Pagani Zonda R: A $1.8 Million Farewell Party


As the finale in the Zonda line, the Pagani Zonda R brings the heat with a 739 HP 6.0-liter V12, weight chopped down to 2,360 pounds and a 0-to-60 time of three seconds.

It's been a good run, the Pogani Zonda has stoked many a supercar fantasy and plasters the walls of garages and bedrooms everywhere, but all good things must come to an end. The Zonda R is that end and the Zonda is not fading quietly into history. Everything gets turned up to eleven with this final model, 739 HP 6.0-liter V12, 0-to-60 times of three seconds, and a blistering top speed of 233 MPH.

The car also spares no expense, wearing top shelf parts made of titanium and carbon fiber, and the price shows. Only 15 Zonda R's will be available to the public for a mind-blowing $1.8 million, and they're building one extra to keep at the factory. Guess if you're going to go out, you go out big.

2012 Mercedes-Benz SLS Roadster Gullwing


Mercedes Gullwing supercar loses its trademark doors and roof, transforming into a ragtop roadster with just regular doors. If that’s not enough, AMG has said it will weigh the same as the coupe but will feature a lower center of gravity.Just as the coupe verision it will have a 6.2-liter V-8 (563 horsepower, 479 pound-feet of torque) connected to a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox. When it appears in spring 2011, expect it to cost about $250,000.

Geneva 2011: Sbarro's Evoluzione vs. Lamborghini


This year at the Geneva Motor Show, Espera Sbarro design school, has made a cool car for us. Just for show, 25 students made a car in thirteen weeks. Took a 180 hp engine from an Audi. They called the car 'the Evoluzione".

Top 3 Diesel Sedans under $5000


#1. 1984-1989 Mercedes-Benz 300sd
This car is a Mercedes period. It is a bit old, but still looks good, got a little bit of power especially from the turbo. It's a five cylinder, and will last you a lifetime. Wish they made these in a 5 speed manual at least. Quality interior, quality engine just the way Mercedes was meant to be. Ranging from $1500-$3500. This car has been tested by Zsports Cars at 26 mpg avg, 32 on thehwy and 24 in the city.

#2. 1980-1983 Mercedes-Benz 240D
This car is a bad example of Mercedes luxury, it is pretty basic. But looking at other cars in this era in the same class, this one is 5 times better then the rest. The 240D has the 4 cylinder diesel engine which is famous for being name "the million mile engine". Only 68hp from production, so after about thirty only about 57hp left. Pretty slow, we tested the 4 speed manual. Nice interior, looks best in black. The black interior never gets old. The price for this car ranges from $1000 to $2000 at the most. This car has been tested by Zsports Cars at 28 mpg avg, 36 on the highway and 28 in the city.


#3. 1998 Jetta TDI
This car has bad styling, bad interior quality, bad paint job, considered it is a German car. The only thing that shows it's a German Car is the engine. Reported to get 40 mpg, but we haven't tested it yet so can't guarantee it. But based on the 300sd and 240d reports from other people saying they get 40 mpg, we can say that they are all a little bit over exagerating. It has an inline-4 engine and comes in a 4 speed automatic, or 5 speed manual. This car has not been tested by Zsports Cars, only word of mouth.

2012 Nissan Esflow Concept - Geneva Motor Show


This year at the Geneva Motor Show their seems to be a lot of hype about electric cars, the coolest so far has been by Nissa, name the Esflow. It can go from 0-60mph in under 5 seconds and the fully charged battery will last you 150 miles. The best thing about these new electric cars is that the weight of the car is the same every day all day, unlike gasoline powered cars weigh more when it is filled up or weighing less when empty. The interior is all leather and suede, so it is not peta friendly.
