Most people that love supercars can\u2019t afford to buy them. To change this, many manufacturers have given their almost luxury car models elements including bespoke suspension, composite materials, limited production numbers etc. Anything to draw-in the supercar buyers that don\u2019t have an unlimited budget. On the other hand, you can buy a once-highly-expensive supercar used to get a better deal and a much lower price. Whether new or used, here are the top 10 supercars you can buy for under $50,000.

Lotus Exige S1<\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re all about the looks then you may just like the Lotus Exige S1<\/a>. If you\u2019re after a supercar outside and don\u2019t mind not having a supercar inside then the Exige may just be the car for you. To less discerning eyes it could be mistaken for a vehicle worth $250,000. It\u2019s not though. Back in 2000 when it hit the market it was only $45,000.<\/p>\n

Aston Martin V8 Vantage<\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re looking for value for money then you can\u2019t go past the Aston Martin V8 Vantage<\/a>. In fact, any Aston Martin made over the last 10 years is great value for money and should set you back around $50,000 or under. A 2008 Aston Martin Vantage V8 Sportshift used will set you back around $49,000.

Ferrari 308 GTSi<\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re looking for prestige and power then you\u2019ll want a Ferrari. Of course, if you\u2019re looking at Ferrari\u2019s for under $50,000 you\u2019ll have to buy it used<\/a>. The Ferrari 308 GTS, as the first V8 powered road car Ferrari ever made, might be the car for you. It\u2019s also considered one of the most beautiful cars ever made by many in the know. The 308 was the start of all the mid-engined V8\u2019s by Ferrari, so if you\u2019re after a talking or statement piece. This is the one. A Ferrari 308 GTSi<\/a> used will go for under $30,000.

Porsche 911 Turbo<\/h2>\n

As the stepping stone to the supercars, if you\u2019re looking for a good time call Porsche 911. It\u2019s your entry point to the supercar world. Since 1975 Porsche has been making 911 Turbos<\/a> so there\u2019s a lot out there at almost any price point. An older 911 Turbo shows that you\u2019re a supercar enthusiast and not just a cheap supercar owner. If you\u2019re patient and do your research you can find a classic Porsche 911 Turbo for under $50,000 with the latest year being about the 2005 variants.

Honda Acura NSX<\/h2>\n

The first Acura NSX<\/a> boasted a 3.0 litre V6 and 270 horsepower. It also had an 8000-rpm redline. To put that into perspective almost 18 years later and BMW\u2019s 3.0 liter makes 268 horsepower. From the 1991 model right through to the 2005 model the NSX went anywhere from $60,600 to $89,765, though it barely changed throughout the years, it just became more popular. You can get a used 1997 to 2005 model for around $50,000 or choose to buy a little cheaper with an older 1991 to 1994 model and pay between $25,000 and $35,000.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
