say that because

X-Tomi Design has published a nice rendering picture of 2014 BMW M3 Touring. Although BMW has never created M3 Touring, we can hope for such model.
Still, an M3 Touring is possible, because it will go directly against the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Estate and the Audi RS4 Avant.
The new M3 and M4 are powered by a 3.0 liter TwinPower Turbo Inline six-cylinder – 431HP (317 kW) at 5,500RPM and 550Nm (406 lb-ft) at 1,850RPM. The engine is mated to a 6-speed manual gearbox as standard. 0-100 km/

Have you ever tried to decipher The Maybach 57 S? The number 57 stands for the total length of the luxury leviathan in decimetres (570 cm or approx 224 inches). It serves as a comprehensive distinction from the Maybach 62 which... well, you do the math. What about the S? Being a Daimler brand, you'd think it's a reference to the S-Class, but it isn't. S stands for “Special” and by extension it implies a 6.0-liter V12 engine as opposed to a 5.5 one.
What happens when we add “Kahn” to the equat

Alright, picture the following: a couple of years ago you bought a Toyota GT86. At the time it was an affordable RWD car with the right weight distribution and enough power to go sideways. An obvious choice for a gearhead, because that's essentially the formula reserved for supercars. But now you find yourself in the position of wanting more. Not much more though. Just that extra bit of something to spice things up.
How about a tune up then? Let's see. Oh, Romeo Ferraris here might have what you are looking for!
