    Porsche's newest car, unveiled Wednesday at the Greater LA Auto Show, is the Cayman S, a 295-horsepower, two-seat coupe. The company's R&D director called it a "bridge between the Boxster roadster and the 911 Carrera." The car is in production, but doesn't yet have a specified price.

    Volkswagen GX3

    From the concept car folks at Volkswagen comes the GX3. A three-wheeler, the fuel-efficient motorcycle-class car can be driven in the commuter lane with only one driver. The car's designer hopes to put it into production and have it ready for sale in 2007.

    Derek Jenkins

    Derek Jenkins, Volkswagen's chief designer in North America, had the idea for a three-wheeler and worked with a team to develop the GX3 over the last 18 months in California. The 1,300-pound car gets about 46 miles per gallon and can go from zero to 60 in 5.9 seconds. If the car comes to market it would be priced somewhere between $10,000 and $20,000.

    Jeep Hurricane

    One of Jeep's concepts, the Hurricane, has two V-8 engines, one in front and one in the rear. If the combined 670 horsepower isn't enough to grab you, how about the ability to turn all four wheels at once for a very, very tight 360-degree turn? For a concept car with a different take on getting out of a tight spot, and a not so rugged look, there's the Nissan Pivo.
