Lotus Evora
Even though it’s equipped with a Toyota Camry engine, the Lotus Evora is crown jewel of British performance, offering thrills that very few vehicles can, no matter how high you climb up the price ladder. The base version starts at $79,000, but the S trim is the best pick. Armed with a supercharger, it delivers 345 horses. And since the vehicle weighs just 1,386 kilograms, that’s enough to shoot it up to 100 km/h in 4.6 seconds.
