2013 Pagani Zonda PS

We are not very sure how many of you remember the unique Zonda PS announced back in 2009, but for those of you that do, Pagani has now unveiled a new version of the PS edition. The model announced back in 2009 was spotted a few times while it was heading to the 24 Hours of Le Mans, but it was stored and there was no chance to see it again.

However, a new version of the Zonda PS has been caught for the first time. As you can see, the new PS edition has dropped the previous white and black combination and looks a little bit more stylish, thanks to its new blue color.

The Zonda PS also features a gigantic spoiler and a roof scoop, just like the ones we have seen in the Zonda R.

More details on the new Pagani Zonda PS will be unveiled in the upcoming weeks, so stay tuned!

Office-K Adds Some Visual Upgrades to the Ferrari F12berlinetta

Generally we do not agree with upgrading the look of a Ferrari model, and even less when it comes to the likes of the F12berlinetta. However, the past few weeks have brought us quite an impressive amount of upgrade packages for the Italian supercar, as the latest one was announced just the other days byDMC Tuning.

Today we have an offering from the Japanese tuner, Office-K, that updates the look of the F12berlinetta with a subtle exterior kit. The updates start with a new set of Forgiato F2.14 wheels sized 21 inches up front and 22 inches at the rear. The wheels are finished in a very cool gloss black combined with red and carbon-fiber accents.

The new wheels seem to fit perfectly with the new carbon-fiber wrap offered by the tuner. It covers all the plastic sections of the car, including the front air intakes, the rear diffuser and the air intakes.

Unfortunately, Office-K offers you no updates under the hood, so you’ll have to stick with the standard 729 horsepower V12 engine. But who’s complaining, right?

The inside matches the overall chromatic pallet of the exterior. The dashboard is covered with dark brown leather while the seats are lighter in color. On the left and right front doors, Bernar added custom artwork inspired by the same equations used on the exterior.

Despite the fact that the manufacturer only built one, the 2012 Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport by Bernar Venet comes with visually appealing characteristics. Designed by an enthusiast, Bernar used the engineer's equations to make the artwork. Besides the inside and outside do have visual elements that make it a conversation starter, no other changes have been on this model in terms of its overall specifications.

The seats are finished in white and gray trim, and each has built-in headrests. There are separate central consoles dividing both the front pair and the rear pair. Use of purple and blue coloring on various surfaces provides eye-catching contrast to the white and gray.
A graphic display built in to the fascia provides real time information to the driver. The car incorporates the newest developments in IT, providing full interconnectivity for modern smart devices.
