The AlfaBeast: Custom bike with a Alfa Romeo 2.5-liter V6


The AlfaBeast is powered by an Alfa Romeo late 1970's 2.5-liter V6 engine that is said to churn out 156 horsepower. The one-off bike was created by Chris Barber who fitted the Alfa V6 on a Kraftec frame. There are six individual exhaust pipes (three on each side) while the Weber carburetors breath through a set of pipes that stick out from the gas tank.

The 2.5-liter V6 engine is hooked up to a 4-speed transmission from a Harley Davidson while the forks and braking system are sourced from a Kawasaki ZXR-750 superbike.

Bespoke Murcielago LP650-4 Roadster in matte black


This Beverly Hills owner of the No2/50 Murcielago LP650-4 Roadster has taken it upon himself to modify the already rare car.

All 50 Murcielago LP650-4 Roadsters were finished in a gray shade accented by orange styling touches, something that the owner didn't like. The supercar was stripped down to the metal and the complete interior was removed in order to apply a matte black paint job with gloss black highlights.

The roadster was also fitted with a set of custom made, 19-inch GFG three-piece forged alloy wheels with a glossy black outer lip, matte black center and orange highlights. The rims are shod in Pirelli P-Zero 245/30/19 front and 355/25/19 rear tires.

Other mods include a one-of-a-kind audio system with Focal Utopia KIT 7 component 3-way speakers that are powered by two Alpine PDX series amplifiers totaling over 1600 watts of power, and an Escort SRX radar detector with the main controller mounted on the center console.

The bespoke Lambo keeps the factory model's 6.5-liter V12 mid-mounted engine with 650HP intact.

Chrome Lamborghini Murcielago LP640


This monstrosity was seen in London a few weeks back. It's probably melted by now, or at least, the engine probably overheated after hitting 30mph...
