Nissan Juke R First production is a fact

Nissan Juke-R First

Virgin white ie, the first of mortals referred Nissan Juke-R. The colorless lacquer production version looks a lot sweeter than the matte black drafts. But what is called love, the Juke-R # 001 is even stronger than previously described.

Because every V6 twin turbo for a Nissan GT-R and now Juke-R largely by hand in each block is screwed no completely identical to the other. The result is that the power of the 3.8 liter engine fluctuates between 475 and 500 hp. For t ease Nissan announced then that the peak power was 485 horsepower. Meanwhile, the GT-R model year 2013 to around 550 hp. And benefit from the production of copies of the Juke-R while the two drafts are based on older versions of "Godzilla".

three counting
The half-million museum ripe Juke-R - because unfortunately, most wear their life - on paper good for 545 hp, but as I said, you never know. Measurements by Nissan that the cars driver in three seconds by the 100 can pop it. The top speed is set at 275 km / h. This is also considerably higher than the 257 km / h of the concepts.

slightly revised
Hard to see that the design of the Nissan Juke-R for production purposes something has changed. The lower part of the front spoiler and sills cum sideskirts are slightly different and also knows the diffuser at the rear a slightly different form.

This is a 250 horsepower Ferrari powered quad

we really should just shut up and let the absurdity of this contraption sink in for a spell, but the details of the Lazareth Wazuma V8F are just to insane to leave unmentioned. A 3.0-liter Ferrari V8 lies at the heart of the newest Lazareth Wazuma, and the 250-horsepower lump is bolted to a six-speed manual transmission sourced from a BMW M3.

A set of 12.8-inch Brembo brakes help bring the blur down from speed. All told, the V8F tips the scales at a relatively portly 1,433 pounds, which is still light enough to scare your underwear inside out given the power on tap.

If youre looking for the best way to kill yourself on four wheels, this is likely it, but dont expect the assisted suicide to come cheap. The Lazareth Wazuma V8F will set you back just under $261,000 at current conversion rates. What can we say? This kind of twisted engineering doesnt come for free.

Also this concept is now strictly held by the L-Finesse design language designed. This Lexus is developing a family as we face the manufacturer have not seen before. Indeed, Lexus Audi goes chasing them through the design right from the front barely distinguishing it. And yet we see in this LF-CC even more extreme forms than we have seen before. This is expressed here in -- front and rear sides with aggressive grille and air orifices and small, elongated light units both front and rear LEDs are completely built. At the bottom of the rear bumper sports a real diffuser and even in the flank is a wind deflector. Since the LF-CC is a coupe is moreover right side, additional to its fullest.

Hybrid
it is in line with expectations: under the hood is Lexus Hybrid Drive. In this case, a 2.5-liter four-cylinder with Lexus power not yet specify. The same is true for the combined power that by means of the electric motor is generated. On CO2 emissions is one thing clear: that is anyway under 100 g / km.
