Sports Cars I would like to thank everyone for commenting. This entry is my 20th featured content, thank you all for making this happen. I will update around Wednesday.

"Lamborghini Gallardo"--This car is my dream car. It has a V-10 engine that produces 520 horsepower. It goes from 0-60 in 4 seconds. The price is about $180,000. I know Lamborghinis aren't reliable as Japanese or even American cars, but they sure are fast and hot-looking.

"Lamborghini Countach"--This was the most famous Lamborghini of all time. It was for sale from 1980 to 1989. This is the one you usually see on posters. They don't make this anymore. But you can still buy them used.

"1980s Ferrari"--This old school car is still a beauty. Similar to Lamborghinis, Ferraris aren't reliable as Japanese, German, and American cars. But similar to Lamborghinis, Ferraris are fast and hot-looking.
 
"Ferrari 360 Modena"--This is one of the current Ferrari models. I think this is the nicest of the current models. It has about 400 horsepower. It does 0-60 in 4.3 seconds. It's around $175,000.


"Toyota Supra"--The Supra from 1993-1998 was the ultimate Toyota sports car. The car cost around $45,000. The car had 320 horsepower. Of course if you tune it, it should be more than 320 horsepower. This Supra was also hot-looking. Around 2008, Toyota will unveil their next supercar. The car is suppose produce around 500 horsepower without tuning. The car might also be label as a Lexus rather than a Toyota.


"Acura NSX (Honda NSX)"--This was Honda's supercar. It cost around $90,000. It was one of the lightest and balanced car in the world. When it first came out in the early 1990s, it was successful. A lot of people were buying it. It had 270 horsepower and it does a 0-60 in about 5 seconds. These specs for back in the early 1990s were a lot. But of course compare to today's sports cars, these specs are a joke. So currently not a lot of people are buying NSXs. In 2005 Honda stopped the production of the NSX. Honda is now working on a new supercar that will produce about 450-500 horsepower. Whether this new car will be call NSX, we'll not sure yet. We'll found out by 2008.


"Nissan 350Z"--This car is currently the best selling sports car out there. It cost around $35,000. This car is currently Nissan's flagship. When it first came out in 2003, it had 287 horsepower. Now it has 300 horsepower, without tuning. This car, I must say is one good-looking car. This is Nissan's flagship car in America. Else where, it's the Nissan Skyline GTR. Nissan is currently working on the new Skyline GTR. This new car is suppose to produce around 450 horsepower without tuning. This new GTR will finally be available in America. It should be ready in 2008.


"Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution (EVO)"--The EVO is currently the ultimate Japanese sports car. It may not be pretty and nice-looking as the other sports cars, but in terms of performance it's deadly. It does 0-60 in 4 seconds. It has 286 horsepower, without tuning. This is one of the sports cars that proved all-wheel-drive (the other being the Subaru WRX) is better than rear-wheel-drive for a sports car. It is one of the best handling cars out there. It cost around $35,000. Mitsubishi is currently working on the next generation of the EVO. This next EVO should be available around 2008. I know a lot of sports cars enthusiasts are either sided with the Subaru STI or the EVO. There are a lot of debates over these two awesome cars. But I'll go with the EVO.


"Ford Pinto"--This car is a classic. It's well known (for the wrong reasons though). Pinto in Spanish means "to go." What's ironic is that it doesn't go. The Pinto has been part of many jokes (including mine). This car you can say, is charming. If you ride this car around downtown, you will be noticed. People will smile at you. Imagine modifying this car. Putting 18 inch rims on this. Giving it chrome rims. Putting a big-ass spoiler on the back. Giving it a big muffler. Putting HID lighting on it. And riding it around downtown. That would be something.
