Hassanal Bolkiah, Sultan of Brunei, is a proud collector of the world’s most unique and fastest car collection. He owns 7000 luxury cars, which are often stored in five ultra-secret aircraft hangars with a team of specialists from different car manufacturers to maintain them well.

Hollywood star Nicolas Cage likes spending his money on flash motors. His car collection includes Porsches, Ferraris and a 500bhp Corvette. Besides, he owns the stunning motor called super-rare Jaguar D-Type. This motor can accelerate from 0-60mph in seven seconds before topping out at 174mph.

Although the 458 was announced as a replacement for the outgoing F430 model, it was actually based on an entirely different design that was driven by Ferrari's learning experiences from Formula 1 rather than the F430. The 458 was designed by Pininfarina. There have been unconfirmed reports that the inspiration for the design was drawn from the Ferrari Enzo and was designed to be Ferrari's best V8 car, significantly distinguishing itself from the current Ferrari California model. Although it would be hard to notice, the design was actually driven heavily by the aerodynamic capabilities and efficiencies.

With such acceleration performance, it comes natural for both cars to excel in the braking department. The two cars offer optional ceramic discs for impressive stopping.

The engine of the F40 was a very powerful one as it had an enlarged 2.9 liter engine that was a type of engine modeled after the GTO's twin IHI turbocharged V8 developing 478 bhp (356 kW) under 16 PSI (110 kPa) of boost. Even though the two engines shared many similarities many of the parts were made better and various settings were altered. One of the defining characteristics of the F40 is the low ground clearance that the vehicle has. The ground clearance can be changed though as Ferrari saw the need to be able to increase the ground clearance.

While each car is built with unique care at the FerrariFactory in Maranello, Italy, which now doubles as a tourist attraction and a kind of museum, it is perhaps more appropriate to say that what Ferrari does is a craft, that their engineers and designers are artisans, and that each car is a work of art in its own right.

And the final disappointment landed on the top. No rag top for me. Another reminder: "This is Southern California. Spyders are popular," said the perpetually smiling salesman of the cars in the showroom. (Or is it spiders?) This was a reference not to multi-legged insects, not one of which was in the room, but to the term they use for popular convertibles where the sun shines perpetually. The company that makes my small car calls convertibles "cabriolets." I don't know why so many different names exist for cars without roofs. Or is it rooves?

Clarkson sees the science of downdraft at speed in those curves. My eyes see the seduction of art, at speed or standing still. The guys with the wax won't say what they're seeing!
