This engineering masterpiece, equipped with a sport button that turns this everyday driver into a passionate beast, goes from zero to 60 in a G-force-inflicting 3.4 seconds. When I push the button, the coupe tightens its shocks and hunkers down to scorch the road. Just imagine: 480 horses from a horizontally opposed 3.6-liter, six-cylinder, twin-turbo engine. But there’s no fear on my part because this turbo exhibits surgically sharp steering. It’s almost like I think about turning and I do. There’s perfect road feel and communication between car and driver. Paired with all this acceleration performance is an array of safety features, including traction control, ABS, a sophisticated stability management system, all-wheel drive and airbags a go-go. Think of it as a raucous amusement-park ride that’s been pulled from its rails and readied for a road near you. Tip: To handle this Turbo’s formidable power, choose the high-performance ceramic brakes for $8,840.
