(ThyBlackMan.com) Who doesn’t love to go fast in their car? Ok, that was rhetorical. There are clearly lots of people who think that hitting the gas pedal will immediately cause the world to spiral out of control and then open up a black hole that will ultimately destroy us all. But there are still some true believers who can handle their speed without fear. People who know just when and how to use their accelerator. When you’re tired of hearing your current car groan from the weight of your foot, take comfort that the following 10 cars are out there just waiting to meet your feet. We’ll give you an expensive fast car and then even out your expectations with a much more affordable car to follow.
Porsche 911 Turbo S
This 500 (or more) horsepower car gets to 60 miles an hour in 2.9 seconds, and the speedster is described as the Benchmark by Porsche. Lean into the curves and conquer the road in this baby.
Ford Mustang Eco Boost
Economical and fun to drive, the Eco Boost can give you up to 60 miles an hour in just about 5 seconds. For a price tag of just $22,500, it’s entirely worth those extra 2 seconds if you can’t afford the luxury brands.
Lamborghini Aventador SV
Obviously a Lamborghini would make this list, and the Italian car-maker has done a lot to improve the driving dynamics for the Aventador, and the 740 horsepower car can get up to 60 in 2.8 seconds.
Nissan 370Z
Nissan is good at making cheap cars that don’t disappoint their customers. In just 5.1 seconds, you can see your speedometer hit 60 with the Nissan 370Z. With 332 horsepower, this car is a steal at just under $30,000.
Bugatti Veyron Super Sport
Ever wanted to go around 270 miles an hour? Thankfully that will only cost you more than $1.5 million. The trade-off of power and cost is made ever clearer as cars continue to get faster. This unbelievable car can get you over 60 miles an hour in 2.5 seconds, a feat that is achieved with 1,200 horsepower and 1,106 pound-feet of torque. Yum.
Chevrolet Camaro 1LT
Take this 335 horsepower car for a spin if you’re looking for something that’s both sexy and fun to drive. The V6 engine will impress your friends and keep you flying down the highway with smooth acceleration. Plus it’s a lot cheaper than that Corvette.
Ferrari LaFerrari
It’s certainly not the cleverest name in the world, but this hybrid will definitely get the job done. This car can get you to 120 miles an hour in under 7 seconds, and it does it all with 950 horsepower and an environmentally-conscious angle.
Hyundai Genesis R-Spec
This car is 348 horsepower and something that’s sure to fit into your price range. Hyundai has worked for years to get back into the public’s good graces and their efforts continue to be noticed by even the more discerning car lovers.
Corvette Z06
Believe it or not, this car is good on gas when you’re not revving it up to 60 in 2.95 seconds or seeing just how fast you can take those hair-pin turns. Comes with an 8-speed transmission and a somewhat reasonable $80,000 sticker price (well, reasonable for this kind of car anyway.)
Scion FR-S
This car was designed to look like a much more expensive car, and the insides aren’t so bad either. Excellent handling, 200 horsepower and 4-cylinder engine make for a fun drive with a speedy zip and excellent acceleration.
