The 2019 Baltazar Stardust

On the pre-show exhibit organized by Baltazar, the stage was empty, with a rotating table right in the middle of it.
It was shaped like a Vinyl disk long player, complete with grooves along the disk. As itstarted turning around, a song started to play, along with purple stage lights and smoke started filling the room.

Once the song was over, the smoke cleared and on top of the turntable stood the brand new Baltazar Stardust.

The new Stardust is an international model, due to be sold across the world with minor differences and built in several Baltazar group factories. The Aguascalientes, Mexico plant will supply the model for all Americas, with sales starting in September, meanwhile the Baltazar-Bonham plant in Beford, UK will produce the Stardust for the European market in late 2018, with deliveries starting in January 2019. Hangzhou, China and Samut Prakan, Thailand will supply for the Asian and Oceanian markets from 2019.

The car can be equipped with a choice of 3 power outputs from 2 engines, a 1.5 turbocharged inline 4 or a pair of 2.0 turbocharged inline 4 units, with power outputs of 150, 202 and 270 hp respectively. Not all markets will receive similar engine options, with the US market cars being equipped exclusively with the 2.0 units. All options can be paired with either a 6 speed manual gearbox or a 6 speed DCT unit, with power sent to the front wheels. AWD is available as an option on the 2.0 models.

2019 Audentia Regulus

Why Settle For Less Than Perfect? Pic


With the roar and bite of a lion, the 2019 Audentia Regulus drives like no other car before it. In 1955 Audentia was created to sell cars that seemed they could only exist in dreams. Sixty-four years later Audentia continues the tradition of creating high-performance luxury vehicles.

The Regulus is equipped with the powerful 608-Hurricane V8 engine. The 4.6L V8 is capable of producing 478 horsepower and 339 ft-lb of torque. All of that power combined with the car weighing only a little over two tons is what allows the Regulus to go from 0-60 in just under a staggering 4.2 seconds and a top speed at 192 miles per hour. However, the power isn’t the only thing that makes the Regulus such an incredible piece of engineering. The 2019 version of the Regulus is able to do 24 miles to the gallon in the city and 32 on highways.

Once inside the Regulus, you will be greeted by a driver-oriented gauge cluster and a beautiful colored heads-up display. Like any other Audentia, the Regulus’ interior is crafted from only the best materials possible. This means seats made with alcantara rather than leather, brushed titanium, and several beautiful wood types. The HUD displays G-Force, traffic, speed limits, entertainment information, directions and many other useful pieces of information any owner of a Regulus may want to know.

Kasai Motors, in a joint collaboration with Centro Stile Betta, presents:

Kasai Shindai BSC -

Unhinged. Inconspicuous.

Powered by a 5.7L twin turbo V12 engine developed in-house generating 600 hp and 551 lb-ft of torque mated to a 6-speed auto transverse AWD transmission, this 5-door luxury hatchback serves as a proof of concept on “How much can it fit in a small package?”

Entrusting fully to Centro Stile Betta on the design department, it is finished in CSB’s Betta Chacarron Brown, with 19" Betta Gunsmoke Grey 10-spoke alloy wheels and Temperamento Orange calipers. It looks very brown and aggressive, all the while still maintaining its manners.

Unfortunately, due to the high cost of manufacturing the V12 engine, the Shindai BSC is only going to be produced in a limited amount. The mass-produced variant, however, is going to release soon, powered by a similarly-potent V6 engine instead.

Contact us to book for a test drive today.

(many thanks to @TheMiltos21 for the design!)

Head says: This seems wrong on so many levels.

Heart says: Not really.

And for once I’ll trust my heart instead of my head.

Nothing is crazier than a luxury compact hatchback with a transversely mounted twin-turbo V12 driving all four wheels.

In 1955 Franklin unveiled their first sportscar. Rather than a sporty variant of the HiWay, this was a fully fledged sportscar call the Cerberus.

Today Franklin Marshall would like to present the latest incarnation of this small, lightweight sports car.

Specs
3.2L i6 turbocharged engine
Power: 366hp @ 7100rpm
Torque: 490nm @ 4900rpm
Top speed: 173mph
Acceleration: 0-60mph in 3.9s
Fuel ecnomy: 35mpg (imp)
Glued aluminium chassis with aluminium panels
OTR $45,000 (plus taxes where applicable)

Whereas previously the Cerberus has always been a 1 variant vehicle with an i6 engine, the engineers decided to see what could be done by doubling the cylinders. They fitted the car with a 3.5L V12 producing 600hp, better aero package, and a lighter body. This car is to be sold in a very limited number. We’d like to present the Cerberus Hades Edition.

Sadly, I will be unable to release my car, because my computer is entirely dead.
I hope I’ll be back in the game soon, but it’s not sure :frowning:
