Since the sports car came on the scene, it remains the best selling line of every car manufacturer that produces any version of its kind. Because of the sports car’s desirable appearance, extravagance, and the lifestyle it portrays, every driver takes a serious look at ownership at some point. To rev up your interest and whet your appetite, here are some top sports models worth a look:
1. The Aston Martin DB9 Volante has smooth lines and refined features similar to the Jaguar, but is clearly its own car. The DB9 sports more of a classic design and packs a punch with its 6-liter and 450-hp V12 engine that can get your noticed in a hurry while satisfying your need for speed.
2. The author’s personal favorite, the Chevrolet Corvette Convertible features up to 400-hp with smooth handling and suspension that’s ready for the racetrack. It is much more affordable than comparable cars with its price of $50,000. The pricing is low compared to other sports cars that have similar features and performance. The current edition of the Corvette is still the fastest in its class and remains the undisputed “King of the Road”.
3. The Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Roadster comes equipped with an awesome V12 engine lurking under the hood, capable of producing an incredible 604-hp. With an exotic look and design sure to turn heads, this car can rip the paint off of the competition with its raw power and speed.
4. The Jaguar XKR Convertible is features a distinctive appearance that only Jaguar can pull off – but this awesome car is not just about appearances. Compared to other versions of the Jag, the XKR is highly tuned and has a 390-hp V8 engine that will put a smile on your face.
Of course, there are far more sports cars available that could be called top of the line in their class and in their price categories. Which one is right for you? I’ve never heard a Corvette owner complain – but you can find out more info on forums and websites catering to these types of sports cars!
