Inheritance

Inheritance

We see a lot of videos here at Webrides, but few are as well put together as the flick after the jump. Produced by Dylan Osbourn to illustrate the GT-R’s prowess and tell a story at the same time, the plot follows a black-sheep daughter as she tries to claim her inheritance via a family-wide race. The competitors include a Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen, a Morgan, Porsche 911 Turbo and a Nissan GT-R. There’s some sweet fender to fender action, plenty of gorgeous metal and clever camera work, too. Props to Osbourn. Check out the video after the jump. [Source: GTRBlog]

Fesler Moss 3

Now this is a fun on. It looks like Jon Moss and Chris Fesler have partnered for a brand-spanking new competition package for the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro. The list of tricks include a 30-way adjustable suspension, plenty of carbon fiber and huge sway bars. Of course, the biggest news is the fact that you can opt for a potent LS7 V8 or an even more maniacal supercharged LS9 as your powerplant. Styling cues are abundant too, including blacked out headlights and taillights. If that’s not gorgeous, we don’t know what is. Check out the gallery for more shots. [Source: Carscoop]

2010 Subaru Outback

Believe it or not, I don’t have cable. Or satellite TV. I’m almost positive television and the products sold via infomercial could be used as irrefutable evidence that humanity has run its course. Don’t believe me? See: Snuggie. When you find yourself confounded or outwitted by a rectangular piece of cloth, odds are your genes should have been expunged from the face of the Earth long, long ago. Evidently Subaru agrees with me, and has produced what has to be one of the best car commercials of the year to promote the new Outback. Hop the jump to see for yourself. [Source: GayWheels]

McChip Porsche Panamera

If you’re a Porsche Panamera owner – or future owner – odds are you aren’t entirely focused on squeezing the absolute most horsepower out of your four-door. If you are, there are as many tuners out there waiting to take care of your every need as there are ties in your closet. We can now add the German Wrenches at McChip to that lengthy list. The tuner says it can eek an extra 50 horsepower from the turbo version of the car – for a price. How much? Those ponies will set you back around $2,200. That, sirs, is what we in the business refer to as a diminishing return. [Source: WCF]

Subaru Forester

Few motorsports arenas are as brutal as the Paris-Dakar race. Though the rally now takes place from Argentina-Chile, it still covers some of the most unforgiving terrain on the planet. Now it looks like Subaru is headed to battle. The company has teamed up with Elaion to prove just how tough its Forester is. Details on what’s under the hood is sketchy at best, but you can tell from the video after the jump there’s some serious suspension at work, as well as plenty of carbon fiber. As an owner of a 2004 2.5 XT Forester, I completely approve. [Source: YouTube]

Kalis

We were fortunate enough to catch up with crazed DC skater Josh Kalis at SEMA. The guy has one of the hottest 1969 Camaro’s we’ve ever seen. When the boost is just right, this sucker lays down over 1,000 horsepower at the wheels. That’s right, this sucker has Veyron-besting pep. Forget the ZR1, we found the perfect Bow Tie for us. Kalis was kind enough to chat with us about his wicked ride, including just how much work went into building the car. Maybe next time he’ll let us take it around the block. Whadda ya say, Josh?

MTM Audi TT RS

MTM TT RS 3

Leave it to MTM to make the already too good to be true Audi TT RS even better. The company will let you pick between three levels of insanity, topping out with a tune that bumps power up to around 424 ponies. A reworked ECU, new downpipe and exhaust throttle valve help free up the horsepower. MTM has also thrown on a set of meaty looking wheels and spacers for a kick-ass stance. Perfect. If you want a closer look, check out the gallery for some more shots. [Source: ZerCustoms]

Clarkson in Flippers

We’re sure there was some sort of incredibly hilarious point to the video after the jump, we just can’t seem to figure it out for ourselves at the moment. You see, in it, Jeremy Clarkson has called out The Stig itself for a challenge involving some apex, apple-crushing glory. But they’re both wearing ridiculous footwear. Hop the jump to see for yourself. Let us know if you can translate the ridiculousness. [Source: Autoblog]

911 SC

The Porsche Experience Center has worked up a unique new offering for 911 enthusiasts. To illustrate just how Germany’s most iconic sports car has grown over the years, the center has started a new program where drivers can sample the 911 from various generations. Want to slide behind the steering wheel of the 911 your dad drove? No problem. To celebrate, the Experience Center has worked up an awesome contest that lets you try to match the sounds of some infamous flat motors to their respective owners. Check it out here, and have a look at a few of the cars in the 911 Evolution program after the jump. [Source: GermanCarBlog]

Suzuki GSXR

Now this is awesome. Some enterprising soul decided to not only build his own Suzuki GSXR from scratch, but to make a stop-motion animation of the assembly in the process. Usually I’m too busy cursing and loosing parts while powering through any project to take time to stop and do something creative. The clip is really well done and leaves us wondering exactly what we have to do to talk our parts into assembling themselves while we have a beer. Hop the jump for a look-see. [Source: YouTube]
