We all know theres a very opaque line differentiating a "super car" and a "hyper car". For example, an Enzo is a hyper car; whereas a 458 Italia is a super car. However, BBC Top Gear just posted this on youtube, labeling the LP640 a hyper car. If the 640 is a hyper car, then why is its successor, the Aventador, a mere super car?
Really no hard-set line between the two. But a good reason why in this particular case is the TIME in which both are debuting. The competitor for the lambo now is just that much more intense.
hyper car = crazy hp, super expensive(beyond regular supercar expensive) but not really great handling etc
Supercar = high hp, quite expensive, but handles, brakes, takes corners, does everything amazing, possibly livable with every day
so Supercar = Corvette ZR-1 and Nissan GT-R Nismo?
In your definition, hypercars can only be Bugatti Veyron and Koenigsegg only because of their topspeed.
Let's face it, GT-R and Vette will smoke McLaren F1 and Ferrari Enzo around on the track.

supercar = any high end sports car
hypercar = a branch of supercars that are the flagship/halo products...they typically have a very limited production...think Enzo, Agera R, Zonda, CGT

just a buzzword used to move cars. no different from calling a smartphone a superphone.
I could go further and say that there is no such thing as a supercar..just high end sports cars. It's all marketing.

I would say a hyper car is an absolute top of the range, limited edition, very exclusive, absurdly extreme performing car. The, 'you cant drive that fast unless they invite you to spend your money' cars.
By todays standards, say at least 2 of the 3: 700hp+, $750k+, under 500 built
Enzo, Veyron, Koenigsegg Agera, Zonda F, Huayra, Mclaren F1, etc
Supercar would be a top of the line car that is available to most people with the money that provides absurd performance, but perhaps more road oriented than track. Not based off a lower model car
Say 600+hp, $300k+, maybe under 5000 available thru its lifecycle
Mucielago, Aventador, Zonda, 911 GT2, Ferarri 599GTB, SLR, etc
Below that would be your high end sportscars. Street cars first, that are great on the track. Could be an exclusive model of a lower end car.
ZR1, 458, 430, gallardo, GTR, 911 turbo, 911 GT3, Aston Martin, R8, SLS etc
Ok this is complicated and brings a lot of cars into a question if they're high end sportscar, supercar or hypercar.
No, You being a fucking moron and having too much time on your hands makes things complicated.. for you. Can you shut the fuck up and stop being such a god damn attention whore? You ruin half the threads in VAC with this bullshit. You're nothing but a troll because no one can be such an idiot and still manage to work a computer. It was funny when it was the odd thread here and there, but this shit is in every thread now.
