"Supercar" is one of those nebulously defined terms that is still, somehow, perfectly clear. We all know that a supercar is a car that is simply superlative in terms of performance. It's fast as hell, cooler than that famous Outkast line, handles like a race car, has at most two doors, and causes massive amounts of rubbernecking.

These days it seems like we hear of a new supercar company every 13 minutes that promises a 9,000-horsepower, 89-pound car that will outrace F1 cars, take the mantle of "world's fastest production car," and solve world hunger. While we continue to hold our breath for that car to actually see the light of day, we'd like you to celebrate the most extreme and amazing vehicles that have actually made it out into the wild. These are The 50 Best Supercars of All Time.

50. Ascari A10

Year: 2006-Present

In a time when fewer and fewer supercars are coming with a manual transmission as an option, we love that the Ascari A10 can still be had with one, especially as it isn't just a road car, it's a road-worthy evolution of the KZ1-R GT race car that was designed by ex-F1 designer, Paul Brown.

49. Noble M600

Year: 2010-Present

Since the company's introduction in 1999, Noble has released a total of six cars. All of them were highly entertaining, but the M600 is the first one to live up to the supercar label. The M600 might not have the same brand recognition as its Italian competitors, but its 650bhp Yamaha twin-turbo V8 and 225 estimated top speed certainly can keep pace with them.

48. TVR Sagaris

Year: 2005-2006

Peter Wheeler believes that ABS and airbags promote over-confidence in driving; that's why the TVR Sagaris doesn't have either of those things. It does have a 420hp, 4.0-liter inline-6, however. Its intense, raw power is likely to be more car than the owner can handle, and we love it for that.
