Mercedes C63 AMG Coupe Black Series (2012) CAR review

3.5

Ben Pulman (on-road photography by Greg Pajo), 04 January 2012 07:00

This is the Mercedes C63 AMG Coupe Black Series, a £100k rival for Porsche’s 911 GT3, Maserati’s MC Stradale and BMW’s M3 GTS. The C63 Black has a more powerful 6.2-litre V8, unique motorsport-inspired suspension, and that Black Series badge isn’t just applied to any old hot rod Merc; there have been just three prior Black Series models, with a ...

Porsche 911 Carrera S (2012) CAR review

3.5

Ben Pulman, 21 November 2011 09:23

Either this is the moment you’ve been waiting for since the first 991-spec Porsche 911 prototypes were spotted testing on the road back in 2008, or you should look away now as we drive the first of many iterations of the new generation rear-engined icon. And rear engined it still most obviously is: that silhouette is unmistakable. The sleeker rear ...

Mercedes E63 AMG Performance Package (2011) CAR review

3.5

Ben Barry, 08 July 2011 17:00

This is the new Mercedes E63 AMG, the hottest Mercedes E-class. It looks the same, but those 'V8 biturbo' badges on the front wings give the game away: the old naturally aspirated 6.2-litre V8 has given way to a new 5.5-litre V8 twin turbo. This makes the E63 the last AMG to get the 5.5 part way through its life ...

Porsche 911 GT3 RS 4.0 (2011) CAR review

Jethro Bovingdon, 01 July 2011 09:42

If you’re one of those people who think that Porsche should have given up on the 911 formula years ago – despite the gazillions of race victories and countless great road iterations that prove you’re wrong – then the GT3 RS 4.0 is just another refinement of a flawed concept. However, for those of us who are in on the ...

Audi R8 LMS (2011) CAR review

3.5

Chris Chilton, 26 April 2011 11:05

This is the race version of Audi's R8 V10 and R8 GT supercars, the R8 LMS. Audi scooped a load of silverware in 2009 with these cars and added a class win in the Nurburging 24hrs covered in Phoenix Racing livery. For the 2010 season the Audi R8 LMS was been updated with tweaks to the suspension, gearbox and cooling system. How does ...

Porsche Cayman R (2011) CAR review

Tim Pollard, 15 April 2011 07:00

Let me declare an interest. I have a serious fixation with the Porsche Cayman. Forget your 911s or supercars – the Cayman is what I trot out when I’m often asked what is my dream car. I just struggle to see how I’d want more power, more speed, more handling delicacy – or expense – in my life than the ...

Porsche Cayman R PDK (2011) CAR review

3.5

Ben Pulman, 24 February 2011 13:00

CAR's just driven the new Porsche Cayman R, the third addition to Porsche’s mid-engined coupe range to sit above the Cayman and Cayman S. There’s a whole host of weight-saving measures (some welcome, some not), more power, and a serious set of chassis tweaks. It should be the best Porsche Cayman yet – read on for CAR’s first drive review. What ...

Porsche 911 GT2 RS (2010) CAR review

3.5

Ben Pulman, 22 December 2010 09:00

This is the Porsche 911 GT2 RS, not just the most powerful 911 that Porsche has ever built, but also the company's most powerful road car period. It has 611bhp from its twin-turbocharged 3.6-litre flat six, and for the facelifted 997 911 Porsche hasn’t bothered building a regular GT2 but skipped straight to this RS-spec car. It costs £100k more ...

Porsche 911 Carrera GTS (2010) CAR review

3.5

Ben Pulman, 19 November 2010 17:30

This is the Porsche 911 Carrera GTS, and it has the potential to be the best all-round 911 yet. An engine upgrade boosts power and torque; it uses the more seductive wide body from the four-wheel drive models; and features a whole host of other options for not much more cash than a standard Carrera S. Yes, we know the ...

Lotus Evora S (2010) CAR review

3.5

Ben Pulman, 01 November 2010 16:31

This is the new Lotus Evora S, and with the help of a supercharger, its 3.5-litre V6 has been boosted from the standard Evora’s 276bhp and 252lb ft, to 345bhp and 295lb ft. Enough, Lotus hopes, to shake off criticism that the Evora just isn’t quick enough; it’s that car’s only real fault, so has the extra power turned the ...
