Ferrari FXX Evolution review
The innovative FXX program, based on the eponymous prototype car and launched by Ferrari in June 2005, was completed in the 2008 which is the most advanced GT ever created at Maranello, has been updated for the last season with an evolution package aimed at further improving its handling and performance. The package was developed as a result of Ferrari's collaboration with its Client Test Drivers and with the invaluable support of Michael Schumacher.
Maranello's engineers studied the wealth of information gained to develop a kit which will cut the FXX's Fiorano lap time to under 1,16 inches. The FXX's 6262 cc V12 engine can now punch out a massive 860 bhp at 9500 rpm. Gearshifting takes just 60 ms, a drop of 20 ms on the previous time, and the gear ratios have been adapted to make use of the extra 1000 rpm now delivered by the engine.
The Ferrari FXX is not homologated for road use and there are no plans to compete with it either. In fact, the Ferrari FXX prototype is designed exclusively for track driving as part of a specific R&D programme agreed with a selected group of just over 20 clients involving 14 group test sessions and 14 private ones in the last two years.

Lamborghini Estoque Concept review
The Estoque is the first decidedly new model to come from Lamborghini in several years. The Italian super sports car maker's current line, consisting of only the top of the line Lamborghini Murcielago and the smaller Gallardo, plays things relatively safe as supercar makers go.

Or to put it into figures - the concept painted in an all new color, is 5.15 meters (16.89 feets) long and 1.99 meters (6.53 feets) wide, with a height of only 1.35 metres (4.43 feets). The wheelbase is a stately 3.01 meters (9.88 feets) - an equally important element of elegant vehicle architecture.
