Epic is the right word for this Audi RS6 Avant build coming to us from a customer in Japan. Namely this build was revolving around an Alcon Superkit for this vehicle as the six-piston brake calipers stopping a 400x36mm disc was the perfect setting for an epic showcase of engineering and design from our company. Getting away with a monoblock set of wheels with a concave look and clearing those ginormous brakes was the well accomplished goal.

Customer is well satisfied with a set of D2FORGED MB1 wheels installed in 21×9″ Shallow Concave Front / 21×10.5″ Deep Concave Rear, all finished in a brushed aluminum finish. Given the amazing looks MB1′s give to the car, they also allow it to stay a perfect sleeper, ready to take on anything and everything on the road with it’s powerful twin-turbo V10 under the hood. Perfect matchup of clean style, making this one of our favorite projects this month.

As stated earlier, owner is well pleased with the setup so he decided to send us a couple of snaps he took a few days ago while enjoying his ride. We expect to get a full photoshoot of this car done in the near future, so try not to salivate too much over these teasers.

D2Forged is perfecting 997TTs one set at a time! Our latest multispoke creation is what this gorgeous red 911 is rolling on and D2FORGED CV13′s will be a prominent choice for any Porsche or other supercar owners in the forthcoming years.

Another batch of epicness has arrived, a 2013 Sakhir Orange BMW M6 Convertible, dropped tight on a set of our CV8 concave wheels. Definitely one of the best colors BMW has released in their existence and a fitting set of rims was all it took to make this ride stand out as one seriously amazing build.

Sundays are a great time to relax and bring the cars out, and by relax we mean lay down some rubber at the Big Power Racing! Each year BPR hosts its annual BBQ where customers and enthusiasts alike bring their cars out to meet up and of course show off a little. BPR provided the food and venue at their shop out in Long Island while the spectators provided the action on near by streets. The sheer horse power in attendance could not be simply added up, but rather displayed on the pavement. Through out the course of the day, the asphalt grew considerably darker as muscle cars and a few imports tore up their tires to relieve a little stress and provide some awesome photo opportunities for about 350 on-lookers.

D2FORGED’s presence was strong with several Corvettes and Challengers proving what they had under the hood by laying down some serious rubber.

It’s got 650hp of Novitec Supercharging, 21×13.5″ of D2FORGED Custom Crafted Goodness, 355mm of Pirelli Gift wrapping, widest ever on a GT … what can only be described as the toughest Maserati Granturismo out there, this build will set the benchmark for all future wheel setups and projects.

Just a regular Tuesday night for most people consists of getting home from work, figuring out what is for dinner, catching a movie on tv, and knocking out by 11pm. Here is a picture story of our Tuesday night out at Toshi Living Room and Pent House for a night in Nema’s Boom Boom Room. Enjoy the photos:

McLaren Automotive has released the final numbers, images and information relating to its phenomenal McLaren P1™ ahead of a global reveal in just a few days at the 83rd International Geneva Motor Show.

The race-inspired Instant Power Assist System (IPAS) gives the McLaren P1™ astonishing performance. Zero to 100km/h will take less than 3 seconds, zero to 200 km/h under 7 seconds, and zero to 300 km/h will be achieved in no more than 17 seconds. Putting that into perspective, that’s 5 seconds faster than the legendary McLaren F1 road car. Top speed is electronically limited to 350 km/h.

McLaren has been engaging with potential customers actively in the last few months to get their views on the McLaren P1™, about the car’s styling. Their unanimous verdict on the styling was not to change the car presented last September in Paris. So unusually, the McLaren P1™ has translated to production form with very little change. In fact just one, the addition of LTR ducts ahead of each of the front wheels to further aid cooling and optimise downforce.

McLaren has closely monitored demand so as to maintain exclusivity, and announced a production number of just 375 units – a figure that will ensure the McLaren P1™ will remain a rarity and, if spotted on the road, an unforgettable sight.

McLaren has also announced that the car will cost from £866,000 on the road with a specification that fully equips the car for both road and track use. The company prides itself on designing performance cars that their owners can use regularly so the McLaren P1™ comes comprehensively equipped as standard with an array of colour and trim alternatives from which the customer will be able to choose as well as visible carbon fibre in the cabin. The options list is limited to only bespoke content that a customer might wish to add through McLaren Special Operations, and fitted luggage.

As already announced, the McLaren P1™ will have the combined force of two highly-efficient powerplants, offering the optimum mix of superb throttle response, day-to-day drivability and top speed. A mid-mounted 3.8-litre twin-turbo V8 petrol engine is substantially enhanced featuring, for example, larger turbochargers and a highly effective electric motor, to give a combined output of 916PS (903 bhp) and a maximum torque figure of 900Nm. This ensures instantaneous throttle response through the rev range, more akin to a naturally aspirated engine. Emissions of less than 200g/km on the combined cycle are reduced to zero in full electric drive mode, while the Formula 1-derived DRS and IPAS technologies offer an increase in straight-line speed and an instant boost of power.

The tyres fitted to the McLaren P1™ are specially developed P Zero Corsas, which have been developed with McLaren’s technology partner, Pirelli. The team at Pirelli has been involved throughout the entire development programme, and this has seen the tyre testing phase integrated into the schedule, as a key performance component. The final compound and construction has been developed and optimised during testing, and the end result is a tyre that is finely tuned specifically to the performance and handling characteristics.

To rein in the power produced by the twin powerplants, the McLaren P1™ is designed to offer braking performance more associated with a GT3 or sports racing car. Developed by McLaren’s Formula 1 partner Akebono, the system features a new type of carbon ceramic disc, which has previously seen service in space, but never before used on a road car. Stronger than conventional carbon ceramic, the material dissipates heat more effectively, giving the highly efficient braking system exceptional stopping and cooling capability. The system also boasts significantly reduced weight, and a bespoke ceramic layer coats both friction surfaces to give an attractive mirrored finish.

One surprising feature is that the car can also be driven solely in electric mode. In city driving, with an average speed of 30 mph, this could mean up to a 20km range. More than enough for an owner to enter, for example, a city centre Zero Emissions Zone, have dinner and return home.
