The Ferrari Art.Engine


March 4, 2007 At the opposite end of the visibility spectrum to the Masquerade loudspeakers is the Ferrari Art.Engine. It’s one of the most exclusive audio systems on the planet, it looks like something from the 22nd century, and it’s accordingly a whole lot more connected too. Art.Engine is a complete music system that combines twin speaker arrays, wireless signal input and digital electronics in a single tower designed specifically for the home or office. One press of the red “Engine Start” control button beams music wirelessly from your computer, or you can plug in an iPod, MP3 player, satellite radio or CD player and instantly enjoy an extraordinary music experience. More a fine instrument than a piece of electronic equipment, the Art.Engine is a luxurious and timeless sculpture of aluminum and carbon fiber that combines performance, beauty and simplicity, not to mention a presence that cannot be ignored, make it the focal point of any space it inhabits. Limited to only 1000 pieces, the elegant Art.Engine is one of the most exclusive products ever licensed by Ferrari and is an objet d’art that introduces a new standard in room-filling music reproduction and visual presentation.

The Art.Engine is the creation of design and innovation studio David Wiener Ventures and has been endorsed by Ferrari as an official Ferrari-branded product.

“Art.Engine’s development demanded highly advanced audio technology, performance, style and construction methods, and was inspired throughout the development process by Ferrari’s engineering and standards,” says David Wiener, President and CEO of David Wiener Ventures. Giulio Zambeletti, Director of Brand Development Ferrari SpA, emphasizes Ferrari’s commitment to excellence. “Any high end product licensed by Ferrari must have an uncompromising approach to quality, breakthrough technology, and ultimate performance. The Art.Engine encompasses them all.” Powerful, yet streamlined at 47 inches tall, 16 inches wide and only 6 inches deep, the Art.Engine creates a room-filling sound field of high-definition stereo entertainment. Needless to say, performance is outstanding. “Vibrant,” “clear” and “three-dimensional” are some of the words listeners use to describe the Art.Engine.

Art.Engine’s every detail exhibits the passion and elegance influenced by Ferrari — from the racing-style NACA cooling ducts, sumptuous carbon fiber baffles, and Ferrari-inspired paint finish to the extraordinary sonic performance. Today’s tech lifestyle has created a new mode of music listening and demands a totally new approach to audio. DWV, with input from Ferrari, has accepted this challenge and the result is Art.Engine. Art.Engine’s sophisticated technology brings considerable advantages in performance, yet its extreme simplicity provides immediate ease of use.

The most expensive TV in the world



October 28, 2006 On display for the first time at the recent IFA show in Germany and also in New York earlier this month at an exhibition promoting Italian craftsmanship was the Yalos Diamond, a EUR 100,000 (US$130,000 in round figures) television set by Neapolitan (from Naples) Keymat Industrie s.p.a. The 40 inch LCD TV has provision for 1080i and 720p high definition picture formats and is as technologically sound as is humanly possible with a picture contrast ratio of 1200:1. The really expensive bit is the workmanship, the design and the fact it’s plated in white gold and studded with 160 diamonds (4 gm) of diamonds.

Lab-grown diamonds now an alternative



December 14, 2006 Diamonds may well be the world’s most beautiful gem, though we suspect there are many factors contributing to why they remain a “girl’s best friend.” The association with love may soon be tested as technological advances have finally enabled laboratory-created diamonds which have a distinct advantage over their naturally occurring identical twins - they are 100% conflict-free and have not paid the wages of a child soldier, been exchanged for armaments, financed a brutal civil war or have been smuggled at least part of the way to landing on that engagement ring. The New York Times writes ,“Across vast stretches of Africa, diamonds fuel war. Diamonds are so lucrative for predatory governments and marauding rebels that war has become a useful cover for hugely profitable smuggling enterprises. But for millions of Africans who happen to get in the way, diamonds are agents of terror.” In addition to their humane aspects, lab-diamonds also have virtually no environmental impact and they are physically, chemically and optically identical to mined diamonds yet a fraction of the cost. Of course, there are those not even convinced in the worth of diamonds in the first place. For example, “the diamond engagement ring is a 63-year-old invention of N.W.Ayer advertising agency. The De Beers diamond cartel contracted N.W.Ayer to create a demand for what are, essentially, useless hunks of rock.”

