The Enzo Ferrari is a 12-cylinder Ferrari supercar named after the company's founder, Enzo Ferrari. It was built in 2003 using Formula One technology, such as a carbon-fibre body, F1-style sequential shift transmission, and carbon-ceramic brake discs. Also used are technologies not allowed in F1 such as active aerodynamics. After a downforce of 775 kg (1709 lb) is reached at 300 km/h (186 mph) the rear wing is actuated by computer to maintain that downforce.

The Enzo's V12 engine is the first of a new generation for Ferrari. It is based on the architecture of the V8 found in sister-company Maserati's Quattroporte, using the same basic architecture and 104 mm bore spacing. This design will replace the former architectures seen in V12 and V8 engines used in most other contemporary Ferraris. The 2005 F430 is the second Ferrari to get a version of this new powerplant. In 2004, Sports Car International named the Enzo Ferrari number three on their list of Top Sports Cars of the 2000s.

The F430 is the 360 Modena's replacement, but on a combative level it's designed to take on the universally acclaimed Lamborghini Gallardo, grind it into the ground and then turn up its nose as it races off into the distance in a puff of tyre smoke. It is a low-to-the-ground, two-seater rear wheel drive sportscar built for high 'G' cornering, has a mid-mounted V8 engine, is constructed from high-grade aluminium, has the latest generation 6-speed F1-derived gearbox and of course Ferrari's trademark exotic styling that makes grown men swoon.
The F430s exterior design is close to what spy shots hinted at previously, as the front end has Enzo-inspired headlight clusters, albeit with slightly more rounded edges.
Twin oval air dams in the front fascia give it a more organic look than the 360 Modena, while vertical cutouts in front of the front wheels draws the eye to the front end and the smoothly sculpted bonnet.
From the rear, the look is even more reminiscent of the V12-powered flagship Ferrari, with almost-identical circular brake lights and what appears to be a speed-sensitive pop-up rear wing.
The multifaceted rear diffuser located between quad chromium exhaust pipes injects a good dose of street cred.
Furthermore, there are two enlarged mesh-covered air intakes adorning the top of the rear quarter panels and another two sitting lower, just in front of the rear wheels. (NB: click images for high res versions.)
While the sculpted air intakes look great and embolden the F430s look considerably, they serve the purpose of feeding air into the engine bay, which is located behind the driver and slightly forward of the rear axle (mid-mount positioning).
Their extra size accommodates the larger 4.3-litre V8 engine (up from 3.6-litres), and the rear windscreen also has air vents to keep the engine bay well ventilated, and overall the new look is very easy on the eyes, and propels Ferrari's volume-selling model stylishly into the 21st century.

Jaguar is dumping retro design for the new S-type in exchange for a contemporary feel inside and out. The four-door sedan will be a reskin of the current car and offer a roomier interior and more cargo space. The styling may be different, but the targets--the BMW 5-series, the Audi A6, and the Mercedes-Benz E-class--will remain the same. The S-type arrives in 2007.

A limousine (or limo) is an unusually long luxury car, traditionally black or white in color (other colors, however, have also been used for limousines, like pink, magenta, or blue). Limousines are most commonly driven by chauffeurs and are often associated with the wealthy.

While some limousines are owned by individuals, many are owned by governments to transport senior politicians, by large companies to transport executives, or by broadcasters to transport guests[citation needed]. Most limousines, however, operate as livery vehicles, providing upmarket competition to taxicabs.

The McLaren F1 was the fastest street legal production car in the world of its time.

It was engineered and produced by McLaren Automotive, a subsidiary of the British McLaren Group that, among others, owns the McLaren Mercedes Formula One team.

The car features a 6.1-litre 60° BMW S70 V12 engine and it was conceived as an exercise in creating what its designers hoped would be considered the ultimate road car. Only 100 cars were manufactured, 64 of those were street versions, 5 were LMs, 3 were GTs and the rest were GTR racing models. Production began in 1993 and ended in 1998.

Yamaha's YZF-R6 is a 600 cc sport bike, first introduced in 1999, updated in 2001, 2003, 2006 and revised in the years in between. The current version (model year 2007) has a 357 lb (161 kg) manufacturer claimed dry weight and delivers 112 hp.

In 2006, Yamaha advertised the R6 as capable to running at up to 17,500+ rpm. This is 2000 rpm higher than the previous R6 model and it is the highest redline of a widely distributed production four-stroke engine – the Honda CBR250RR had a reputed redline of 19,000. Such a high speed is near to levels known only in Formula One engines, where valve springs stress problems lead to the adoption of pneumatic return at more than 19,000 rpm.

The Yamaha YZF-R1 motorcycle, introduced in 1998, was the first significant motorcycle in the true litre class (1,000 cc) "handling arms race" between the Japanese Big Four motorcycle manufacturers (Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki and Yamaha). When introduced, it took the class closer to a true racing motorcycle, and increased the handling capabilities.

An all-new YZF-R1 for the 2007 model year was announced on 9 October, 2006. Key features include an all-new inline four-cylinder engine; going back to a more conventional 4-valve per cylinder rather than Yamaha's trade mark 5-valve genesis layout. Other new features are the Yamaha Chip Control Intake (YCC-I) electronic variable-length intake funnel system, Yamaha Chip Control Throttle (YCC-T) fly-by-wire throttle system, slipper-type clutch, all-new aluminum Deltabox frame and swingarm, six-piston radial-mount front brake calipers with 310 mm discs, a wider radiator, and M1 styling on the new large ram-air ports in the front fairing.
