2022 Mercedes-AMG SL63
The most powerful SL Class ever
Why We Picked It:
The 2022 Mercedes-AMG SL 63 maintains the prestige car characteristics that have made it iconic for the past four decades. This sleek and curvy convertible does away with the retractable hardtop in favor of a cloth canopy. The new SL has two little seats in the back, so it's no longer a two-seater.
This updated SL is better suited to real-world use thanks to its V8 engine that produces 577 horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque. When you rev, this mighty engine sounds like a proper V8, but otherwise, you may cruise in relative silence most of the time.
The engine is paired with a 9-speed multi-clutch automatic transmission and the Mercedes 4MATIC all-wheel drive system. The SL 63's suspension is fantastic. The highlight of this system, which goes by the name AMG Active Ride Control, is its hydraulic, active anti-roll stabilization.
Most of the interior is upholstered in leather and finished with contrasting stitching, which is a nice touch. As with any roadster, the SL63 is more fun with its top-down.
Specifications:
Price: $146,000-$150,000
Engine: 4.0L Twin-Turbocharged V8
Power: 577 hp
Torque: 590 lb-ft

A muscular British grand tourer
Why We Picked It:
Aston Martin is a company that aims to give its clients a unique experience. The brand's creations typically have a distinctive appearance that they can build on, and that's exactly what they've done with the current generation of the Vantage V8 introduced in 2018.
The Aston Martin Vantage V8's dimensions are just perfect. The sporty yet elegant interior layout offers everything needed to maximize the vehicle's capabilities. In this regard, the Vantage is a proper grand tourer, satisfying the needs of racetrack enthusiasts without compromising comfort for daily driving.
This rear-wheel-drive GT boasts exceptional responsiveness thanks to its 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine. It churns out 503 horsepower and 505 lb-ft of torque when paired with an eight-speed ZF automatic transmission.
With the addition of a robust subframe for increased stability, the vehicle is now in optimum performance shape. The resulting responsiveness makes driving the car an exciting experience for both the driver and the vehicle.

2019 Maserati GranTurismo
Proper Italian flare
Why We Picked It:
When new, the Maserati GranTurismo was a high-performance, six-figure grand tourer that represented all that is alluring and tempting about Italian automobiles. Its shape is rounded in all the appropriate areas, and the inside is luxuriously furnished.
A 454-horsepower, 4.7-liter V8 engine powers both the coupe and the convertible. The Maserati's V8 engine, sourced from Ferrari, produces an Italian growl that the other grand tourers can't replicate. All variants have standard rear-wheel drive and a six-speed automatic transmission.
The GranTurismo has a surprisingly comfortable ride that's great for daily use. More body roll around corners than ideal in a sports car is the price for such luxury. However, the GranTurismo has enough power to make driving on a two-lane highway exciting. The GranTurismo's interior is trimmed in high-quality leather, wood, and carbon fiber. The front seats are very comfortable and supportive.
The GranTurismo was a groundbreaking take on a flagship vehicle, reflecting the brand's commitment to cutting-edge engineering, sumptuous amenities, and timelessly elegant design.

The Ferrari Roma is an ultra-sophisticated, high-performance grand tourer from the Prancing Horse marque. It's a modern take on the classic Ferrari GT design. It has a long, flowing hood, a short rear deck, and a low roofline. Two sharp headlights and a sizable grille dominate the front end. The back end features a pair of LED taillights and a quad-exhaust system.
Like the rest of Maranello's offerings, the Roma is an exclusive luxury sports car. Its performance, history, and refinement put it above many of its closest competitors in exclusivity.

The Roma has a 6.2-liter aluminum turbocharged V8 engine under the hood. The vehicle's output is transmitted to the back wheels via an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

The BMW M8 Competition Coupe is renowned for being the best of the pack among their most recent M series cars, many of which are now SUV-focused.
The BMW M8 Competition's raw, muscular power over any other car in its class and higher price tag than comparable models make it easy to call it a true beacon of excellence among its peers. BMW Motorsport designed an opulent cabin brimming with technology and sophistication to match the M8's exceptional performance.
The 4.4-liter V8 TwinPower Turbo engine, which generates an incredible 625 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque, is now standard on the M8 Competition. Early models included an additional engine option, but it was marginally less feature-rich and only produced up to 600 horsepower.

2022 Audi RS e-Tron GT
A stylish and sporty electric saloon
Why We Picked It:
Audi is one of the brands that will deliver exclusively electric vehicles as part of an ambitious plan for electric transportation. The German automaker is making headlines by demonstrating that its high-performance electric cars are as sporty and fast as their gas-powered counterparts.
For instance, in terms of speed, acceleration, handling, and torque, the Audi RS e-tron GT is unrivaled by any other vehicle in its class. Perhaps some purists will lament the loss of exhaust sounds, but even they will get used to it.
The RS e-tron GT's 598 base horsepower, which quickly jumps to 646 in over-boost mode, gives it ferocious acceleration and instantaneous throttle response. This battery-powered car can reach 60 mph from rest in under 3.3 seconds.
Its nimble handling and comfortable cabin match the RS e-tron GT's sportiness. This is because the driver can choose between several distinct "drive modes," each of which modifies the engine's power, the four-wheel steering, the air suspension, and the differential lock on the rear axle.
Specifications:
Price: $100,000-$108,000
Engine: 2 AC Synchronous Electric Motors (Front and Rear Axles)
Battery: 85.0 kWh Liquid-Cooled Lithium-Ion
Power: 646 hp
Torque: 612 lb-ft
Transmission: 2-Speed Automatic
Curb Weight: 5,148 lbs

2021 Jaguar F-Type R
A brawny feline
Why We Picked It:
When introduced in 2014, many people lauded the new Jaguar, the F-Type, as the E-Type's spiritual successor. This was because it was one of the most beautiful sports cars ever made by Jaguar. The F-Type R had a more streamlined design and chassis, but the car retained its endearingly retro feel throughout the driving experience.
As a result of the F-Type R's 5.0-liter supercharged V8 engine's ability to produce 575 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque, the vehicle can compete successfully in the supercar category.
When it came to dimensions and output, Jaguar wanted the Type-R to be able to go up against vehicles such as the Porsche 911 Turbo, the Audi R8 V10, and the Mercedes-AMG GT S. This was the primary motivation behind the development of this vehicle. This vehicle could hold its own against the artillery fired by the Germans.
Putting the F-Type R into Sport mode or pressing the sports exhaust button will make the engine sound like a crazed cat, even though it is equipped with a Quiet Start technology that helps limit engine noise.
Specifications:
Price: $70,000-$75,000
Engine: 5.0L Supercharged V8
Power: 516 hp
Torque: 410 lb-ft
Transmission: 8-Speed Automatic

It will also catalyze Porsche's move toward electrification. The Porsche Taycan is built on the same innovative electric architecture as the Audi e-Tron GT.

With the same 460 kW system, the Turbo S produces 616 horsepower (750 hp with overboost) and 774 lb-ft of torque. Both versions have identical charging times. It takes 10.5 hours to charge a battery using alternating current, 93 minutes using 50 kW, and 22.5 minutes using the maximum charging power when using direct current.
