Nissan 370Z goes from 0 to 60 in the same time as the BMW M3

omarrana submitted on 12/2/2008 Official AutoSpies Timestamp: 11:06:19 AM

The other day during Thanksgiving dinner a couple of us were arguing about the 0 to 60 time of the new 332-hp 2009 Nissan 370Z as reported by CARandDRIVER. The automotive enthusiast magazine said that the new Z goes from rest to 60 in 5 seconds which seemed a bit awkward to us since the new Z is smaller, lighter and more powerful this year. Read More

Maserati GranTurismo receives new Edition Race wheels from Hamann

tryme submitted on 11/16/2008 Official AutoSpies Timestamp: 7:20:23 PM

As you may know already the wheels are maybe the most important thing at a car because they improve the looks even if the vehicle is a total mess. In order to sustain these words Hamann, the great German tuner revealed a new set of wheels for the Maserati GranTurismo and what should we say…the result is remarcable (of course the car wasn’t a total mess…).

Maserati GranTurismo by Project Kahn - Photoshop Edition…

tryme submitted on 11/15/2008 Official AutoSpies Timestamp: 6:31:10 PM

Don’t get us wrong! We love what Project Kahn does to the cars but this time it seems that the tuner made a mistake. Usually when you present a new set of wheels for a Maserati, you take that vehicle, install the new wheels and then send it to a photo shoot… We understand the economic crisis affects everyone but from Project Kahn we expect more quality and not just a modified photo in Photoshop! So what the tuner presented here is the new set of 20 inch Kahn RS-V alloy wheels for the Maserati GranTurismo S. Read More

Stud Or Dud? BMW Reveals M1 Homage Will Enter Production

Agent009 submitted on 5/29/2008 Official AutoSpies Timestamp: 10:24:44 AM

The July issue of CAR magazine will reveal later today that BMW has given the green light the M1 Homage Concept to enter production. While the radical design stays close to home on replicating the essence of the classic M1, it just makes me wonder if it strays too far from BMW tried and trued philosophy of design. Read More
