E
l Nagari fue construido en Australia, ya ves.
Todo lo que tom para crear este verdade-
ro supercar de Aussie fue un pensamien-
to inspirado por dos hermanos llamados
Bolwell, trabajando en un cobertizo en los
suburbios de Melbourne.
Establecida en la dcada de 1960, la compaa que lle-
vaba su nombre comenz a hacer kits de coches, utilizan-
do predominantemente partes de GM como el motor en
lnea de seis cilindros de Holden. Sin embargo, despus
de cuatro modelos, los hermanos - Campbell y Graeme
- decidieron hacer un coche de produccin completo con
un cuerpo de fibra de vidrio, los componentes de Ford y
la direccin de Austin 1800. El resultado fue el Nagari, un
coche deportivo de baja altura con un cuerpo bellamente
diseado que se inspir en los autos deportivos Lotus de
la poca.
Comnmente equipado con un Ford V2 302 Windsor,
Nagaris ms tarde se podra encontrar con un Cleveland
351. Para el rendimiento, nada en la carretera podra coin-
cidir con el Nagari 920kg con el motor ms grande. Con
el 302 conducir a las ruedas traseras y producir 180kW y
300Nm, el Nagari golpeara la carrera 0-100km / h en 6,4
segundos, mientras que el cuarto de milla se complet en
14,3 segundos. La velocidad mxima era igualmente im-
presionante (por el momento) 209km / h.
El 351 mejor en estas cifras, corriendo a mediados de
los 13 segundos de un cuarto de milla, mientras que la
velocidad mxima fue alrededor de la marca de 240 km
/ h. Durante la prueba de manejo del automvil, se pidi
a un periodista motorizado que registrase una velocidad
mxima para los hermanos Campbell, pero en lugar de
regresar con un nmero, regres con una palabra: Ate-
morizante.
A pesar de su funcionamiento principal que giraba, el
Nagari tena sus problemas; El interior era estrecha y ca-
liente (debido a que el motor se coloc tan lejos), el pie era
muy pequeo, mientras tanto la direccin y suspensin
tena su parte justa de problemas.
La produccin dur de 1970 a 74 con ms de 100 cou-
ps construidos; Tambin haba 12 convertibles que salie-
ron de la lnea de produccin. Este nmero vara de fuente
a fuente, ya que los registros se han perdido. En los aos
80, Bolwell haba cerrado la tienda y no fue hasta 2009
que Bolwell revivi el nombre de Nagari. Campbell decidi
que era hora de crear otro automvil deportivo mientras
pasaba tiempo en Canad fabricando turbinas elicas.
El nuevo modelo present una vez ms un cuerpo li-
gero, esta vez hecha de fibra de carbono. Haba un me-
dio-montado, sobrealimentado 3.5 litros V6 prestado de
Toyota, y conectado a una caja de cambios automtica
de seis velocidades. Las cifras de aceleracin fueron im-
presionantes, con un 0-100km / h de tiempo de cuatro
segundos, gracias a 220kW / 355Nm de barril.
Despus de que Ford, Holden y Toyota todos cerca de

he Mercedes-AMG GTS (C190) is a large touring
car developed by Mercedes-AMG. It was presented
on September 9, 2014, and publicly at the Paris
Motor Show. After the SLS AMG, it is the second
sports car developed entirely by Mercedes-AMG.
The car is produced in two versions, the GT (460 Cv) and the GT
S (510 Cv). Both models went on sale in March 2015. There is also
a variant GT3 competition. All variants are manufactured at the
Mercedes-Benz plant in Sindelfingen, Germany.
The interior of the Mercedes-AMG GT was taught on April 16,
2014, trying to create excitement. The car debuted on September
9, 2014, and was officially launched in October 2014 at the Paris
Motor Show with two possible engines: the GT, with 460 HP (350
kW) and 600 Nm of torque; And the GT S with 510 HP (375 kW)
and 650 Nm.2 2
The Mercedes-AMG GT S is the official safety car of Formula 1,
debuting at the Australian Grand Prix of 2015. In March of 2015,
Mercedes-AMG introduced the Mercedes-Amg GT3, the GT ra-
cing version, in The Geneva Motor Show, which will use the M159
6,208 cc V8 atmospheric also used in the SLS AMG GT3. It is
mostly made of carbon fiber reinforced plastic with the intention
of reducing the weight below 1300 kg to comply with FIA race car
homologation. It is expected to go on sale in 2016. Shortly after its
commercialization, a Black Series variant of the Mercedes-AMG
GT is expected. The prices of the Mercedes-AMG GT start at
141,800; And those of the GT S, at 163,400.7
The GT design remained similar to that of its predecessor, the
Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG. It features wide wheel arches and SLS
lower body, but does not feature its Seagull wing doors. The large
bonnet and the slender windshield have also been maintained.
Chief designer of the exterior was Mark Fetherson, whose pre-
vious work includes the Mercedes-Benz Class A W176, CLA class
and SLS AMG. The interior, designed by Jan Kaul, features a large
center console and decorative elements in leather and carbon
polymer. The trunk offers space for a medium suitcase.
The vehicle structure is made of 93% aluminum, with the base
of the front module made of magnesium. M178 V8 in a GT. The
Turbochargers can be seen in the center, underneath a metallic
thermal shield. The GT uses a front-center longitudinal engine
and rear-wheel drive. The chassis and body are made of alu-
minum alloys, while the trunk lid is steel and the magnesium
hood. The suspensions are double fork front and rear. The power
comes from a V8 engine M178, of 4 liters and two turbos. The
turbos of this new V8 are within the V, reducing turbo lag, and
uses dry lubrication. The power is sent to the rear wheels through
a transaxle gearbox of 7-speed AMG Speedshift; The GT S uses a
mechanical limited slip differential. In a test run by Car and Driver,
the AMG GT S accelerated from 0 to 96 km / h in 3.0 seconds
and made the quarter-mile in 11.2 seconds.
