7 Series Feature

By Andrew Nabors –  November 01, 2017

Why You Should Buy A BMW 7 Series

Are you feeling lucky? If not, perhaps you need more 7 in your daily life. The 4th prime number has been venerated since homo sapiens started counting. BMW launched the 7 series in 1977. It has been a luxury sedan that has served as BMW's flagship for four decades. Many features of all new cars were first seen on the 7 Series.Here is a short list: Curtain Airbags Onboard Computer CAN-Bus Electronics Xenon Headlights Dual-Zone Climate Control Now that we have your attention, the latest 7 Series is just as innovative as its predecessors. The 6th generation arrived for the 2016 model year. It is the first BMW with a 3D scanner inside. It tracks the driver in order to respond to gestures instead of causing a distraction. Almost all vehicle controls can be accessed by the key, which allows the driver to walk away as it parks itself. It has active sway bars and all-wheel steering for the ultimate grip and tight cornering.It is offered with engines ranging from an inline four, inline six, V12 and twin-turbo V8. Unlike the competition, even the top-dog Alpina B7 can be had with All Wheel Drive. With 600 horsepower available, it reaches 60 mph in 3.6 seconds with a top speed of 193 mph. It arrives with every safety and performance feature you could dream of, but the secret is hidden much deeper.From the invention of the automobile, every full-size car has been made of metal. Either steel or aluminum and recently we've noticed composite panels on the upper-level cars. BMW has upset the entire industry. The new 7 Series is mostly carbon-fiber. Taking lessons learned on the i3 and i8, the 7 Series is unlike anything on the road. It has high-strength steel for the safety cage, but the carbon-based chassis is lighter and stronger than any other sedan. This allows it to have a lower center of gravity than any other full-size car. It moves, turns, and handles like something 1/3rd its size. It's hard to describe how different it feels than anything else on the road.The BMW 7 Series is where normal cars will be in 20 years. All the power and all the amenities pale in comparison to the solid structure and the agility it offers. A few seconds behind the wheel and you will understand what sets it apart.

Aventador S Feature

By Andrew Nabors –  August 31, 2017

Why You Should Buy A Lamborghini Aventador S

Even the best knives need occasional sharpening, so Lamborghini has unleashed an updated version of their flagship: the Aventador S. By carefully studying the efficiency of the engine’s air flow, the variable camshaft timing and intake manifolds have been massaged to deliver more horsepower. The 2017 Aventador S for sale arrives with 730 horsepower and 509 lb-ft of torque. A top speed of 217 mph is achieved by raising the red line from 8,350 rpm to a screaming 8,500 rpm. It is Lamborghini’s first production car with rear-wheel steering. Redefine your limits. Incredible Aventador S spec we just delivered. Let your eyes feast! #prestigeimports #lamborghinimiami #aventadorS A post shared by Prestige Imports (@prestigeimports) on Aug 31, 2017 at 7:50am PDT On the inside, a new TFT gauge cluster has multiple modes that will prioritize the display for track or street. The most anticipated new features include Apple CarPlay and magnetic suspension. The first keeps you connected, and the second will keep you disconnected from rough roads. The Aventador SV will remain the hardcore model, so the Aventador S offers the perfect blend of performance and comfort. In terms of value, the Aventador S price is comparable to other V12 supercars. Specs Price: $399,500 Engine: 6.5-liter V12 Horsepower: 730 Torque: 509 lb-ft Top Speed: 217 mph 0-60 mph: 2.8 seconds Transmission: 7-Speed Single Clutch Weight: 3,472 lb With more power and steering response, the Aventador S needed more grip. The new front end has a more aggressive splitter to keep air from going under the car, and two giant scoops to cool the brakes. The front end has 130 percent more downforce, and the revised rear has up to 400 percent more, thanks to a new three-position spoiler. To cool the more powerful engine, most of the rear body has been redesigned to force more air into the radiators. Increasing grip also forces more stress on the tires, so Pirelli has delivered a new version of their sticky P-Zero. You should buy one because cars like this are usually hard to drive. Rear steering makes it corner like a shopping cart.You should buy one because cars like this are usually hard to drive. Rear steering makes it corner like a shopping cart. As a brief automotive anecdote, the Milwaukee Auto Show takes place at the Wisconsin Center. Each car must pass through narrow corridors with several right-angle turns. If every car was rear-steer, it would save hours of time and stress. Another equally important innovation is the magnetic suspension. Our nation's roads are crumbling around us. Broken pavement will ruin your day and damage the fragile undercarriageĀ of high-performance cars. Magnetic shocks make adjustments several thousand times per second, and they can instantly adjust for potholes or ruts. If the left front wheel takes a dip, the three other shocks are tuned to adjust each corner before the cockpit is affected. The experience is hard to relate in words, so you must experience to believe us.Lamborghini Aventador S For Sale

