Some cars, whether elegantly refined or radically innovative, have left an indelible mark. The Mercedes 300 SL is one of them. Derived from the 1952 Le Mans-winning 300 SL race car, the road version unveiled in 1954 retained its ultra-light tubular chassis, iconic gullwing doors, and independent suspension on all four wheels. It also introduced direct fuel injection, desmodromic valve timing, and dry sump lubrication—an impressive package of cutting-edge technology. With 215 horsepower and a top speed of 260 km/h in its long-axle version, it was the fastest production car of its time. In just three years, 1,400 units were sold—six times Ferrari’s sales over the same period.
For twenty years, Porsche has been paving the way for its Heritage Design program, a 911 collection that highlights the great years of the brand. The Targa 4S Heritage Design Edition opened the ball with a tribute to the years 1950—60, followed by the Sport Classic and its double boss that revived the spirit of the seventies, then the Classic Club Coupe designed with Porsche USA. Today, the saga continues with the 911 Spirit 70, the third chapter in this story and limited to 1,500 copies. Not a timid evocation, but an assumed reinterpretation of the 70s in a contemporary 911, designed to combine heritage and modernity.
Buying or selling a luxury car should always be a source of excitement, never a constraint. However, the reality is often made up of tedious administrative procedures, endless searches, and uncertainties around the condition or history of a vehicle. It is precisely to eliminate these obstacles that Carsup designed its trading service: a fluid, comprehensive and rigorous support, where every detail is taken care of.
But what could have happened to the management of Renault? A few years ago, the diamond brand did not hesitate to do a few crazy things, especially with its Renault Sport branch. We could mention, among others, the R5 Turbo, R8 Gordini, R8 Gordini, Renault Spider, Clio V6, Renault RS 01 and much more! But since the suspension of the sports branch in favor of Alpine, Renault seemed to rather be heading for a 100% electric future by focusing on city cars and SUVs as standard. It seems that the brand likes to surprise us, which reveals a car straight out of video games: the R5 Turbo 3E.
