Ferrari F450 – Get a More Aggressive Look and Engine
We know that Ferrari is working on turbochargers and all-wheel-drive hybrids, and the hybrid portion of that equation could show up as soon as this year’s Los Angeles Auto Show. If so, Autocar supposes the car in question will be the new Ferrari F450. As Jaguar has reportedly planned with the XE, Ferrari could show off a hybrid F450 first in order to make an even bigger splash.
The main competitor, the child of the other Italian supercar producing house, the Lamborghini Gallardo uses a 5.0 liter originated from Audi. One might expect that Ferrari will improve their new comer displacement up to the same value in order to provide the same level of performance.
But, Ferrari is known to offer some of the best power per displacement ratios; therefore they are expected to produce 500 or more bhp, by only increasing the displacement to 4.5 liters. The rest of the power gain will be due to an increased maximum rev limit, of up to 10,000 rpm, improved air flowing and cooling.

The Audi R8 – Amazing Performance on The Asphalt
Known for its superb handling and high-revving engine, the Audi R8 puts others to shame. Its amazing performance on the asphalt is the product of some of the most advanced technology existing today, making it truly a masterpiece. It is based on the Lamborghini Gallardo, sharing the same sleek, luxurious design, yet its rounded, smooth shape makes it unique. It gives the driver an almost silent ride with a considerably roomy cab big enough for two, making it a rarity among others cars in its class.
Behind the wheel is the only way to feel the 420 hp its 4.2L V8 engine puts out. With the ability to accelerate from 0 to 60 in 4.4 seconds, calling this car fast is simply an understatement. Traction compliments speed. Being able to gain distance while competitors are spinning their tires puts the Audi R8 driver in a position to win. Such an extensive amount of traction is possible because of the all wheel drive system, just one more thing that makes the Audi R8 stand apart from many other high performance cars.
