Ferrari 456M
If you've got $230,000 burning a hole in your pocket (and who doesn't, these days?), we can hardly think of a better way to cool the fire than with a pocket-quenching Ferrari 456M. After all, it gives you the 4.9-second to 60-mph acceleration of a 5.5-liter/436-horsepower V-12, awesome cornering capability, and even the comfort of a 2+2 interior. If that's not enough to pique your interest, a few minutes polishing the prancing stallion badge with a soft cloth should do the trick. The "M" in the 456's designation arrived in '98, signaling modifications to the leather interior, plus subtle performance tweaks and styling touches. Expect to see the same classic interior and pavement-shredding engine in 2000.
