Yet another tuning shop to put blowers on a R8... article mentions that MTM "is currently exploring the construction of an R8 that would deliver 1,000 horses for a Swedish customer"

 

 

48k for this one including the carbon fiber package:

Nice clean job! Better than the paint scheme on that other SLR, that's for sure!

Definitely not feeling the wheels, and I wonder what that kit looks like on a car with a color that would really show the lines..

I think the styling is phenomenal AND functional; that's key.

 

 

The leather in the engine bay is just silly. The big comfy sofa-like seats don't look like they belong.

 

 

 

Bottom line: Bad-ass R8. They were right in that 420 hp is just not enough for such a great car. But $48,000 isn't the right price either. Wonder what the blower itself costs.
