Corvette Callaway SledgeHammer: In 1988, this car accelerated to 410 km / h.

In 1988, racer and entrepreneur Reeves Callaway ordered a Chevrolet Corvette and heavily redesigned it to get the most out of the car.

The modification was named «Corvette Callaway SledgeHammer» and soon set a world speed record, accelerating to 254.76 mph (410 km / h).

The other day this legendary two-door was put up for sale — a corresponding announcement appeared on the Bring a Trailer portal.

Outside, the record-breaking car attracts attention with its Silver Metallic body paint.

The interior remains completely stock, which means it has all the amenities, including automatic climate control, a Delco Bose cassette player, electrically adjustable seats and electric windows.

Usually, in pursuit of records, automakers, on the contrary, abandon all of this, but Callaway did differently.

Stylish retro coupe RML Short Wheelbase inspired by the classic Ferrari 250.

British engineering company RML Group, headquartered in Northamptonshire, has introduced a retro-coupe called RML Short Wheelbase.

Development of the model began three years ago, while in the process the British specialists were guided by the classic 1959 Ferrari 250 GT SWB. The latter is reminded here of the similar proportions of the carbon fiber body.

According to the developers, the salon of the retro coupe is quite spacious, and even two tall riders (up to two meters) can be comfortable in it.

Of the equipment, it is worth noting air conditioning, a multimedia system with a navigator, as well as electric seat adjustment. The RML Short Wheelbase is 4,264 mm long and 1,954 mm wide.

Thus, in terms of dimensions, the novelty turned out to be somewhat larger than the mentioned Italian model.

The main units and components in the RML Group were borrowed from the 1996 Ferrari 550 Maranello. In particular, the British retro coupe received an Italian 5.5-liter aspirated V12 with 485 hp. (568 Nm) and a six-speed manual.

Bugatti Chiron Hermes.

Unique in the world: Bugatti Chiron from the French fashion house Hermes.

Iranian businessman Manny Khoshbin (Manny Khoshbin) owns a collection of expensive and exotic cars, which was recently replenished with a unique copy of the Bugatti Chiron hypercar.

This two-door is called «Chiron habille par Hermes», which is translated from French as «Chiron in a Hermes suit.» From the name it becomes clear that experts from the Parisian fashion house Hermes took part in its creation.

At the suggestion of the latter, the hypercar received a light beige body paint «craie» («chalk») and bright red brake calipers.

The designers also developed alloy wheels and a number of other components for the car. For example, this Bugatti Chiron boasts a special design of the radiator grille, made in the form of miniature letters «H». The latter are designed to resemble the Hermes logo.

Plus, this version of the model received a monogram with the initials of Ettore Bugatti, the founder of Bugatti.

It can be seen on the same grille, as well as on the rims and stern. Separately, it is worth noting the modification wing, which has a drawing in the form of prancing stallions, which again is a reference to the emblem of the Parisian fashion house.

Range Rover Evoque Bronze Collection 2021.

Range Rover Evoque 2021: second generation model.

Outside, the new body of the second generation Range Rover Evoque 2 is not so easy to distinguish from its predecessor, but if you look closely, you can notice a narrower diode head optics, a modified radiator grille, different taillights, as well as completely different bumpers.

The company decided to abandon the three-door modification of Evoke, the demand for which was quite low, but on the five-door the roof was now made even more sloping, plus the inclination of the windshield was increased.

It’s nice that the car has retained the widened wheel arches, and now they have been deprived of the black protective linings. The surest way to quickly spot the new 2021 Range Rover Ewok is to look at its doorknobs.

If they are recessed into the body, then you have a fresh car in front of you. And in the top-end configurations, the off-road vehicle was equipped with 21-inch rims (in the base of 17 ″, and before the maximum they were 20 inches).

Inside, the driver and front passenger are greeted by the kingdom of LCD displays, of which there are three — two 10.0-inch screens on the front panel are part of the Touch Pro Duo multimedia complex (supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto), and the third 12.3 ″ is fully electronic instrument cluster.
