BREAKING NEWS~!!!! WHEN A HYPERCAR ISN'T ENOUGH?
BUGATTI, are hard at work on the SuperVeyron which we call the Project Aerolithe here! This model will use a reworked and upgraded version of the quad-turbo 8.0 liter W-16 that is slated to produce no less then 1600 BHP! Massive attention has been paid to the car shedding weight, as the company has been working with a lighter carbon fiber tub and sub-frames! My source says expect this model to be in essence a road-legal Veyron racer with improved downforce for handling at speed! My source has revealed to me that the engineers are working overtime on the 16C Galibier/ Royale and the Aerolithe, though many would like to focus on the 16C Galibier/ Royale saloon and a 3 door notchback that with the issues recently made public about Fisker, we could see the revival of the Atlantic nameplate for Bugatti!
FERRARI, have only recently revealed the LaFerrari, and have almost sold all of these models! When news leaks out that Ferrari Design Director has already started to work ona more extreme varient that will be produced in limited numbers! My source syas this car will shed weight, and improve performence and horsepower! My source syas this car is in set to be a FXX varient of the LaFerrari, and rumored to carry the internal nameplate SP150! Though its about 2 years off, this car will be a road-legal hypercar with a more focused on improving downforce! Also expect horsepower to push closer to 1000 BHP, which si a gain of 50 BHP over the base LaFerrari! My source says the company focused its attention on giving this varient a more F1 feel over the abse model! My source says it could see a production run of between 10-20 cars with a pricetag of about $3-5 million USDM!!!
HENNESSEY, are finalizing the Venom GT 2, with plans for the engine to grow to 7.0 liters up from 6.2 liters and will featuring reworked turbo's and a lighter chassis and body! MY source syas the new car could arrive later this year in time to do battle with the likes of the Bugatti Aerolithe, SSC Tuatara, and Koenigsegg Agera X! My source says the company is now set-up to produce no less then 1400 BHP in base format, while a a performence driven package could see roughly 1600 BHP! The company has also been very busy improving the aerodynamics of this car as it will need it with the lighter chassis and body combo! My source says we will see butterfly/ scissor doors added to the design as well as a more wedge shape !
KOENIGSEGG, are steadily working on varients of the Agera, and with the Agera X which is set to produce roughly 1350-1400 BHP! My source says the engine upgrades are being worked on, and we could see this varient arive later this year! My source syas the car will be lighter, and will improve downforce outright! Waiting on another news update, so I will make sure to bring it as soon as I finish reading it!
MCLAREN, have been busy producing the P1 and are currently readying the P13, but my source has uncovered the company are readying a P1 High Sport/ LM varient that will get improved downforce and more horsepower! My source has stated that Ricardo has been tweaking the twin-turbo 3.8 liter V-8 with larger turbo's that will improve horsepower rising from the current 727 BHP up to, 805 BHP from the engine alone while the ERS system will improve to about 175 BHP for a total of 980 BHP! No word on when it will arrive, but I'm sure it won't be before the company sales the base model P1! This plan is to showcase the company as a world beater, as even now the P12 has yet to fully be run to the max for a true topspeed!
SSC, are wrapping up development of the Tuatara and have already annouced plans for a 1350 BHP base and a 1700 BHP for a rumored Tuatara EVO! My source says the car does not need much more refinements as it inches closer to production!, MOre news coming in about this product also, so I will be touching on it in a upcoming update!!!
Stay tuned for more updates soon enough!!!!

I have heard that the LaFerrari FXX is going to get rid of the KERS system to shed weight. Can you confirm that?

Welcome Niko Bellic, as for what you asked, that is false the company is actually looking to this model to further develop the Hy-KERS system for serveral for improved use for the LaFerrari successor which will use a further development of the Hy-KERS system that will improve horsepower even further! As I have heard it this modle will shed more weight and add more advanced aerodynamics to improve outright topspeed! As I have heard it ferrari are denying that this car is in the works, namely because the LaFerrari hasn't sold out yet and know that a car with more horsepower would kill the final sales of the LaFerrari!! Any coumpany out there would hold such a car back until the final car has been sold then make the formal announcement! Case in point the Bugatti Aerolithe which will debut later this year, the car is a Swansong to the Veyron adn the opening of a new chapter in Bugatti History!
Updates coming tomorrow evening, as I have just recieved a news update about a Mercedes-AMG project thats currently under consideration!!!

