Brands like Ferrari, Lamborghini and McLaren make headlines with their halo cars – like the LaFerrari and P1 – but just beneath upper-echelon performance cars with multi-million dollar price tags and nearly 1,000 horsepower there exists a whole other world of more obtainable supercars. Still, we’re tlaking ultra-high-performance, so in this case, “obtainable” means under the $250,000 mark. For those who still want world-famous performance but don’t have an oil trust to bankroll a car collection, these are some of the best entry-level supercars available today.
