With production starting in 2009, the Ferrari 458 Italia is a 2-seater sports car boasting a V8 engine and 7 speed transmission. All 1,258 Ferrari 458 vehicles were recalled in September of 2010 to address a wheel arc fire threat. Cars that caught fire were replaced with new ones and all other ones were modified to eliminate the problem.
The Italian made 2-seater Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano made its initial appearance at the Geneva Motor Show in 2006. The sports car comes with either a 6 speed manual transmission or a super fast 6-speed sequential transmission called the F1 and can go from 0 to 60 in only 19 seconds.
Originally presented in 1999, the Italian made Pagani Zonda Tricolore continues to be manufactured at a limited edition rate of roughly 10 cars every year. Available as either a coupe or convertible, the car sells for around $700,000 and is one of the most expensive cars to insure, if you can find an insurance company to insure it.
The Noble M12 GTO-3R was built in South Africa in 2000. Originally designed by Lee Noble, a US company called 1G Racing has since bought the rights to produce the Noble M12 GTO-R3. To insure this 2-door coupe, plan on spending around $1,600 per year in the United States.
The Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 was introduced as a concept car at the Geneva Motor Show in 2006. It had a V12 engine that boasted only 8mpg in the city and 13mpg on the highway. With a selling price of over $300,000 and poor fuel economy, the Lamborghini Murceilago LP640 is not a sports car that can be afforded by everyone.
