A luxury car can overcome shortcomings by offering a high level of comfort, amenities, materials and performance, but the Q5 is on the higher side of the price equation for what you get.

That's only a $ 5,000 increase over the previous entry - level Model S 60, which is how much Tesla usually charges just for adding AWD to a Model S. Given that the new car also has improved performance, a longer driving range, and extra standard features, the 70D's price tag is actually a bargain.

It has the power, speed, grip, and the looks that make it an impressive sports cars, and with a starting price of $ 63,435, it costs one - fifth of what supercars offering comparable levels of performance cost — a stupendous bargain.

The S1 doesn't have any direct rivals because it combines big hot hatch performance (and price) with a small hot hatch footprint, but it's a very easy car to recommend nonetheless.

The car missed its performance, weight, price, and, ultimately, sales targets.

The Porsche 911 Turbo is the performance car the GT - R set out to beat, and the Nissan certainly wins on price, besting the $ 152,095 starting price of the 911 Turbo (it only goes up from there, and rapidly).

For all of its exclusivity and extra performance, the 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution Final Edition carries a surprisingly low price of $ 38,805 — that's less than you'll pay for a standard Lancer Evolution MR.. This means that there will surely be plenty of buyers clamoring to get their hands on these 1,600 special cars, though Mitsubishi has not yet announced a pre-order or reservation process.

If you don't need the Insignia's pace then tougher rivals at a closer price point are the # 30,640, 296bhp Audi S3 and the # 30,570, 316bhp BMW M135i, the latter being one of the best all - round performance cars on sale.

As you might imagine the Bugatti Chiron Sport doesn't come cheap and the price tag for the car stands at 2.65 m Euro or # 2.36 m. For that you get the usual Bugatti Chiron performance figures - 0 - 62mph in under 2.5 s, 0 - 124mph in under 6.5 s and a 261mph limited top speed.

If the only practical way to use this car is to dress up like you were going to ride a motorcycle, why wouldn't you just get a modern sports - bike for the same performance and (lack of) weather - protection, comfort and practicality at about an 8th of the price?

The Maloo's 3,794 - pound curb weight is an obvious anchor to the powerful engine; the optional six - speed automatic transmission shifts cleanly but feels outdated; and the starting price of about $ 56,000 (more than $ 80,000 Australian) means it would notionally compete with seriously desirable performance cars including the BMW M2, the Cadillac ATS - V, and the Ford Shelby GT350.

Its list price of 137,504 euros in Germany (no UK price has been announced yet, but that equates to around # 110K) puts it ahead of far more accomplished cars like the Porsche Cayenne Turbo but the appeal of the G - Class is that it's not a conventional SUV; Mercedes calls it a «performance off - roader», and says it's better viewed as an extremely posh Land Rover Defender rival.

But with gasoline prices eclipsing $ 4 a gallon in much of the country, Peterson says the Explorer Sport's estimated 16/22 mpg (17.6 - 12.8 L / 100 km) city / highway rating provides car buyers with both performance and fuel efficiency.

I gave 4 stars for performance and interior (i really think the interior display options could have been better at this price point) but other than that this car is a home run.

You'd need to be sold on the Citroen's styling and image to choose it over more driver - orientated choices from Mini and Ford, given its pricing - # 18,880 is a fair chunk more than you'd pay for a Fiesta ST (# 17,250) or even a MINI Cooper S (# 18,655), both cars that offer more if driving and performance take precedence over style.

The new car only burnishes that rep, although the C7 - generation Corvettes have been taken up a couple of notches in presentation and performance, with only slightly higher prices.

A non-S Lotus Evora is the only car that can match the Cayman R for performance, steering and handling feel for the price.

We've included the Swift Sport in our list of small cars, given its likely price and performance figures, but while it won't match the cars above for punch, it has a real chance of leaving a few with bloody noses in terms of good old - fashioned fun — the new Swift is small, far lighter than most superminis, and Suzuki knows how to tune a good chassis.

Obviously, there is only a single authentic CERV 1 in existence so valuation is difficult, but the price paid seems entirely reasonable for a car that is not only stunning to look at (and no doubt, drive) in its own right, but also contributed so much to the development of early Corvettes and GM performance in general.

Porsche's GT cars have always looked surprisingly good value against competitors with a similar performance and focus, but with the GT2 RS that pricing strategy has evolved into something much more inline with its exotic rivals.

We'll also be comparing the Evora with the Nissan GT - R (see page 70)-- which is also a four - seat performance car and very close on price to the # 58,460 launch - spec Evora — and to an Elise to find out just how different the Evora is.

With an initial sale price of right under $ 1,000,000, the Porsche 918 is currently a car «of the moment,» with it remaining squarely on the bleeding edge of performance and technology.

But it reminds us that it's harder to build a great small car than a great big car, because performance, refinement and style still matter even when the package is small and the price is cheap.

Most supermini hot hatches in this price bracket and with this level of performance and dynamic ability were pretty tiring motorway companions, but this car is refined and comfortable over long journeys.

Those prices are entirely reasonable for the class; for reference, a 99bhp Ford Fiesta 1.0 EcoBoost in Zetec trim cost # 15,445 and delivers similar performance to the car tested here.

And getting carried away with the options is pretty easy — our test car topped # 140,000, its spec highlights including Airscarf neck heating (# 575), Magic Sky Control sunroof with light and dark transparency settings (# 2610), the AMG Performance Package (which includes a 27bhp upgrade, carbonfibre boot spoiler and limited - slip differential — # 12,530), and perhaps the most unrealistically priced of all, keyless go (# 160And getting carried away with the options is pretty easy — our test car topped # 140,000, its spec highlights including Airscarf neck heating (# 575), Magic Sky Control sunroof with light and dark transparency settings (# 2610), the AMG Performance Package (which includes a 27bhp upgrade, carbonfibre boot spoiler and limited - slip differential — # 12,530), and perhaps the most unrealistically priced of all, keyless go (# 160and dark transparency settings (# 2610), the AMG Performance Package (which includes a 27bhp upgrade, carbonfibre boot spoiler and limited - slip differential — # 12,530), and perhaps the most unrealistically priced of all, keyless go (# 160and limited - slip differential — # 12,530), and perhaps the most unrealistically priced of all, keyless go (# 160and perhaps the most unrealistically priced of all, keyless go (# 1605).
