Unveiling its impressively powerful Black Series edition earlier in July, Mercedes-AMG has now crafted a special Stealth Edition of its performance GT, giving the speedster a sleek, blacked-out look.
Available for both the coupe or convertible versions of the new 2021 GT, the special edition taps AMG’s Exterior Night Package, meaning a dark chrome radiator grille, black-accented headlamps, black brake calipers, and black wheels measuring 19 and 20 inches. The roof is now constructed from carbon fiber with dark details, while the interior is — as you expect — in all black. The main paint job itself is offered in four different tones: black, obsidian black metallic, selenite grey metallic, or designo graphite grey magno. As to its performance, the car matches the 2021 GT, pushing out 523 horsepower and clocking 0-60 mph in a mere 3.7 seconds.
Available in early 2021, learn more about Mercedes-AMG’s new GT Coupe and Convertible over on its website.
As the world continues to get excited about the all-new Land Rover Defender, imagining it as a Chelsea tractor or as a campervan, others like Samir’s Customscontinue to work on the old model, rendering it like the van seen above.
Samir’s Customs’ unofficial rendering imagines the Land Rover Defender as some kind of Mad Max-suited, apocalypse-fighting machine. Despite heavy modifications, the original frame of the Defender can still be recognized — it’s a three-door Defender 90 body on top of a lengthened five-door 110 chassis at its core.
An external metal cage fits around the van’s body, turning into a roof rack that’s fitted with a spare wheel, fuel supplies, and four giant spotlights. There’s also a ladder attached at the rear in true Defender off-roading style.
Elsewhere, the render shows a flat front that combines signature design cues such as its original round headlamps with a new grille bar, spotlights, and a more upright windscreen, which all adds to the van-indebted look.
Take a look at Samir’s Customs’ render of the Land Rover Van Defender above, and see more of the artist’s work on their Instagram.
Luxury Italian supercar manufacturer Ferrari may have experienced a 60 percent hit to its Q2 earnings, but that hasn’t stopped the Prancing Horse from developing a new car — the Portofino M.
The new model follows on from the Portofino that was released back in 2017, entering its line-up of supercars as the new flagship convertible grand tourer. What was previously a softer Ferrari, suited to more everyday use, has now been upgraded under the brand’s “Modificata” moniker.
Its 3.9-liter V8 engine has been upped from 592 BHP to 612 BHP, and there is also a new eight-speed paddle-shift gearbox in place of the original car’s seven-speed set-up. Livening up the model is the added “Race Mode” switch, which is an interesting move as the Portofino is a far cry from the power-focused models in Ferrari’s line-up, such as the 812 GTS or the hybrid SF90 Stradale.
To help customers distinguish the differences between a Portofino and a Portofino M, Ferrari has made the front bumper more sculpted and muscular, and has added a new exhaust system that has subsequently changed the rear diffuser’s styling. Alongside the announcement of the Portofino M, Ferrari will also be discontinuing the original model — meaning this is now the entry-level Ferrari on offer.
No official price has been stated as of yet, but expect more information to come as we gear closer to the Ferrari Portofino M’s 2021 release.
