    Aston-Martin-V12-Zagato

    I't usually a fan of British cars they are beauties without the beast factor. Zagato is much different from the very popular DB9 and Vantage V8 but not with the engine or build. The graceful lines and the curves are just beautiful yet they convey the power within the car.. In other words, it is a gentleman's GT car.

  • Bentley-Mulsanne

    Bentley-Mulsanne

    Bentley Mulsanne, the name synonymous with moolah, is a 5 seater sedan with a monstrous engine with a capacity just under 7 liters. An able car that can turn out 505 horsepower with the V8 engine and 8 speed automatic transmission, it can also reduce CO2 emissions and save up to 15% of fuel compared to the previous bersion of the V8. Like most other Bentley cars, this is also hand made taking upto 320 hours of labor to put together all the pieces and get it running. The extremely luxurious wooden veneer, hand stitched leather, polished stainless steel grill interiors take up at least a half of the production time.

  • Ferrari-458-Spider

    Ferrari-458-Spider

    No list of supercars, beauty or powerwise, even begins without a Ferrari on it. So we made it a point to include this $257 grande beast on the list. Concealed under the hood is a V8 engine capable of taking you from a dead stop to 100 kmph in just 3.3 seconds. Make sure you don't pass out with the Gs generated. The hard-cover convertible has stunning looks similar to the Ferrari Italia when the roof is down. Believe me when I say this is the most beautiful car you with the advantage of being a convertible too.

  • JaguarC-X16

    JaguarC-X16

    Aluminum body, hybrid electric car, an automatic 8 speed ZF transmission; need I say more. It is yet to be in production sadly and for now is just a concept car. The impressive 375 bhp petrol engine, V6 along with a electric motor or 92 bhp is the reason it is here on the list with me hoping that it would go into production soon. The deceptive looks might keep your mind of the "concept" tag on the car.

  • Lamborghini-Aventador

    Lamborghini-Aventador

    The raging bull has made to the list with the Aventador, an inevitable finalist in the race. Car enthusiasts opine that this is everything one dreams of in a supercar; shouty, sexy, outlandish and inter-planetary. With definite and disctint lines, the trademark of all Lamborghinis, this model just accentuates giving you the impression that these are just models made of origami.

  • Maserati-Gran-Turismo

    Maserati-Gran-Turismo

    My personal favourite is the Italian made Maserati Gran Turismo. Think of all the good qualities of a super car and double them, tada!. Maserati outperforms most supercars in many fields. Sit inside the car and it feels like you have entered a football field, unlike most other supercars which feel a little bit low on the space. And just because it is big doesn't mean it cannot perform well. Under the long muscular hood is a engine originally from Ferrari. The exact opposite of the Vantage Va8, this has a sinister look to it which makes me want it even more; who wants discipline when you have the power!

  • McLaren-MP4-12C--2

    McLaren-MP4-12C--2

    Mc Laren MP4 12C has been around town since many days but it is only when you drive that this humble beauty also has power hidden waiting to be unleashed. The front gril smiles at you and I bet you cannot help but smile back at it.

  • Mercedes-Benz-SLS

    Mercedes-Benz-SLS

    Mercedes Benz SLS is the only second model developed independently by AMG after the SLS AMG last year with the most notable gull wings. 563 horsepower in the engine which can take you past the 300kmph mark is all you need with this sturdy beast. A definite eyeturner.

    There is no arguing the fact that the prototypes of the cars, especially ones like the E-type Jaguar or the original Porsche 911, have set the trend with fashionable looks. But the descendants of the cars which have been remodelled ever so slightly have stunning looks with mproved performance. Here is a list of few cars, chosen not by us but by Forbes, as the most beautiful cars of 2012. Take a look and visualize a ride!

  • Zenvo-ST1

    Zenvo-ST1

    A Danish car, not much heard of, but has extremely impressive specs of reaching a 100kmph from a standstill in just 2.9 seconds, the Zenvo ST1 is one car in which you should go for a ride. The 1250 horsepowered V8 engine with a 7 liter capacity is monstrous not in size but by churning out a 1050ft-lb of torque. The car is a rear wheel drive with a 7-speed manual transmission. Being built with the extremely light and equally durably carbon fiber it weighs just 3000 pounds. However, the company has announced that only 15 cars would be made and will go on sale in just three showrooms in the US.
