Many wouldn’t understand when the older generation of speed lovers talk about the 200 mph mark as if it were a big deal, especially those that weren’t there in the 70s and 80s when even the fastest car in the world would struggle to reach speeds of today's readily available sports sedans. The first production car to break the 200 mph barrier was the legendary supercar, the Ferrari F40, in 1987. Today, 33 years later, the F40 costs three to four times the debuting price.
The F40 broke the ground for the 200 mph limit, and many other auto manufacturers followed suit with some quite exciting and fast supercars, sports cars, and even some family sedans. That means that the 200 mph mark is no longer a tough nut to crack. And with one of these new cars available for sale right now, you can experience the breathtaking experience of 200 mph.
