2013 Jaguar F-Type

The 2013 Jaguar F-Type convertible sports car was revealed by the company at the 2012 Paris Motor Show. It is the company's first two-seater design since the launch of the E-Type 50 years ago. Those many years ago, the E-Type drew a lot of oohs and ahhs, the F-Type will certainly draw the same kind of attention from a lot of people.

Inspiration

The company states that it used fighter airplanes as its inspiration when designing the F-Type and it uses the term "cockpit" when it refers to the driver and passenger compartment. All the controls are grouped by function for ergonomic efficiency. The aviation influence is also demonstrated in the gearshift lever, which is shaped like a plane's joystick and is used to manage the F-Type's eight-speed transmission. 

Engine

The Jaguar F-Type comes with a choice of three supercharged engines. The basic F-Type is supplied with a 3.0-liter, V6 engine that delivers 340 horsepower and 332 pounds-feet of torque. This engine can drive the car from 0-60 mph in just 5.1 seconds. It has a maximum speed of 161 mph. The middle option is the F-Type S, which also has a 3.0-liter, V6 engine that generates 380 horsepower. This engine can get from 0-60 mph in a very impressive 4.8 seconds. The F-Type S has a top speed 171 mph. The most powerful option is the F-Type V8 S. This car is fitted with a 5.0-liter, V8 engine that produces a massive 495 horsepower coupled with 460 pounds-feet of torque. The car takes only 4.2 seconds to go from 0-60 mph, and its maximum speed is 186 mph.

Interior

2013 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT

The 2013 Mercedes-Benz SLS-AMG GT boasts better race track performance as well as superior driving dynamics.

The SLS-AMG GT is a more hardcore version of Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG model, and will be available as a Roadster and Coupe. Mercedes continues to produce a long line of cars with safety, style, and performance, the GT will be no different.

Engine & Performance

The GT uses a 6.3L V8 front mid-engine that delivers 591 horsepower at 6,800 rpm and 479 lbs-ft of torque at 4750 rpm. This engine is mated to a 7-speed AMG Speedshift DCT sports gearbox with optimized shift times.

 The combination enables the SLS AMG-GT to sprint from 0 to 62 mph in 3.7 seconds, and reach a top speed of 124 mph in just 11.2 seconds. This car comes with a high-performance ceramic-composite brake system.  

Exterior

2012 Lotus Evora GX

The 2012 Lotus Evora GX is another sports car from this storied British manufacturer. At heart it is intended for the race track.

This is a modified version of the already fast Evora, but it is also available in street-legal trim - if you have $335,000 to spare.

The Evora's already striking and distinctive looks have been enhanced for the GX model by the liberal use of carbon fiber - in particular for the doors, which are entirely made from that material.

Engine & Performance

The Evora GX is powered by a four-liter, V6 gasoline engine which pumps out 440 horsepower and 325 lb ft of torque. Although Lotus has not officially published data regarding the car's top speed, most testers expect it to be somewhere in the region of around 180 mph - a substantial improvement on the standard car's 162 mph, despite a slightly higher curb weight.

Unsurprisingly, handling is extremely firm and sharp, with the engine supported by an X-track sequential gearbox. Cornering ability produce benefits from the race-spec aero kit and race-ready Continental tires.

Equipment

Being a race car at heart, the Evora GX does away with several creature comforts most road cars now offer. There is no traction control, for example, and nor are ABS brakes fitted. Inside, the cabin is uncompromisingly utilitarian, with most of the fairly luxurious equipment fitted to the standard model having been stripped out.

2013 Chevrolet Camaro 1LE

Inspired by road racing, the 2013 Chevrolet Camaro 1LE starts with the Camaro SS body and interior, with upgraded performance elements from the ZL1.

Its unique gear and suspension tuning, with tires capable of handling the increased acceleration, the Camaro 1LE is geared for road-racing performance.

This option is offered on the Camaro 1SS, and 2SS coupe models. The first 1LE package was inspired by Camaro's Pro-Am road racing involvement in 1988. While the Camaro 1LE is geared for handling the speed and turns of road-racing, it keeps the interior features of convenience.

Engine

The 6.2-liter LS3 V-8 engine, found in the Camaro SS, delivers 426 horsepower, and 420 lb-ft of torque. The Tremec TR 6060, six-speed, stick transmission is optimized for track racing. It is equipped with an air-to-liquid cooling system and short-throw shifter for track use. Many compare this Camaro to the Ford Mustang Boss 302 in the track-ready sports car category.

Package Features

The 1LE package begins with a larger front stabilizer bar, and solid rear stabilizer bar, for more control. To increase the level of traction, stronger rear-axle shafts were added. The strut tower brace improves response in steering, and the front and rear Goodyear Eagle Supercar G-2 tires increase grip at higher speeds.

The Camaro ZL1- inspired bearings, toe links, and rear shock mounts deliver better on-track performance, and the high-capacity fuel pump provides improved delivery during cornering.
