CAR INFO
Still known as America's sports car, the Chevrolet Corvette got a full redesign and a more powerful engine for the 2005 model year. Shorter and slightly narrower than its predecessor and sporting fixed headlights rather than pop-up units, the sixth-generation coupe and convertible promise nearly as much passenger space. A super-performance Z06 edition with a 505-horsepower V-8 engine debuts for 2006.

Ferrari Enzo
The McLaren is a true supercar — a modern update of the legendary racing machines from Mercedes-Benz's past. An AMG-developed 5.5-liter V-8 produces 617 horsepower. The front crash structure is made exclusively of carbon fiber.
Introduced in the U.S. as a midseason 2005 model, Ferrari's latest two-seater succeeds the automaker's 360 Modena. Available in both coupe and convertible form, the F430 is powered by a 490-horsepower V-8. Little has changed for the 2006 model year.
350z
Descended from the legendary line of Z-cars that began with the Datsun 240Z, Nissan's modern-day sport coupe and soft-top Roadster combine visual appeal with serious rear-wheel-drive sports-car behavior. For 2006, the 350Z receives exterior and interior styling updates, and manual-transmission models gain 13 horsepower for a total of 300 hp.
FORD GT
Simply put, the Ford GT is an all-American supercar that was created in homage to the GT40 racecars that dominated competition at Le Mans in the mid-1960s. A supercharged, midmounted V-8 produces 550 horsepower, which is roughly equivalent to the output from the original, larger engine that went into competition GT40 cars. A limited-edition model for 2006 commemorates Ford's 1966 victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Most sports-car fans have probably never seen a Saleen S7, much less driven one. Manufactured by hand in extremely small numbers, the California-built supercar holds a 750-horsepower V-8.