Lamborghini Veneno

By Edward Jones –  February 28, 2017

Why You Should Buy a Lamborghini Veneno

Released in 2013, the Lamborghini Veneno was created to celebrate the automaker's 50th anniversary. The name for the supercar follows Lamborghini's history of naming models after fighting bulls.Ā Lamborghini has statedĀ that Veneno, which is Spanish for poison, is the name of one of the strongest, most aggressive and fastest fighting bulls ever. A bull that became particularly famous after it fatally wounded the famous torero JosĆ© SĆ”nchez RodrĆ­guez during the bullfight in the arena SanlĆŗcar de Barrameda’s, Andalusia, Spain.When it was first released, the Veneno was pinned as a $4 million car. Now, why would someone buy such an expensive car off of the production line? I'll tell you. View Listing Exclusivity - One of the most important aspects about the Veneno is how rare it is. Only five examples of the coupe version were ever made, with two staying in Lamborghini's hands and three being sold to customers. However, nine Veneno Roadsters were also made. With such a low production number, this is the kind of car that will see appreciation throughout the years. Style - One look at the Lamborghini Veneno and you'll soon come to the conclusion that nothing like it exists on the road. In the front, two long headlights curve with the car, mimicking a snake's fangs. Additionally, a majority of the car's styling looks like it came from Le Mans Prototype cars, including the lights and rear wing. Power - Sitting in the engine bay of the Veneno is a 6.5-liter V12 engine. This powerhouse is capable of producing 740 bhp and 507 lb-ft of torque. Mated to this engine is an ISR (Independent Shifting Roads) seven-speed transmission and an all-wheel drive system. When all components are powered up, the Veneno will run from 0-60 mph in 2.9 seconds and hit a top speed of 221 mph. The Veneno is most definitely one of the most powerful vehicles Lamborghini has ever created. Lightweight - Lamborghini decided to build the Veneno on a carbon fiber frame, allowing them to keep its weight low while also maintaining rigidity. There are other weight saving aspects within the Veneno, including the bucket seats made of Lamborghini's patented Forged Composite and the carbon fiber CarbonSkin used to dress the cockpit, seats and headliner. Each of these elements drop the weight of the CoupeĀ down to 3,197 hp. Resale - As I mentioned earlier, the Veneno will more than likely see appreciation in its value throughout the years. The reason for this is due to the points I've previously stated and many more. If you're looking for a car that will be the star of your collection and also act as an investment, the Veneno is a solid bet. Buy Now

