Throw Back Commercial

We are taking it back a bit, about a decade, to the year 2000 when BMW decided to introduce an even better and faster sports sedan known as the (E39 body style) M5. Over the years the M5 has evolved from its historic roots recently sporting a naturally aspirated V8 producing 400hp and the outgoing, but infamous, high-revving V10 that produced 500hp. Now upon the horizon we see evidence of a twin turbo V8 with about 600hp (rumored 2012 BMW M5). The video below is just one moment in time where we all became bug-eyed from BMW’s 400hp V8 powerplant in one of the most sought-after sports sedans on the planet during the early 2000’s. The video below is an epic car commercial, one of the best around, of the E39 BMW M5. Enjoy!

Intense Racing Moments.

They go at it down under. Some of the best racing I have ever seen, very intense. 

Veteran Holden driver Jamie Whincup tries to hold off rookie Shane Van Ginsbergern during the closing laps of The Gold Coast 600. It’s bumper-rubbing, corner-slicing V8 racing at its best.

Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale

The Trident marque has catered to a more luxury-oriented market than the raw performance of its big brother on the Prancing Horse. But that doesn’t mean they can’t push the envelop just a little, and that’s what you’re looking at here.

Called the MC Stradale, this ultimate version of the GranTurismo bridges the gap between road and race models in the same way the revolutionary Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale did in its day. To get there, Maserati’s tuned the chassis, aero and engine to more closely resemble the levels attained on racing versions like the MC Trofeo spec racer and the GT4 competition model.

Modena claims increased downforce without a the combersum increase of drag, while the engine has been boosted to 450 horsepower as compared to the 430 in the existing GranTurismo S. That’s all Maserati has released at this point, read the press release after the video and check out the images in the gallery below.

Specs:
Engine V8, 4691 cc
Maximum power 450 bhp @ 7000 rpm
Maximum torque 510 Nm @ 4750 rpm
Top speed 301 km/h
Acceleration 0-100 km/h 4,6 sec

While taxpayers are flipping the bill to keep America’s auto industry afloat, an undercover investigation shows illegal activities by Chrysler employees who have enjoyed nearly $15 billion in government money.

 Dozens of autoworkers in Detroit were caught on camera drinking beer and smoking marijuana before heading to work at the Chrysler plant that President Obama praised in a speech just two months ago.

  An exclusive investigation by MyFoxDetroit showed workers at Chrysler’s Jefferson North Assembly Plant in Detroit, Mich., drinking beer and smoking joints while on a half-hour lunch break at a nearby park.

  The investigation — conducted over several weeks and based on tips from workers at the plant — outraged the auto giant’s top executives who reportedly called the behavior “totally unacceptable.”
