That's right folks, the German tuning legend that is Gemballa has risen once more and its first project is from the company that made them what they are; Porsche. Sadly, while the company came back to life, their founder Uwe Gemballa wasn't so lucky. A sad moment that, but we must move on. Gemballa's return to tuning couldn't have been...

Tuning companies are always supposed to come up with the next big thing, another wow moment, a new take on a car's aesthetics and performance.

I am a BMW fan but I reckon that even so, I will almost never come to terms with the way the BMW X6 looks. It's so unnatural, it's like a Swedish bikini model that's taken up bodybuilding. If I were ever to like some sort of "evening gown" in which it'd look good it would almost certainly be this...

After seeing the captivation people have with the 911 GT2 RS and it's tuning versions, Nissan took a deep breath and told us about the new specs of their 2012 GT-R. The 2012 Nissan GT-R serves up apparently modest changes but all of those added together make for a big difference. The 2012 Nissan GT-R sports the same 3.8 liter...
The Alfa Romeo Giulietta has been around for a while now yet tuning for it hasn't been what you'd call revolutionary.

The new front...
The British made Land Rover Defender met up with the German tuning company Startech and they started to fool around. The end result isn't that bad but it's not exactly poetic. Perhaps it's because I was expecting somewhat more serious modifications from the 2010 Essen Motor Show. Perhaps it's just because I'm not very familiar with the Land Rover Defender....
