We stuck posters of our dream supercars on the bedroom walls, selected the rides while playing video games and carried pictures in our wallets. We fantasized about driving through town in a lavish vehicle while everyone gawked at us, green with envy. While some of us saved up to own that car by the age 30, most of us gave up on that dream once we graduated from university and discovered the cost of living.

Apart from the blistering speeds, lavish interior, and elegant exterior, supercars carry a high price tag. The average employee cannot afford supercars but opts for the fantasy. Decades ago, supercars were reserved for only wealthy people, but due to financial institutions offering vehicle finance, as well as depreciation, more people could afford a supercar.

The entry market supercar may be a Porsche or an Audi R8, but the top tier supercars emerged from Italy and Britain manufacturers. Although the most famous supercar types stem from brands such as Lamborghini, Ferrari, and Bugatti, the automobile market is filled with supercar models that most people are unaware exist. We scoured the globe for supercars and found majestic vehicles that were on the market for a brief period, not marketed well or with most consumers showing no interest in ownership because of costs. Our list contains supercars that most people didn't know existed.

20 AD Tramontana

The Tramontana won't win any beauty contests, but the car makes up its lackluster appearance by delivering blistering speeds. The V12 engine ensures that the car gets 888 horsepower to reach a top speed of over 201 mph, according to Top Speed.

Tramontana offers aerodynamic elements to optimize the vehicle's performance at high speeds. The company stated that it would build only 12 units of the Tramontana XTR (extreme sensations) each year. People who have deep pockets will have to dig, paying $514,000 for the ride.

19 Caparo T1

Although the Caparo T1 looks like a Formula-1 car, it is a road-legal car that McLaren F1 engineers designed. The manufacturer has stated that the Caparo T1 will emerge onto the roads again after the company went broke in 2015. Caparo will re-brand the vehicle and call it the T1 Evo.

According to Sunday Times Driving, the car will cost around $320,000. Angad Paul was the creator of the T1 and son of the metals magnate Lord Paul, as well as heir to the Caparo steel empire. At such an exorbitant price, the T1 Evo will have to provide something that the supercar market hasn't seen.

18 AM RB 001

When Aston Martin and Red Bull technologies partnered to make a revolutionary hypercar, the two companies named it AM RB 001. The official name is Aston Martin Valkyrie, continuing the tradition of Aston Martin 'V' cars.

The mid-mounted powertrain of the Aston Martin Valkyrie takes its cue from F-1. The car has a 6.5-liter V12 engine that is torque enhanced during take-off and uses the electric motor for a power boost. The designers claimed that the car will reach 249 mph once delivered to its owners at the end of 2018. Aston Martin will produce only 150 units; all units sold.

17 Zerouno Duerta

You won't hear an argument from me if you state that Italy makes the best supercars in the world. Lightness and aerodynamics are the primary elements of the Duerta. The manufacturer used carbon fiber for the entire bodywork, as well as generous use of the material in the interior.

The car has a 5.2-liter V10 engine that allows it to reach a top speed of 198 mph. The bonnet contains the y-duct system to optimize downforce and airflow while in motion. Drivers can manually remove the roof, but the car contains an emergency soft top used in tough weather.

16 Lykan Hypersport

Supercar enthusiasts can pop down to the Lykan dealership to buy a one-of-a-kind car that will cost a fortune. Although the car fosters only a 3.7-liter engine, it can pump 750 horsepower considering it is a twin-turbo flat-six. Lykan Hypersport needs 2.8 seconds to reach 0 to 60 mph and has a top speed of 242 mph.

How does the United Arab Emirates manufacturer justify the $2.6 million price tag? The car has diamonds in the LED headlamp, leather stitched with gold thread, power doors, a Cyrus Klepcy watch worth $156,000 and an infotainment system that no other car fosters. Lykan made seven units.

