I can't fight the feeling..

Maserati GranTurismo S Automatica.

Maserati heeft enkele kleine stilistische aanpassingen gedaan aan de carrosserie die het onderscheid met de GranTurismo S met halfautomaat duidelijk moeten maken. Je moet wel goed kijken, maar de Automatica heeft miniskirts onder de portieren en nieuwe 20 inch lichtmetalen wielen met 'drietand design'.

Ferrari 430 Scuderia.

Serving as the successor to the Challenge Stradale, the 430 Scuderia (scuderia meaning "stable of horses", but also used in the context of motor racing teams, including Ferrari's own) was unveiled by Michael Schumacher at the 2007 Frankfurt Auto Show. Aimed to compete with cars like the Porsche RS-models and the Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera (superleggera meaning super light weight), it is lighter (by 100 kg/220 lb) and more powerful (515 PS (379 kW; 508 hp) at 8500 rpm) than the standard F430. Increased power comes from a revised intake, exhaust, and an ion-sensing knock-detection system that allows for a higher compression ratio.[12] Thus the weight-to-power ratio is reduced from 2.96 kg/hp to 2.5 kg/hp. In addition to the weight saving measures, the Scuderia semi-automatic transmission gains improved "Superfast", known as "Superfast2", software for faster 60 millisecond shift-times. A new traction control system combines the F1-Trac traction and stability control with the E-Diff electronic differential.

Specs:
0–60 miles per hour (97 km/h) in 3.1
0–100 km/h (62 mph) in less than 3.6 seconds
top speed of 198 miles per hour (319 km/h)
