where’s the Mazdaspeed3? lol i loved that car. 

uhhh both the Camaro and Mustang V6 models have 300 hp and are cheaper than their V8 counterparts…

this list sounds like a joke……370z at 9th & the chevy impala at 4th…. am i missing something?

The 
Subaru WRX STI is definitely the best choice among all these. 

 You bet. In Canada the ZL1 will probably cost $100K.

It is based on a rally car and not a giant 2 door boat…..

I agree mark! the 370Z is far superior to the impala in performance and reliability.

Can you guys read? Its goes by descending price. Anyway, on topic, Ford yet again trumps another “Top List”

it is the CHEAPEST cars with over 300HP..370Z is 25k while the mustang is 23K

every one of you complaining about the car at the top of this story are morons…

the wrx sti is the only one that could go fast around a corner

There is so much Korean shit and Japanese junk on this list.  

The reason most of these are cheap is because they’re domestic. There are only 2 cars on this list that are worth anything IMO. Numbers 9 and 10.

Your article does nothing but perpetuate the FALLACY of ‘horsepower’ to ignorant American drivers.

MOST Americans will never run their engine RPMs up to where their car has it’s ‘rated’ horsepower.

-Acceleration- is about TORQUE.  That’s why a 6-speed turbo diesel can do 0-60 in 6.1 seconds.

It’s why you see a Dodge Cummins turbo-diesel truck blowing away a Mustang at the drag-strip.

Horsepower is what enables you to maintain speed against aerodynamic drag… in a gas vehicle, the maximum torque is typically in the same RPM range as the maximum horsepower.  e.g. 4500-6500.

That’s why my old 1987 Porsche 951 (4 cylinder 2.5 liter Turbo) can beat a shiny new V-8 Corvette… the ‘Vette’ driver is afraid to take his car up to the RPM range where GM says his engine was rated.

Since you have to say Americans Im assuming you dont live here and therefor have no idea what you’re talking about. I run the piss out of my challenger and destroy bitches. Im sure your porsche would kick my ass but dont say Americans cant drive because of some dipshits you watched on youtube.

If you pay 25k for any impala you’re retarded

You know you can buy an ss and send it to hennessy for $18,000 and they will super and turbo charge it for like 650+ hp right? Even stock it would fuck up a wrx sti, easily.

 Yes, but Hennessy is a crook.

the impalas have been around forever, they are inexpensive to operate and very reliable

This cars like good

Its a same they’re all so goddamn porky.  If they weren’t, 300hp would actually be something!  

for me
1 370z nismo (that what i will buy soon)
2 STI  (good chose Ihad a WRX very fun and now a 2.5RS winter car and for family car)
3 Evolution (where is it)
4 Genesis…cheap interior
5 all scrap american they have no handling just power

American cars..all scrap no handling..really?? Although I agree that many..maybe most American sports cars don’t handle as well as Euro or Japanese cars, that generalization is a huge overreach. The example of this is the Corvette. Ok, well..as I struggle try to find another example your point is I guess made.. But the snotty way you put it rubbed me the wrong way.. Even the Mustang with its lack of an independent rear suspension isn’t scrap. In fact as a whole the selection of cars made and sold in America blows away the selection offered in any other country in terms of affordable quality. For example..Italy is home to some of the finest vehicles in the world but all of the affordable Italian cars suck..horribly. That’s pretty much the same story across the globe. Another great example of American quality..Jaguar was really dragging the bottom when Ford bought them and brilliantly kept the integrity of the brand and reinstalled the quality Jag was known for but had lost..

All of you are retards. The title says top 10 cheapest. All these cars are cheap. Obviously the mustang is the best priced 300 hp car in the list. And to clarify this. You cannot compare many of these cars. Most of them are in different classes anyway.
