This Year's Best of the Best Performance Cars

These models top the performance class of 2015.

Chevy Corvette

The Corvette may be the best bang for your buck on the list at just $55,000 delivered. Its LT1 6.2-liter V8 can provide 460-hp with the performance exhaust option, and carries the new 'Vette to 60 mph in just 3.7 seconds.

Nissan GT-R

This car is fast and powerful, bringing top-flight performance at a price of just over $100K. It goes from 0 to 60 in 2.7 seconds, launched by 545-hp and 463 lb-ft torque from a 3.8 liter V6. All wheel drive with a six-speed dual clutch automatic gearbox is the only way to harness so much energy in a usable manner.

BMW M3

The new M3 ditches the 4-liter V8 for a 3.0-liter, twin-turbocharged in-line six-cylinder, getting 425-hp and 406 lb-ft. With its dual-clutch transmission, the M3 hits 60 mph in 3.9 seconds, but its top speed is electronically capped at 155 mph.

Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT

The SLS line is on its way out, and it went out with a bang. It raised its previous output to a whopping 622-hp and 468 lb-ft of torque from a 6.2-liter V8. Top speed has fallen to a respectable 192 mph, but makes up for it in improved grip and more stability at high speeds.

Audi R8

Balanced all-wheel drive handling and an intuitive dual-clutch transmission, the Audi R8 combines the best in German and Italian automaking. The V10 Plus model carries a 5.2-liter V10 engine producing 550-hp, which powers the R8 from 0 to 60 in 3.5 seconds and a top speed of 197 mph.
