Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport (2011) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 17 March 2011 14:00

Obscure supercars come and go, each proclaiming to be faster than the Bugatti Veyron. Five years after driving the original Veyron, it's time to try this final evolution of the species, the Super Sport, a car that should secure Bugatti the ‘World’s Fastest’ title for some time. How has a standard Bugatti Veyron become a Bugatti Veyron Super Sport? By ...

Audi R8 GT (2010) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 12 November 2010 13:00

This is the Audi R8 GT, a lighter, more powerful (and thus faster) version of Ingolstadt’s finest supercar. Think of the GT as a Superleggera version of the R8, a car to take on the likes of the GT3 RS, M3 GTS, and of course, the real Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera. So is the Audi R8 GT essentially a German version ...

Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera (2010) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 06 August 2010 10:00

This is the Superleggera for short, or in full, the Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera, which sounds great when spoken quickly in Italian. Goes quickly too, thanks to a 562bhp V10 and a 1340kg kerbweight; do the maths and that’s 419bhp/tonne. Think of the Superleggera as Lamborghini’s response to the threat of RS Porsches (GT3 and GT2), a pre-emptive strike against ...

Lexus LF-A (2010) vs Mercedes SLS (2010) twin test

3.5

Georg Kacher, 08 June 2010 13:29

The June 2010 issue of CAR Magazine features CAR's Supercar World Cup. Georg Kacher was on hand during the exclusive Merc SLS vs Lexus LFA cover feature and tells his story here. For Jethro Bovingdon's full eight-page supercar twin test of the year, make sure you buy the June 2010 issue of CAR Magazine brightcove.createExperiences(); Lexus LFA vs Mercedes SLS. ...

Corvette ZR1 (2008) CAR review

Georg Kacher, 11 September 2008 10:00

The new Corvette ZR1 is the world’s quickest and rawest sports car – only mad supercars and insane track cars can best it. This is a bright yellow bullet, with 638bhp (making it the most powerful ‘Vette of all time), carbonfibre bodywork and Brembo’s biggest ceramic brakes. Just 1800 ZR1s will be built each year at GM’s plant in Kentucky, ...

Artega GT (2008) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 09 September 2008 09:50

The new Artega GT is a Porsche Cayman S rival at 911 money from a brand new German manufacturer. Delusions of grandeur? Perhaps not, because the chief advisor to the project is Karlheinz Kalbfell, an ex-BMW man who helped launch Mini and Rolls-Royce under German ownership, before moving onto Alfa and Maserati. And the VW Group supplies the engine and ...

Porsche 911 GT2 (2008) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 28 September 2007 05:17

Another yawnworthy 911? Or a yee-hah one? Definitely the latter. 911 Turbo not hard enough? Then how about removing the four-wheel drive, sir? Want to smash the magical 200mph barrier? Soak in the GT2's 204mph v-max and quake in your boots. Oh, and it has semi-slick Cup tyres too. Make no mistake, the GT2 isn't for fools. You won't miss ...

Mercedes McLaren SLR Roadster (2007) CAR review

2.5

Georg Kacher, 24 July 2007 11:40

That name's quite a mouthful, isn’t it? Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren Roadster is indeed a tongue twister. And make sure you get Merc and McLaren the right way round, otherwise the men from Germany will get all antsy. Thus the name pretty much sums up the genesis of this car: from coupe (SLR), to hardcore coupe (the 722), and now to ...

Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera (2007) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 23 March 2007 09:56

What's so special about this evil-looking bit of kit? It's a harder, faster and lighter Lamborghini Gallardo, a kind of pre-emptive strike against the Ferrari F430 Challenge Stradale due for launch next year. Shorn of its hi-fi and fitted with thinner glass and more carbonfibre and less metal, the Superleggera weighs 1330kg, a soild 100kg less than the standard Gallardo. ...

Porsche 911 GT3 UK (2006) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 13 December 2006 12:00

What's the GT3 for, and hasn't it been around for ages? We first drove the car in our dark pre-website days but thought we'd revisit it now that the first few have rolled off the boat onto UK soil. As for what it's for, it's simply for making you smile more than any other 911 on sale. This is as ...
