I've been working on the '15 300-series line-up, i started with a entry level car at first. I released a prototype of it allready, the FDF, but now we're taking it serious. This car is a basic family/executive premium saloon. So the entry level model would be a economic 1.4 turbo delivering 174 hp. That's good enough for a 1600 kilo car. Very drive-able and more than enough for someone who want high tameness, comfort and luxury. A nice car to get around in.

With the new chassis came the possibility to fit my new range of inline 6's. Why you think? BC inline 6's are mechanically not more complex then a inline 4, they run very smooth, effectively being half a v12 and we like to be different. The challenge was to fit it in a initially FWD design chassis so it had to be mounted transversely. It resulted in a line of engines with 2300 and 2800 cc's displacement fitted with a turbocharger vvt and vvl. All inline 6's are fitted with an AWD drivetrain with a nice side effect. Beside the fact that the car has a better grip the weight of the rear diff causes the car to have a near 50/50 weightdistribution.
The following 6's are availeble:
-2.3E 177 hp
-2.3T 248 hp
-2.8T 282 hp
-2.8 TS 355 hp
-2.8 TS sports editon 390 hp (special intake and exhaust system)
-2.8 TS R-Spec 536hp (race engine)
That last one will be available for the 300 GT Trackday, basically a racing car platform for trackday enthousiasts.
