Shift 2 meets Hot Pursuit

2011 Lamborghini Reventon SCPD Interceptor
Truthfully speaking, NFS Hot Pursuit was one of THE best games EA has ever produced, and Slightly Mad Studios has decided to honor that game with a couple of VIP Rewards for Shift 2: Unleashed. If you have the game saved on your EA Account on any platform, you will receive this exclusive Lamborghini Reventon with the SCPD livery for use in the game. It has all the performance data of the regular Reventon, just with a cop car livery. Who wouldn't want that? And, as an added bonus, EA will let you drive your first open top supercar in the game.

2011 Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster NFS Edition
This Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster was specially built by Pagani for NFS with custom paint and livery. Only one exists in the real world, and it's a hardtop. Feel honored that you'll get to drive the only drop top Zonda Cinque NFS Edition in the world. Also, EA will give you 1000 Experience Points and an extra $10,000 towards a new car. So, if you haven't pre-ordered Shift 2: Unleashed yet, but you have NFS Hot Pursuit, you might as well pre-order it now if you want to get your hands on these cars.

R8 Madness

2012 MTM R8 V10 BiTurbo
I'm going to introduce you to another insane tuner from Germany. They go by MTM and they specialize in tuning Audis. This is their newest creation, the R8 V10 BiTurbo. You can see that they've done some heavy modification to the body as well as the engine. A standard Audi R8 V10 produces 525 horsepower. MTM decided it needed lots more power. So, what they've done is they've put in two turbochargers and some modifications to the engine itself so it can produce what makes no difference 766 horsepower. That's more powerful than a Zonda R. 0 to 60 is done in less than 3.4 seconds on its way to a top speed of just 216 MPH. Of course with so much power, they had to think of a way to keep it all balanced. Well this is an Audi so, of course it has Quattro all-wheel drive. On the outside, they've fitted the car with 20-inch rims, very shiny chrome paint, a new front lip and rear spoiler, and a massive rear wing. The price: €400,000, and it will only be available in Europe. MTM had no plans of releasing this car over in North America. Anyway, this car is set to shine at Geneva this week. Check it out there.

Flowing with the Wind

2012 Pagani C9 Huayra
And here it is! After weeks of teasers and spy shots, Pagani have finally released photos of their Zonda replacement. The all new C9 Huayra still keeps the Zonda flare, but now has front LED lights, some Zonda R styling, Gullwing doors, jet-like fins, and air conditioners placed in the most reasonable of places.

Nutsack Air Conditioner
Under the hood of this italian beast is a new 6.0-liter 700+ horsepower Twin-Turbocharged AMG V12. 0 to 60 is done in 3.2 seconds on its way to a top speed of 230 MPH. Not mention that this car weighs less than 3,000 lbs. making it very light. This car also comes with loads of carbon fiber, some Italian-rich luxury, and some very powerful brakes which give it the possibility of braking from 124 MPH to 0 in an eye-popping 4.3 seconds, just like the Zonda. This is an epic turnout from what car magazines describe as the potential Ferrari-beater. No word on the prices yet, but expect it to be very expensive. The car will make its official debut in Geneva in March.
