Those cars' functions are verbs, like prius: Save (environment/gas/etc) Excursion: Carry bug: Enable/revolutionize
but minivan: minivan huh. <A BORDER="0" HREF="http://www.supercars.net/PitLane?displayFAQ=y"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="pitlane/emoticons/tongue.gif"></A>
well..yeah of course.. I was more thinking of modern supercars..but the F40 and Countach (if you don't call that a hypercar) are of course supercars
mid engined 8 cylinders or over 160 mph + top speed same price as a decent house expensive to run/insure/service makes people do a double take when you drive past them
Extreme in price, performance, desirability, exclusivity, construction and materials. Loved and sometimes even hated. Sometimes are a manufacturing profit loss but are made anyway to make a statement.
The exception that proves the rule. If you read the first post again, you will see CitroenSM asks what in *your mind* is the definition of/defines a supercar? this is what defines a supercar, in my mind.
This is the definition of a supercars from manufactures standpoint. "There are three requirements for a supercar,". it must weigh four kilograms [8.8 pounds] or less per horsepower-our ratio is 3.6 kilograms. Two, it must have 300-kph [186-mph] capability on public roads. And, three, it must be able to circle the Nrburgring Nordschleife in less than eight minutes." enjoy.
As long as a car follow the same basic design concept as this car, it would be a proper supercar. A proper supercar doesn't have to be ultra light and devoid of luxury like this car, and doesn't have to sound as good as this car; but a proper supercar does need to have 3 essential ingredients this car has in abundance: exceptionally high power to weight ratio, outstanding handling, and above all else exotic and timeless looks.
F40: the ultimate supercar If "supercar" were in the dictionary, there would be a picture of the F40 next to it.
As per my opinion, a super car is something that resembles to a luxurious car like Mercedes and equipped with a flying gear. Actually, here in mumbai traffic is a major issue, so i think that a flying gear would a perfect solution.