15 Icona Vulcano

Consumers who thought that Bugatti was expensive will be astonished to find out the price of the Icona Vulcano. The Blackbird SR-71 airplane inspired the design of the Vulcano, made out of titanium. The manufacturer claims that it took 10,000 hours to craft the titanium into the shapes required.

The car has a 6.2-liter engine that pumps out 661 horsepower and needs 2.8 seconds to reach 0 to 60 mph. The top speed of the car is 220 mph plus, according to Top Gear. Consumers need deep pockets to afford the Vulcano, as the price fetches at around $2.7 million.

14 SSC Ultimate Aero XT

According to Guinness World Records in 2007, the car held the title of the fastest production car in the world until Bugatti unveiled the Veyron Super Sport in 2010 - quite the accomplishment.

The Ultimate Aero could reach a top speed of 256 mph. If you thought that was fast, then the Ultimate Aero XT will leave you flabbergasted when it reaches its top speed of 273 mph. The car produced 1,300 horsepower and needed 2.65 seconds to reach 0 to 60 mph, according to Top Speed.

13 Ferrari Superamerica 575M

All car enthusiasts have heard of the Ferrari brand, but only a few know about the Superamerica 575M. Not all Ferrari types reached household status, and one of those models was the Superamerica 575M.

The car has a 5.7-liter engine that pumped out 532 horsepower, according to Complex. The distinguishing feature of this Ferrari was the flip-over roof. The glass roof folded back onto the deck lid in seven seconds. When the glass roof was up, it would electrically turn blue, blocking out 99.5% of the sun's heat, as well as light. Ferrari built only 559 units of the 575M.

12 Zenvo TSR-S

In the market since 2007, since then, the company has built around 25 cars and doesn't rely on suppliers to do the car building - they instead opt for doing the manual work.

The manufacturer claims that the car can reach 0 to 60 mph in 2. 8 seconds and reaches a top speed of 202 mph while the engine pumps out a gargantuan 1,177 horsepower, according to Top Gear. When the engineers built the TSR-S, they intended to make the car work harder, so that it can provide better performance. The 2019 model is in production and could fetch as high as $2 million.

11 Arrinera Hussarya

Arrinera might not be familiar to most supercar enthusiasts, as the Polish company emerged as a small manufacturer to build a fancy supercar. The company emerged into the industry when it developed the Venocara concept, which morphed into a better supercar called Hussarya.

The moniker pays tribute to Poland's 17th-century cavalry, the Hussars. The Polish manufacturer stated that it would produce only 33 units of the car and demand a whopping price of $272,800, according to Top Speed. The car has a V8 engine that pumps out 650 horsepower and reaches a top speed of 211 mph.

10 Dauer 962 Le Mans

At first glance, the Dauer 962 Le Mans looks like a bulky Porsche. The two cars have a lot in common. The Dauer 962 Le Mans was a re-skinned Porsche 962 racecar for the road, according to Complex.

Dauer, a car manufacturer from Germany used unique carbon fiber and kevlar body panels to assemble the supercar. The car had a leather interior and a powerful engine that spurted out 730 horsepower, allowing the vehicle to reach 0 to 60 mph in 2.6 seconds. The manufacturer only produced 12 units from 1993 until 1997, when production ceased.

9 Mosler MT900

Mosler is a small supercar manufacturer that built the MT900. The company used the designer responsible for the C5 Corvette to design the MT900. The car has gone through several iterations, but the latest model features a 7- liter LS7 V8 engine that is capable of pumping out 530 horsepower.

The car was in production from 2001 until 2011. During that period, the manufacturer built only 14 units. The starting price for the vehicle was $200,000, according to Top Speed. If you are one of the lucky owners of one of the 14 cars, we envy you.

8 Falcon F7

Supercar enthusiasts who want a remarkable vehicle that is built in Detroit and has an engine that is capable of pumping out 1,100 horsepower will love the Falcon F7. The car has a lightweight carbon fiber and kevlar panel construction, which includes inner and structural panels for maximum weight savings, durability and quality.

