Between the Aston Martin DBS Volante’s voluptuous Sophia Loren lines and the sound of the wicked V-12 engine, it’s almost unfair. Are we not mortal; do we not bleed? Give me the key!

The 2011 Porsche Boxster Spyder looks great, drives great and is undeniably desirable. And oh would I like one — if only I lived in California.

The Lamborghini Aventador is a supercar for sure. But it’s the forward-thinking design that propels me to christen it the best Lambo ever.

The Tesla Model S is an all-electric car with incredible range. That may be the least interesting thing about it. I stepped into it with low expectations. By the time I exited, I was pretty sure I’d just experienced the future of the automobile.

The conspiracy-minded among us believe there’s a good reason Porsche has never released a Cayman with an engine as powerful as the venerable 911 — it just might whip its more expensive uncle.

The SLS makes the transition to a convertible surpassingly well. No surprise, it’s best when your foot pins the accelerator mercilessly to the floor. Which might remind you that, like the coupe, the convertible is rated to travel at up to 197 mph.

While my bank account tells me that there are 273,000 reasons I couldn’t own the Bentley Continental Supersports, the most important one is the fact I’d be on first-name terms with every police officer north of the Mason-Dixon line.

The 458 Italia makes you feel alive, partly because you can easily imagine dying inside it. Those stars in your eyes are actually oncoming stoplights.

Odd thing about the Veyron: It is the least sexy exotic on the market. But you buy it for the direct link from the accelerator to your endorphin receptors. This is not a car. It’s the world’s most expensive rollercoaster ride.

The Spyder Performante exists purely to thrill. It’s one of the most impractical cars in the universe. And that’s a compliment.

Unlike white-knuckle-driving supercars which cost more than a house in Florida, the Bentley Mulsanne induces a vastly different reaction. Breath out, relax. You’re rich, after all.

The Camaro ZL1 is good. Perhaps even too good. I’m not sure most Camaro buyers are even interested in this level of handling performance. Those few who do will find that Chevy has given us the perfect tools to tame the savage beast.