BREAKING NEWS~!!!! MERCEDES-AMG SECRET SUPERCAR PROJECT!
My source has revealed to me that Mercedes-AMG are finalizing the SLC project in concept form which will preview the new stylign lines of future AMG supercars! My source says that this car will be the the SLS successor with power set to coem from a direct injected twi-turbo 4.0 liter V-8 that will produce 500 BHP in base form, while a S model will move closer to 550 BHP, and a Black Series will move to 650 BHP, hanks to a lighter body made completely of carbon fiber! My source says the plan as of right now is a simple 2 seat coupe with a long bonnet and short deck, that will combine all the technical know-how developed during the SLS development! My source syas expect a updated transaxle, likely using a 8 speed MCT duel clutch transmission driving the rear wheels! If this isn't enough AMG has early work cut out for it on a SLR project that will see a twin-turbo direct injected 5.0 liter V-8 thats will produce no less then 740 BHP and closer to 800 in BHP in Black Series form! The big news is this car could very well use alot more carbon fiber then that of the SLR base model! More news on this coming in as we speak!
BREAKING NEWS~!!!!! LAMBORGHINI 50TH ANNIVERSERY ISN'T OVER JUST YET??
A swe all have seen last week Lamborghini revealed the Goista concept a single seat supercar based around the Gallardo chassis and drivetrain, and as I have heard it as with the Venano production, the early trademarked name saw the car project name Deimos( the Greek Son of Ares and Aphfodite, the God of Fear and Terror), and as my source revealed to me the Project that was named Huracan'( a God of Winds and Stroms) has now been revealed as the Goista, which features styling from the Apache attack helicopter! I this isn't enough, my source says theres another project under wraps as we speak for a ultimate Lamborghini! This car is said to be even more extreme then that of the Veneno, with more horsepower and outright performence! My source has stated a Walter De Silva designed body, all carbon fiber construction, and a curb weight aimed at 2300 lbs. More news to come soon enough on this as soona s my source in Italy gets more!!!
More news to come, stay tuned for more updates soon enough including a new update from Ferrari, and a new secret project happening at McLaren!!! These updates you won't want to miss these updates!

From what I interpret from the update, the SLC and the SLR are both successors for the SLS. It would be a disappointment if the SLS is succeeded by a lesser vehicle, though high style and performance, and not have the gullwing doors. Now, I'm wondering if the SLR will have the gullwing-type doors.
Looking forward, as always, to the next installment!

Acura had a press day in which they talked about the NSX. Acura is working on getting a new plant in Ohio to be built to build the new NSX. Engine is being done in Japan, but it will be built in the USA. It might have a link to the F1 deal. Honda/Acura are benchmarking the 458, MP4-10C, and ZR1 against the new NSX. There is a drivable test mule out there. It is being tested at Virginia International Raceway, but eventually it will be tested at the Nurburgring.

I believe the new plant is being built in an unneeded warehouse in Marysville, so they have the capacity to do it.

