upcoming high hp cars
^Thats a bad machine, but I think it would cost more than the 45k. Here are the specs for that vehicle
Audi's $130,000 R8 unveiled on Sept 27th at the Paris Motor Show
The performance figures are equally impressive: the R8 accelerates from a standstill to 100 km/h in 4.6 seconds and reaches a top speed of 301 km/h.
Here are somemore details on the upcoming new Audi R8 supercar, based on the Le Mans concept above. A quick recap, the car is supposed to come in 2 variants, one with an entry-level high-revving 4.2 V8 making 415hp and 430Nm of torque. The top of the line version features a 5 liter V10 from the Lamborghini Gallardo twin-turbocharged to make 610hp and 745Nm of torque.
The V10 is not the only thing from the Gallardo. The Audi R8 also shares the same all-aluminium chassis as the Gallardo, as well as it’s four-wheel drive system and 6-speed manual gearbox. So what makes the Audi R8 different from it’s raging bull brother? For one, instead of the Gallardo 6-speed manual, you have the option of a newly developed 7-speed DSG sequential gearbox. The Audi R8 is also equipped with Audi’s new Magnetic Ride adaptive damping system.

2009 CTS-V
More images of Cadillac’s next generation CTS sedan have surfaced and this time it’s a prototype of the CTS-V version. Unique to the high-performance car will be the menacing bonnet bulge, race-style alloys and wider tyres. According to the photographer, there may even be a supercharger residing under the hood because there was apparently, a loud supercharger sound coming from the car.
The most likely engine option will be the familiar 4.6L V8 but with a force-fed version for extra power. Just recently we saw images of a Corvette with a similar bulge in the hood that also emitted a similar supercharger whine. Power levels for the new car should be around the 500 to 600hp range, and production will start in late 2008. Follow the jump to see The Car Connection’s report as well as the full image.

(Not Really)!!!Honda is focused on the development of a new model to succeed the NSX. Planned for 2008, Honda NSX should benefit from its experiment in F1 by proposing a V10 engine for the new car.
With the V10 the new NSX will be the most powerful honda ever made.The carmaker is aiming for the top in producing engines.
The new Honda/Acura NSX will move upmarket, and will target Aston Martin.
2008 NSX II will offer a 4.5 Liter V10 and a 3.6 V6 , all wheel drive with prices around $100,000.
