About a month ago on my way to work I came across something which looked like it was from the movies. There was a warehouse full of exotic and muscle cars being seized by the DEA and US Marshalls. All the cars combined are worth upwards of 4 million dollars. Some of the exotics which were seized which weren’t in the video included a Mercedes Benz SLR McLaren Roadster, Dodge Viper SRT-10 ACR, Diablo Roadster, and a Rolls Royce Drophead which you can slightly see at one point.

The design is like a super sports cars another, very sporty!! If you are a fan of Ferrari or Lamborghini, you definitely will like as well with this car. The engine was also given a very powerful energy-based V8. Developed in parallel with the outgoing NSX race car in Japan’s Super GT touring car series, the new Honda race car has been approved for competition use next year–apparently the Super GT regulations have a loophole allowing an automaker to campaign a car in the series that’s “production feasible” but not in production–and we now have all the official details. Renamed the HSV-10 GT (Honda Sports Velocity), Honda’s new race car is packing a 3.4-liter V-8 engine developing more than 500 horsepower and 290 pound-feet of torque. Power is sent rearward via a Ricardo sequential manual gearbox that will also be adopted by Nissan’s and Toyota’s race cars in the series and the whole thing weighs in at just 2400 pounds.