In addition to their humane aspects, lab-diamonds also have virtually no impact on the environment, whereas diamond mines typically remove 275 tons of ore to produce a one-carat gem quality polished diamond. This material is removed through an open cast strip-mining method, which destroys ecosystems and the environment in the process. We suspect that a growing social awareness and the availability of manmade changing the way people think about diamonds.

Bill Pearlman, president of laboratory-diamond manufacturer Adia Diamonds, says "the fact that lab-grown diamonds don't come from a mine is of growing importance to a more environmentally and socially aware segment of the luxury jewellery market."

The focus on conflict-free diamonds will become even sharper with the release of the film "Blood Diamond," starring Leonardo Di Caprio. Set in Sierra Leone, it portrays the use of diamonds by rebel groups to fuel conflict and civil wars. Another documentary film about conflict diamonds is slated for release in 2007, based on hip hop artist Kanye West's recording, "Diamonds from Sierra Leone," which won a 2006 Grammy Award.

Human-rights campaigners welcome Hollywood's focus on these issues and say it will help shed more light on the politics and practices of the diamond mining industry.

Adia Diamonds is the first and only company to bring laboratory-created, non-treated, fancy blue and colorless white diamonds to the luxury jewellery market. Hand-cut in Antwerp, Belgium, to the highest quality standards, all diamonds are then issued certification by EGL USA. The GIA announced they will begin grading laboratory-grown diamonds in 2007.

Diamond ring sold online for $412K


July 12, 2007 When the internet business was in its infancy a bit over a decade ago most reasonable folk thought it impossible that someone would ever buy something online without having seen the item in the flesh first. That was pre-ebay, pre-amazon and pre-paypal, and now people buy diamond rings for presumably very intimate purposes – in this case a $412K, 10.50 carat square emerald cut diamond ring - despite never viewing them in person. How wrong we all were.

The sale announced by online diamond and jewelry retailer JamesAllen.com is the largest sale in the company's nine-year history. The ring featured a 10.50 carat square emerald cut diamond flanked on each side by a single emerald-cut diamond and mounted in a handmade platinum ring.

The growing acceptance of online purchases on this scale is in part enhanced by the ability of the technology to duplicate viewing an item in the flesh. In this case the company offer prospective buyers to view diamonds at a magnification of up to forty times the actual size and also provide 3D demonstrations showing what the ring will look like on the hand.

JamesAllen.com report a more than 55% growth in overall sales volume in the year to date, a trend mirrored by other online jewelry retailers like Amazon.com, BlueNile and eBay, which have all reportedly experienced a surge in sales since 2005 with overall dollar figures running into the billions.

The Porsche USB 2.0/FireWire buspowered portable hard drive

July 3, 2007 The LaCie Porsche mobile hard drive is a Road Warrior’s delight – it’s gorgeous, small, built to withstand hard knocks when travelling, holds 250GB and doesn’t need a power adaptor. There is also no software to configure on Windows 2000, Windows XP and Mac OS X because it’s driver-free and it’s preformatted for immediate use on PC or Mac. With plug and play convenience, one-click back-up software and a sexy Porsche-designed case and nameplate, one of these babies will set you back US$339 (USB 2.0) or US $359 (FireWire).

The New Porsche 911 GT2


Highlights of the New Porsche 911 GT2

The 911 GT2 is the fastest and most powerful production road Porsche 911 the company has ever released. Its 3.6-litre horizontally-opposed six-cylinder power unit with biturbo technology develops maximum output of 530 bhp (390 kW) at a speed of 6,500 rpm. Maximum torque of 680 Newton-metres or 501 lb-ft, in turn, is maintained consistently over a speed range from 2,200 – 4,500 rpm. Acceleration to 100 kmh comes in just 3.7 seconds and the new top sports model within the 911 Series reaches a very jolly top speed of 329 kmh or 204 mph.

