Lamborghini Egoista
Lamborghini Egoista Photos: Single-Seater Supercar Celebrates 50 Years of Extreme Styling Lamborghini’s newest and most outrageous creation yet is built with a singular purpose, namely, pleasing the driver. As a result, there’s no room for anyone besides the lucky individual holding the steering wheel in their hands. Called the Egoista (which, translated means “selfish”) the name says it all, with a singular focus on the individual owner. With just one-seat, it takes inspiration from fighter jets, with a cockpit that opens at the top and a head-up display dominating the view out front. Unveiled last night at the closing ceremonies to Lamborghini’s 50th anniversary celebration, company CEO Stephen Winkelmann drove the wild creation onto the stage in front of a gathering of owners and brand loyalists. Reportedly based on the Gallardo chassis it is powered by the brand’s 5.2-liter V10 engine which makes as much as 570 hp in certain models. The creation of VW Group design boss Walter de Silva it’s not yet clear if the Egoista is simply styling concept or the next in a line of low volume production specialties for those looking for a truly unique machine

Limited edition GTA Spano Supercar 2013
Spanish supercar manufacturer GTA Motor, now known as Spania GTA, has a passion for the Geneva Motor Show.
In 2011, the firm displayed its original Spano supercar concept, and this was followed up by the debut of the production-ready version at the Geneva show in 2012.
For the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, which takes place this week, Spania GTA rolled out a new limited edition Spano, which it calls the GTA Spano.
Only 99 examples will be built, assuming Spania GTA finds enough buyers, and all of them will come with a 900-horsepower rating. That’s slightly more than the regular Spano’s 840-horsepower output.
Spania GTA says owners can expect a 0-62 mph time of 2.9 seconds and a top speed of over 217 mph.
The new limited edition model also showcases some minor tweaks made to the Spano since its reveal last year, with the car having received a new engine cover and a much improved interior.
All Spano supercars are built around a lightweight chassis composed of carbon fiber, titanium and Kevlar. They draw their power from a mid-mounted, 8.3-liter V-10 engine, and drive goes to the rear wheels via a seven-speed sequential gearbox.
With a curb weight of just under 3,000 pounds, the Spano should certainly be an exciting drive, though we can’t confirm that yet.
Note, Spania GTA is already working on additional Spano variants. One of these is said to be a track-focused Spano R rated at up to 1,200 horsepower and another is tipped to be a new Spano Spyder convertible.

Abu Dhabi’s Solid Gold "Biofuel" Mercedes
How un-green? Not only an over-the-top luxury car, but made from white gold! So what if it can run on biofuel.
Are the United Arab Emirate states being over-the-top extravagant
when purchasing super luxury cars? Word has it that an Abu Dhabi
billionaire is the proud owner of a Mercedes V10 Quad Turbo sports job
that has a body made of white gold! Not gold paint, but gold alloy
sheet metal. Do these kinds of luxuries find any parallel with the
similarly over-the-top “eco” projects happening in the region, like The World islands and Masdar City?
The specially made car features a newly developed V10 quad turbo with 1,600 horsepower and 2800nm of torque. It is said to be able to go from 0-100km/h in less than 2 seconds, and can go a 1/4 mile in 6.89 seconds running on biofuel. But seriously folks, is it even relevant to talk about biofuel in the face of such an item?
Cost of this “jewelry store on wheels” is reported to be $2.5 million USD – or enough money to feed the poorer populations of many Arab countries for months.
Oil rich Emirates in the UAE have been known to spend large sums of money on all kinds of extravagant projects including what has been billed as the largest and most expensive indoor ski complex in the world, Ski Dubai, the world’s tallest building, Burj Khalifa Tower (all 158 stories of it) Abu Dhabi’s now being constructed luxurious Al Reem Island (said to be a playground for the wealthy); and what may be the only truly environmental sustainable project, Masdar City, which is also in the early stages of construction.
