i agree with Gunner. I would also add that a supercar needs to be very exclusive in addition to being fast. For example a Porsche Turbo can go over 200 and do the 1/4mile under 12 with a few mods, but is still not a supercar because there are too many of them around.

These days, that top fraction means over 200 MPH coupled with a quarter in the 12s (without special drag preparation) and 0-100-0 in under ten seconds. Some Cobra builds can match this, but only the expense of being very raw and uncomfortable rides. Not the same thing at all.