Efficiency Focus

While it's not likely to be high on the priority list for the intended buyer, a number of factors combine to give the GT2 an impressive gas mileage figure for what's really a road-going supercar. Low weight of 1,440 kg or 3,175 lb, rear-wheel drive and a superior drag coefficient of Cd = 0.32 contribute not only to a very sporty ride, but significant gains in efficiency as well. As a result, the 911 GT2 consumes just 12.5 liters /100 km of premium plus fuel in the composite EU test (equal to 22.6 mpg imp), thus offering a standard of fuel economy exceptionally good for a car of this class.

The GT2’s innovative expansion intake manifold contributes further to the car’s efficiency and power gains; using the oscillating air during the cooler expansion phase is a clear step forward in turbocharged engine technology. So benefiting from a brand-new, innovative expansion-type intake system with its own special geometry and an exhaust gas turbocharger with variable turbine geometry operating at a maximum pressure of 1.4 bar, new 911 GT2 offers an extra 50 bhp over the already very powerful 911 Turbo.

Chassis, suspension and ceramic brakes

Compared with the 911 Carrera, the new 911 GT2 has been lowered by approx 25 mm or 1.00" – the active electronic suspension adjustment has been tuned to suit it, with a harder and sportier “normal” mode than previous models, and a particularly unforgiving rock-hard “sports” mode suited mainly to racetrack use.


The GT2 is well-looked after in the slow-down department by the all-singing, all-dancing servo-assisted PCCB Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake system, which features 15" discs at the front and 14” rear discs fitted as standard. The ceramic composite discs are developed to racetrack standards, meaning they’ll grab strongly and smoothly time and again under heavy heat loads with very little brake fade. They’re also around 20 kilos lighter than comparable cast-iron brakes, reducing unsprung weight and contributing further to the suspension’s effectiveness.

Three-stage PSM and Launch Assistant

The GT2 is the first Porsche to get the new PSM Porsche Stability Management system, which keeps the car in line under acceleration, braking and cornering forces. Sideways slide control and acceleration traction control can both be turned off if you’re getting up to mischief, but the ABS braking system is permanently active.

The stability management system is rounded out by a launch assist function that adjusts the ignition angle and incorporates fine engine braking forces to keep both rear drive wheels from spinning up and losing acceleration. It’s activated when you press the clutch and throttle pedals right to the floor when the car’s at a standstill and in gear, boosting revs to maximum torque for takeoff. Dump the clutch and sink back into your bucket seat as the GT2 leaps out of the blocks, finely managing traction for the perfect drag takeoff every time. Again, this is turned off at the touch of a button.

Titanium exhaust system

The new 911 GT2 is the first Porsche homologated for road use to be fitted as standard with an exhaust system featuring a titanium rear-end silencer and titanium tailpipes. coming in at around 50% lighter than the equivalent stainless steel system.

Impact safety systems

In a clear nod to the GT2’s racetrack-ready design brief, the frame features a roll-cage, which isn’t so much a late inclusion as a basic foundation around which the interior has been designed. Deformation zones absorb impacts while protecting the passenger cabin, fuel tank and fuel lines.

Like the 911 Turbo, the GT2 features six airbags: two-stage full-size frontal airbags for the driver and passenger, thorax airbags integrated in the seats at the side to protect the upper body in a side-on collision, and, finally, head airbags housed in the upper section of the door lining.

Porsche have also thrown in bucket seats and a very spiffy interior. The fastest production 911 of all time will be available as of February 2008 in the USA at a retail price of US$191,700.

Fancy owning Saddam Husain's gold Rolex?


If you’ve ever had he urge to own a mass murderer’s gold and diamond Rolex, well now’s your chance. Haitham Wihaib, an ex employee of Saddam is putting his ex-boss’ bling up for sale to the highest bidder. You can also get your hands on Saddam’s Dior Sunglasses and Cartier Pen which Saddam used it sign death warrants. You’ll also find his pimp walking sticks as well as cameras.

