This woud be the point of making some of the most anticipated hi-end luxorious road and race cars to rule over European streets. All the vehicles will be heavily modified to bring you the pleasure of driving a beauty, geared with revised V8, that will take you from 0 to 100km (62mph) in 4.2 seconds, so you can try reaching top speed of 204 mph.

That monstrous power is combined with even further imroved fuel economy: 29.7 mpg and the best so far CO2 emissions of 221 g/km.
