Modern supercars are faster, crazier, and more advanced than ever before.
These are my top 10 picks of the best supercars of the decade.
Number one is wrong, but don't just click to number one to see what it is.
Because there is nine other good cars on this list.
No, not true, I'm right he's wrong and I'm about to tell you why.
Starting off the list at number 10 is the Noble M600 from 2010. Yes it’s got a Volvo
engine, built by Yamaha, blah blah blah. 650 hp! Twin Garrett Turbos! If anything
that sounds like a super reliable way to hit 60 mph in 3 seconds flat, everytime, many times.
And to top it off, its got no ABS, no driving aids, and a jet fighter kill switch
for the traction control. All that craziness means that this car is built only for the
hardcore but that’s exactly why it's on our list. Because in the early days that’s
what supercars were. They were cars that wanted to kill you all the time.
Look!
And we’re getting even more loony at number 9 with the Ariel Atom 500 V8 from 2010. Another
bare bones, purely mental, all about driving as fast as you f***ing can monster.
If the Nobel wants to kill you, this car wants to skin and eat you alive. And by the looks
of it, that might be true. But that’s a little bit harshly stated because the car
is actually really well engineered.
It's not a car, it's a roll cage with wheels.
Yeah, I mean he's right. It's a cage with a little tiny v8 made from two motorcycle engines.
But that's really all you need when it comes to setting super fast lap times.
The Audi R8 V10 Plus rolling into number 8. The Audi R8 was dropping jaws since the day
it was born, just like me. And soon enough, more and more supercars started taking it’s
cues. While the previous two cars wanted to kill you, the R8 is more of like a bubble bath
with fine wine, while some creepy dude is tickling your ear with a feather. Yes,
it’s beautiful, yes, it’s fast, but spilling wine ain’t so bad when you’re surrounded by bubbles.
What I mean is, you can’t crash this car unless you drive off a f***ing cliff.
Every aspect of this car is, well, practical. Except for the angry V10 under the hood, i.e.
the creepy dude with the feather. All in all, the R8 is a great example of what modern supercars
are, and what modern supercars are going to be like moving forward.
My number 7 pick goes to the 2017 McLaren 720s. Mclaren’s ultimate supercar blend
of speed, technology and design is their latest and most potent supercar on tap. Yes, Supercar.
Not Hypercar. Because that’s a whole different category. This car does push the threshold
of what a supercar is. Although not as pampering as the Audi R8, the 720S doesn’t want to
kill you either, but rather tuck you in at night, while whispering a horror novel
after you’ve already fallen asleep.
Screaming into number six is the Ferrari 812 Superfast. If there is any question as to
where supercars are going, well, the name Superfast should give you a hint. There’s
always room for more power and more technology to help you put that power down, and let it
be known that this car exhibits exactly that. With close to 800hp and 4 wheel steering,
and some of the sexiest aerodynamics you can come across, this car is a serious example
of what a supercar is. Ferrari is the biggest names in the supercar world for a
few simple reasons that are the basics for every dream car. Screaming engines,
great handling, and refined styling are worked into every car they’ve ever produced.
There's no denying that this front engine v12 beast is going to make you feel completely alive
every single time you hit that gas pedal.
And what exactly does it mean to be alive? If we’re talking supercars, it means putting
down lap times faster than anyone could imagine. And no car is a better example
than the 2017 Mercedes AMG GTR coming in at number 5.
So how exactly can it be better than the cars before it?
Simple, technology my man. And no one else is doing it better
than the company that's been dominating Formula One. And with the GTR, you get a little taste
of that hard earned R&D and its capabilities on and off the track. Things like dry sump
lubrication, speed-sensing dynamic steering, nano-slide cylinder wall technology, zirconium-alloy
valve heads, the list of tech gibberish goes on and on and makes for an incredibly harmonious
track weapon that gives you the greatest bang for your buck of the decade. Whoo
all those big words make me tired. However, if you have trouble fitting your balls and your wallet
into your pants each morning, then you probably already own one the next 4 extremely super cars.
