JAGUAR F-TYPE

On sale: May 2013

Price: $69,000

The new-century's F-type is a two-seat convertible engineered to be a true high-performance sports car. Made of lightweight aluminum, it comes with either a supercharged 3-liter V6 (delivering 340 or 380 hp) or a 495-hp, 5-liter supercharged V8. The driver sits low and snug in a leather-wrapped cabin (with no trace of traditional Jaguar wood) equipped with a chunky wheel and an eight-speed Quickshift transmission with steering wheel-mounted paddles. So far, road tests indicate it will win hearts; we'll have to see if it wins sales against its German rivals.

2014 BENTLEY GT SPEED CONVERTIBLE

2014 BENTLEY GT SPEED CONVERTIBLE

On sale: Now

Price: $245,000

Bentley's new open-top flagship is a truly breath-taking Grand Tourer with a top speed of 202 mph (hats and hairpieces not recommended). A shattering 616 hp is delivered by its twin-turbocharged, 6.0-liter W12 engine via a close-ratio eight-speed transmission. An uprated and lowered suspension and retuned steering provide exhilarating acceleration and sharp, communicative handling without spoiling the comfortable ride. Permanent all-wheel drive ensures optimum grip whatever the conditions.

Its handcrafted cabin features the Mulliner Driving Specification, mixing contemporary luxury with a distinctly sporty character. The roof is made from four layers of fabric, all because customers don't want to spoil the line of the rear deck when it's stowed.

ASTON MARTIN RAPIDE S

On sale: April 2013

Price: $199,950

Now in its 100th year, Aston Martin has a strong, refreshed lineup, and its latest addition is the revamped Rapide S. The luxury four-door coupĂ© has been re-engineered to make it even more powerful and refined. It's also had a redesign, with a "more assertive face" — though the front has a touch of Ford Fusion (though any imitation was probably the other way around).

There's a new AM11 6.0-liter V12 delivering 470 hp, meaning the new Rapide S shaves 0.3 seconds from its zero-to-62 mph time, dropping it to a mere 4.9 seconds. Top speed climbs to more than 190 mph.

New dynamic stability control (DSC) and the latest Gen4 version of Aston Martin's hi-tech adaptive damping system (ADS) sharpen already-crisp dynamics.

PORSCHE 911 GT3

On sale: Late 2013

Price: $130,400

The fifth generation of this exhilarating sports coupe gets a new engine, transmission, body and chassis. It can sprint from zero to 60 mph in 3.3 seconds on its way to a top track speed of 195 mph, and features the first active rear-wheel steering in a production Porsche.

Power is punched out by a 3.8-liter boxer engine that develops 475 hp and can be revved up to the 9,000 rpm redline. Lightweight titanium connecting rods and forged pistons were developed specially, as was the dual-clutch transmission delivering power to the rear wheels; its characteristics are based directly on a sequential racing gearbox.

Its large, fixed rear wing helps with aerodynamics as well as announces the car's presence like a bullhorn.
