These supercars still have plenty of speed. Neither the Lexus LFA nor the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren 722 Edition Roadster is on the market anymore, but they still have impressive performance. In this video from Lovecars , Tiff Needel gets behind the wheel of the Lexus, and the owner is at the controls of the SLR for the drag race. The LFA remains a very special supercar in large part because of its naturally aspirated 4.8-liter V10 engine that can rev to 9,500 rpm. The result is one of the best-sounding road cars ever.

Kia signaled its desire to launch a gran turismo in September 2011 when it introduced the GT concept at the Frankfurt Motor Show. Now, after more than five years, the GT is finally ready for production and it’s going to be called “ Stinger ” in the same vein as the GT4 Stinger unveiled at NAIAS in 2014. It’s debuting today in Detroit with an appealing design pinned at Kia’s studio in Frankfurt and echoing the concept before it.

At 190.2 inches (4.8 meters) long and 73.6 inches (1.87 meters) wide, the Stinger is one of the biggest models in its segment and also has one of the longest wheelbases among competitors, stretching at … [Read more...] about 2018 Kia Stinger is a stylish gran turismo with biturbo V6 power
