I have a Bogliq I’ll be showing…

SPOILER ALERT: I entered it into CSR60!!!

Linden Automotive Products (LAP) presents the 2018 LE52, an analog driver’s car in the traditional sense. The base model is powered by a 5.2L cross-plane normally aspirated V8 developing 500 horsepower (metric), sent to the rear wheels exclusively via a six-speed manual gearbox. A premium interior and infotainment system, complete with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are both standard. And yes, you can toggle the stability and traction control off completely when you really want to cut loose.

For hardcore enthusiasts, the R trim uses a flat-crank version of the 5.2L V8, with a higher compression ratio and a revised cam profile for more grunt where it matters most - at the top end. This trim will initially be only available as a coupe and comes with a lightweight interior and forged wheels, saving additional weight. It also has a manually adjustable rear wing and suspension, which is handy for track days. However, if the demand exists, we will offer the R trim as a convertible as well.

A supercharged version of the LE52 is currently under development at the time of writing. It is likely that this range-topping version, suffixed S, could develop between 600 and 700 horsepower in production form.

Looks like a vision of the future… From 1985, which is when the GTV body is first unlocked.

@Awildgermanappears nice ad… The tagline implies a pushrod engine (which is incompatible with VVL by design).

The answer to that is a lot more ironic than that. I like the concept of modern Pushrod engines, but I reserve those for one of my american ventures. In short this newest version of the by now iconic S-Series completely subverts expectation and actually employs the VVL technology and Turbocharging to not only be faster than any other stock S-Truck but also best the most frugal Diesel for fuel economy. I thoroughly despise this overpowered nature of Turbo-VVTL. This is one of the rare exceptions to the rule.

Just to make sure I am doing this right, I need to link the car, or just specs by the 14th?

I like the graphic work you did there…:grin:

On second thought I think I’ll hold off revealing my car… It’s design is not up to the quality standards displayed by everyone else here at the show :exploding_head:

You should also fire your widebody designer or the wheel and spacer supplier. Whichever you’d like to blame on the funny wheel fitment in those oversized arches.
