Mercedes-Benz SLS-Class AMG
Coupe |
The 2011 Mercedes SLS AMG Gullwing is an extraordinary sports car that combines distinctive looks with supercar speed and handling. If you can afford to pay 200 grand for a two-seater, the SLS AMG should definitely be on your shopping list.

Jaguar XK
Coupe |
The 2011 Jaguar XKR Coupe is insanely fast, elegant-looking, and starts at less than 100 grand. It also creates a stir wherever you take it.

Chevrolet Corvette
Convertible |
What’s the hottest Corvette convertible ever made in the ’Vette’s storied 58-year history? If we’re talking production models, then it would be the 2011 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport Convertible.

Porsche Boxster
Convertible |
The Boxster Spyder is a blast to drive but the Boxster S is so good that only obsessive driving enthusiasts are likely to be able to discern the difference. My heart says to go with the Spyder with a stick shift, my head says go with the Boxster S with a PDK.

Cadillac CTS-V
Coupe |
The bottom line is that nothing on the road in the same price range can match the CTS-V Coupe’s raw speed and radical looks. If those are your priorities, this car is definitely worth inspecting.

The 2010 Acura ZDX crossover may be pricey but it offers style, practicality, finesse, power, and rakish good looks.

Porsche Panamera
Sedan |
The V-6 Panamera is essentially the same car as the S and it, too, is a joy to drive. You give up some raw speed but not much else. A truly great luxury car at a bargain (for Porsche) price

If elegance, exclusiveness, and a touch of sportiness are your priorities, the Maserati Gran Turismo convertible is an excellent choice.

There’s a reason shoppers are flocking to the new Audi Q5: It’s a quick, sweet-handling, tightly built compact luxury SUV with an attractive, thoughtfully designed interior.

2012
BMW 6 Series
Convertible |
The newly redesigned BMW 650i offers a near-perfect balance of luxury, performance, and safety. It’s blander-looking than the previous-generation 650i, but for many people that will be a plus.

Audi A7
Sedan |
The A7 has more standard features than the A6 (18-in. wheels, a hard-drive), but what you’re mainly paying an extra ten grand for is good looks. I’d still be sorely tempted. The A7 is a knockout.
