G-POWER is pushing relentlessly towards becoming a serious contender as a force of nature comparable to the sun. After recording a speed of 367.6km/h (228.4 mph), the 750hp / 559kW G-POWER M5 HURRICANE RS is officially the "fastest sedan in the world, taking the record from the bi-turbo V12 BRABUS Rocket. That car is based on the Mercedes-Benz CLS and does 362.4km/h.
G-POWER modified the M5 HURRICANE RS through enlarged capacity twin superchargers supplied by ASA. Boost level went from 0.7 bar to 0.8 bar. What's scarier is that G-POWER says they can raise this up to 1.0 bar for even more performance. "We can still improve," says CEO and engineer Christian Stöber, "if we see the need for it."

They used to feature this euro competition every year in modified luxury and exotic. I guess thats over. Th sucks. They will be missed. I will admit that although I loved buying the magazine I was losing interest because the cars they do are out of my league right now. I am more interested in the stufff in traction magazine that modified luxury and exotic, but the pictures are nicer and the cars are totally in my range.
