The Mercedes Benz SLS AMG GT3 45th Anniversary edition is an outrageous track-only supercar built to celebrate the 45th birthday of AMG. Just 5 cars will be built, and each one costs about £360,000 – £191,575 more than the road-going SLS Coupe.

For your investment, you get a hand-built SLS AMG track car based on the firm’s GT3 racer. All five anniversary cars come in this new designo magno graphite matt paint finish, complimented by the special “45 Years of Driving Performance” logo in silver on the GT3 racing car’s gullwing doors.

Inside, the full roll cage is also painted in the designo magno graphite colour, while the GT3’s dash sports a matt carbon fibre finish. The seatbelts come in contrasting silver.

Key to any AMG car is its engine. The 6.2-litre naturally aspirated V8 in the GT3 45th Anniversary edition is fitted by long-standing Mercedes test driver, not to mention five-time DTM champion, Bernd Schneider.

Each of the cars bears a special plaque with its build number and Schneider’s signature, making the SLS AMG GT3 45th Anniversary edition quite the collector’s item, according to Mercedes.

Happy Birthday from London!

So be creative…

Let’s imagine you are one of those lucky people that have the extra £65,000 in your pocket and want to buy the new 2013 SRT Viper. Now that you have the money, £63,000 for the SRT Viper and £78,000 for the SRT Viper GT, the next step would be to configure the sports car of your dreams. According to SRT, that shouldn’t be a problem because the new Viper comes with no less than 150,000 possible combinations, including colours and stripes, interior options, stereo choices, and wheel designs.

The standard Viper is offered with a choice of six exterior colours – Adrenaline Red, Black Venom, Bright White, Gunmetal Pearl, Race Yellow, and Shadow Blue Pearl – while the GTS adds two more- Stryker Red Tinted Pearl and GTS Blue. These exterior colours can be combined with different racing stripes – Billet Silver, Black Venom, and Gunmetal. Next, we have eight wheel options.

For the interior, there are three different audio systems. The seats can be covered with premium ballistic nylon, Nappa leather with Alcantara inserts, and the first application of Laguna Premium leather in an SRT.
There are also four packages to choose from: the Track Package, the Grand Touring Package, the GTS Laguna Interior Package and GTS Launch Edition Package.

That being said, all you need is patience, lots of money, and good luck to customise the Viper of your dreams! Or, to make it easier, let your car customise by Prindiville…

• DB9 13MY boasts new styling, revised engineering and enhanced luxury
• More power from updated 6.0-litre V12 engine, increased to 517 PS
• Technology includes Aston Martin’s latest generation adaptive damping

Aston Martin is today revealing full details of the latest major enhancements to its iconic Sports GT car, the luxurious and potent DB9.

Appearing hot on the heels of the all-new Vanquish Super GT, the introduction of 13 Model Year DB9 gives the British luxury sports car maker the perfect opportunity to further enrich the appeal of its mainstay in the GT sector, with significant developments affecting styling inside and out, plus key changes under the new DB9’s classically beautiful ‘skin’.

The styling changes see DB9 adopt an even more lithe, fluid and pure form reminiscent of the outgoing Aston Martin Virage, which ceases production with immediate effect. Taking a classic Aston Martin GT silhouette as its base, the new DB9 adds a more pronounced rear boot ‘flip’ to further enhance the aerodynamic performance of the car.

The exterior design of the DB9 communicates a powerfully assertive yet elegant character. The surfaces display taught lines and subtle muscular forms that point to the underlying power of this renowned Sports GT.

Inside, as out, the revised DB9 becomes yet more elegant and more luxurious. Unmistakably Aston Martin, the Sports GT’s opulently appointed interior boasts authentic materials and the highest levels of attention to detail.

Aston Martin Chief Executive Officer Dr Ulrich Bez said: “Aside from the undeniably beautiful exterior styling and now even more luxurious interior, there are many important and impressive engineering changes that demonstrate Aston Martin’s renowned ability to create compelling cars in the modern era.”

“With the exceptional new Vanquish super GT occupying the top of the range, there is now a clear and logical step from DB9.”

DB9 13MY is available to order now through Aston Martin dealers worldwide, with the first cars making their market debuts in UK and Western Europe in October.

London 8am: Traffic is stopping, people are staring.

This morning we said goodbye to the incredible Lamborghini Aventador, who`s new and lucky owner is a Swiss customer. Since the Lamborghini Aventador is very hard to get, the guy was over the moon when Prindiville confirmed his order. Prindiville is excited to be working on another Aventador project and look forward to giving the Aventador the Prindiville touch.

Lamborghini Aventador is 4.78 meters long, 2.26 meters wide and only 1.136 meters high. The proportions and body parts have been calculated to make the Aventador’s aerodynamics as efficient as possible. All of the aerodynamic elements are integrated into the body shell form, from the front spoiler to the rear diffuser, while the rear spoiler is deployable and controlled electronically. The 4-degree approach angle is optimized for high speed and assists directional stability at the very top end of the spectrum. The 11-degree tilt, on the other hand, delivers considerably greater down force at mid-range speeds, helping to optimize handling and stability.

Prindiville is pleased to see another happy customer.
