Despite all of the noise that sports cars will soon go the way of the dodo, there are a bunch on the market. In fact, there are so many that we think there are a bunch of overrated options to critique so we made it the subject of our question of the day. It turns out that you lot agree. Here are the top five overrated sports cars on the market according to you.
5 – Nissan Z – Nissan’s retro-styled sports car got 7 upvotes and not a single downvote. Stigasawuswrecks submitted the car and explained his thoughts quite succinctly: ” Beaten by every car in its class and brakes are still Nissan bad.”
4 – Audi S3 / RS3 / S4 / Golf R – This is a broad entry so we nearly didn’t include it but Ben made some good points and it received 9 upvotes and only 1 downvote. “None of these are terrible cars, but I feel they’re not upholding the reputation they’ve earned in previous models and instead have been a letdown in that context,” he wrote.

There were a few dissenters (me included if we’re talking about the RS3 only) but a number of you agreed that the Golf R itself deserved the title of the most overrated car.
3 – BMW M3 / M4 – This pair got 14 upvotes and not a single downvote. Yudha Bagaskara pointed out its “hideous front grille” and Reagan1 took things further. They pointed out its “awful, iPad dash…and weight…”
2 – BMW Z4 – No car received as many upvotes as the Z4 without getting a single downvote. The final score for this two-door sports car was 18-0. Some disagreed but even then it was called irrelevant.
1 – Toyota Supra – The most over-rated car according to all of you is a Toyota – and one co-developed with BMW at that. It received 26 upvotes and only 2 downvotes making it the most agreed-upon overrated sports car here. BeerThirty247 made the point quite clearly. ” Sorry Toyota but an icon should never be rebadged from a competitor,” they said. In our testing, the Supra was a lot of fun but that doesn’t exclude it from potentially being overrated.
