Guy Builds Epic $17 Million Dollar Bunker Which Can Withstand 20-Kiloton Explosion
#1 $17 Million Dollar Bunker
This bunker occupies 4200 square feet in the beautiful Montezuma County, located in Colorado. From the outside it looks like any other house, albeit the massive tower behind it.
#2 Inside
The interior is cozy and normal looking as well.
#3 Metal Vents
Normal ends when you notice that the ceiling has metal vents that work to prevent contamination if a nuclear attack were to occur.
#4 Steel Walls
And, even Superman might have trouble breaking into this house, since it's walls are made of steel.
#5 Power Systems
The house has four separate power systems, in the event of an attack that leaves us powerless in every way.
#6 Water
In a nuclear attack, or any other apocalypse on earth, the water would become contaminated. The house is prepared for that with a seven stage water filtration system.
#7 Secluded
There's lots of land surrounding this epic house, and if you don't have $17 million dollars to buy it, you can rent it for $19,500 a month.
A Closer Look at 2013 Lamborghini Gallardo Super Trofeo
A few days ago the first pictures of the new Lamborghini Gallardo LP570 Super Trofeo, based on the 2013 facelift model, hit the web. Now there is a video of the car available showing in greater details and from every angle. It matters, because minus the racing wings and diffuser, the Trofeo looks identical to the normal Gallardo. So we get to see if the car actually looks better in video than what it does in pictures.

American Muscle: Ford Torino GT
Because of its relation to the Fairline model line, it could be said that the story of the Torino GT actually dates back to 1964. Drag racing was becoming increasingly popular at the time, and Ford wanted a factory offering which could hold its own on the strip.
The car they built was based on the two-door Fairlane and was known as the Fairlane Thunderbolt. This was built to comply with NHRA Super Stock regulations, and was one of the fastest and most successful factory drag cars at the time. The engine was Ford's 427cu-in V8, tuned to produce 657hp. The car was stripped down and lightweight fiberglass body components replaced heavier steel originals.
BAC Mono single-seater race car
The body of the vehicle is made out of carbon fiber, for reduced weight and great resistance, while the manufacturers have hidden a 2.3l Cosworth engine that develops up to 280 HP under the bonnet. All that power is controlled and distributed by a 6-speed sequential gear-box and transmission along with a limited-slip differential.
Even if the power doesn’t seem to put it in the supercar class, it’s to remember that the BAC Mono Seat Single Racer weighs only 1,190 lbs and has a power to weight ratio of 520HP/ton, which is great, superior to even a Bugatti Veyron or any Ferraris and Lamborghinis out there.That means only 1 thing – speed! The 170 mph-top-speed beast-car accelerates from naught to 60 mph in 2.8 seconds and from naught to 100mph in 6.7. This is a great means of entertainment, but keep in mind that all that power needs attention, during driving sessions, or it may turn against you. It costs $130,000, a bargain if your pockets are large enough.
