Lexus’s new flagship ls boasts two world-firsts that make stomping the gas in it more fun than in your average sedan. Electronic valve-timing actuators more precisely regulate the opening and closing of valves to improve emissions, especially during cold starts, and give the car quicker reflexes—no delay while passing trucks. And the eight-speed transmission harnessed to the 4.6-liter, 380-horsepower V8 means smoother acceleration (0–60 is 5.9 seconds) and more power to make that move. Done playing? Find a spot and let go of the wheel; the 460 will parallel park itself. $61,000; lexus.com
