2014 Lamborghini Veneno Car Reviews & Specs

The Lamborghini Veneno is a $4 million supercar that will only have 3 examples created. Where does the name Veneno come from? It means “venom” in Spanish, a fitting name for this car considering those headlights look like mean snake fangs. Am I right?
The Veneno is built on the Aventador’s chassis and uses a 6.5-liter V12, good for 740bhp. Mated to the monster engine is a 7-speed semi-automatic transmission. Inside the Veneno is a full carbon-fiber monocoque that is not only lightweight, but also incredibly sturdy. The seats are made of Lamborghini’s Forged Composite and laid throughout the interior is the light woven carbon-fiber CarbonSkin®.
Each Veneno will feature a green, red or white color scheme to celebrate the cars Italian heritage. Want to reserve one of the three Venenos? Unfortunately, three buyers have already put down their deposits.

New Honda Civic Type R make its global debut at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show

Honda has released a dramatic new picture of the all-new Honda City Type R, which will make its global debut at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show

With the Geneva Motor show just a forthnight away, Honda has teased the first ever picture of the new 2015 Honda Civic Type R. The Honda Civic Type R is one of the most legendary hot hatchbacks in the world and is often said to be one of the best front-wheel-drive cars made. Currently in its 4th generation, the new 5th generation Honda Civic Type R, which will officially go on sale in 2015 and make its much-awaited global debut at the Geneva Motor show.

The Honda Civic Type R has always features the VTEC (Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control) and later iVTEC engine, which uses different camshaft profiles to produce extra power when it's needed. This new model should be quicker and more efficient than before, thanks to the new Turbo VTEC engines but should make the car a very different beast to drive as compared to older generations of this legendary hot hatchback. The 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine is expected to produce about 300PS of power and 400Nm of peak torque. 0-100kmph times are expected to be around the 6 second mark making it go up against the equally capable Volkswagen Golf GTi.
