#10. Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black
I know it is just a performance version of the now discontinued SLS AMG, but it is still quite a car. It gives you the feel of a GT3 racer in a road car. The standard SLS was never the greatest handling car, but the Black fixes that and more. Downsides? A $300,000 price tag. Come on depreciation!
#9. Lamborghini Veneno
Though it is crazy expensive and crazy exclusive, it is still a ridiculous Lamborghini and that's special. It looks awesome and it sounds amazing, though your chances of seeing one are about one in several hundred million.....
#8 Porsche 918 Spyder
This is the successor to the epic Carrera GT, and even though it is hybrid it is still a Porsche in the purest form. It is one of three hybrid supercars to enter the market this year, and though it is my least favorite of the three, it does prove that hybrids can be very, very fast.
#7 McLaren P1
This is my second favorite of the three new hybrid supercars this year. I can't seem to grow accustomed to it's looks, though there is no denying it's awesome speed. However, I think McLaren could have done it without adding batteries.
#6 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
The S-Class has long been the king of luxury cars. Whatever you saw on an S Class was going to be used in every other car 15 years later. It has been the spawning ground for countless innovations, and it continues to be with this new model.
#5 Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class
Mercedes introduced the CLA to America with a reasonable base price to attract young buyers. And that it did, which means every day on the way to school I see at least three. It looks wonderful, has Mercedes quality and driving feel, and costs no more than a Ford Fusion. Wonderful.
#4 Ferrari LaFerrari
This is my favorite of the hybrid supercars. I don't know why, considering its rather silly name, and insect-like front end, but it is still a Ferrari, and it produces upwards of 900 horsepower. That'll do it for me I think.
#3 BMW 4 Series
I know this is just a BMW sedan in the 3rd place, but this car, for, me is hugely important, especially the M4. It looks great, drives great, and best of all, still retains it's BMW comfort and quality. I know it is just an M3 with a new badge (essentially), but what's not to like?
#2 Chevrolet Corvette
Everywhere I look these days the new Corvette is winning "Best New Car of the Year" awards, and Road & Track's Performance Car of the Year Award. This is all well and good, but I'd like to be different and give the 'Vette second place, purely because I still think in the end, the next car is better.
#1 Jaguar F-Type
People complain about the gas mileage and trunk space on the F-Type. Who cares? What person who just bought a $100,000 convertible sports car cares about that? For me, the spiritual successor of the E-Type is in itself enough to be my first place car. But when you learn about the incredible looks, sharp handling, awesome engines and a sound to rock the world, its a no-brainer, really.
