Supercars.
What are they? are they works of art, racing cars adapted to the road, a symbol of power and masculinty, a fetish, a product designed to make profit, a toy, a device of high speed travel. A collecters item.
All of these things may be true. No doubt one of these statements you will agree with more than others.
What defines a supercar?
Super (better, greater). the said car must be considerably faster and more powerful than the average cars of its day. It must be exclusive and not easily obtainable otherwise it loses its status and merely becomes one of the average. The car is special, gifted, at traveling at high speed, it should look good and sound good. The car should have either outstanding features or a pedigree which gives the car prestige and Value. The car should give its owner pleasure in as many ways possible. Then if done right and if all the aspects of the car are just so, then it becomes more than other cars and more than the sum of its parts, it becomes almost a living thing with a character and a soul.
A Supercar.