R8 Daytona

By Andrew Nabors –  July 25, 2016

Why You Should Buy An Audi R8

If you need the abilities of Superman along with the disguise of Clark Kent, Audi has unleashed a completely new R8 for 2017. It took the world by surprise in 2008 because nobody expected Audi to build a rear engined car. Initially offered with a 4.2L V8, a 5.2L V10 joined the lineup in 2010. Sharing many components with the Lamborghini Gallardo, the first generation was offered as a coupe or convertible (spyder) with manual or single clutch automatic transmissions. The new model was designed alongside the Huracan, but the differences are much more pronounced than its predecessor. The Audi R8 V10Ā is produced by the legendary quattro division in a separate factory from their conventional models. In keeping with Audi's emphasis on safety, the body makes use of an incredibly stiff aluminum space frame. The engine is rear-mid mounted, placed directly behind the cockpit. If you think drifting is fun, R8 is not the car for you. quattro AWD uses three electronic differentials to ration the power at each wheel, which preserves traction in almost every situation. In our showroom sits a 2012 R8 Spyder that has been part of the collection since new. It looks rather unassuming next to an Aston Martin One-77 and Porsche 918 Spyder, but that's the point. R8 is as civilized as a dinner party until you provoke the accelerator. Back in 2013, I was given the difficult task of delivering the car to Prestige Imports in Miami for a promotional event. Our office is only 267 miles away but I will not disclose how long it took to get there. Needless to say, I arrived ahead of schedule. The automatic will kick down several gears at once, allowing you to overtake other cars like they are standing still. One of the few supercars with American sized cup holders, the interior is well designedĀ for a long distance trip. A comfortable suspension soaks up any broken pavement and a well-insulated top will make you forget its a convertible. Power is normally sent to the rear wheels which makes steering effort quick and light. The automatic shifts as smooth as a Buick in city driving, but it becomes Thor's hammer at wide open throttle. R8 can transform from mild mannered to maniacal in under a second, which is why it has brake rotors larger than a trash can. Panic stops rarely invoke ABS and the pedal offers great feedback. It offers more ground clearance and greater visibility than any other supercar, and the front storage compartment is large enough for a weekend trip. The most sensible car at this power level is also reliable. It has only undergone major service last year, to address a fuel pump that was covered by recall. The R8 has evolved over the years, with incremental changes to the interior and infotainment systems. Production numbers are lower than other cars in this category, which supports their strong resale value. Many other supercars have come and gone from our collection over the years, but the R8 isn't going anywhere. Drive one for yourself and see why it's too good to give up. Search R8's For Sale

Why You Should Buy A Lamborghini MurciƩlago

Sometimes it feels good to be bad. If you have ever empathized with Tony Montana, allow us to explain why the world needs automotive antagonists. It offers no apologies for styling or performance, and that is how it brought the brand into the modern era. We have had the opportunity to sell countless versions of these raging bulls, and here is why it should be your next car. Lamborghini Murciélago LP 640 RoadsterIn our travels among the Italian exotic community, Murcielago owners share a unique camaraderie. Unlike the Aventador, the Murcielago is not over-engineered. Oil changes and a majority of routine service can be done in your driveway. Instead of an integrated infotainment system that cannot be modified, the Murci has a normal single DIN radio and 4 speakers. Upgrading to aftermarket audio is easily done, and it will sound better than any new car on the market. Lamborghini Murciélago LP 670-4 SuperveloceIf you are in the market for a new Italian exotic, they are only available with two pedals. Manual transmissions are an endangered species, but Murcielago was built with a solid six-speed gearbox. Nothing comes close to the sound and feel of a gated shifter, and the clutch pedal is in the perfect location. Lamborghini Murciélago LP 650-4 RoadsterThe Aventador is a great car, but it sacrifices low-speed acceleration because it is geared for land speed racing. Above 150 mph is where it really shines. But Murcielago has a shorter final drive, which puts more power to the ground at legal speeds. Aventador will not let you approach its limits thanks to several traction control and stability systems. Murcielago requires you to know how far it can be pushed. Lamborghini Murciélago RoadsterLamborghini produced 4,099 cars between 2001 and 2010 with several special editions and a Roadster. Styling and engines were updated in 2007 with the launch of the LP640, but the early cars have a cult following. If you need a supercar that keeps you connected to the road without breaking the bank, take a look at the great listing from our dealers to find the one that is right for you.Murcielago For Sale Lamborghini Murciélago

