The Porsche Cayenne GTS will offer customers a "sizeable increase in horsepower" over the standard V8 model and will, for the first time in a Cayenne, be available with a six-speed manual transmission in North America.
Porsche 911 GT2: 530 twin-turbocharged hp, rear-wheel drive and a pair of scorched underpants.
MINI Cooper Challenge: this may have been one of the coolest cars at the show, built for a MINI spec series with years of history in Europe. Maybe some of it will trickle down into a limited-edition street version.
With the return of Alfa Romeo to the US, we hope to see cool cars like this Spider make it across the Atlantic. Build quality and materials seem rather nice, and it would make an excellent alternative to the ubiquitous BMW 3 Series drop-top.
The DBS is Aston Martin's answer to everyone who thought the standard DB9 wasn't hardcore enough. It features revised bodywork, a massaged V12 and weighs around 220 pounds less.
Hamann half-heartedly remedied the Gallardo's horizontally swinging door problem with its gullwing hinge conversion. Still not as cool as Murcielago-style scissors.
Hamann has wasted absolutely no time in working its magic on the newest M3. Suspension work, aerodynamics and a wheel-and-tire upgrade help the car look even more aggressive than the factory version.
AC Schnitzer intends to take the record for world's fastest street BMW with this. Based on an E92 3 Series and running on natural gas, it will, if nothing else, be the fastest mint-green car in the world.
Think your Pagani Zonda is neither lightweight nor exotic enough? Get one with a bare carbon fiber body. The workmanship on this piece is truly amazing and makes it look more like a spacecraft than a sports car.
This Carlsson CK65 borrows heavily from Bugatti with its two-tone exterior and luxurious-yet-sporty interior. The production run will be limited to an extremely low quantity, so if you really want one, act now.
Smart cars are everywhere in Europe. In big cities with traffic congestion, parking problems, pollution and high fuel prices, they just make sense. To do your part, yet still stand out and enjoy a higher level of performance, Brabus offers the Ultimate 112, a hotter version of the Fortwo. No word yet on whether this will make it to the States.
For the Steve McQueen fan who has everything--the way cool Brabus Bullit. Powered by a bi-turbo V12 and with aerodynamics to keep the car planted at ludicrous speeds, this thing will leave bona-fide sports car drivers scratching their heads as they inhale its dust.
