CM Model McLaren P1 GTR – Tracktool FEATURETTE
Return of the GTR after 20 years… The first McLaren with the GTR designation was the McLaren F1 GTR, which won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1995. The 2015 race car version of the McLaren P1 embodies the manufacturer’s “form follows function” concept formula, as you can see from the athletic bodywork that this super sports car can boast record-breaking figures. The GTR version of the McLaren P1 is not road legal, but it doesn’t need to be. All the better, you don’t have to worry about road legality with a 1:64 scale CM model! An absolute unique silhouette of the McLaren P1 GTR Owners of the McLaren…

Tarmacworks Pagani Huayra R – A revolutionary FEATURETTE
Beyond the limits! Another Pagani which is exclusively developed for the race track: With the Huayra R, the Italian sports car brand presents, in its own words, the “most extreme Pagani of all time”. Just like the Zonda R shown in 2009, the hardcore version of the Huayra is built only for the race track and comes with a completely newly developed engine, the Pagani V12-R. 850 hp and 750 Nm of maximum torque at a top speed while 9000 rpm meet a kerb weight of only 1050 kilos. The only components that have been taken over from the “normal” road-going Huayra are the exterior mirrors. Compared to the Huayra…

Hot Wheels 1982 Lamborghini Countach LP500S – A MILESTONE FEATURETTE
Countach…a shout of excitement! An appropriate interpretation for the name of the Lamborghini Miura successor! The Countach broke all traditions with its aggressive and very angular design and was at the same time a symbolic design language figure of the 80ies! The hot outfit of the gull-winged flounder matched the driving performance even better: Even the very first LP400 model (1974-78) sprinted to 100 km/h in astonishing 5.4 seconds. A total number of 375 hp from a 4 litre V12 were absolute top values at that time! In 16 years of production, several model variations and performance upgrades were made until the final model called “25th Anniversary” has ended an…

MiniGT Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport – A ROCKETSHIP FEATURETTE
A star was born! In early summer 2016, the car company based in Molsheim, France, left fans and supercar enthusiasts speechless with a very special announcement! Bugatti is launching a successor to the Veyron, which will eclipse everything with even more incredible performance data: 1500 hp, 440 km/h top speed and just over 2 seconds from zero to 100! Around 450 units were to be produced within three years. Its modernised 8-litre 16-cylinder W engine produced around 300 hp more than the aforementioned now legendary Chiron, which already broke records in its day. At that time at 2016, the basic price was over 2.65 million euros to place an order…

Tarmacworks Ferrari 488 GT3 BPGT Series 2018 – Special Edition FEATURETTE
A toast to its exclusivity! „It’s shiny, it’s special, it’s fast: Of course because it’s a Ferrari!“, a typical statement when it comes to evaluating the cars from Maranello in the heart of Italy. Except for the fast part as mentioned before, we can fully agree! The Ferrari 488 GT3 shone more with its eye-catching Singha livery than with victories on the race track during the Blancpain GT Series 2018. The strikingly beautiful yellow-blue-white Singha beer livery of the team TP 12 – Kessel Racing was the ideal reason for Tarmacworks (teamed up with IXO-models) to take up the cause and give this special model a try. The Special Edition…
