G-Power BMW M3







The M Power and Alpina's are crazy, but this right here is vicious!!!!

The 2010 G-Power BMW M3 GT2 S is a good example. A competition-style version of the G-Power BMW M3 Tornado CS, its aero pieces are made from carbon fiber. It would take some serious gumption to drive this car on the open road outside the Nürburgring gates, because subtle it is not. It's worth a mention that this company isn't one for making outrageous disco cars. First and foremost, G-Power is an engineering firm that focuses on the mechanical side, and the only way to identify its 750-horsepower G-Power BMW M5, the world's fastest sedan now parked nearby in the Nürburgring paddock, is a handmade sign the G-Power engineers have put in the window.

There's not much that reminds you of a BMW M3. Thanks to a stripped-out interior, the use of lightweight, forged 20-inch Silverstone ClubSport wheels, a titanium exhaust system and lots of careful detailing, the GT2 S is some 300 pounds lighter. G-Power is working on an even lighter version that will reduce the car's weight by a further 200 pounds, which will put this M3 on the same footing as the Porsche 911 GT3 RS.

Meanwhile, the motivating force of this car is a 4.0-liter BMW V8 fitted with an ASA T1-522 centrifugal supercharger, an application also seen on the Alpina B6 GT3 racecar. A dual-flow carbon air intake, a cast-aluminum intercooler and a cold air box help the engine develop a blast of power with just 7.5 psi of boost, some 600 hp at 7,800 rpm and 427 pound-feet of torque at 5,300 rpm.

Pulse Feat Busta Rhymes- Sote Remix




So this is one of those random ones you don't expect...The group won an equivalent of American Idol or X-Factor in Nigeria..since then they have had reasonable success, and I must say I like this one.

They made history late last year, when they achieved a feat considered unprecedented in the Nigerian music industry with a collaboration with international hip hop music icon, Busta Rhymes, on Sote Remix.

The remix, which became an instant hit, was also performed by the band with the United States-born rap music star on the stage of the 2009 Star Mega Jam at Lagos and Abuja gigs.

2011 BMW ALPINA B7








I've always wondered if BMW would make an M7??? This right here is the answer....Alpina have been making fine tuned BMW's for a hot minute but this right here is nothing below astonishing

The N63 twin-turbo V-8 engine of the 750i has been developed with completely new electronics and a computer-assembled wiring loom. The turbos are enlarged and the exhaust system has been enhanced so as to reduce back pressure. The results of ALPINA’’s work is manifest both on paper and on track. 500 hp is achieved at 5,500 rpm along with a staggering 516 lbs-ft of torque from 3,000 to 4,750 rpm. The engine produces 113.8 hp/liter on its way to a 6,550 rpm redline.Harnessing all of this power to the ground are massive 21 inch, 20-spoke light alloy ALPINA wheels. Several decades ago, ALPINA discovered that the optimal design compromise between weight and strength is found in a 20 spoke wheel design. From that time forward ALPINA adopted these unique wheels across every vehicle they’ve produced.

Form follows function in the ALPINA design ethos, and this can be seen from every angle of the B7. A rear deck-lid spoiler is subtle in style but highly functional, alterations to suspension set up are felt from the first corner, powerful brakes halt the large car effortlessly and the powerful engine is nothing less than fear inspiring.
