So with the new higher emission standards at both the US and Europe are now enforcing, the luxury companies are having a time to figure out how to find their niche in this market as well. Out of the gate, they are trying the luxury small edition… and by small, I am talking Smart car small!

Now, I am not sure that we will ever see James Bond saving the world in this mini Aston Martin but if he did, he would at least be saving part of the world while he did it. And though the outside of this luxury car may be shrink, the company promises that none of the interior luxury items will be cheapened.

It is nice to see a new american luxury car company start up again it gives me hope.   The last time one that I remember is DeLorean, which sadly went out of business in 1982.   Tesla is fighting an uphill to cut into the sports car market that some companies are been in for 50 years.

The reviews of their roadster is quite good.  It is sporty and quick and it handles well in the corners.   It has received grants from the U.S. Dept of Energy for its electric roadster.   So if you are looking for a new sports car that is both fun and eco-friendly, here it is.

Japan is finally is putting their food into the Super car market. According to Nissan, the GT-R will stand toe to toe with the BMW M6, Porsche 911 GT2 and the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren. Now, I am ready to try this bad boy out.

The price tag for this beautiful car starts at 79 which isn’t bad. Also, for the eco-friendly bunch, there is no cleaner tailpipe on a supercar. But with all this it is goes 0 – 60 in 3.3 seconds, now that is fast!
