February’s car of the month takes it to the next level.

Car of the Month: Porsche 911 Turbo & BMW M6

Cette Porsche est définitivement la voiture la plus rapide que nous n’avons jamais mit l’œil dessus. Avec 620 bhp distribués aux quatre roues, l’accélération est comparable à la plus part des motos super-sports. La M6 n’est pas rien non plus, elle est probablement la deuxième voiture la plus rapide que nous avons publiée. Ces deux voitures se complimentent bien les unes envers l’autre, elles étaient d’ailleurs exposé au kiosque Toyz Autoart au SCP8.
