Even if the engine of 7 liter V8 model of Z06 manages to deliver 512 HP, nothing less, Geigercars made so as to obtain 542 HP.
The Germans have not said anything about performance, but if we think that 512 HP are enough good car for the series to reach 100 km / h in 3.9 seconds, that means almost 600 HP should make a visible difference.

BMW M1 Homage Concept Car

BMW M1 Homage Concept Car is one amazing car. In a nod to the 30th anniversary of the fabled BMW M1 supercar, BMW Group Design just launched a new concept car that acts as a homage to it—and that’s also what they named it. At the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este 2008 this week, the company debuted the BMW M1 Homage, which they call a “design study in the tradition of a BMW Turbo that represents a contemporary take on the BMW M1 and the mid-engine concept.”

The concept’s Liquid Orange paint is meant as a tribute to the original car’s color, The air vents in the hood, the twin rear badges, the rear window louvers, and the black cut line that separates the roof line from the rear of the car are also details that made it into the new version. The dimensions are mostly the same as the original except for an extended wheelbase for more interior room. The headlights almost disappear into the car when closed, as a kind of new iteration of the long-since-gone retractable lamps of old.

There’s no word on anything underneath the skin, but let’s hope they decide to build it.

It’s remarkable how they have brought out so much power from such a tiny engine: a central 4.2 liter twin-turbo. The impressive power dues to the titan reciprocating rod and the wrought pistons.
This Porsche not only is faster, but also exclusive, only 20 exemplars being made, each at a price of €600.000.
