great car my dad has a 2018 its alot of fun to drive but im 6'2 and it sucks for more then 45minutes at go. if my hand is on the top of the wheel and i stick my fingers forward i hit the windshield its like im wearing the glass
Best value? No. Looking at the range in prices from used gens to new, there are many other higher power to weight cars that are still relatively light weight good handling cars.
@eag8999 its more fun to drive slow car fast than fast car slow. You can drive hard with miata and still have fun within speedlimit. You are only on 2nd gear with high hp cars. I own 550hp m3 and 230hp s2000. S2000 is way more fun to drive than m3.
Best affordable sports car is whatever your budget allows. No more than 50% of your annual take home. Many fun cars under that. I currently have an 02 RSX type s. Common parts from other Hondas, reliable and a blast to drive
I had an 02 Rsx type s also most fun I’ve had in a car yet. The next one I want ( my dream car s2000 ) I’ll never get to own the really fast cars as my budget won’t allow for that. So I enjoy what I can within my range

Driving with no sleep, on a road he's never driven, chasing a car, and steering w/ 1 hand while he holds his passenger in the car. Don't know this guy but I'd say he and his passengers were lucky he didn't run out of talent. Oh, and get off my lawn.
He literally said nothing even close to justify the video title. What's the point? Just make the title "nico from grand theft auto talks about cars he likes"
@@DaleEarndhardt the world where 3400.00lbs is the absolute maximum for a sports car. The line has to be drawn somewhere, and it for damn sure isn't 3650lbs nor 4k lbs lol. The C8 is basically in the same class as one of the faster camaros. And no manual option? Lol not a sports car. The Z06 is a lower end (price and build wise) supercar. Some supercars can also be a sports car but the z is not one of em.
Well if he wants the Carrera GT hope he likes owing a super expensive lawn ornament after Porsche had informed all owners of the GT to stop driving them immediately. Some issue with the suspension parts failing. Porsche doesn't even have many of the parts on hand yet to even fix it. Could be months before owners get them.
NEW1 4U to test you&your car's abilities. 2-3hrs West of TALE of the DRAGON. between Wartburg and Clarkrange, Hwy 62, the SPEED-LIMIT is 55mph. I take the SpdLmt as a "CHALLENGE" SERIOUSLY, it is impossible! Morgan County side has 3-5 SwitchBack-Sections just like "theDRAGON", then STRAIGHT AWAYS soon as you're in Fentress County. Five-OH ain't bad at all.
nyc to totd in 9 hours is average of 85mph but he was probably cruising faster than that. going 90mph anywhere is virginia would get u thrown in jail for a million billion years...
Interesting story for sure, but definitely not an appropriate title. It completely misrepresents the content and is an example of why I no longer subscribe to this channel.
I'm not hearing anything about what car I should buy; I'm just hearing this guy's story.
Vinwiki is dead
Unsubscribing
He’s talking about a white m3 and they keep showing a black one
None of them are affordable!
They didn‘t bother, because everybody knows, Miata is always the answer.
Just got a g37 convertible for 280 a month. Love it. It's not what most would aspire to but I'm really happy and it's super affordable
The answer is always Corvette
"over my dead body" would have been my response as well.
I love corvettes but man, with the depreciation on German sports cars idk. How many can snag up 500whp for under 20k ?

@chuch541 I loved driving German, but the constant anxiety of imminent system failure is too much
@@chuch541
You only find cash Vettes for under 20k most are 2011 and older. 2012-2019 go for 30k and up. 2020-2024 go for like 70k and up
He should have got a gen1 Viper, no ABS, no windows, and no traction control. That's the real Widowmaker
Having windows is kind of nice though 😂
Mazda MX5/Miata is always the best value in a sports car.

6’4” and can’t even drive if the top is up, and not enough room to be safe between steering wheel and my knees ☹️

"Affordable" is a broad word.
It's definitely a relative term
If you have a billion a 425k Lamborghini is a smaller percentage of savings than a guy spending $4.25 on a bus pass with 100k saved

Hate to admit, if you can get one for MSRP, the 2024 C8 is probably the most car for your $.
And if you can't afford that the most horsepower for your money would be a mustang gt?
I’m fed up with Ed bringing these boring stories bring back the old days

I have driven the Dragon many times before and since that trip. I know the road very well.
What is your pick for the best affordable sports car?
The Toyota MRS has to be the best
The 2024 Nissan Z
Miata...
C8 corvette if we pretend mark ups don’t exist
07 civic SI
My 97 Viper GTS is a lot more raw than the gen 3. The 3rd generation they really started to refine them.
M3 gets my vote here as well
With the way you accumulate Manual LP-640s I’m calling BS with love Ed!
Agreed on v8 m3. Have tried a bunch of stuff… keep coming back to dct e92 m3
I like this simple story about having good wholesome fun.
I found 97 viper GTS coupes with a salvage title for 30k.

looool
This story was all over the place and just seemed to end randomly.
I got what I could afford and made it better.
1st time I've heard Viper is not hard to drive safely. I guess to these folks, it's more an old grocery getter....
Should've bought a Z06...
This guy is gold awesome video guys thank you
997 turbo. I have a 1000hp one and daily it in summer.
talk about click bait smh

Four hours into the video, and I think I might have figured out what "Tail of the Dragon" is.. maybe.
The one you can afford :)
Sad that vipers get such a bad reputation for being hard to drive, when in reality the problem is the person behind the wheel.
So wheres the answer to the question of best sports car to buy in 2024?!?!?!??
If we are strictly talking new cars, the c8 corvette is the best bang for your buck. Second best would be the g80 m3.
Neither are sports cars
