When is a car a 'supercar?' - 06/08/2021 14:58
A number of times this year we've had supercar rallies around the coast, they are largely Ferrari, Lambo and Porsche, but what is it that makes them super; brand, performance, price?
I suspect if I turned up in the coop or the Alfa I'd get laughed at, but some Alfas would probably meet the criteria.
If it's performance, some tuned coops, Nissans and Fords would give them a run for their money.
If it's price one of the most common vehicles around here is the Range Rover which can cost £100k, but not that exclusive or 'super' to my mind.
If it's Brand does that mean all cars from that manufacturer, Porsche and Ferrari have had a few duds, there are some 'supercar' Mercs but most aren't.
