I saw a list somewhere of the top 100 Supercars. I don't think there have been 100 cars that qualify by my criteria.
I read somewhere that the Carrera GT's performance can now be had in a 911 based car, think it was the GT2, could have been the GT3 or Turbo 911 though. And the 911 based cars are not supercars unless perhaps transformed by Ruf?

It's a moving target, but once crowned the title stays.
