Investigators Uncover Multi-Million Pound Tax Scam in India; European Exotics And Foreign Diplomats
In what sounds more like the plot of a The Fast and the Furious movie than real life, investigators at India’s Directorate of Revenue Intelligence office (a.k.a. India’s IRS) have uncovered a massive exotic car smuggling operation in the nation’s capital of New Dehli. It all has to do with India’s notorious 100% import tax on new luxury vehicles.It began with one New Dehli luxury car dealer,

2020 Maserati GT Garbin Concept
Jaime Cervantes, Andrea Coccia, and Chetan Rajput, a trio of students from the Transportation Design at the Politecnico di Milano in Italy, have come up with a design study that is fit to wear the Maserati crown. Under the guidance of Fiat, these students chose to create a design study of what a Maserati GranTurismo inspired vehicle would look like in 2020 with a throwback to the Maserati

Maserati MC12
Maserati MC12
Origem: Wikipédia, a enciclopédia livre.
| Maserati MC12 | |
 | |
| Construtor: | Maserati |
|---|---|
| Produção: | 2004 — 2005 (50 unidades) |
| Classe: | superesportivo |
| Layout: | Grand tourer |
| Motor: | V12 |
| Modelos similares: | Pagani Zonda Saleen S7 Koenigsegg CCX Porsche Carrera GT Ferrari Enzo |
O Maserati MC12 é um automóvel superdeportivo produzido pela fabricante italiana Maserati durante os anos 2004 e 2005 para competir no Campeonato FIA GT, um campeonato de gran turismo organizado pela Federação Internacional do Automóvel.
Em seu primeiro ano de produção fabricaram-se 30 unidades, das quais 5 não eram para a venda; ao ano seguinte, fabricaram-se 30 mais, resultando um total de 60 unidades produzidas em dois anos. Venderam-se 50 carros por 600.000 € a clientes selecionados.
O MC12 usa o chassis do Ferrari Enzo, mas é maior em todas suas dimensões. Seu motor de gasolina é um V12 atmosférico de 6.0 litros de cilindrada, quatro válvulas por cilindro e 632 CV de potência máxima. A velocidade máxima do MC12 é de 330 km/h, contra os 350 km/h do Ferrari Enzo.
O MC12 colocou a volta de Maserati à competição após 37 anos de ausência.
A versão de rua foi produzida com a finalidade de poder homologar a versão de corridas, dado que um dos requisitos para a participação no campeonato FIA GT é a produção de, ao menos, 25 veículos de rua. Assim, três modelos GT1 do MC12 participaram no campeonato FIA GT obtendo bons resultados, entre eles um primeiro posto em 2004 na corrida de Zhuhai, China. Em 2005, os MC12 correram na American Le Mans Series, mas sofreram penalizações por exceder do tamanho máximo permitido.
Motor
O MC12 tem um motor V12 derivado do Ferrari Enzo de 232 kg (511 lb), seis litros (5.998 cc 366 cu in), montado a 65°. A cada cilindro tem quatro válvulas, lubricadas por um sistema de cárter seco e com uma relação de compressão de 11.2:1. Tudo isto combinado proporciona um par motor máximo de 652 Nm (481 lbf·ft) a 5.500 rpm e uma potência máxima de 465 Kw (632 PS / 621 CV) a 7.500 rpm. A linha vermelha das revoluções está em 7.500, apesar de ser seguro chegar até 7.700 (o Ferrari Enzo tem a linha vermelha nas 8.200 revoluções).
O Maserati MC12 pode acelerar de 0 a 100 km/h (62 mph) em 3,8 segundos (ainda que numa prova da revista Motor Trend conseguiu-se em 3,7 segundos) e chegar a 200 km/h (125 mph) em 9,9 segundos. O MC12 pode completar o quarto de milha começando parado em 11,3 segundos com uma velocidade final de 200 km/h (125 mph) ou um quilômetro em 20,1 segundos. A velocidade máxima do Maserati MC12 é de 330 km/h (205 mph).
A potência é transmitida às rodas por uma transmissão semiautomática de seis velocidades montada na parte trasera. Como já se disse, a caixa de mudanças é a mesma que a do Ferrari Enzo, modificada para ter uma relação de marchas diferente e com o novo nome de "Maserati Cambiocorsa". Proporciona um tempo de mudança de 150 milisegundos. É mecânica com embraiagem de duas platos de 215 milímetros (8,5 pulgadas).

