I heard it defined some years ago as: zero to 100mph to zero in under 10 seconds.
so you wouldn't count an audi R8 as a supercar? (not supposed to be sarcastic, genuine question).
I would think that a MacMerc SLR would be a supercar, but then some might say it's british
So my motorbike is a supercar?I heard it defined some years ago as: zero to 100mph to zero in under 10 seconds.
Is a Maybach a "supercar"? You tell me.
Its an individuals definition only.
Somebody may very well call a Morris Marina a supercar. But they would have to live in a slum in Albania and earn less than 10p a day.
Would they be wrong?
Then again my definitive supercar is a Ferrari 246 Dino circa 1970.
If a supercar by definition a car you cant afford then Jeremy Clarkson etc....etc.....cannot think of any car as such.
Its a subject that has been pondered often and I have never heard a description that completely defines the term. And probably never will.
So my motorbike is a supercar?

I equate the centrestand with a car's handbrake, so yes it can.Only if it can stand on its own at 0km/h.

manalishi said:Surely any supercar must also cost a fortune to maintain. Which is why the NSX isn't allowed in the supercar club.
Supercar = v. competitive in Top Trumps
Hypercar = the ones you always want in your hand in Top Trumps in order to win
So as per the example above, an NSX misses out on such things as too few cylinders, too cheap, lower top speed etc.
Super car.. defined... hmmm.. tough one.. and more so when you bring hyper cars into the equation.
Super car - An every day car at the far limit
Hyper car - A car beyond the limits that can not be used on your Sainsbury's rounds...
