Top Cars From Around The World

The world has seen so many classic, iconic performance cars over the years that it is difficult to pick out the best of the bunch. We take a stab at it here, offering a list of some of the best cars from the best car manufacturing countries in the world. They cost a fortune in every sense, from petrol to maintenance, upgrades to performance car insurance, but they are beauties nonetheless.

Nissan Skyline GT-R (Japan)

The Skyline is probably the most famous car ever to have come out of Japan, at least in the way of performance vehicles. It has made many appearances in popular culture over the years, with famous showings in The Fast and the Furious film series and the Gran Turismo video game series.

Porsche 911 GT3 (Germany)

The GT3 is one of those cars that turn heads wherever they go. Its sleek, elegant yet impactful design wowed car fanatics when it was released in 1999 and is still wowing us to this day. Porsche manages to hit the nail on the head with every car it produces.

Ford Mustang GT (USA)

What can we say about the Mustang? It is truly one of the sexiest and downright coolest cars on the planet. It is still going strong today – currently in its fifth generation – as the ultimate all American muscle car. The Mustang, in its many forms, has also made many appearances in popular culture, with starring roles in the Bond classic Goldfinger in 1964 and Steve McQueen’s Bullitt in 1968.

Bentley Continental GT (UK)

Bentley just seems to nail it with every car it produces and the Continental GT is no exception. It was released in 2003 to replace the Continental R and T and held the World Speed Record on Ice until March this year, topping an astonishing 331 km/h. The Continental GT is a quintessentially British powerhouse of a car.

Ferrari 458 Italia (Italy)

The Italians are famous for a lot of things, but perhaps none more so than the fleet of Ferraris it produces every year. The 458 is up there with the best of them and it’s no wonder when you consider that it was developed with the Formula One technology that the firm has so masterfully engineered over the years.
