Top 10 supercar stalwarts

To judge by how often it happens, creating a supercar isn’t too difficult if you have enough resources.

The tricky bit is to sell it, then create another, and keep going until your company’s name is spoken in hushed tones around the world.

Here, we check out 10 manufacturers which have been in the supercar business not just for years but for decades (including Maserati, whose A6GCS Berlinetta – pictured above – we'll be looking at shortly), showing early and recent models for comparison and contrast.

There are, of course, many definitions of the word ‘supercar’, and we’ve chosen quite a loose one. We’re sure you’ll disagree with some of our selection, but however we picked them, that would be the case… And we’ve not ranked them, these are listed in alphabetical order. Enjoy!