Mr Wihaib is looking to raise approximately £350,000 ($700,000 USD) which he’s pledging to build schools in Iraq with. If you believe that…

Check out Mr Wihaib’s website with all the stuff on, it’s fascinating!

The pimped up Mac Book Pro by Computer Choppers


Computer Choppers is an American company and one you’ll hear geeks whispering about in the server room! The compny has recently taken a MacBook Pro and pimped the hell out of it.

I’m talking a diamond apple logo and a 24-carat gold plated shell. The company are clear to point out that tis is a one off and they are not going nto mass production. My feeling is that they are getting all the geeks to start bidding on this ludicrous machine. There is no mention of price on the company website… but expect some nerd to cough up a few hundred thousand.

I mean, imagine pulling this out in a business meeting – they’d think you were raving mad!

The Mercedes - Benz Luxury key ring

A key ring is not something you’d spend over £20 on… let lone £8,000! But if you really do have that much money to waste, and a flash car to go with it then why don’t you look at the ultimate key ring made from Platinum.





There is also a gold version available at around £3,500 or the silver version around £200!

A little extortionate if you ask me, but I am sure there are a few ‘mugs’ around that would quite happily pass over £8,000 for a keyring… just make sure you don’t lose it in the fruit bowl at a swinger party!

Tonino Lamborghini Golf Cart

If you can’t afford the uber cool Roadster Mini Hummer to whizz you round the golf course then you could go for the Tonino Lamborghini.





As you can see it looks nothing like a real Lambo but it does have some very endearing features that include:
• Independent front suspension.
• Four wheel hydraulic braking system.
• 50 miles to a single battery charge.
• Even the Vatican police use them - so they must be good!
Priced at £6,125 (approx $11,500) the Tonino Lamborghini is regarded by many as the undisputed king of golf carts.

LG PRADA Phone (LG KE850)


It looks like the Apple iPhone but in fact it’s Prada’s latest fashion item. It’s touch screen like the apple iPhone and it’s gonna cost you around £400!

Surprisingly the phone isn’t fussy and incredibly minimalist. It’s an LG tri-band GSM phone with GPRS and EDGE, there’s a large 240x400 pixel touch-sensitive display that can playback widescreen video clips, Bluetooth 2.0, microSD expandable memory, and the KE850 has an FM radio and a two megapixel camera. We measure the display as being 3.2 inches diagonally, a little smaller than the iPhone’s 3.5 inches.
Amazingly, all these features fit in a handset weighing just 85 grams (according to LG) which is 50 grams lighter than the iPhone. The KE850 measures 99 x 54 x 12mm which is somewhat more compact than its Apple rival.
Internal memory is a measly 8Mb, so a memory card will be essential. Because its only a tri-band GSM phone, it is unlikely to make it to the US in its present form, although a Korean CDMA version is touted for Q2 2007. LG say that the PRADA phone will be available in selected dealerships in the UK, Germany, Italy and France from late February, and then in Asia from late March 07.
It’s clear that LG have done more with the KE850 than just slap a PRADA label on an existing phone. Although it’s not the first touch-screen only phone, the KE850 is different from just about everything on the market.. except for the iPhone. The big advantage that the PRADA phone has is that it will be available to most of the world very soon.

One off Silver MTM Audi A8

by Hayden Allen

Check this bad boy out, it’s not actually solid silver but it is polished Aluminum, finished in a clear protective lacquer. The car was put together for a Saudi Sheikh buyer by Roland Mayer and his team at mtm (Motoren Technik Mayer) tuning in Germany.



This particular design project is known as the Audi A8 D3 polished. Before applying the final, clear finishing coat the metal surface of the car had to be totally free of any marks or defects because retouching later was not possible.
Of course the plastic bits could not be polished, parts like front and rear bumpers, spoilers, exterior mirrors, side skirts and fuel tank cap. These parts were finished in a special enamel paint to match the polished metal surfaces before they too received a clear finishing coat.
Mtm developed its own “discreet” body kit for the car. Inside, the door sills and floor mats have been stamped with the company’s logo.

