Which country makes or has made the best supercar?

[Rockefella]

That is a bit of a half-assed opinion. I take it you put Bugatti first because the Veyron will be the fastest supercar so that automatically makes it the best. BTW, the Veyron might never make it into production so it isn't a supercar, but a concept car. And you put the corvette instead of Chevrolet because the corvette is Chevrolet's only superca,r if you can call it a supercar that is.

No need to bash him on his opinion.

Great Britain definatly makes the best supercars heres some of the best

Mclaren F1
Jag XJ220
Noble M400
Ascari KZ1
Lotus Esprit
TVR Sagaris
TVR Typhon (if they bother to make it)

A few things, firstly the Enzo is hideous and doesnt do justice to the great man himself, secondly just because TVR is owned by one russian man doesnt automatically make it russian and by the way is MG going to make the the SVR with the added nitrous kit???

what car do you think should get first place????

the Enzo is hideous

Word. Except for the back, that angle isn't bad.

But I still say that the Supercar arena is and always has been the Italian domain. Other supercars just don't get regarded with the kind of awe as as italian one - any Italian one - does.

I know I was just kidding

Is Aston really a Supercar marque? I've always thought of it as super premium, but never really Supercar status...

[Ferrari Tifosi]

Hmmmm, very close between Italy, Germany, and Britain, with Italy coming out on top. The Enzo and the Zonda are amazing.

[Fabio Ferrari]

Italy, is the out right champion of supercar creators, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Pagani. But just Ferrari and Lamborghini are worlds most famous Supercar makers. I think the only actuall British Supercar maker is Aston Martin, because none of the other british makers could even make anything that could compare to a passionate Italian supercar maker. I find it rather humourous that Coventrysucks considered MG to be a supercar maker. Oh well everyone has there own opinion, it is interesting to see how different everyone is. Cheers mates.

[Fabio Ferrari]

amen bro, i have to agree with you

every year, italy produces the most desirable supercars ever. ther hot, fast, sound great and have history behind their badges

with cars like the Enzo, Zonda, Murcielago Rodster and Maserati MC12, i think they are on top of the world for supercars

Took the words right out of my mouth mate.

Rather than listing the long LONG list of British marquese which ARE supercars and some of which coudl be considered 'best' I'll just add a piece of fact on the MG which maybe you've not seen/heard.....

The MG XPower SV-R, see http://www.mgxpowersv.com/

It's not MY preference, but at Knockhill earlier this year it was the SV that was attracting people attention over the F40 that was there. The only Ferrari to 'beat it' was the 360 racing cars from Scuderia Ecosse

oh .... and the Noble up with them all for a FRACTION of the price. Which raises the question ... do we decide 'supercar' based on price or quality ??

Well I am aware that MG produce this car, and the fact is that just because an Auto maker produces one supercar it doesnt make it a Supercar Make, if we go along these lines then nearly every car company is a Supercar maker, for example Ford, Chevrolet, Dodge, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Honda, Acura, that is just a short list but there are more, and for makes like Mclaren who produce 1 car every 10 years or so should not be considered a supercar maker either. To me it seems that anyone who has alot of money can make a supercar, and if it is fast then people will automatically think it is the best. I just want people to realize that some of these makes should not even be considered.

When is the ascari KZ1 out?

I see what you're saying Fabio.

can I perhaps rephrase it ?

"A supercar is made in a Ferrari factory.
Any car made anywhere else or by anyone else IS NOT a supercar because it's not built liek or by Ferrari."

Well that's how it read to me

PS: Fiat own Ferrari, Fiat make crap cars and lots of them so the Ferrari marque can't be a supercar. Well that's the logic proposed anyway
