Lotus revealed its new Emira sports car this week, the British automaker's last model to feature an internal-combustion engine of any sort. The Emira has two engine options to choose from; one is the same supercharged Toyota engine powering the outgoing Evora, and the other is a new unit sourced from Mercedes-Benz AMG.
Lamborghini Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae

2021 Porsche 911 Turbo S
We spent more time behind the wheel of the latest Porsche 911 Turbo S, this time the coupe. The car is hard to beat in most performance metrics, though for most buyers the slightly tamer Turbo will probably suffice. There's no wrong option here.
