The Best Affordable Sports Cars of 2022/2023
The Nissan Z is a modern revival of the 1969-1973 Datsun 240z. It boasts a V6 engine that produces 400 horsepower, which just edges out its more expensive competitor, the Toyota Supra GR. The interior is luxurious and modern, making it perfect for daily driving.
The Toyota Supra GR is the fierce competitor to the Nissan Z. Toyota focuses more on performance rather than practicality. While the interior may be a bit more lackluster, it displays performance than could compete with cars like the Porsche 911 and Jaguar F-type. 0-60 takes a mere 3.7 seconds, and it will complete the quarter mile in 12.2 seconds, which is incredibly impressive for a car in its price range.
The Volkswagen Golf R is the definition of a sleeper. It looks like an innocent family hatchback, but can easily dust most sports cars when you put your foot down. The car reaches 60 miles per hour from a standing start is just 3.9 seconds, and will keep going till 155 miles per hour. It also has space for 5 passengers and 20 cubic feet of cargo storage, allowing it to be an ideal daily driver.
The Kia Stinger GT is the quintessential example of a sports car that is perfect for the entire family. The cabin is luxurious and well designed, with a 10.3 inch touchscreen that allows you to play white noise as you drive. The Stinger GT is truly the pinnacle of modern technology on a budget. Its 4- cylinder engine outputs 300 horsepower and propels the car from 0-60 miles per in about 4.6 seconds.
The last car on the list may surprise you, due to its relatively expensive price tag. However, this is most likely the best bang for your buck car in the history of automobiles. For a third of the price of a Ferrari 488 GTB, you can have better performance and the same supercar flair. The V8 engine produces 670 hp, and 0-60 only takes 2.6 seconds. The top speed is nearly 195 miles per hour. If these stats still haven’t impressed you, here is link to a video of. a Corvette ZO6 leaving a Ferrari 458 and a Lamborghini Huracan Evo (two cars that are significantly more expensive) in its headlights.
