Porsche tuner Gemballa has fixed more special features which are of course not necessary but are included so that the Carrera GT appears more attractive and functional.

These features are added to its already existing contemptible Carrera GT super car to produce a new Mirage GT Gold Edition.

The Mirage boasts of quite a lot of carbon fiber accessories and Gemballa has increased the already extensive power from the 5.7-litre V10 to give out 670bhp.

This results in the car going from 0-60mph in an awesome 3.7 seconds which is 0.2 seconds quicker than the factory edition. Top speed has been increased by 3mph which will now deliver a maximum of 208mph.

The Mirage has gold particularization on the wheels, air inlet, wing, back diffuser, boot lid, brake calipers, back end brake air outlets, fly mirrors and engine bay.

On the interior side the vents, air con controls and gear knob are also gold detailed.

BMW has stated that it is scheduling a GT edition of its 3-Series hatch which is named as the 335i. This new edition is planned to be along the same lines as its 5-Series Grand Turismo.

The GT will be established on the new 3-Series saloon which will be unveiled in 2011. Like the 5 GT the 335i will be a form of coupe/SUV intersect with a elevated ride-height stance and inclined rear end with rear door.
It may probably be all-wheel drive and will have a variety of 4 cylinder and 6 cylinder engines. The design will be similar to the X6 with short overhangs, marked wheel arches and flashy alloy wheels.

The BMW car will be offered in a 4 seat and a more functional 5 seat arrangement and it will be supplied by an array of BMW’s most recent range of turbo and diesel engines.

Citroen’s outstanding GT super car notion is to make its first appearance in UK on the 1.16-mile Goodwood Hill during this year’s Festival of Speed taking place between July 3 and 5.

This demo run is not the first time for the GT by Citroën as the car has finished laps of honour at both the Nürburgring and Le Mans 24-hour survival races.

The car had made its first appearance at the Paris Motor Show in October 2008. Citroën and Polyphony, architect of the driving replication game Gran Turismo5 on the PlayStation 3, revealed the imitation of the digital vehicle and impressed the crowd with its innovative looks and high-tech technology.

The size of the car is almost 5 metres long (4.96m), and is only a metre more in height which is 1.09m. It has a big coil of windscreen that falls into the roof and on the rear mobile surface.
