Ferrari F60
Price around £900,000
Ferrari has in development a new flagship successor for the amazing Enzo of
2003. Based on 2007′s Millechili concept, the new car is expected to place an emphasis
on lightness and be, from a performance point-of-view, on a par with the FXX.
Why bother to make a new car as good as an old one? Well, the point is that
the FXX was not road legal while the new F60 will be. Power is anticipated to
come from a V8 (rather than the V12, thus saving weight), but with twin
turbochargers and exceeding 700bhp.
Production will probably be as limited as the Enzo with not more than 400
units, and the price somewhere in the region of £900,000.

BMW X4
After a few years of hesitation, BMW has decided to greenlight the X4. This
is a smaller X6, sharing a platform with the X3. While initially afraid of cannibalising
the X3, BMW was convinced by the success of the X6 that there is definitive
room for a sporty compact crossover. Strong indicated sales of the
sharp-looking Range Rover Evoque may also have encouraged them.

BMW 3 Series saloon
Under the supervision of Adrian van Hoydoonk, BMW has toned down its
styling, selling today something a lot less controversial than what Chris
Bangle was offering a decade ago. Judging the new styling is strictly subjective,
but whether you like or not, it is soon going to affect the 3 Series.
As BMW makes the design changes starting from the top of the range, the new
3 Series will step into the aesthetic line visible on the new 5 Series and 7
Series. However, this smaller saloon will as usual be the athlete of the range
with sleek lines and visible muscles.

Bentley Cross Continental
Prices are expected to start at £120,000
The new CEO of Bentley, Wolfgang Dürheimer, has announced that the company
will expand its model line-up with three new cars. Presented here is the new
crossover/SUV, which is rumoured to be called the Cross Continental.
The future Bentley range will be sharing platforms with the Porsche brand
(now a full part of the VW family rather than a distant cousin), and in this
particular case, under the surface the goodies will be the same as in the
Porsche Cayenne. Obviously the trim will be a lot more luxurious, and the
engine, a Bentley exclusive, is the reworked W12 unit with more than 600bhp.

The G63 is part of Mercedes Benz’s G-class series. It is a four-wheel drive
sports utility vehicle that features a boxy style and body on frame
construction. The G63 also has three fully locking differentials. While it
obviously would not handle as well as a sports car, the extremely well built
vehicle boasts of a 5.5-liter V8 engine with maximum 544 horsepower.
Kardashian was initially spotted with a white version of this vehicle. Recently
however, she was seen driving a black matte-colored G63 customized by Platinum
Motorsport, an auto customization shop based in Los Angeles. There is no word
yet if they are one and the same vehicle or if she has bought a new one.

Ferrari 458 Italia
This is a mid-engine sports car that has the typical sporty styling and
features one can expect from a Ferrari. Pininfarina designed the body that
maximizes aerodynamic efficiency, drawing inspiration from Enzo Ferrari’s
Millechili concept car. It has deformable winglets in the front grille that
automatically lowers as the car goes faster in order to reduce drag, thereby
allowing it to have speed that can go up to 124 miles per hour. The
steering wheel has been designed like that of a racing car’s, with the controls
and features incorporated into it as against the usual design of having them in
the dashboard. Those who regularly watch Keeping Up with the Kardashians will
probably be familiar with this, as she used her white Ferrari 458 Italia to
prank her stepfather, the Olympic gold medalist decathlete Bruce Jenner.
