If you’re looking for an American vehicle redefined by an European tuner, you have to include Geiger Cars. The German modification company has a passion for enhancing U.S. vehicles.  The latest project to be released by the German tuner is based on the 2011 Ford Mustang 5.0.

“In early summer of this year – and therefore just in time for the introduction of the trendy Pony Car on its home market – GeigerCars.de presented the first vehicles of the 2011 Ford Mustang generation in the Munich showroom as well. The Bavarian US car specialists now react by taking their own tuning version of the V8 coupe to the start. It was refined both regarding looks and performance,” stated the press release. Read more!

GeigerCars.de GmbH – Corvette Grand Sport

The name “Grand Sport” is entrenched in the racing history of the Chevrolet Corvette. Now, for the 2010 model year, there is a new edition that evokes memories of the racecars of the seventies – and Geigercars.de has already given these rockets an additional performance upgrade.

With the LS3 V8 under the bonnet, and the corresponding 430 hp and 575 Nm in torque, the Grand Sport is certainly not short of legs when it leaves the factory. But why be satisfied with production line performance, when tuning specialist Geigercars.de can give you something more? Thanks to the Munich pros, a supercharger with a fat 2.3 litres capacity sits on top of the eight-cylinder engine, which itself exhibits a volume of 6.2 litres. The result is a growth in the power of the Corvette to an immense 588 hp at 6,490 rpm, and torque of 738 Nm at 4,030 rpm. This ultimate sports car negotiates the sprint to 100 km/h in less than four seconds from contact, and it’s not until reaching 337 km/h that the Geigercars.de rocket is forced to relent to wind resistance.

The Grand Sport impresses both aesthetically and technically, with wider front and rear fenders with additional vents, to accommodate the larger brakes of the sister model Z06 with its 355 mm, six-cylinder discs at the front axle, and 340 mm, four-cylinder discs at the rear. The front diffuser and larger rear spoiler are also borrowed from the engineers of the Corvette Z06. Sway bars, shock absorbers and springs have also been overhauled in addition to the six-speed transmission, while a dry sump oil system and differential cooler are also on board. The battery of the Grand Sport has been relocated to the rear. Optimum road contact is guaranteed by the 18 and 19 inch light alloy rims, with 275/35 and imposing 325/30 tyres.

Geiger Cars is a famous and traditional importer of American muscle cars in Europe. The tuning company presents the Geiger Ford Shelby GT with a power upgrade and a few styling modifications. The Geiger Ford Shelby GT is powered by a 5.4 liter V8 engine with 3.3 l compressor with 1.6 bar supercharging pressure that develops 810 PS / 541 kW at 6,700 rpm and 945 Nm of torque at 4,300 rpm – this is just amazing!

To handle all that muscle car power, the Geiger Ford Shelby GT is equipped with custom cylinder heads, a modified injection system, larger throttle valves, a sport air filter, 100 mm air flow meter and a cold air box. Some other modifications are an aluminum rocker arm, a forged crank drive, a 3 disc carbon clutch, a reinforced transmission with shortened 5th and 6th gears, an increased differential and engine oil cooler. Geiger rates the top speed of the Geiger Ford Shelby GT at … 354 km/h. The price will be announced at later time. Check out the specifications and image gallery after the jump.
