Ferrari’s outgoing GT isn’t leaving the scene without a final goodbye from the folks at Vorsteiner. They say their kit takes the 599 a step away from a sports car and moves it closer to a race car. Whether they accomplish all of that is up for debate, but they do manage to cut down on weight by about 70% on the outgoing parts.

OK, I have to admit that when I heard the words “Stance Works” and “Ferrari” in the same sentence, I was apprehensive. When I heard  the subject of the shoot was a 458? Despondent. I figured I’d see this glorious driver’s car sporting a crippling offset and rendered utterly useless. But sometimes it’s nice to be wrong.

Seriously MSN, if you’re going to post a story about Lamborghini flambe, please give it to a writer who understands the charred landscape of the supercar world. I mean, the first sentence is laughable: “Lamborghini is mid-publicity disaster as this video of a $376,000 Lamborghini Aventador going up in flames goes viral.”

When I think about China in the context of cars, I think about the reason Buick wasn’t sent to the crusher with Oldsmobile and wacky stuff like this. To me, communism means Soviet-era Moscow—and it’s safe to say nobody there was rolling a Lamborghini Countach. But that shows what I know, because in the context of vehicles, China has about as much in common with the USSR as daisies do with chemical warfare.

Not the best way to start your racing team. That tangled mess of aluminum and carbon fiber is what’s left of Gemballa’s GT3 race car. The car was one of two that Gemballa was running at the Nurburgring race track during the Veranstaltergemeinschaft Langstreckenpokal Nürburgring (VLN, for the rest of us).

This wicked twin-turbo Porsche was posted up on Reddit’s /r/cars section and while none of my buddies know anything about it, I couldn’t resist posting this pic. Like the set-ups I’ve seen from Lamborghini specialists—and evil sorcerers—of  Underground Racing this one is almost too pretty to hidden behind a bumper.

Since I haven’t seen it in person, my opinion of Ferrari’s FF isn’t completely formed. Now, I love the idea of a four-seater that’s faster than an Enzo, the videos of it playing in the snow are awesome. But the hindquarters are still kind of a buzz kill.