Both the SLC and the SLR are the successors to the SLS, while the SLR will take the fight to the likes of Ferrari's F12, Lamborghini Aventador, and Porsche 919(961)!
BREAKING NEWS~!!!! MCLAREN'S SECRET NEW SUPERCAR
As the world settles into the news that Honda will offically be returning to Formula1 as the offical partner to McLaren International in 2015, the biggest news is whats happening behind the scenes at Woking! As we all know McLaren are planning a varient fo the P1 and as I have heard it, the news of this new concept won't be revealed until the P1 is sold out! This new varient is expected to be lighter, faster and mroe aerodynamic then the base P1! My source syas we can expet a horsepower rating from the twin-turbo 3.8 liter V-8 to be pumped up to about 770 BHP, and the ERS system will likely get a slight upgradeto about 185 BHP for a combined out put of 955 BHP. My source says the car is expect to arrive in 2015. My source says the company are already well into early talks and planning for the P1 successor which won't arrive before 2020 for sure! My soruce syas this car will tkae a massive weight saving measure for this next generation hypercar, but one thign for sure we will see a new engine, as the new turbo era V-6 arrives next year its a safe bet that Mclaren and new technical partner Honda Motorsports are lookign to devleop a lightrer, and mroe advanced performence powerplant! My source revealed to em that this tiem around Honda will likely be mroe relaxed this time around on devleoping a engine for the roadcar wing of McLaren, as its clear the company would have never lost McLaren as a partner had the F1 been able to use a Honda developed V-12 for the McLaren F1, which used a 6.1 liter BMW M Division V-12! As my source has revealed to me the MSO ( McLaren Special Operations) are also rumored to be working on a bespoke P1 based hypercar for a client! MY source is currently digging at this stry and with any luck will findout who the client is and where we could see this bespoked hypercar rumored to carry the title X-F1. My source also says McLaren's advancing very fast with the P13 sportscar which is slated to be powered bya verison of the twin-turbo 3.8 liter V-8 producing 500 BHP in base form while a 550 varient is already underway! My source says the company are expecting to use the carbon fiber tub mated to a pair of aluminum and steel spaceframe and the body is expected to come with major aluminum body!
FERRARI
Ferrari recently revealed the company are looking to remain exclusive numbers over pushing for mass production! My source says that also in this plan we will see Ferrari look to add more performence, as the LaFerrari showed the world the company is looking to push numbers in price and performence! We will soon see the 458 Monte Carlo, F12 Scuderia, FF M, and California mk2 with pricing expected to gain about 5-10 % over the next 2-3 years! Also in early works is the LaFerrari EVO, which will improve on the LaFerrari numbers. This car will likely add more performence and aerodynamics outright! My source says this car could push to about 1000 BHP and though it will be race-bred, it should still allow for road use! Beyond this Ferrari are currently working on a more advanced weight saving measures, that will include more carbon fiber and more advanced alloy's for future roadcars! Ferrari are now putting together a far more advanced portfolio then ever before, as the company are now set to develop all there own styling with minimal help from Pininfarina, as we are now offically seeing Ferrari Design Director Flavio Manzoni and his team are set to be styling numerous Ferrari's as we speak!
More news to come soon, including updates about Bentley, Bugatti, SSC, and Pagani~!! Stay tuned for more news updates very soon~!!!

