5 Most Impressing Sports Cars That You Should Pay Attention To

At all times, sports cars were subject to very specific requirements. They should combine not only the perfection of technical characteristics and luxurious equipment but also the original design. Comparable to the completed masterpiece, sports cars are able to impress the public, but at the same time look harmonious after decades.

A sports car is the perfection of style and advanced technology. People who buy or lease sports cars are not accustomed to compromises. That’s why such cars should demonstrate design at the level of a world masterpiece. Here is a list of five most impressing sports cars that you should pay attention to

1. Lotus Elise Series 2

This car was produced back in 2000 and retained the general style of its predecessors. Created at the end of the era of bio-design, it embodies the best of its qualities, which made it possible to achieve outstanding aerodynamics.

As for the technical features and interior of the car, they are quite modest. The in-line four-cylinder engine is located transversely in the base of the car. The power of the base model is only 122 hp, but thanks to its low weight, acceleration to the first hundred takes 5.9 seconds.

2. Pagani Zonda C12 S 7.3

If we talk about beauty, then Pagani Zonda will not leave anyone indifferent. Someone categorically doesn’t like its appearance, and someone considers it the pinnacle of style. In any case, the car turned out to be outstanding not only in terms of technical characteristics.

The maximum speed of 350 km/h makes it possible to safely attribute it not just to sports cars, but to supercars. The mid-engine layout with rear axle drive allows you to experience all the delights of driving such a powerful car (602 hp). But there was an extreme modification with a twelve-cylinder engine and a return of 750 forces.

3. Nissan Skyline GT-R (R33)

Against the background of its predecessor, the Nissan Skyline looks somewhat modest, and its technical characteristics are no longer impressive. But, nevertheless, 450 hp. and acceleration to the first hundred in 4 seconds increase the objectivity of the assessment. Given that these figures are achieved with an engine displacement of 2.6 liters, the result is really impressive. 

As for appearance, this car has become not just a favorite of the public, it has set the main canons for the development of sports car manufacturing in Japan.

4. Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren

This carrier of the three-pointed star became a style icon immediately after the publication. Its appearance, an aggressive radiator grille flowing into the hood, together with doors swinging upwards, exceeded the wildest expectations. This model has become the reincarnation of the roadsters of the 50s of the last century and has absorbed the main features of the best examples, adapted to modern realities. 

It did not look like any of the produced cars or prototypes, so it became a fresh stream in the design world. Against the background of unsurpassed comfort, a wide range of additional equipment and refined handling, the SLR McLaren has become truly iconic, and its name has become a household name in the world of sports cars.

5. Lamborghini Diablo

If we talk about style, then we can’t skip Lamborghini Diablo, which became a fundamental step for the entire Lamborghini brand. And to this day it is the first model that comes to mind when mentioning sports and racing cars.

The design, despite its belonging to the “folded sheet” style, which was outdated at that time, turned out to be so fresh and original that the common features preserved in subsequent models look harmonious to this day.
