Aston Martin DBS
Truly great luxury sports cars are few and far between. In a world where innovation is all too often hampered by compromise, pure performance is a rarity available only to the genuinely discerning. Designed as the ultimate driving experience, the Aston Martin DBS bridges the gap between road and track – DB9 and DBR9. Equally at home on a twisting mountain circuit as on the open road, the DBS is a true thoroughbred.

How to Drive the $3.8 Million Rolls Royce
It's the most expensive bulletproof limousine
Rolls-Royce is mostly famous for the elegant and expensive limousines, with an unique aspect and a prestige other car makers can't offer.

Biggest Monster Truck
Bigfoot 5 is 4.7 m (15 ft 5 in) tall with 3 m (10 ft) high tires, and weighs 17,236 kg (38,000 lb). The truck is one of three big trucks out of a fleet of 17 created by Bob Chandler of St. Louis, USA.
Bigfoot 5 was built in 1986 to run on a set of 3-m (10-ft) tall Firestone Tundra tires on aluminum wheels, weighing around (1,088 kg) 2,400 lb. Although Bigfoot 5 is too big to race Bob's other trucks have competed very successfully in the popular sport of monster truck racing, and by 1999 team Bigfoot had won its sixth racing series championship in seven years.

The World’s Smallest Car
It might not be exactly up-to standards design-wise, but the Peel P50 is the perfect car on a crowded street.
Only 50 cars were produced and sold between 1963 and 1964, but only 20 are still around today. The original price was 200 pounds, but today you can’t buy one of these micro-cars with less than £35,000 to £50,000.
The three-wheeled car has only one door on the left side, one windscreen wiper and one headlight. At 134 cm in length and 99 cm in width, the Peel P50 mini-car was designed to accomodate one adult and a shopping bag.
You might not be able to ride in a micro-machine like the P50, but you will be able to observe one up close, at the Ripley’s Believe It or Not Museum, in London.

WHITE GOLD CAR
Pics of the so-called 'White Gold' SLR from Abu Dhabi, parked in front of Mall of Emirates in Dubai.
Its interesting to read all the comments on the blogosphere on this car, and how quickly people get jealous and racist about the fact that this car is in Dubai or Middle-East. I wonder if similar comments would come if it was in St Tropez or Beverly Hills or even NYC.

Porsche Carrera GT
The new Porsche Carrera GT comes with a slim trunk that comes handy in holding the stuff for a weekend getaway. Using lightweight materials such as magnesium for the car’s wheels and the frames make the Carrera GT more swift and dynamic thereby helping it deliver a fabulous performance. This Car is powered by a 5.7 liters V10 engine that produces 612 DIN (605 SAE) horsepower (450 kW), while the original concept car presented a nominal 5.5-liter 558 hp version (416 kW). New Porsche Carrera GT cars, says that will accelerate from 0 to 100 kph (62.1 mph) in 3.9 seconds and has a top speed of 330 km / h (205 mph), but evidence indicated that the road in fact, the car can accelerate from 0-60 mph in 3.5 seconds and 0-100 mph in 6.8 seconds, while 0-125 mph in 9.9.
Ferrari Enzo
The race track has always been the testing ground for the advanced technological research that later went into Ferrari's road cars. The very first Ferrari, built in 1947, was a 12-cylinder racing car. From that first 12-cylinder, 126 more were born, destined for both track and road. The Enzo Ferrari is not only the marque's latest V12, it is also a pinnacle of excellence drawing on the experience of victories in the last four years of the Formula 1 World Championship, thus endowed with the very latest automotive technology.
Company founder Enzo Ferrari always felt that design of the road cars should stem from the racers. Therefore, it was entirely logical that the company's latest creation should bear his name. The Enzo, built in a limited run of 399, is an outstanding expression of the concept of extreme sportiness, developed for road use, yet epitomizing the most advanced concepts of Formula 1 racing technology
Ferrari set out to develop the Enzo as an integrated system designed for extreme performance, in which even the limits of the performance achievable by the driver were enhanced, thanks to a man-machine interface typical of Formula 1.
Never before has style been derived so directly from function as in this model. Pininfarina wanted to create an uncompromising car that would break away from the approach used for the GTO, F40 and F50 that preceded it, to develop a new formal language that looked to the future. The engineers tried to create visual links with the world of Formula 1, to which the Enzo owes its technology, while highlighting its compactness and lightness. The result is a complex, sculpted form.
The use of advanced composite materials for the bodywork, with parts made of sandwich panels of carbon fibre and Nomex, allowed the designer to structure the bodyshell while keeping the weight to a minimum, and creating "extreme" stylistic forms.
The front, with its two air intakes for the radiators and a raised central section, is an interpretation of the Formula 1 front section with a small pointed, raised nose and air-intakes under the spoilers in a gull-wing effect. The sides, also benefit from the use of composites, shaped to optimise air-flow with respect to internal fluid dynamics. The large spoiler has been eliminated from the car's rear section which now boasts small aerodynamic appendages and very efficient ground effects.

Maserati MC-12
Now owned by it's once most fierceful rival Ferrari, Maserati made MC12, a two door coupe sports car which is designed first and foremost to annihilate its competition on the racing track in FIA GT Championship. While MC12's design is slightly related to the famous Ferrari Enzo, it is a trully respectable competitor not only to Lamborghini or Porsche supercars, but to Ferrari's own power beasts.MC12 has a V12 engine that was downtuned from the supercar Ferrari Enzo 660 PS to 630 PS (at 7000 rpm). However it remains a DOHC with 65 degree with four valves per cylinder.MC12´ gearbox is also identical to the one used in Ferrari Enzo sports car, it´s Ferrari´s six-speed manual gear shifting box with paddles behind the steering wheel for quick and easy access.Only 25 models of fast car MC12 were built in 2004 and another 25 in year 2005. Only the luckiest sports car and supercar collecting enthusiasts were able to obtain themselves one of these exotic car beauties.
