When you think of high-speed vehicles smaller than a car, what comes to mind? Probably a motorcycle, right? Indeed, when it comes to tearing through the highways and racing the wind, two-wheeled transportation is probably what you're looking for. However, while they won't be beating the speed of the Kawasaki Ninja any time soon, you shouldn't count out other small vehicles. ATVs and ATCs from prominent brands like Yamaha, for instance, can make quite a mark on the road in their own right, and with the extra strength and control that comes from three to four rugged tires at that.

While Honda is arguably better known today for manufacturing some of the most durable and fuel-efficient four-wheeled vehicles on the road, it's worth noting that the Japanese company actually got its start building vehicles with two wheels.

With its production run spanning four decades, and eight generations, the Pontiac Grand Prix was among the GM-owned carmaker's most popular vehicles. For most of the decade after its 1962 introduction, Pontiac positioned the Grand Prix as a full-size performance coupe. Over successive generations, however, the car would undergo several transformational changes, culminating in it eventually becoming a four-door sedan by the time its production run ended in 2008. Well over a decade since the last Pontiac Grand Prix rolled out of the assembly lines, the car is still very much in demand — especially the older variants of the car dating back to the '60s and '70s.

Aftermarket tuners rarely understand the concept of restraint, but Novitec is among the few that do. Although its latest take on a Ferrari supercar is considerably more extreme than usual, it's also cohesive and far from excessive, despite the exaggerated bodywork. Suitable for both the 296 GTB coupe and the 296 GTS drop-top, the Novitec N-Largo kit gives the smallest Fezza more power and presence, the latter thanks to a widebody kit that incorporates styling elements from several other Ferraris.
