Gallery: The 10 Coolest Cars at the New York Auto Show

01
McLaren 570S
Looking to take a chunk out of Porsche's 911 sales, McLaren gives us the 570S: a toned down take on its 650S that can still hit 60 mph in 3.2 seconds and top out at 204 mph. Starting price for the brand's first sports car---rather than supercar---is $184,900.
Honda
02
Honda Civic Concept
The Civic is the kind of average vehicle gobs of people buy because it's affordable, reliable, and inoffensive. But at this year's show, Honda proved it can still excite. This coupe concept, in nuclear-ooze green, is a hint at styling for the tenth-gen Civic, and that's made us very excited.

Smart Car
03
2016 smart fortwo
Smart's tactic for the new generation of the Fortwo was to leave the basic form alone and add improvements wherever possible. The result is a tighter turning radius (22.8 feet), an updated face, and a double-clutch auto transmission to replace the one that made changing gears feel like being inside a martini shaker.
04
Porsche Boxster Spyder
Porsche took a break from cranking out SUVs to drop the most powerful Boxster ever. With 375 hp and strict weight-cutting (no A/C or radio included), it'll run 0 to 60 mph in 4.3 seconds. Starts for $82,000.

Bentley
05
Bentley EXP 10 Speed 6
Bentley's been quiet about technical details for its EXP 10 Speed 6 concept, but the specs don't matter. What's important here is that this svelte, low, two-seater is meant to show us "the potential Bentley of sports cars"---meaning the British brand may have some very fun ideas in the works.
06
Cadillac CT6
We don't have all the details on the all-new CT6, Cadillac's new range-topper, but we do know it'll come with a twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6 good for 400 horsepower and two 10-inch screens inside.

07
Aston Martin Vulcan
Aston Martin justifies the Vulcan's $2.3 million price tag by building just two dozen of them. Also, the fact that it's made of carbon fiber and is packing a 7.0-liter V12 mounted just behind the front axle that drives the rear wheels.
08
Lincoln Continental
In its continuing Odyssey to resurrect Lincoln, Ford announced this week it's bringing back the Continental. The car---technically a concept---doesn't stand out ([except to a peeved Bentley designer](http://www.roadandtrack.com/new-cars/future-cars/news/a25424/bentley-designer-slams-lincoln-continental-concept/)), but we welcome the idea of fresh blood with a respected name.

09
2016 Jaguar XF
The 2016 XF isn't a radical departure from outgoing model, but it is much improved. Lighter, faster, more efficient, and more comfortable, it's the second car built on Jaguar's aluminum-intensive architecture.
10
Subaru STI Performance Concept
Packed with a new racing engine, a massive rear wing, and enough aerodynamic features to keep wind tunnel testers busy for years, the STI Performance Concept shows what Subaru could do for its performance division.