The V8 engine and 6-speed transaxle with dual disc clutch system ensure that the car reaches 0 to 60 mph in 2.7 seconds and a top speed of over 2oo mph. The best aspect of the F7 is that the manufacturer hand-built each unit to ensure that the car is flawless.

7 Giugiaro Sibylla

The manufacturer from Italy was responsible for some of the greatest automobile designs but lost its place in the spotlight a few years ago when it stopped working with big automakers.

Giugiaro has recently unveiled a few concepts that may revive the manufacturer's reputation for producing outstanding vehicles such as the Parcour and Zerouno. The 2018 concept is called the Sibylla. The car is electric, and Giugiaro developed it in cooperation with Envision, a company from China that specializes in energy management software and wind turbines. The car has a transparent dome roof and 22-inch wheels.

6 Noble M600

The designers and engineers at the British supercar plant Noble outdid themselves when they assembled the M600. The car features a 4.4-liter V8 engine that is capable of pumping out 650 horsepower when drivers select the race setting in the cabin.

The car also has an old-school six-speed stick and slightly assisted brakes. Noble M600 is capable of reaching a top speed of 225 mph. The manufacturer commenced the production of the supercar in 2010 and has since kept the assembly line flowing. Considering the car needs three seconds to reach 0 to 60 mph, consumers will pay $260,000 to own the supercar.

5 Felino CB7

Consumers in Canada who want a superb car can visit the Felino Corporation in Quebec to get a glimpse of the car that racing driver Antoine Bessette designed. Although the car has an odd rear, it makes up for it by producing 525 horsepower from the 6.2-liter engine, which allows the vehicle to reach a top speed of 190 mph, according to Top Speed.

The car needs three seconds to reach 0 to 60 mph. The company built and developed the concept for four years using the finest materials. Bessette stated that he built the car for the track, but consumers could use it as a street legal vehicle.

4  Force 1

Production for this supercar began in 2016, as VLF Automotive built it around the 8.4-liter V10 of the Dodge Viper. Henrik Fisker was responsible for the design of the car, which produces a top speed of 218 mph, and the massive engine that spurts out 745 horsepower needs three seconds to reach 0 to 60 mph.

The front and rear signature Henrik Fisker wheels have a concave section design to improve the strength of the wheel, according to VLF Automotive. The standard is the 6-speed manual transmission, but consumers can choose the optional 6-speed automatic with paddle shift.

3 Sin R1

Sin Cars produced the perfect vehicle if you want to own a supercar that has three different engine options. The Belgium manufacturer is offering the Sin R1 as a 6.2-liter, 7-liter and 6.2-liter supercharged with a 6-speed manual transmission. The car weighs 2,755 lbs and can achieve a maximum speed of 187 mph.

The car partakes in the Maxi-Series and the European GT4 Series. Although the car provides sublime performance, consumers will find the Sin R1 cheaper than most supercars. At $188,000, the car is a bargain.

2 Techrules Ren RS

The company from China unveiled a slew of concepts such as the GT96 TREV (turbine-recharging electrical vehicle), but the production-ready, lightweight, hyper-aggressive Ren RS made its debut at the 2018 Geneva International Motor Show.

If you thought the Bugatti engine pumped out a lot of horsepower, then you would be surprised to learn that the Ren RS boasts an engine that pumps out 1,300 horsepower and reaches a top speed of 205 mph while needing three seconds to reach 0 to 60 mph.

1 Superlite SL-C

The distinguishing feature between the SL-C and other supercars is that a small group of engineers designed the car without passing the concept through a committee and made it according to their specifications.

The car has a clean sheet infused with state of the art technology that makes the ride easier to build and better for driving. The car boasts a few engine options, but the top of the range LS9 is a 6.2-liter engine, capable of pumping out 638 horsepower. The car needs 3.2 seconds to reach 0 to 60 mph and has a top speed of 222 mph. The cost of the Superlite SL-C is $179,000, according to Top Speed.
