Can you taste the “SCUDERIA” rainbow!!!

Ive compiled a small group of various 430 Scuderia pics in some of the more popular colors as well as some off beat ones. Its great to see Ferrari making cars in WACKY colors for once. Regardless if you are a fan or not of these colors on a Ferrari, one cannot deny its a positive step in the right direction for mixing it up abit!

Lamborghini LP 560 arrives in Hong Kong!!!

This past week some of the greatest pics to be taken of a LP560-4 have surfaced over at ferrarichat.com. The brilliant photographer “Chester Ng” of “yashin.fotop.net” was kind enough to share some of his stuff with the public and we should all be more then enthused. For the first time since its release we can finally see how spectacular the new ‘Cordelia’ rims really are. Resembling abit like BBS style rims but with that ever present lambo flare! The interior is just so breathtaking with alcantera leather spit everywhere, it looks cozzy enough to fall asleep in…but whose kidding themselves…who is ever going to fall asleep in that beast!!!

HAMANN X6!!!

There are a great many tuners out there in the car world, but none come close to the sleek and non so riced out factor as does HAMANN. Yes maybe The LP640 they did was abit on the WILD side but it was still tame enough to catch the eye of people who usualy have a great distaste for any form of mods on exotics. Most Recently HAMANN have taken the brand new BMW X6 and done what they do best, make a car look better then it did stock! On an SUV as such we are used to seeing chromed out 22″ rims and tints on all windows, but the classy yet very sporty rims HAMANN have thrown on are a great fit.

The Plateless 599 GTB Involved in Street Race Stolen?

Just yesterday we brought you the story of the Bugatti Veyron and the Ferrari 599 GTB racing down a UK highway. CarFront has been doing some homework, and attempting to find the identities of the drivers. There may be more to this story than the what we saw on the surface, and deeper reasoning on why the black 599 wasn’t sporting a number plate and on top of that didn’t stop when a police pursuit began.

A little over a week ago a Black Ferrari 599 GTB was reported stolen in Cote d’Azur, in Monaco. A few posts popped up on the forums over at FerrariChat.com advising fellow members to please be on the look out for the car.

The post described the car as having:

• Black exterior
• Shields
• Challenge wheels
• Yellow CCB’s
• Black alcantara daytona seats
• White stiching all over
• Alcantara covered rollbar
• White cavallinos stitched in the headrests”

Obviously we can only see so much from the one picture snapped of the car, but it seems to match. So was this someone foreseeing, the possibility of running into the police while having some fun out on the highway, so plates were removed? Or is the reasoning a bit beyond that? We’ll let you draw your own conclusions, but we will let you know any new tid bits we find out.

Cheap Gas - American Border Jumpers

Normally here at CarFront we like to keep our stories specific to high end cars or car companies, this one however, is an exception.

We’re starting to see a reverse surge the opposite way we are used to when it comes to the Mexican border. Americans are making the drive into Tijuana to save money at the pump. Just how much are people saving? For a gallon of regular, California residents are at about $4 a gallon. The drive down south of the border is saving them about $1.25, with the price in Mexico sitting at about $2.75 a gallon. The big shocker comes to Diesel, where Californians are paying about $4.71 a gallon, Mexico, $2.10! Thats a savings of $2.61 a gallon. I guess it’s our turn to leech a little bit?
