German tuner Cobra Technologies, who are particularly fond of Nissan Z cars, released a new package for the 370Z Roadster. You get a carbon fiber look aero pack including spoiler lip, boot lid wing and rear diffuser, plus wheels and suspension adjustment, but the main feature is the COBRA N+ sport exhaust system. These remote-controlled exhausts which have 120mm pipes, come with some butterfly valves acting like a dial changing the car’s soundtrack!

There's only so much that can be said about a drag race between a Nissan GT-R and the Lexus LFA. It's a traditional competition pitting Japan's two Euro-fighting high-tech supercars against each other in an attempt to figure out which one is faster in the quarter mile.
Nissan's controversially styled Juke compact crossover model will be priced from £12,795 OTR when it goes on sale in the UK in late September, the automaker announced today (see U.S.-market version here).
This means that Nissan is targeting buyers in the supermini segment with the Juke. For example, the new Ford Fiesta starts from £11,645, but that's the price for the entry-level three-door model with a puny 60HP 1.25-liter petrol unit. The basic version of the Juke is powered by a 117-horsepower 1.6-liter petrol engine.
When it comes to straight-line acceleration, there are a few (if any...) street-legal cars in this world that can compete with the VW Group's 1,001-horsepower-strong Bugatti Veyron 16.4 supercar.