Maserati granturismo/Maserati mc corse granturismo modern car which is issued by a Maserati with a more luxurious design
maserati granturismo mc corse Maserati mc corse granturismo modern car which is issued by a Maserati with a more luxurious design
Maserati GranTurismo coupe and convertible are undoubtedly some of the most beautiful GT cars on the road. This new car, looking to the casual observer, like the GranTurismo tin top, too. But look a little closer and you’ll start to know exactly what this car really is.
Our spy photographers are not sure what the car is, nor are we – although judging by the large rear spoiler and more centrally mounted dual exhausts, this could be a mule for a high performance version of the GranTurismo more. The standard car has quad exhaust pipes
more fitted to the corners of the rear facade, rear diffuser and a slightly different sub-carts too.
An even more performance GranTurismo does not look very well at first, like the GranTurismo S has already fulfilled that role. The GranTurismo MC S Line Sport car limited edition for the Middle East was the ante a bit, though. But the real tell-tale signs from the GranTurismo MC Corse GT4 race car that has the same configuration and arrangement of exhaust spoiler as the spied car, while the road version here does not have the extreme front and rear splitter / diffuser combination found on the race car. This might suggest a street-legal version of the pilot, not unlike the BMW M3 GTS. We’re not sure how that would sit down with the bosses at Ferrari Fiat franchise partner, but it is certainly a welcome idea for us.

Maserati had its flagship GranTurismo S to even higher levels of performance with the creation of the GranTurismo MC Concept.
Designed just like a track day special, it boasts significant changes in style are designed to improve aerodynamic efficiency, without spoiling the elegant lines of the original model.
The Maserati Corse Concept features two large air intakes designed to improve the flow of air from the engine and brakes, combination air input / output integrated into the bonnet and guard pumped to accommodate the biggest clue.
The side profile underwent extensive aerodynamic testing and incorporates new side air vents connected to the side skirts similar to the Nissan GT-R to channel hot air from the engine compartment around the car.
The rear exit dual exhaust has integrated into the rear diffuser and spoiler to a much steeper angle to complement the effects of aerodynamic splitter added new front.
Maserati Racing Department engineers almost completely removed all traces of the original interior to save weight and added an FIA approved roll cage, Sparco racing wheel, racing seats and carbon panel and control console.
Corse Concept runs a highly tuned version of the 4.7-liter V8 engine of the GranTurismo S, which now develops 510 Nm and 330.9kW to 4,750 rpm.
This was achieved by installing a high performance system air consumption combined with an exhaust system equipped with a catalytic converter type of race.
The end result is a total weight of less than 1,400 kg and a power to weight ration of less than 4.2 kg / kW.

2012 Maserati Sport Cars GranTurismo MC Stradale
The Italian automaker announced the 2012 Maserati Sport Cars GranTurismo MC Stradale, that it will debut the lightest and most powerful variation of the GranTurismo, at this year's 2010 Paris Motor Show. Maserati said the car will boast "razor-sharp handling and will break the 300km/h [187mph] barrier", adding that the reworked body also produces more aerodynamic down force without producing more aerodynamic drag.
2012 Maserati Sport Cars Gran Turismo MC Stradale looks sporty, the bumper and grille has been redesigned. The car also has a large diffuser to improve performance. Inspired by the Trofeo GranTurismo MC and the race-winning GT4 motorsport models, the two-seater 2012 Maserati Sport Cars GranTurismo MC Stradale that will debut at the Paris Auto Show. GranTurismo MC Stradale high-performance model and will be on sale next spring, with £ 105,000 prize.
2012 Maserati Sport Cars GranTurismo MC Stradale
2012 Maserati Sport Cars GranTurismo MC Stradale is in the GranTurismo S. The basis is seen in power, it features a 4.7L V8 engine, maximum power of 336kw. Corresponds to a 6-speed manual transmission with mechanical top speed to 300 km / h, the 0-100km / h acceleration of about 4.5 seconds.
The Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale responds to demands for a GranTurismo which can balance on-road driving needs with race-driving desires, incorporating the handling and aerodynamic lessons from Maserati's three racing programs.
No other details were given on the car but the official photos show a raft of styling upgrades including the new front end with a lower spoiler and additional air ducts, chunkier side skirts, possibly larger front fenders with new air vents, a boot lid spoiler and a new rear bumper with a diffuser and twin central exhaust pipes plus unique alloy wheels.
