Ferrari 458 Italia
Settle down folks. Worry no more, if you are a huge fan of the Ferrari F430 and is mourning for its death. The glimpse of the new Ferrari 458 Italia has now arrived. It's a mid-engined beast with a new 4.5-litre direct injection V8 putting out – ready for this? – 562bhp. It is unbelievably fast and quick. It can reach speeds of about 202mph and it has 0-60mph time in under 3.4 seconds. It also has a new gearbox which was derived from the Ferrari California.

New Audi A8
Here's the new Audi A8, or at least its headlight.
Audi recently released the teaser sketch of the Audi A8 which is coming into production next year. It's just a sketch but it's pretty damn good-looking.

Jaguar XFR
The 2010 Jaguar XFR has now arrived. TopGear hosts says that it will surely be a huge threat to the BMW M5. This new addition to the sport saloons will definitely shake the saloon world. The new Jag has a 5.0-litre supercharged V8 with 510bhp and a 0-62mph time under five seconds (4.9 to be exact). The XFR is capable of speeds like 198mph but it's limited to 155mph. Sad ,but still, it's sure is quite a lot.

Honda FCX Clarity
Everyday, I remind myself of what kind of fuel cars will be run a few or let's say 50 or a 100 years from now. Will it be light? Alcohol, perhaps, or some fancy stuff from aliens? Who knows?
I was a bit relieved when I saw an episode of TopGear wherein they tested the new Honda FCX Clarity. It was a four-door sedan which produces 134 Break Horsepower. I saw a hero in-the-making. I saw the messiah of the internal-combustion-engine powered cars.

The New Lamborghini Murcielago
The Lamborghini Murciélago is one of the most extraordinary super sports cars of all time. Automobili Lamborghini has now expanded its model range with a new, exceptionally purist and even more extreme top model - the Murciélago LP 670-4 SuperVeloce is even more powerful, lighter and faster than the Murciélago LP 640. With the output of the 6.5 liter V12 increased to 670 hp and a weight reduction of 100 kg (220 lbs), the Murciélago LP 670-4 SuperVeloce boasts a power-to-weight ratio of 2.3 kg (5.1 lbs) per hp. This catapults it from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in a breathtaking 3.2 seconds and powers it on to a top speed of around 342 km/h (212 mph). Distinctive design refinements ensure that each of this 350-unit limited edition series conveys its full potential from the very first glance.
With its outstanding performance, razor-sharp precision and exceptional high-speed stability, the Lamborghini Murciélago LP 670-4 SuperVeloce is the ultimate performance car for advanced sports car drivers. The super sports car has been extensively redesigned with a new front and rear, an innovative engine bonnet and a choice of two aerodynamic set-ups featuring either a small or large rear spoiler.
The Stig
At last, the long awaited revelation of Stig's identity has come. As you see on the picture, Top Gear's Team Racing Driver is the former F1 Champion Michael Schumacher.

Toyota FT-HS Concept Car
Pairing a potent hybrid powertrain with essential sports-car fundamentals, the FT-HS is a mid-priced sports car that integrates ecology and emotion in a concept that addresses the question, "What is a suitable sports car for the 21st century?"
Boasting a powerful V6 3.5L engine, the FT-HS is coupled with Toyota's Hybrid Synergy Drive to produce a target power output of approximately 400 horsepower and a projected zero-to-60 acceleration in the four-second range. At a mid-priced market position, the FT-HS would be a true "attainable exotic" with 21st-century performance.
A sculpted front and rear remove mass around key functional components, while the roof has a distinctive scooped-out section designed to reduce aerodynamic drag and provide head room at the key areas.
The FT-HS's interior features create a dedicated driver's cockpit that includes a cross-car instrument panel structure and delta-wing driver pod. An integrated instrument panel surrounds the driver, creating an enclosed pod effect. Armrests flow seamlessly into the door and surrounding interior. Seating is optimized for a lightweight appearance and function: The seating accommodates four and then converts to a two-seater when the roof retracts.

The Smallest Car in the World!
Imagine a car you can drive to your office. I mean, literally, to your office. Watch this video:

In addition, the new season of Top Gear is now also up. So, things will be more fun. See you!

The Abomination
No car has ever been so accomplished in both technological and performance aspects as the Nissan GT-R. It has set a new standard for sportscar production, not just because it is phenomenally fast, capable and approachable, but also because it’s not actually that expensive. Porsche, Ferrari, Aston? There’s no longer any need. It's become an abomination to the sportscar industry.
The GT-R's powerhouse produces a staggering 470bhp being sent to all four wheels via a semi-automatic dual clutch gearbox. This means 0-60mph in around 3.5 seconds and a top speed not far shy of 200mph, which is stunningly fast. There's no doubt that this abomination shakes the supercar world that's been dominated by Porsches, Ferraris, Astons and Zondas.

The Next Big Thing
Watch out! This new lambo would wipe you and your car off the streets...
This beautiful yet muscular car is new Lamborghini Estoque (Es-to-keh) concept car named after the sword a matador uses to filet a bull.. It was designed for the Paris Auto Show but the executives of Lamborghini didn't announced the specs about this amazingly good-looking car.
Lamborghini (in my opinion) is struggling whether to mass-produce this car or not because of the economic crisis that's been going on in the world market. So, the question is... Will we ever see it on the road or is it just another impossible dream?

Top gear
Guys, I really recommend that you watch Top Gear series because it is really great and funny and its also a show about cars. In my opinion, it is the best car show in the world! It stars Jeremy Clarkson, James May, Richard Hammond and the ever silent Stig.
This show is a perfect combination of cars, humor and challenges. You'll never get enough of Jeremy's insults. Hahaha... I really like this show, so I hope you people would.
Hulme CanAm
This is New Zealand's pride, the Hulme CanAm. This is the soft-top version so we can expect it to be of production sometime next year.
It was previously called the Hulme F1 way back 2005 - so it's been around for quite a time. The company that built it took almost five years developing such a great looking car - but does its looks deceiving or is it really the real thing.
This car has the 600HP engine lifted from a corvette ZO6 and it can go from 0 to 60mph in under three seconds and a top speed of nearly 200mph. Whoah! This car could enter the realm of the supercars. I hope that they will actually make this one.
Hello World!
