The V2 Lab’s Mystery Meet was an awesome street party full of all the best cars that Florida had to offer. Vossen was there with a booth giving away a free set of wheels to one lucky attendee. They also managed to film a sick video of their time at the event.

7 reasons you will fall in love with the Gumpert Apollo…

1. 650 HP Audi V8 Twin Turbo

6. Intimidates the Most Interesting Man in the World
7. Chuck Norris’ Daily Driver

Need I say more? Have a look as Clash Productions captures it on the tracks along with some other exotics…

Format67 productions are simply inspiration. Everything they produce is of utmost paramount quality and it is the attention to detail that makes all their projects stick out from the sea of mediocrity. The epic themed “Mechanical Synfonica” again delivers and I’ve watched it over and over again taking notes along the way. This is a production to aspire too and we certainly can’t wait to see their next release. If you too are an aspiring visual artist, I highly recommend you order their DVD (It’s available as a digital download as well!)

Another shooting brake concept arrives in the form of the Citroen Numero 9. This very French video production highlighting Citroen‘s new design language exudes its sexuality with subtle sultry curves. Oh, and yes the car is pretty sick too, lol. For the lucky jet-setters who frequent the French Riviera, the Numero 9 will be THE saloon to rival the Ferrari’s and Aston Martin’s parked out front the cafe. Just be sure to park next to the electrical outlet because this concept is a full electric. Looks like the future will be electrified.

It’s funny how things just pop up on Facebook from time to time and you have no idea how they got there. A friend of a friend happened to like this kid’s new professional page Mike K Media and to my surprise it had a sick video of a  matte black BMW 328. I dug a little deeper and found this guy has a whole collection of cool videos from cars to bmx biking. Mike K is a filmmaker to watch, and I see him doing big things. For now check out this clean matte black BMW 328.

Ever wonder how car manufacturers capture those high-end rolling shots. Well first they start of with a big $$$ budget. The rigging in the following video blows away the amateur rolling rigs you may have seen. Half of this rig is made of glass for heaven sake… A very inspirational video with a lot of hidden gems.

It seems that car companies are willing to do anything to advertise cars these days, but I haven’t seen anything quite this shameless as the Scion IQ’s new Babes ‘N’ Donuts video. There are other ones too, Dudes ‘N’ Donuts, Bikers ‘N’ Donuts, and Cops ‘N’ Donuts, but lets be honest we really only want to see girls in bikinis get spun around in a tiny little car getting milk spilled on them. While on T.V. the Scion IQ is portrayed as a sleek new city car, online it’s nothing but awesome.

YouTube’s 18 & over restriction in place. Video after the jump

Babes ‘N’ Donuts

Nissan’s entry to FIA’s GT3 is none other than the R-35 GT-R GT3. Nissan Motorsports International (NISMO) and JR Motorsports (JRM) collaborate to build a very menacing looking GT-R. Using the same 3.8 liter V6 Twin Turbo found in the street legal version, the detuned motor outputs 523-hp in order to meet FIA GT3 regulations, 22-hp less than what you can get off the dealer showroom floor.

After painfully writing a $388k check, what do you get? You get a race prepped GT-R with fully adjustable suspension, full roll-cage, a 6-speed semi-automatic paddle shift transmission powering the rear wheels, and an aero package designed to keep Godzilla firmly planted on the track. And if you run into any technical difficulties, a direct line to tech support Nismo is just an engineer away;)

When transforming a street car to a race car you usually don’t start by reducing engine displacement, but that is exactly what Dodge engineers did building the SRT Dodge Viper GTS-R. ALMS (American LeMans Series) rules stipulate no more than 5.5 liter capacity motors; However, Dodge was able to submit and get approval to run their V10 motors in an 8.0 liter configuration by altering bore and stroke. The caveat was to run their V10 0.4 liters short of the street version 8.4 liter motor and installing an intake restrictor plate.

The normally aspirated 8.4 liter V-10 from the street legal SRT Dodge Viper GTS puts out an astounding 640 hp and 600 ft-lb of torque. To compensate for the reduction in hp, engineers attacked the problem with a weight reduction plan along with some aero dynamic alterations. I can’t wait to see this Viper battle it out against Ferrari, Porsche, Corvette and 2011′s Team Champion BMW GT2 in the 2013 season.

For all our Florida readers, there is only one place you should be this weekend and that’s V2Lab’s Mystery Meat. The follow-up to last years Big Meat, Mystery Meat looks to be an even bigger and better show. This open format event has everything from JDM to Euro and everything in between. There will be something there for everyone. Located downtown Orlando, Florida, it’s no more than a few hours drive for anyone in the state. We expect to see you all up there and if you see us say ‘hey’. We love talking with fans.
