BMW M3 GTS - Nurburgring Test Drive

I have to say that the BMW M3 GTS is causing me to finally start liking the e92 M3's.  Sue they have no low-end torque, weight too much, and are too complex, but when you rip out half the junk, bolt on a front splitter and rear wing, and paint the whole thing orange, it becomes a little more interesting.

Ferrari 599XX production-derived sports car record at the Nordschleife - 6:58.16

The Ferrari 599XX is the first ever production-derived sports car to break the 7-minute barrier on the classic 20.832 km Nordschleife circuit, lapping in 6 min 58.16 sec. Now some might question the definition of "production-derived ", but this is a pretty awesome lap. Enjoy!
