Top 5 All-American Supercars - 2013 Cars News

Exotic supercars aren't strictly the realm of imports. Automakers big and small based right here in the United States have created some of the most devastating performance machines ever to roam the Great American Road. The top tier of exotic supercars typically come from Europe, with Italy, Germany and the UK accounting for the lion�s share. Japan, as we recently featured, also occasionally dabbles in the exotica. But America isn�t without its own examples, either. Typically focused on muscle cars and hot-rod pickup trucks, each of the Big 3 has produced performance sportscars that can hand their import rivals their hats. And there have been a few independent exotic automakers popping up in these United States as well. Here are five of our favorites. more at CarBuzz: Cars That Won't Die: Volkswagen SantanaBentley Flying Spur Pops Up EarlyRed Bull Takes 900HP Race Truck to the Slopes First on any list of American supercars has to be the Chevrolet Corvette, a model that has long since jumped from sportscar into veritable supercar territory. The outgoing ZR1 ensured that much with its 638-horsepower, 6.2-liter supercharged V8, its 3.4-second 0-60 time...and its $100+k price tag. Now there�s a new Corvette upon us. It�s called the Stingray, and in base form, it packs a new LT1 V8 with 450 horsepower (more than the outgoing base Vette but significantly less than the ZR1) that�s said to give it a 0-60 time of less than four seconds. Just imagine what the next ZR1 will do.
