NEW LAMBOS ARRIVE

The Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 Spyder has arrived. Eight out of the 10 cars allocated for this year have been booked. The car costs $938,000. Expect to see the 5.2-litre V10 sports car to hit the roads as early as next month.

NISSAN'S GT-R (OFFICIALLY) HERE

Tan Chong Motors, the distributor of Nissan, will finally be launching the GT-R, after parallel importers first brought in the car more than a year ago. Expected to go for around $295,000, the 'official' GT-R's first appearance will be at the Formula Drift event next month before being displayed at a dedicated 'High Performance Centre' show space at Tan Chong's facility at 911 Bukit Timah Road.

TOPLESS LEXUS

Borneo Motors will be launching the Lexus IS-C, a handsome four-seat hardtop convertible closely based on the IS250.

Priced at $188,000 with COE, the new car is a whole lot more accessible than the venerable two-seat SC430.

INFINITI AND BEYOND

Nissan's luxury brand, Infiniti, continues its plans to expand into the European market (before reaching our shores).

The sexier sibling to the G37 sedan, the G37 Convertible has a 3.7-litre V6 engine that makes 320bhp powering the rear wheels through a 7-speed automatic transmission. Good looks come standard.
