Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren “722 Edition”

The Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren is a supercar automobile co-developed by DaimlerChrysler and McLaren Automotive. Though classified as a Supercar, and compared to cars like the Porsche Carrera GT, Lamborghini Murcielago and Ferrari Enzo Ferrari, the presence of the automatic and its driving characteristics lead some commentators to classify the SLR McLaren as a Super GT whose closer rivals are the Aston Martin Vanquish and Ferrari 599 GTB. In fact, one of the goals of the SLR was to combine both supercar and GT characteristics. This is the fastest automatic transmission car in the world. It is assembled at the McLaren Technology Centre in Woking, England. SLR stands for "super-leicht, Rennsport" (super-light, racing). The new versionis called the "Mercedes-Benz SLR 722 Edition". The "722" refers to the victory by Stirling Moss and his co-driver Denis Jenkinson in a Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR with the starting number 722 (indicating a start time of 7:22 a.m.) at the Mille Miglia in 1955. The "722 Edition" creates 650 bhp, with a top speed of 337 km/h (5 more than the standard SLR). A new suspension is used with 19-inch light-alloy wheels, a stiffer damper configuration and 0.4 inches lower body. The SLR is planned to end production in 2008, according to Mercedes-Benz.

Aston Martin Vanquish S Ultimate Edition

The Aston Martin V12 Vanquish', designed in 1995 by Ian Callum, is a grand tourer manufactured by Aston Martin. It rose to fame after being featured as the official James Bond car in Die Another Day, the twentieth James Bond film. In the film, the Vanquish has the usual Bond film embellishments, including active camouflage which rendered the vehicle virtually invisible, giving it the nickname "the Vanish". It is expected to be discontinued after the 2007 model year. The Aston Martin DBS V12 will temporarily replace it atop Aston's lineup until the Vanquish's true successor model is introduced in 2010. Aston Martin has announced that the last 40 cars built will have a new ‘Ultimate Black’ exterior color, upgraded interior, and personalized sill plaques. More significantly, the Ultimate Edition will be the first Vanquish to be offered with a conventional stick-shift manual gearbox. The auto-shift manual gearbox in the original Vanquish has been widely criticized so this could be a popular option for new buyers. This Aston Martin Vanquish S Ultimate Edition comes with a V12 engine, with 520 bhp, 200 mph top speed and gets from 0 to 62 mph in 4.8 seconds.

Ruf RT 12

RUF built this car on Porsche's new 997 platform. A twin-turbocharged, 3.6 litre flat-six cylinder engine based on the previous 996 series Turbo engine provides 530 and 560 Bhp options while the bored-out 3.8 litre option produces 650 Bhp. This makes the Ruf RT 12 a viable alternative to the upcoming 997 Turbo, which produces 480 Bhp. The RT 12 is available in rear-wheel and all-wheel drive form, as opposed to the 911 Turbo which is only available with Porsche's all-wheel drive system. By offering this choice of drivetrain, RUF caters for purists who feel that rear-wheel drive is essential to remain true to the Porsche 911 marque. The Ruf RT 12 features specially developed RUF bodywork, giving the vehicle a unique appearance while functioning to increase downforce, improving high speed stability. Large cross-drilled brakes are included, although some debate has arisen as to how much of an upgrade the system provides over the factory-optional ceramic brakes (PCCB) that Porsche offers on "S" model 997s. Alois Ruf Jr, the company's owner, is dubious of the lifetime of the PCCB system which seems to explain this choice of brake system.[1] In addition, RUF chose to replace the factory "active" suspension system with a static system of their own design. A RUF system with hydraulic control, developed together with Öhlins, which can raise ride-height in situations such as driveway entries is available as an option. The Ruf RT 12 comes at a 200 mph top speed.
