Top 8 Exotic Sports Cars
1 . Ferrari 488GTB
For those hoping to be the next Magnum, P.I., the
488GTB is exactly what you need. With its twin-turbo 3.9-liter V-8 located
behind you, you’ll enjoy every bit of its sonorous wail on up to 8000 rpm where
it makes 661 hp; a dual-clutch seven-speed is the sole transmission. We
estimate its 0–60 time at 3.0 seconds; top speed should be around 205 mph. A
new version of Ferrari’s stability control provides sharper handling without
sacrificing ride. Look for the 488GTB to arrive in September 2015.

2 . Ferrari 458
As instruments of pure speed, few cars can touch the
458 Italia and its convertible counterpart, the 458 Spider. Powered by a 562-hp
V-8 mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission and riding on an
F1-inspired suspension, the mid-engined 458 is as pure a sports car as anything
on the road. It looks the part, too, with X-Acto knife styling and an intense,
if overwrought, interior. Need to turn up the exclusivity? You’ll want the 458
Speciale or the 458 Speciale A, with 597 hp.
Price: $243,090 - $295,494
3 . McLaren 650S
The 650S may look like a face-lifted 12C, but there’s
a lot more to it: The revised styling pays tribute to the P1 hybrid, the body
tub is lighter, and about 25 percent of the parts are new. The heart of the car
(and the name) is the 650-PS (641-hp) 3.8-liter twin-turbo V-8. Mated to a
seven-speed dual-clutch automatic, the 650S can hit 60 mph in less than 3
seconds. There’s also a Spider version. For more power, there’s the 675LT,
which makes 666 hp and hits 60 mph in a claimed 2.9 seconds.
Price: $267,900 - $282,625
4 . Lamborghini Huracan
Lamborghini’s new “entry-level” supercar, the Huracán,
picks up where the exotic Gallardo left off. Its angular design manages to be
both severe and elegant, and its stealth fighter–like cockpit is as luxurious
as it is intense. Nestled behind the passengers is a 602-hp V-10 mated to a
seven-speed dual-clutch automated gearbox (sorry, no manual transmission is
offered) and all-wheel drive, helping Lambo’s new bull accelerate from 0–60 mph
in just under three seconds, and a top speed of 202 mph.
Price: $240,745
5 . Ferrari F12 berlinetta
Ferrari hasn’t compromised one bit with its grand
touring coupe, the F12berlinetta. Power comes from a front-mounted 6.3-liter
V-12, mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and rear-wheel
drive. Even with 730 horsepower, the F12berlinetta is designed to be one of
Ferrari’s more comfortable cars, making it surprisingly manageable on a
day-to-day basis. Sure, it costs more than a house, but the metal-melting aria
from that incredibly operatic engine? Priceless.
Price: $323,745
6 . Porsche 911 GT3 / GT3 RS
While 911s are the stuff of legends, the GT3 is truly
a rolling deity. Its naturally aspirated 3.8-liter flat-six makes 475 hp and
spins to a sky-high 9000 rpm; the lightning-fast seven-speed PDK transmission
helps it hit 60 mph in three seconds flat. Handling is tenacious, the brakes
are stupendous, and the interior and exterior are modified to suit the track as
well as the boulevard. For the ultimate GT3, there’s the GT3 RS. It’s lighter,
lower, and its 4.0-liter flat-six cranks out 500 hp.
Price: $131,395
7 . Porsche 911 Turbo / Turbo S
For decades, the 911 Turbo has been the stuff of
legends, and it remains so in its most recent iteration. With a monstrous 520
hp on tap—make that 560 hp in the case of the Turbo S—and a seven-speed
dual-clutch automatic doing the shifting, Porsche’s all-wheel-drive supercar
can hit 60 mph in less than three seconds. The exterior styling is as timelessly
gorgeous as ever, and its luxurious interior makes this precious road rocket a
genuine pleasure to drive on any road, at any time.
Price: $152,095 - $195,595
8 . Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG
The SLS AMG GT is an incredibly fast and rare supercar
that harkens back to the Gullwings of yore. It’s powered by a 6.2-liter V-8
that makes 583 hp, mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission
and rear-wheel drive. Got cash to burn? Opt for the Black Series with 622 hp
and other go-fast goodies. No matter your choice, the SLS remains a Mercedes,
replete with a luxurious, well-appointed interior. The insanity concludes soon
with the 2015 SLS AMG GT Final Edition. Get yours now!
Price: $222,505 - $229,005
