Aston Martin V12 Vanquish

I did a write up on the Aston Martin V12 Vanquish back in 2007 in relation to the James Bond movie "Die Another Day"
But here is the real world Vanquish.

In 1998, a GT concept car, the Project Vantage, debuted at the North American International Auto Show.
The Vanquish was based on that car.
But the Vanquish S is the real barnstormer.
The Vanquish is powered by a a 5.9 liter 48-valve 60° V12 engine, which puts out 514 horsepower and 425 ft·lbs of torque.
That gave the Vanquish a 0 to 60 time of about 4 seconds and a top speed in the 190-204 mph range.
The base price was around $250,000.

And if that's not enough, Top Speed is reporting the new 2010 Vanquish S may be putting out 550 mph.

Porsche Turbo X50

The Porsche Turbo X50 is a $17,000 option available for the Porsche 996.
The Porsche 996 was a water-cooled version of the famous air-cooled Porsche 911 sports car.
The X50 package boosted the 996 turbo up to 450 horsepower and 457 pounds of torque.
That allowed the X50 to cover the quarter mile in 11.86 seconds at 119.91 mph, and gave it a 0–60 mph time of about 3.6 seconds.
There were also a few modeling changes in the 996, like wider rear wings and different front lights and bumpers from the Porsche Carrera.
The 996 also had large vents on the front bumper, that were used on the Carrera 4S and Cayenne Turbo.

PS:
We're getting rid of our 1988 Jaguar XJ6 Vanden Plas.
Dont have the time to do restoration on it.

2005 Maserati MC12

This land rocket is powered by an Enzo Ferrari-derived V12 engine (the MC12 is also designed and built on the Enzo Ferrari chassis).
The six-liter (366 cu in) delivers 624 horsepower and 481 pounds of torque.
This gives the MC12 a 0-62 time of 3.8 seconds and a quarter mile time of 11.8 seconds at 123.9 mph.
The top speed of the Maserati MC12 is 205 mph.
So what's bad about the MC12?
No trunk, no rear window, no spare tire and no radio.
No trunk, no rear window, no spare tire and no radio? It sounds like the 65 Rambler I used to have.
Anyway, only 50 of these bad boys were made.
And they all pre-sold for around $774193 dollars.

Keating SKR supercar launched

Keating SKR supercar has been launched by feldgling British sports car maker. It is using a Chevrolet V8 engine, developing 404bhp and 400lb ft torque at an entry-level state of tune.

Besides that, Keating will also offer a bored-out 500bhp version, along with supercharged 520 and 650bhp options. All models are rear-wheel drive and most will use a steel spaceframe chassis, although Keating says it plans track derivatives with twin-turbos and a lighter, carbonfibre chassis.

Meanwhile, the road-going SKR is a two-seater that drives through a five-speed manual gearbox and measured 4300mm long, 1800mm wide and 1100mm tall. The standard SKR with a steel spaceframe and naturally-aspirated engine weighs 1190kg.

The SKR model is considered to be more of a GT, while the TKR will be a track-ready model with a rumored twin-turbocharged version that could create up to 1,500 hp. Keating is taking orders and expects to start delivery towards the end of the year. Based on what we've seen so far, however, Bugatti needn't be worried.
