Top 10 Cheapest New Supercars


Yes, it is possible to drive a supercar with $100K or less now. As I have said before, you do not have to be a millionaire to be able to afford a fast and luxury car. Everyone loves to own a supercar, some for the driving experience and some to feel superior to their neighbours who own a Toyota Camry with an aftermarket exhaust. Even if you do not have $100K or less, it is not a problem now. A lot of financing institutions are ready to make your dream come true. There are two well-known types of car finance: Car Financing and Car Leasing. Last week, I wrote about car finance as well as all the things you need to consider when buying a new supercar. Read about it here.

Let's take a look at the new supercars available on the market for less than $100K:

The car will accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 5.1s if you go with the six-speed manual transmission and it will do so in 4.7s if you choose seven-speed dual-clutch automatic PDK with manual shifting mode. The Porsche 718 Cayman will reach a top speed of 275 km/h which is very impressive for its price range. 

The fuel consumption of the Porsche 718 Cayman is as impressive as its price. The car has a combined fuel consumption of about 7.4L per 100 km for the manual and around 6.9L per 100 km for the PDK.
