A fast, beautiful sports car is the subject of admiration for the girls and the envy of other motorists. But to buy an inexpensive sports car is a pipe dream for Russians not burdened with millions of rubles. However, we are ready to help in this matter and present you a list inexpensive used sports cars, the price of which does not exceed 600 thousand rubles.
To compile the rating, the most popular car sales services were studied, such as auto.ru, cars.ru and auto.drom.ru.
10. Subaru Impreza WRX STI
The price of a used car is 550,000 rubles.
This "dream car" with all-wheel drive can be purchased for half a million rubles (if you bargain a little). Of course, the 2006 version looks a bit old, but it has the most beautiful body.
For speed enthusiasts, the WRX STI is the most suitable option, given the impressive size of the hood's air intake, a powerful 2.0 liter engine (160 hp) and a bright history of victories (if you are told about something by the names of Colin Mack Ray, Richard Burns and Petter Solberg ) Throughout its history, STI models have participated in various races, ranging from world-class competitions to local competitions. To "weave" the car accelerates in 6 seconds.
9. Mazda MX-5
The price of a used car is 600,000 rubles.
Another good budget sports car made in Japan. The car in an elegant convertible body is equipped with a four-cylinder engine, which, although inferior in power to competitors, will give them a form for acceleration. To “hundred” km per hour, the Mazda MX-5 accelerates in 7.6 seconds.
On sale there are options with both a mechanical (5 and 6-speed), and with an automatic transmission. But we advise the first option, because only with it you can fully feel the oneness with the machine.
8. BMW M3 II (E36)
The price of a used car is 550,000 rubles.
This sports car does not look as impressive as the previous member of our collection. And I can’t even believe that up to 100 km per hour, the BMW M3 II accelerates in just 5.5 seconds. Powerful 3 liter engine or 3.2 l (321 hp) makes this car a real monster of roads, and its roar will terrify peaceful inhabitants, so it is better not to drive at night in sleeping areas.
7. Ford Mustang
The price of a used car is 450,000 rubles.
Sit in a Ford Mustang and proudly leave for sunset - what could be better? Such a car produced in 2001 (IV restyling) can be purchased for a relatively small price. In the kit you will receive a six-cylinder 3.8-liter engine (190 hp), an automatic transmission (although there are options on the mechanics) and a very comfortable interior.
In cornering at high speeds, the Ford Mustang is sensitive to the dynamic change in weight distribution, and acceleration to 100 km per hour occurs in just 5.5 seconds.
6. Scion tC
The price of a used car is 530,000 rubles.
This sports car (also known as Toyota Zelas) was produced in Japan and was intended for the American market.
The highlight of the Scion tC is the panoramic roof, most of which can be pushed back. In winter, of course, a useless “trick”, but in hot summers and early autumn it is very necessary.
Up to 100 km per hour, the car accelerates from 6.3 to 7.5 seconds, depending on the engine. Scion tC is equipped with either a 2.4- or 2.5-liter engine (160 hp and 180 hp respectively). The engine can not be called very resourceful, but it is quite high-torque, which is useful in urban conditions, when you have to drive at low speeds.
5. Mercedes-Benz SL-Class
The price of a used car is 499,000 rubles.
Lightweight and powerful sports car from a well-known German manufacturer. Under its hood is a five-liter engine with a capacity of 306 hp. To “hundreds”, it accelerates in 6.5 seconds.
In appearance, few competitors can compete with this luxury car. For less than 500 thousand rubles you can buy a car manufactured in 2002, with an active suspension and a self-cleaning roof. All this stuff looks slightly shabby, but still stylish, if you don’t look very closely.
4. Nissan 350Z
The price of a used car is 590,000 rubles.
This handsome man with excellent weight distribution, and therefore handling, is ready to accelerate to hundreds of kilometers per hour in 5.8 seconds. It is equipped with a 3.5 liter engine, for 280 "horses".
A car manufactured in 2005 and with a gearbox can be found for 590 thousand rubles, and even cheaper if you look carefully. With manual transmission is also there, but these cars are, oddly enough, more expensive.
3. TagAZ Aquila
The price of a used car is 500,000 rubles.
The three most affordable sports cars with mileage in Russia are opened by a car that was produced by TagAZ from 2013 to 2014. The word Aquila is translated from Latin as "eagle" and this car really resembles a proud and fast bird, ready at any moment to break loose.
The basic version is equipped with a 107-horsepower 1.6-liter engine manufactured under license from Mitsubishi and has everything you need for a comfortable trip: from air conditioning and power steering to power windows, electrically adjustable heated mirrors and ABS.
2. LADA Granta Sport
The price of a used car is 400,000 rubles.
On the basis of the serial LADA Granta, AvtoVAZ created a racing car with a 1.6 liter engine with a capacity of 106 to 114 hp. Lowered suspension, aggressive-looking bumpers, alloy wheels and neat spoilers immediately give out the sporty character of the car. Up to 100 km per hour, this model accelerates in 9.5 seconds.
The engine has very good dynamics, despite the small volume. And if until now you were sure that the products of the domestic auto industry, to put it mildly, are not very good, then take a ride on the LADA Granta Sport. Perhaps your opinion will change dramatically.
This is the best-priced option in the ranking of the most inexpensive sports cars in Russia. For 514 thousand rubles you can buy a completely new car - a rarity these days, when salaries are reduced, and the price tags for vehicles are rising.
1. Audi TT
The price of a used car is 550,000 rubles.
This compact sports car in a coupe is immediately recognizable thanks to the hexagonal radiator grille and stylish “squinted” optics with LED modules. And the sound of his engine will bring pleasure to anyone who knows a lot about speed.
The front-wheel drive TT with a robotic gearbox accelerates to “hundreds” in 5.9 seconds, a little slower - in 6 seconds - with a manual transmission and in 5.3 seconds in an all-wheel drive version. The Audi TT speedometer is marked up to 280 km per hour, but the speed is artificially limited by electronics, and you can accelerate only to 250 km per hour.
None of the models listed in our top 10 can be attributed to practical machines. For trips with friends and with mother-in-law to the country you will need a good compact crossover with a large trunk. But for maximum pleasure from driving and adrenaline rushing during acceleration along the highway it is better than a sports car to find no option.