If you got the cash, and the balls then the 488 GTB Ferrari coming in at number 4, will
give you everything you need to be the fastest guy or girl at any track day. Proving again
why Ferrari is the global standard for supercars, they’ve taken their already perfect 458 and
added more power, quicker spooling turbos, wider suspension and active aerodynamics
to push the 488 GTB to the absolute limit of usability and purpose. I mean just by looking
at the thing you can understand that it’s at the top of the supercar food chain. If
you’re brave enough to unleash all of the car's potential, then you’ll be super surprised
at how easily it's to drive. That being said, you still need a lead foot and balls of steel
to put this car in its place, and when you finally put that car in its ballsy place well
your balls are going to be rewarded with all the f***ing crazy cool driving you've been doing.
Oh, sh*t cool thanks Pump.
See what we got "you just said balls 1,000 times.
Balls.
1,001. Huh.
It’s obvious now that if you’re building supercars in the modern age, a racing pedigree
is a serious part of the equation. And starting off our top 3 is car that is known best just for that.
The 2017 Ford GT has a incredible heritage as an American underdog. It's grandpa
was built to beat Ferrari. That's the only reason it exists. With all examples already
spoken for, the GT is already a modern legend. It’s futuristic shape comes way ahead of
design trends that were only previously seen on renders and concept drawings.
Look at this thing.
Flying buttresses. It might be the best looking car ever made. I guarantee that
there's not a single person in this world who thinks this car is ugly. It's perfect.
Maybe it’s not the fastest car on the list. But after taking victory at the most challenging
race on earth, the 24 hours of Le Mans, there’s very little left to debate. But to drive one
let alone own one, I could only assume it'd be more of a spiritual awakening than anything else.
And if you aren’t that spiritual, I guarantee you’re be completely awake after driving
or even standing next to the 2017 Lamborghini Huracan Per ...Performantante. Performante.
Performante. bringing absolute brute terror into my list at Number 2. You know that when
a car sets a Nurburgring Lap record that it’s all about business. And the fact that this
car held that record for as long as it did in the age of technologically advanced supercars,
you know that every single little piece of this car has been optimized to turn your brain
into minestrone soup. And I don’t really need to say much more because the Performante
pretty much ticks every box on the list. It’s sexy AF, it’s fast AF, it’s expensive AF
and it’s italian AF. Of course, there’s a lot going on underneath the hood of this
thing, but if you’re like me and you're not a material scientist, a simple tip of
hat is all you really need to understand the magnitude of speed and wow this car provides.
And that leaves us at our Number 1, most incredible, asphalt assassinating, out of this world modern
supercar that you can buy, or at least dream of buying, like me. The 2017 Porsche 911 GT2 RS.
Boo number five, not number one.
It’s the current king of the Nurburgring. That's all you need to know.
Pumphrey doesn't even know how to drive.
Ok number one done. You can go home now. But if you want to hang
around and talk about it, let’s just say the Porsche GT2 has always been known as the
modern widow maker. Every generation has notoriously come equipped with rear wheel drive and way
too much power to seem like a good idea. And bad ideas of this nature, to me,
are great ideas. The best ideas, actually. And taking that platform and making a performance
focused RS model out of it. First pump to Porsche. You 'da man Ferdinand. They get it,
and they got it. It’s an insanely modified, from the factory, built to do one thing and
one thing only: Show the world what it means to be a modern supercar.
And that’s my list. Let me know how you disagree and if you’re smart, how you agree.
I put a Porsche at number one, and I’m sticking to it. Share this with your friends that love supercars.

You put a Porsche at number one in almost all of these videos.
Because Porsche is the ultimate supercar.
(Both laugh)
"I'm Tony. I love Porsches."
Is Porsche paying you?
Porsche is not paying me.
You are Porsche's Putin. Porsche colluded with you to get to number one on this list.