The polished A8 is powered by a supercharged 4.2-litre V8 that delivers about 336kW of power and 530Nm of torque. To accommodate the extra performance the speedo can show more than 300 km/h.
The price has not yet been divulged BUT I can only imagine its around £100,000

The million dollar laptop by Luvaglio


March 07 saw the launch of the world’s most exclusive laptop by Luvaglio. Full spec details have not yet ben released but we know it has a 17” widescreen LED lit screen with a specially designed anti-reflective glare coating for clear and brighter image, 128GB of Solid State Disk space and a slot loading Blue-Ray drive. There is an integrated screen cleaning device and a very rare coloured diamond piece of jewellery that doubles up as the power button when placed into the laptop and also acts as security identification.

Rohan Sinclair, CEO of Luvaglio said: “Unlike many of the highly priced products being released, we took our time to develop something out of the ordinary with real attention to detail. “

“I didn’t want us to simply re-house a laptop into a diamond studded casing, or diamond encrust the entire thing simply to make it expensive. We’ve put thought in from the keyboard down to the power charger. There is an integrated screen cleaning device and a very rare coloured diamond piece of jewellery that doubles up as the power button when placed into the laptop and also acts as security identification. We have used diamonds elsewhere but have given them purpose.”

According to Luvaglio, “the brand is committed to re-defining luxury in a few sectors, technology being one of them.

“Many claim to produce luxury goods but we believe that the true element of luxury is having something that says “YOU”, that money can’t buy.

“At present and from our previous luxury work, our initial clients will be chosen from this selection as we have already established trust.

“The range to be released shortly would allow the owner to become the creator and visit our showroom at two or three well known upmarket stores we are in discussion with, whereby our selection of materials, finishes and accessories will be available to view and a choice selected.

“The choice will be based on our selection but of course other colours and finishes can be done on request. We have access to diamonds that are simply rare and near impossible to get hold of, so are able to offer a very embodied choice.

“The presentation boxes are of course supplied and finished in the choice that is selected by the client. Exact figures I am unable to provide at present due to negotiations but will certainly be more obtainable then our master piece.”

The first such masterpiece will sell for more than US$1,000,000.

The 200 years old bottle of Château Yquem - £55,000

The most expensive bottle of wine ever sold was the 1787 vintage Sauternes from Château Yquem that went for a record US$100,000. That’s £10,000 a glass!



The purchaser was a fine wine collector from the US.

But at over 200 years old what will the wine taste like? “Château Yquem is a sweet wine made in Bordeaux from completely shrivelled up, late harvested grapes. It has the concentration that enables it to mature for many years, even centuries. Apart from the taste, the enjoyment of wine as old as this is a remarkably nostalgic experience. In 1787 when peasants in Bordeaux were picking these grapes, George Washington became the first President of the United States, the French Revolution began, George III was King of England and James Watt was developing the steam engine!”

Free Downloads for PSP

By Walter Seth

There are many ways to get free downloads for PSP but the problem is that not all of them deliver what they claim. This is the main reason I am writing this article. I have been scammed a couple times and couldn't get my money back, which is a pretty bad experience. I didn't receive my free downloads for PSP and didn't get my money back either.

If you still don't know what I am talking about then I'll try to break it down a little. There are hundreds of sites which offer free downloads for PSP with lot's of bonuses which you get when you sign up. They all require a membership fee but it is definitely worth joining the right PSP web sites in order to get free downloads for PSP. There are no additional fees and no pay-per-download fees and you get to download everything, and I mean it, music, movies, TV shows, episodes and other things.

But the real problem is that some of them are scams, real scams so if you do not want to get scammed I suggest you do the following. First, find out if the PSP sites which you would like to join has a money back guarantee. This is the most important part, because even if it is not a scam, you can get a refund, in case you weren't satisfied with the service. Though, I guarantee that sites with such guarantees should give you the opportunity to get free downloads for PSP.