Why You Should Buy A Ferrari 458

If you are in need of a sensible & fun investment for a daily driver, have you considered the Ferrari 458? With a production run from 2010 to 2015, it served as a mid-level offering, in between the F12 Berlinetta and the California. It's probably the last Ferrari V8 to be naturally aspirated, so if you have an aversion to turbochargers, this is the car for you.Small engines with turbos are now a dominant trend in the industry thanks to emissions and fuel economy regulations. But forced induction is not a replacement for displacement. The 458 packs a 4.5L V8 which can rev to a screaming 9,000 rpm. Sometimes nostalgia should have precedence over technology, and in a few years we will be longing for traditional V8 power.Ferrari 458 Variants: 458 Italia 458 Spider 458 Speciale 458 Speciale Aperta 458 Challenge 458 Italia GT2 458 Italia GT3 458 Italia Grand-Am 458 MM Speciale (One-off) View the Ferrari 458 Italia Specs More than just great looks and a perfect engine, the 458 is also great on the track. Several racing variants have competed in GTE and GT3 classes with great success. Built on a light and strong aluminum space frame, all you need are sticky tires and a helmet. Carbon ceramic brakes, magnetic suspension, and an electronic differential are just a few of the options that will keep you ahead of your competitors. The most covetedĀ examples are the 458 Speciale and 458 Challenge cars, but they are rarely seen in public. Unloading a 458 Challenge Car at duPont REGISTRYNow that early production examples have been around for a few years, the aftermarket industry has opened the floodgates on performance. Companies like Hennessey Performance and Underground Racing have unlocked the engine computer for more ignition timing, and exhaust experts like Tubi and Novitec offer significant horsepower gains. One of the final production 458 Speciale ApertasA quick glance at the listings on our main site offers the main reason why the 458 is such a solid choice. Several examples of the 458 have odometer readings higher than what's in your garage.Ā You need not fear daily driving this masterpiece, because all 458 models from 2012 to present are covered under a 7-year warranty. This is a testament to the solid engineering that underpins the car, as the only cost you will incur will be fuel.View All Ferrari 458 For Sale View All Ferrari 458 Italia News, Articles, Video

Why You Should Buy A Lamborghini Huracan

If you have never considered owning a Lamborghini, the Huracan deserves a few minutes of your time. Of all the cars we encounter, it tops the list for polarizing an audience. As an example, having a Huracan at an event either evokes notions of love, or contempt. The latter is fuel by perceptions of stereotypical owners which have been perpetuated by pop culture. But Huracan is far removed from any of its predecessors. View Lamborghini Huracan Price, Specs, PhotosOwning an Italian exotic is a great achievement in life, but many see it as not worth the headaches. Driving an Aventador in traffic can be a white knuckle experience thanks to limited visibility and zero tolerance for potholes. Behind the wheel of a Huracan on the street is a stress relief. First off you will notice the seating position is not as compromising as the Gallardo or Aventador. It becomes quickly evident that countless hours were spent making sure Huracan is easy to live with. Because theĀ seats aren't nearly as low as other exotics, claustrophobia becomes a fear of the past.We're not sure why it took so long for Italians to embrace magnetic suspension, but it will make or break your driving experience. My 2003 Corvette was the first sports car equipped with the system, and it had the ability to transform Clark Kent into Superman in a tenth of a second. Conventional shocks on sports cars are set incredibly stiff to keep the car planted on the track. But they are a brutal ride on the street. Driving the Huracan in "Strada" or street mode is actually comfortable because the computer is adjusting the ride several hundred times a second. This one option alone is why Huracan is superior to any other exotic running conventional suspension.Another innovation that has been long overdue is the dual clutch transmission. Aventador can shift as fast as you need it to, but engine power to the wheels is interrupted as the single clutch box works its magic. Another detriment is the cost of clutch replacement. Any Italian owner can attest to a hefty repair bill for removing the driveline. Dual clutch boxes have separate clutches for even and odd numbered gears, so the load is shared between them. This translates to instant shifts, less heat, and much less in maintenance costs.As if these reasons weren't enough, Huracan is offered in both all wheel drive and rear drive models. With the latest in active rear differentials, the added weight and decreased fuel economy of AWD make it unnecessary for weekend cruising. If you need a modern exotic with no compromises, check out the great deals on 2016 models from our dealers.View All Huracans For Sale
