More than jet-skis…Polaris 3-wheeler “Slingshot” (5 Photos)

Powered by a 2.4-liter Ecotec engine with 173 hp and 166 lb ft of torque, the all-new three-wheeler hasn't had it performance numbers revealed by Polaris yet, but considering that its four-pot only has to move just 756 kg (1,666 pounds) of dry weight, we suspect it should be pretty snappy around a track and not only. Even though it comes equipped with car-like seats and three-point seat safety belts, both the driver and the passenger have to wear helmets in every state with helmet laws, while the driver has to possess a motorcycle license.

Take a Nissan 180SX, add a Camaro with a little BMW detail (12 Photos)

The most dramatic part of this slammed wide body 180SX is the front end, which is styled after a fifth-gen Chevy Camaro. Along with the Camaro nose, the 180SX is also running E46 BMW tailights in the rear. With the extravagant widebody, a proper set of wheels is needed to fill the fenders and the mismatched setup includes a pair of the always-cool SSR Agle Minervas up front. And when you poke your head under the hood and see that the Nissan is powered by a worked SR20DET with a V-mount intercooler setup. The power from the SR gets used often when the guys from Funky Racing hit the track. Source
