With 1 day to go, I believe I've seen the elusive Dubai Big 5.
5) Ferrari 458 - The elephant of the desert. In large supply. Can be found grazing in most hotel car parks. Majestic but avoids confrontation from the others.
4) Nissan Skyline GT-R - The desert's water buffalo. Unassuming but deadly. The water buffalo is considered the most dangerous of the Big 5. The GT-R should be handled with the same care. Take it for granted, it will tear you apart. We stalked this beauty for several blocks before finding it parking in front of our hotel.
2. McLaren MP4-12C - The lion of the desert. Graceful and deadly. Comes from a long pedigree of powerful relatives. We've seen 2 here. 1 parked and one cruising the palm islands. Should not be taken lightly. Sadly, no pictures exist of this elusive beast from our safaris so a stock photo has been used instead.
1. Mercedes SLS AMG - The ever elusive leopard. I heard it before seeing it then turned to only catch the tail end as it hurried from view. A true killing machine. The scarcity of this beast should be noted due to the price and exclusivity. Again, this one evaded my tracking ability and snuck off into the night.
Other notables:
Porsche Cayenne. The wildabeast of Dubai. Plentiful and aggressive but no real danger.
Any non-S or RS Audi, non-M series BMW, or non-AMG powered Merc - The giraffe of the desert. Knows their place, minds their own business and will not antagonize the more powerful creatures.
Bentley Continental - The cheetah. Beautiful and graceful but simply no match due to it's size and weight. Would be eaten alive by the others despite being quite ferocious.

3. Lamborghini Gallardo - The rhino of Dubai. Lumbering but confident. Wide in the rear but quick. An endangered species. Last of the V-12s. A wide berth should be taken with the Lambo as he has a quick temper and dangerous charge.
