For the internet coming out of the FF Ferrari showed of his skills with a video of the car is driven in a way that no one in their right mind would ever try (check it out after the jump). We visit the FF in the metal itself, if it makes her show stand debut at the Geneva Motor Show next Tuesday to see.
Ferrari was also shared by some important figures on the FF with the crowd and Internet viewers. The first number is 660, the PS developed by the direct injection V12. 3.7 is the number of seconds that elapse 0-62 miles per hour and four with a double meaning with the FF, is the number of seats and driven wheels. It is not only a Rosso Corsa cooker, either. Ferrari underlines its commitment to reducing fuel consumption by the unveiling of the FF 360 g / km CO2 emissions figure which is used 25 percent less than the previous V12 612 Scaglietti in the automaker.

Video: Mini Cooper S gets some jet-propelled junk in the trunk


Every once in a while, comes a car that really gives us pause. This is one of those moments. On one side is a let-powered Jet cool slightly. On the other hand, this is a Mini Cooper S, which can utlizes its original, turbocharged inline-four and an old 250-C20B Rolls-Royce/Allison helicopter turbine to a combined 650 horsepower does not make the dust of a GT-R the drag strip. It seems a little ... Anti-climax.

However, we must tip our hat to hoon the Florida that ordered up this beastly Mini Cooper S from BMP design from Tyler, Texas. His heart is in the right place, and it is safe for everyone he lined up a surprise addition.

We are particularly excited about the custom roof, designed so that the turbine exhaust their fiery belch without roasting the fool sits behind you in traffic. The throttle for the twin-jets, which need their own separate tank, a handle next to the driver's seat - a feature born directly from racing chopper motors were in.

Regardless of our concerns about this mini jet-propelled bomb based on hoonage deserves some serious credit at this level. Check out the videos after the break, and try not to mind the lame soundtrack.
