My Ride: Alpine White 2006 530Xi (SLD)
Just fished out an update on the Mistrale:
(courtesy of autoblog.com)
While Gemballa hasn't revealed the specifics of how it gets power up (aside from mentioning a new exhaust), it has announced that output is up to 750 horsepower, thereby trumping the top-spec 9ff by a good hundred equines.
The extra power is kept in check by 420mm discs up front, gripped by six-pot calipers, and 380mm with four-pot pistons in the back, poking out from behind Gemballa's own 22-inch forged alloys, and riding on a custom air suspension lowered by 40mm. And as we already know, the Mistrale comes with a bespoke aero kit with bits of carbon fiber all over and extra cooling for the engine and brakes.

I think its gorgeous, man - you should really see it in person, if you haven't yet. I have a feeling you might change your mind about this one, bro

Maybe, maybe not. Actually only thing I'm not digging is the bubble like rear.
EDIT: a very very very very tiny nanoscopic chance
