    New Audi S8 Plus Packs 605 Horses And 305km/h Top Speed

    Audi has just revealed the bonkers version of the S8 called the S8 Plus and as you can expect it offers some very impressive numbers. The 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 has been tinkered with and now pushes out 605 horsepower (85hp increase) and 700Nm of torque with an overboost function capable of upping it to 750Nm. This extra power has been achieved by adding a new ECU with speed and charge pressure boosting and thanks to this, the big brute of a car can hit 100 km/h from stand still in just 3.8 seconds and go all the way to a de-limited top speed of 305 km/h. If you want to hit this top speed, you will have to opt for the Dynamic Package and this includes massive carbon-ceramic brakes and a very shouty exhaust note.

    Cosmetically, the Audi S8 Plus can be distinguished by the darkened tail lights and the gloss black diffuser but the matte ‘Floret Silver’ paint is exclusive to this model too. Customers can choose many of the bits and pieces around the car in carbon and the interior features contrasting red stitching on full-black leather. This is one seriously fast luxury sedan and although it will only be available in normal wheelbase, I can see many high-profilers purchasing this because it has such insane performance. It will be available starting at the end of November with a base price of €145,200 (about $157,000) in Germany.

    • Looks like the new Mercedes-AMG S 63 E PERFORMANCE was spotted testing in South Africa 🇿🇦

That start-up sounds pretty damn promising!

This thing packs a whopping 791 hp (590 kW) and 1,430 Nm of torque.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
