Vorsteiner is preparing to say goodbye to the legendary BMW M3 E92 with a very cool GTRS5 limited edition. Built in a run of just 40 units, the GTRS5 adds both an aggressive look, as well as functionality and performance to the executive car.

The new tuning package is built on the heritage of the GTRS3, but has its own distinct characteristics.

With the all-new 991-series of the 911 here, the relatively large number of tuning companies which base their products on Porsche’s bread-and-butter model are all hard at work developing new performance upgrades and styling accessories.

FAB Design is a Swiss supercar tuning company who in the past have created some, shall we say “controversial” designs. The odd looking Mercedes-McLaren SLR Desire from 2009 being one of their more extreme offerings. However for the 2012 Geneva Motor Show FAB Design have pulled out something rather nice.

The McLaren MP4-12C Terso features a number of comprehensive body modifications, but this time FAB Design have actually managed to improve the look of the car on which it is based.

The car is called the Citroen Numero 9 and its role is to mark the launch of the DS line of vehicles in China. The Citroen Numero 9 is a large luxury car which features futuristic styling and a hybrid drivetrain.

TIKT, a German tuning company who specialise in Corvette parts and upgrades, have just released details of their latest project. Oddly, despite being named the Corvette C6 ZR1 Tripple X, the car isn’t based on a Corvette ZR1, it’s actually based on an ex-works Corvette Z06.

It’s not often you see a student-designed concept supercar which you’d like to see put into production as is, with no changes whatsoever. But somehow a trio of IED (Istituto Europeo di Design) students, Arun Kumar, Daniel Soriano and Magnus Grettve have managed to do just that. The stunning Ferrari Aliante concept was developed for the 2011 Ferrari World Design Contest.

Thing is, besides from the all-new sheetmetal, which is absolutely gorgeous, the car is built on an updated version of the DBS’s platform. Although it’s not entirely new, Aston Martin gave it a number of improvements, such as better torsional rigidity by more than 25 percent.

The German tuning outfit has just released first images and specs of their latest project for the current M6. The F12M M6 sports a 560hp twin-turbocharged 4.4-liter V8 and is the fastest model of the BMW 6-Series

The M6 by Lumma Design sits on 21-inch multi-part sports rims to complete the exterior look, while a refined interior includes a newly upholstered cabin trimmed with leather, Alcantara and carbon fiber.