@MyFair, actually the list for the LaFerrari EVO would be very limited with No mor ethen likely 9-10 examples, The list would only be offered to a exclusive list of Ferrari clients! A list that would probably be based around the numbe rof Ferrari's a client has in there collection! According to my source the car would likely push horsepower higher and weight lower and a hefty pricetag to match! According to my source the car wouldn't reach a push for production before 2015, namely to ensure that the base LaFerrari is sold out completely! With this also being a test bed for the LaFerrari successor, much like the Enzo based FXX and FXX Evolutione were created to allow the clients to help with early developmental feedback! As I have heard it many supercar makers are currently taking a note from that development programm to ad in shakedown work for new technologies set to be used in these super/ hypercar successors!
BENTLEY, are hard at work in development of the next generation SuperSports varients, and as I have heard it the company will push for no less then 670 BHP form the twin-turbo W-12, and while thats not far off the rumored 700 BHP that was slated to be developed, the company says is exactly where they want to be, while based on a steel and aluminum spaceframe, the weight saving will come in the form of a carbon fiber hood, decklid, front fenders and aluminum doors and rear quarter panels! My source says the company are looking to lighten the drivetrain and 4 wheel drive system, as well as the aerodymaics that will allow this car to keep pace with the likes of Ferrari's FF. My source also has confirmed that the Azure and Brooklands successor are in the works, as are the EXP 9 F production spec styling is well into final design stages! My source has confirmed that in 2015 Bentley will due away with the aging twin-turbo 6.75 liter V-8, replacing it with a updated twin-turibo W-12, likely being a reworked version of the current W-12, though set to be more fuel efficent and powerful! As for news of a sportscar, my source says that there are tlaks of such a concept being designs by new Bentley Design Diretor Luc Donklewolke and engineered by Bentley Engineering chief Rolf Frech! Rumors suggest it would be powered by a verison fo the twin-turbo W-12, good for about 680 BHP with power going to all 4 wheels! The chassis of course would be a aluminum spaceframe with a aluminum and caron fiber body featuring a 2 seat cockpit and plenty of active aerodynamics! My source also says that Bentley are looking at a long wheelbase verison of the EXP9 F SSUV that will add a third row of seats, and power set to come from the twin-turbo direct injected 4.0 liter V-8 and a version of the twin-turbo 6.0 liter W-12, while also adding a hybrid system to both varients! More news coming in soon, so stay tuned for future updates on this brand!!!
BUGATTI, are set to reveal the ultimate hypercar in the coming months. My source has revleaed to me that the car is currently being finished at Molsheim! My source revelaed to me that this model is set to showcase no less then 1500 BHP from the quad-turbo W-16 and a topspeed of 290 MPH! My source has reveale dto me that this car has been designed by VAG Design Chief Walter De Silva and his team at VAG's headquarters at Wolfsburg, Germany! Expect far more advanced aerodynamics with a set of winglets replacing the single rear wing ( think along the lines of the Pagani Huayra's aerodynamics package) Upfront we will see larger air intakes that will also add active aerodynamics to channel air into the radiators and brake ducts. The side air intakes will be larger also, but with whats being said is a vectoring system that will help cool the radiators even more! My source says that Walter De Silva has been keen to add a central spine of LED lights down staring just after the re-worked air intakes flowing down between the new winglet aerodynamics systems! Combined with a reworked rear diffuser that will allow this car to improve handling and downforce! Expect Motorsports grade carbon fiber blends that are lighter then those used on the base Veyron and SuperSport/ Vitesse. Also in the works are the 16C Galibier/ Royale saloon which are being finalized as we speak! My source says the engine has been re-worked and likely enlarged to somewhere between 8.6-9.6 liters, with the concepts twin duel supercharger set-up making way for a even more impressive twin screw duel supercharger set-up losely based on whats using in the twin-charger set up by VAG, of course tuning the engine to no less then 1050 BHP with power going to all 4 wheels via a new EV systems! My source says that the aluminum spaceframe has been stretched from the LWB Audi A8 set-up almost to the length of the Bentley Mulsanne saloons size, with the W-16 mounted directly over the front axle! The body will be made of carbon fiber roof, front hood and rear decklid, while the doors will be made of aluminum alloy! Just got a news update , so I will be giving another udpate on this soon enough!!!
PAGANI, are hard at work on the roadster varient of the Huayra as well as the Huayra S both are set to be revealed later this year, both are set to use a upgraded version of the Huayra's twin-turbo 6.0 liter V-12 that will be good for no less then 780 BHP overall! My source says that the car will showcase some minor tweaks in styling, but be even more aerodynamic then previously thought! My source also in the works is the Huayra F which will use about more advanced exaust system that could free up as mucha s 810 BHP if all goes well! The F could also showcase the companies plans for a hybrid system! My source has stated to em that Pagani has bene working with Mercedes-AMG on a EV system as well as a full Electric concet to see what the public thinks of a electric hypercar with 4 wheel mounted EV motors with the battery packs placed in the engine bay and part of the center console! Also in the cards is a Huayra little sibling, and this project could be stalled as a successor to the Huayra which wouldn't happen before 2020 at this point. This project would be powered by a AMG source bespoke twin-turbo V-8 that would be good for no less then 750 BHP from the start, and climb to as much as 1000 BHP with Flybrid system and stop/start technology! My source is currently digging in on this news, so stay tuned for future updates about this brand!!!
SSC, are set to finally reveal the full production Tuatara hypercar, with final shaedowns happening as we speak. with production specs set to see 1350 BHP form thre 6.9 liter V-8, while a hotter varient of this engine will be good for no less then 1700 BHP! My source says the company ha sbeen working overtime on getting the aerodynamics just right as this car looks set to trump the Buagtti SuperSport and the upcoming and much talked about Aerolithe hypercar for the worlds fastest title! The only issue is and will remain are numbers, not in performence, but in production! My source says that Jason Castriota Design has already wrappe dup desing work for the second project that SSC had the team work on, and we could see a concept of this model arrive sometime later this year or early next year! My source syas this car will be a toned down concept with a focus as a cheaper model in this 2 tier series of super/hypercars! Expect horsepower power of no less then 600 BHP, but we can surely expect less then the Tuatara!
More news to come soon, enough including news from Aston Martin, Porsche, and a new project underway at Rolls-Royce~!! Stay tuned for more udpates very soon!!!
