G-Power X6

The thing you see above started life as a BMW X6. Then some power was added. Much power.

So much power, the X6 seems to have gotten really, really angry. Just look at its face. That's the face of an angry X6. An angry X6 with 888bhp.

G-Power has been sipping the crazy juice again and decided to ‘pay homage' to BMW's outgoing V10 powerplant. They forced it into the X6, strapped on a pair of superchargers, an intercooler, some strong rods, forged pistons and upped capacity to 5.5-litres.

The result is the fastest piece of ugly you have ever seen - this X6 will shoot from 0-62mph in 4.2 secs and on to a top speed of over 205mph.

You'd need that speed to be honest. We don't need to tell you that this X6 has been uglified to the point of comedy, but, well, it's Ugly. That's right, capital ‘U' ugly.

Just five will be made with prices starting from £570,000. Much coughing up of breakfast took place in the TG office on hearing this news.

888bhp? You can't help but wonder if they're chinese. 8 is a symbol of financial success in chinese culture. :)

Half a million quid? That's ridiculous. You could get 2 459 Italias - one for the track and one for the road, and have some money spare. Or maybe buy 10 GTRs. Or a million packets of crisps for Andy.

I'd love to one day drive a seriously over-powered car. I used to have an RX-7 (the old FC model) which was tuned beyond what the chassis and suspension could take, but still only had 450bhp (which for a 1.3L rotary isn't bad!). And my RX-8's 9,000rpm redline is addictive and is only matched on the roads by 350Zs or better. But i've always wanted the rush of driving something truly terrifyingly powerful. Although I suspect it'll be like the first time I drove a ferrari at Donington - daunting, but nowhere near as scary as I thought it'd be.