Second, if you're not sure whether to join or not, read a review about the web site and see what others are saying. Read some feedback, but do not believe everything you read, because there are many people who just get pissed off and scream 'scam' without even trying anything. I have made a deep research on how to get free downloads for PSP and finally found a legitimate web site that delivers even more than it claims.

So to get free downloads for PSP all you need to do is join a good web site and you're done. Free downloads for PSP are available on many sites but the best one I've tried so far is called PSP Blender.

Get Free Downloads for PSP with PSP Blender, read my honest review at my blog. Walter Seth is a PSP addict and is happy with PSP Blender, since I could get free downloads for my PSP.

2007 Audi Tuning Resources

By Michael Rad

The punch line of Audi is Advancement Through Technology and this has been the guideline for manufacturing all those models that mix style with technology offering a sturdy result and a great car. If you are looking to buy an Audi, you can check out the latest released cars from Audi. These include the Audi A3, the A4, the A5, the A6, the A8, the Q7, the Allroad Quattro, the RS4, the R8, the S4, the S5, the S6, the S8 or the TT. You can opt for older models if you like the old style Audis.

The Audi Q7 is a luxury size SUV, presented to the great public in 2006. All the Q vehicles from Audi constitute a new family of cars, being a model placed between the A6 and the A8. The body style of the Q7 is 5 door SUV, having a front engine, four wheel drive layout. Other cars made by other car manufacturers that compare to the Q7 are the Porsche Cayenne and the Volkswagen Touareg.

Another successful full size luxury models made by this famous subsidiary of Volkswagen is the Audi A8. This car was introduced in 1994 and has been manufactured up till present (the second generation was launched in 2004). The A8 was designed to replace the V8. The A8 is endowed with the all wheel drive. A 4 door sedan or the coupe is also available for the A8 model of Audis.

The RS4 is an older model, being manufactured between 1999 and 2001. However, in 2006, the RS4 was re-launched and is presently a popular compact executive car.

Nothing Like American Muscle

By David Atkin

Nothing like the sound and feel of a big bad rumbling lopping American muscle car to get the blood pumping, if you've never had the experience of driving one, then possibly it's about time you did, how about a Corvette, Mustang, Chevelle or Camaro, some real American muscle, I have had the opportunity to drive every one of these cars, and I love them all, have you ever felt like a god, like nothing could stop you, if not just get behind the wheel of one of these cars and fire up the ignition, the first thing you notice is the lope of the engine.

Then you depress your left foot in to the clutch, and ease the shifter in to first gear, gently ease your right foot in to the throttle pedal, and slowly release the clutch, this beast begins to move forward, you ease in to the pedal a bit more with your right foot, and the car comes to life, pinning you to your seat, as you hit the shift point and press the clutch again, then ease the car in to second gear, and it leaves a black patch on the road as you do, you mash you right foot to the floor, and the car begins to fish tale, you about to learn a lesson about who is really in control.

As you wrestle the wheel to bring the car back under control, you heart begins to pound, and you blood begins to rush as you realize what this car can do, your now at about 45 MPH, as you depress your left foot again, and ease the car in to third gear, and once again this beast comes to life, the engine moans a high pitched whine as the car once again breaks traction, you wonder if there is a gear that the car won't lay rubber in, now your getting comfortable behind the wheel of a true American muscle car, and you realize that you have got to have one of these, it become your obsession, you think about it every waking moment.

Then you realize that you still have one more gear, and you press your left foot in to the clutch again, ease it in to fourth gear, and your hitting about 90 MPH now, as the speed and power build, a big smile begins to from on your face, from ear to ear, this is a true driving experience, and one that your not likely soon to forget, you now know the power of American muscle, you have felt that big block come to life, and you have a good idea of what it can do, all you can say is thank you for allowing me the pleasure of knowing the power of an American muscle car.

I've been in the automotive business for about 20 or 25 years, I have worked in all facets of the industry, from parts to restoration, all different makes and models, I just want to keep people interested in the old cars because it's where my heart is.
