In this article, we're not going to be talking about the best sports cars under $30,000. Instead, it's time to refinance your mortgage and realize that life's too short to not be driving around a Ferrari Roma or an Audi R8 every single day.

Instead of writing about the more bold and brash supercars that might not have the most comfortable seats or creature comforts, we're going to be covering the most plush, posh but still incredible luxury sports cars that you can buy. We use overall speed coupled with pricing and horsepower to help you determine what the best sports luxury car to buy for you is.

How we got our model selections: HotCars analyzed new luxury sports cars for 2024 and 2025 model years only across several segments: coupes, four door coupes and supercars.

Ratings were awarded in three key categories: Starting MSRP, 0 to 60 times, and overall horsepower and torque. We used a combined average from each of the categories to determine our HotCars Rating, and sort these luxury sports cars in order with the highest ranking of each category appearing first. Additional information, such as overall cargo capacity and top speed, were added for reference, but not factored into the ratings.

Sharing its bones with the Lamborghini Huracán, this is the last call for the 2024 Audi R8. Get it while you can because rumor has it there will be an EV version somewhere down the road before the 2020s are up. The R8 is the more grand touring version of the Huracán as it has a bit more of a luxurious interior with Alcántara seats and door panels.

There is no infotainment screen, but everything that you need is located on the meter display. The HVAC dials are mini LCD screens as well. Most importantly, you get one of the fastest top speeds on the list and an 8-speed dual clutch transmission that would make even some die-hard manual enthusiasts reconsider.

While the kidney grille may still be hotly contested, there's no denying that the 2024 BMW M4 can keep up with most, if not all, of the luxury sports cars on the list. Definitely one of the cheaper ones with a starting MSRP of $80,000, the M4 can still get up to 60 mph in 4.1 seconds.

It also offers creature comforts like the new curved display, interesting upholstery color offerings, and a classic style BMW M steering wheel. Plus, BMW's 3.0-Liter twin turbocharged inline-6 is, to this day, considered one of the best inline 6-cylinder engines on the market.

The 2024 BMW M8 GranCoupe might not look like a supercar at first glance. When it first screams by you, you'd probably think, "that looks like a GT." Technically, yes, it is. But, with a ludicrous twin turbocharged 4.4-liter V8 and a top speed of 190 MPH, this Bimmer has supercar-level prowess for a not-so supercar price point.

The interior is what you'd come to expect from a BMW with levels of utilitarianism and upper-class materials mixed together to create a superb atmosphere while the V8 is screaming in the background.

With one of the most impressive V8s on the market, including a flat plane crankshaft, a blistering 0 to 60 time of 2.6 seconds, and a cockpit inspired by an American fighter jet...all for a starting MSRP of $114,395.

It seems safe to say that Chevrolet absolutely hit the ball out of the park with their newest C8 Corvette. It's definitely one of the coolest sports cars on the list.

When you think of "luxury sports cars", your first thought could be a Ferrari. The Ferrari Roma, for example, is the Italian automaker's front-engine, twin-turbo V8 offering, but don't let that engine placement fool you. This car still hits with 612 horsepower and a 0 to 60 time of 3.4 seconds.

Plus, you'll be cocooned in Ferrari's latest interior offerings. It has all digital screens from the gauge cluster to the infotainment system, plus the passenger has one. There's even a back seat.

Maserati's latest supercar is the Maserati MC20. The automaker has forgone the Ferrari-made V8s of the past and instead looked to their own engineers to produce the formidable "Nettuno" twin-turbocharged 3.0-Liter V6 that can now be found in the likes of the GranTurismo and other future Maseratis.

This Italian stallion comes with a host of Stellantis' newest tech, from UConnect 5 on the infotainment system to a small LCD screen allowing you to choose your different drive modes on the center console. You can also opt for a suspension lifting system since it's so low to the ground.

However, it does still produce 416 horsepower and gets a decent top speed of 174 MPH. It might be the most posh one on the list when it comes to the interior.

It has a stunning array of ambient lighting tricks and a giant tablet-like infotainment system. The 4-cylinder itself has an electronically-controlled waste gate for precise intake pressure control and a reinforced crank assembly, ensuring that all 416 horses get delivered almost immediately.

The interior is nice too, with cashmere upholstery offerings and an optional panoramic glass roof. The infotainment system is a 7-inch vertical display that offers Android Auto and Apple Carplay.

If the 911 Turbo is a bit out of your price range, but you still want the classical nature a 911 can offer you, then the standard 911 may be for you. You can either opt for the coupe or 911 Cabriolet version. It may still be in the six-figure range in terms of pricing, but you get one of Porsche's famed 3.0-liter flat-6 engines.

Plus, unlike the Turbo, you can opt for a 6- or 7-speed manual transmission if the 8-speed dual clutch isn't your thing. As always, you can dress your 911 in whatever colors and materials your heart desires.

Is the Porsche 911 Turbo one of the best luxury sports cars to hit the market ever? We'd like to think so. It has the fastest top speed on the list, one of the smaller engines, and is reasonably priced (in comparison to everything else).

The 911 Turbos are known for offering a bespoke purchase experience. You're able to customize the interior and exterior and the color of each aspect right down to the fan vents. Tied to the engine is an eight speed dual clutch automatic, but unfortunately there is no manual option.
