It would have to have a 0-60 in about 3.5, not just under 4. it would have to be over 100,000 just to be out of price range of the people who actually want it it be preferably mid-engined but doesn't have to be. Has to be very exclusive, not more than 500 or so built. also, Not nessesarily superb handling but just enough to handle it's power and a little more. It also must be tempermental and high-maintainence. It has to have a cool name like Zonda or Fulgura. And lastly, it has to have an interior that makes you feel like you're Batman.

Supercars are cars that, in one way or many, represent an exageration of the possibilities and characteristics of common cars. For example, my 4 banger 1.0 gets me 35-40mpg, which is normal.However, I'd call it a supercar if it got me 70mpg and had the same performance simply because that is, considering today's automotive standards, way above the normal. I'd also consider it a supercar if it's engine produced 200hp straight out of the factory and still got 35mpg, not because 200hp is a monstruosity, but because it certainly would be unheard of in today's scenario.
Supercars are all about exageration.
Exotics are cars that, IMO, must be very rare, valuable, desirable and hold at least some historical importance.
Too help you put things in perspective:
supercars - porsche 911 GT2, ferrari 360 modena...
exotics - porsche gt1, ferrari f40...
Would it be possible, to play forever?
The conclusion reached was that a player is inevitably doomed to lose.
By the way, a tuned Supra with 800hp would be a supercar, because 800hp is way above the normal and average of the cars made today, but it wouldn't be an exotic because it would fail the desirability and historical value items.

if it has too much power
handles too good
weighs too little
stops too good

My definition would be that they set a new level for speed, power, acceleration, handling, and braking. They are road registerable versions of racing cars.

For me a super car must be car who can beat 0-100km/h in 5.0 sec without any mods. It must be STOCK.Originally Posted by HBoss

Mercedes SLK 230 (sold)
Jaguar XK8 (sold)
Porsche 996 Carrera 4 (for sale)
2004 Mini Cooper
Mercedes 2005 SLK 55 AMG (ordered)
I found the following definition in the internet:
to qualify as a super car have all of the bellow:
1. the visibility of the rearview window is the size of the hole in the dounut.
2. your car has a spoiler or a diffuser.
3. you can barely say the cars name.
4. it can go to at least 200 mph
5. you can't speak to your passenger over the engine noise.
6. your car is at least takes up 90% of the lane.
7. your insurance is more than your house bills.
8. teenagers gaw at the site of the car.
9. you would never give the keys of the car to the valet person.
10. your car does not have a 10 year/100,000 mile warrinty (if it has one)
My definition:
You CAN NOT define a supercar by engine location and number of doors/seats/cylinders/seconds for 0-60.
Seems to me a lot of people have different opinions on the definition of a supercar.
Steve Saleen's definition of a supercar doesn't apply to everything.
For me, Bugatti Royale is a Supercar.

i think that the definition of a supercar varys by the time period. like the Shelby Cobra was a supercar back when it was out, but is now a "classic"Originally Posted by lfb666

A car that can go 0-60mph in under 4.5 seconds. I don't think you can just call any powerful exotic car a supercar. It all just depends on your point of view.
For example, to me a Porsche 911 GT2 is a supercar, while an Aston Martin DB7 is not.

Even some older cars like the Porsche 959 and Ferrari 288 GTO would be considered supercars in todays' world. Doesn't matter if they are older, they can still kick ass.

I would say a supercar is a car that is rare and has performance well in excess of your average car. Something like the car below.http://www.ascari.net
it must be over 600hp and must have corbon-fiber or aluminium bodywork like ascari a 10 and must be produced limited numbers must have unique specs ( like 4 turbo ) (like laraki fulgura or veyron)
