The Z made the list
Want your sub-$15,000 go-fast car to look like it just rolled out of the factory? Consider the Nissan 370Z. A 2009 is nearly indistinguishable from the current version — and that’s just fine with us.

Underhood you’ll find a 3.7-liter V6, the latest version of Nissan’s vaunted VQ family of engines. A 7-speed automatic transmission is common (and actually works quite well), but we’ll stick with the 6-speed stick in this smurf blue example. With just over 102,000 miles, it’s just getting broken in — and those are grippy track-ready tires we spy, too.

take it for what it is worth...

Quite entertaining list there surprised the Ford Mustang did not make that list lol. The Ford Taurus SHO is not only heavy but unreliable. Back in 2008 after talking with owners that purchased the 2008 Dodge Challenger first year I refused to get one seeing they were always breaking down and in the Dodge dealership service department/shop. The most reliable/dependable vehicles on that list would be the Nissan 370Z and Subaru Impreza WRX. I didn’t know my Z was that fast I must have got lucky.....

This is a list of scary fast cars... Ford Mustangs are only scary at low speeds in and around parking lots

"Scary fast" is generous.
