The 7 Best Cheapest Sports Cars in Terms of Value for Money

We present to you the 7 best sports cars with the best price, which you can purchase on the 2018 market, also highlighting their value for money as well as their performance.

Sports cars are one of the most sought-after segments within motoring. The dream of many enthusiasts, or of people who want a powerful car that won’t let them down in a multitude of situations, are more than enough reasons to spend a bit more money.

Below, we present the 7 cheapest sports cars of 2018 in terms of value for money:

Subaru BRZ

For a price from €29,500 you can get the Subaru BRZ, which is the main rival of the Toyota GT86. Both models are very similar and differ mainly in their design and tuning. It features an engine producing 200 CV at 7,000 rpm as well as 205 Nm of torque between 6,400 and 6,600 rpm. Without a doubt a great option for speed purists on a tight budget, and it also boasts an attractive design.

Toyota GT86

Very similar to the previous model, we find the Toyota GT86 with a starting price of €33,000. It is also perhaps the model that most resembles the MX-5 in both performance and chassis configuration. It features a turbocharged engine producing 200 CV.

Nissan 370 Z

Without a doubt the Nissan 370Z§h42† is the best car on the list in terms of value for money. Its price barely exceeds that of the GT86 by €1,430; we are talking about a total from €34,330. This is the sports car of the entire top with the best sound and the best performance preparation in every respect. Its manual gearbox is mandatory. This beast generates 328 CV through a 3.7-litre V6 engine at this surprising price. Its maximum revs reach 7,500 rpm, full of fury, with a sound that will make you vibrate and steal smiles from you at every bend thanks to its agility and power. Without a doubt, in my view, if you are willing to reach this price range, this is the best option, one that will certainly not leave you indifferent.

The new Mazda MX-5 is not only the best option alongside the Nissan 370 Z, but it can also boast the most beautiful design of the top, in addition to being a convertible. At a price starting from €25,700 for its 130 CV Origin version, we recommend the €28,000 Evolution version with 161 CV. And don’t be surprised by its small number of horsepower compared with other cars in the top, since you are not only buying a potentially more elegant, beautiful and convertible car, but it is also extremely light, which makes power delivery even easier. It has one of the best manual gearboxes on the market, so this option is a must-have. Likewise, if at some point you want to add some horsepower for €4,000 more, you can always raise the power to 250 CV with tuners such as BBR. Don’t forget that it is a legendary Japanese car in terms of customisation and tuning options, so you can experiment with this beautiful car as much as you like.

Opel Corsa OPC

Thanks to discounts, this small sports car from the German brand can reduce its initial price from €25,000 to €20,000. The Opel Corsa OPC has a 1.6-litre turbo engine generating 207 CV and going from 0 to 100 km/h in 6.8 seconds. It is without doubt one of the gems you can find on the market in this horsepower range. It also has more usable space than many cars in this segment, which makes it more versatile for more situations. An option that certainly does not go unnoticed.

Renault Mégane RS

The most expensive option in the top, but not for that reason disposable, is the Renault Mégane RS with a starting price without discounts of €36,470. It has an engine generating 280 CV, 205 kW, accompanied by a sporty chassis that delivers excellent sensations behind the wheel. It is also another of the sports cars on the list with more usable space, which adds versatility. It has an extraordinary cornering ability.

Ford Fiesta ST-Line

We finish the top with the most economical option. The Ford Fiesta ST-Line, after discounts, is available for a total of €14,050, down from its initial price of €19,500. We are talking about this new model of Ford which features 140 CV in its 6-speed Ecoboost 1.0 version, which is precisely the one we recommend. It is a great option if your budget is a bit tighter. It won’t give you the sportiness offered by other cars in the top, but it will be a good middle ground for getting into the scene with a reliable, quality brand such as Ford.
