The
Lamborghini is probably the most recognized of mega exotic sports cars from
Italy. The Diablo's evolution from the outdated boxy Countach led it to
possess a sleeker body and far more advanced engine. The final years of
this vehicle had the most impressive performance numbers of any previous
Lamborghini. The diablo is fairly successful to sell at least 300+ units
a year at nearly 300 grand. |

Released
in 1999 The S7 was a departure from the previous Saleens which were merely
modified Fords. The S7 is clearly inspired by the McLaren F1 but lacks the
overall exoticism of its rival. The S7 is however considerably less expensive
at 375 grand and performs well but not as strong on the racetrack. |
Engine 7 liter V-8 |
| Horsepower 550 | |
| Top Speed 200mph | |
| Acceleration 0-60mph 3.9sec |

Designed
by Pinanfarina, home of the Ferrari design team, the Zonda C12S is designed
to look like a jet fighter for the roads. This extremely rare and elegant
vehicle rivals the price and performance of the 280 grand lamborghini diablo.
But at 380 grand it fell short by performance value. By the time of its
release in 1999 no one was thrilled due to the overcrowded and over priced
market. |

The
Porsche 911 Turbo is and always will be a legend. What sets it apart from
the other cars is the worldwide success of this rear engine, all wheel drive
technological beast. The car can seem tame and elegant at cruising speed,
but rev her up and you have an unstoppable monster. This is a 120 grand
gentleman's sportscar. |
Engine 3.6 liter flat-6 twin turbo |
| Horsepower 415 | |
| Top Speed 190mph | |
| Acceleration 0-60mph 4sec |

Detroits
answer to the supercar world proved to be a success. The 1989 concept to
production of the original Dodge Viper RT/10 roadster was a cult hit in
the States. In 1997 the need for a race worthy coupe called for the GTS.
Designed by legendary car maker Carol Shelby, the GTS delivers monster torque
from a V-10 Dodge truck engine. At 85 grand this car is a bargain compared
to the performance of its mega exotic rivals. |
