2008 Dodge Viper SRT10

The new 2008 Dodge Viper SRT10 boasts more of what performance aficionados crave: kick-in-the-pants, throw-back-in-the-seat power, combined with benchmark braking, world-class ride and handling, a race-inspired interior and bold exterior styling. While every SRT vehicle offers balanced, overall performance, the heart and soul of the new 2008 Dodge Viper SRT10 is its standout powertrain. For 2008, SRT ups the ante with a new, 8.4-liter aluminum V-10 engine that produces an astounding 600 horsepower and 560 lb-ft of torque.

1999 Nissan Skyline GT-R R34

World wide know Skyline, mainly popularized by the movie "2 fast 2 furious", the Skyline is a Japanese legend. Also mainly known for being not allowed in the United States, but hearing from rumors the new model may be allowed sometime soon. I have seen older models of the skyline in the U.S. but none compare to this one. It is a great piece of art work, it's rear wheel drive provides you with intense handling ability, and the twin turbo allows you to slide freely with enough power causing you not to stop like you would in a normal car.

A potent addition to the Continental Series, the GT Speed extends the appeal of the Continental GT coupe to driving enthusiasts who place a high value on outright performance and agile handling. Even more breathtaking. In even less time.

Mercedes-Benz SLR 722 Edition

The new model variant SLR 722 Edition is a homage by Mercedes-Benz to the unforgettable victory won by the British racing legend Stirling Moss and his co-driver Denis Jenkinson in a Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR with the starting number 722 (indicating a start time of 7.22 a.m.) at the Mille Miglia in 1955. With an output of 650 bhp and a corresponding performance, the new super sports car, which goes on sale on July 11, 2006, will not only make the hearts of car enthusiasts beat faster. The supercharged 5.5-liter V8 engine in the 722 Edition, which is hand-built in the AMG engine shop in Affalterbach, generates 650 bhp. The particular strengths of this high-performance engine are immediate response to movements of the accelerator, highly emphatic torque build-up and an unmistakable V8 sound. The performance figures are outstanding even for a high-end sports car: the 722 Edition accelerates from standstill to 62 mph in only 3.6 seconds, and 124 mph is reached in just 10.2 seconds. The top speed (209 mph) is above the 207 mph previously achieved by the SLR.

1991 BMW M3

Probably one of the finest cars ever built, and the BMW that has made the most history. The E30 m3, perfect for cruising and racing. This car is the car that made critiques notice BMW in the late 80's and early 90's. This is one of my favorites, a true collectors car, which I myself plan to get. It is fun to drive and the real definition of a BMW.

2008 Subaru Impreza WRX STI

The new STI was expected to be better this year. But when it cameo ut people were disappointed. The new styling is ugly. It's not a hatchback and not really a true wagon. Although the most important thing was kept, speed and handling. The STI has a turbo charged flat 4 engine and an all wheel drive drive line. The new STI has the spirit to keep up with the Lamborghini Gallardo but it's still $200,000 behind.

2008 Volkswagen GTI W12

The Volkswagen GTI W12, is by far the best car Volkswagen has made. It is the widest GTI made, with the biggest engine. It comes with a V12 engine, but how could it fit into such a small car you might ask. Well it goes at the back of your head, instead of the passenger seats. This car has the looks the speed and it delivers what it promises.

2008 Dodge Charger SRT-8

Another muscle car, that is based on an old model. Although the new Charger looks nothing like it's ancestors. The power sure does. Dodge's SRT-8 hemi engine is used in 5 of their cars. The Challenger, 300c, Jeep Cherokee, and the Charger itself. The Charger is all go, but no handles, just another muscle car. The styling is good, it has a mean look to it, with oversized rims.

The CCX is intended to be suitable for the United States market and thus engineered to comply with US regulations.
