Some of the most overrated cars.

Updated: 29 Nov 2024

As car people we obviously have to deal with fanboys saying that this is the best car, and that is the best. So today, we are going to shine some light on these cars on why they are overrated.

Lamborghini Aventador

The Lamborghini Aventador is one of the most overrated cars to not just the younger ‘enthusiasts’, but even the older ones. It has a 6.5 liter V12 that makes 700 horsepower at all four wheels. Big power in an Italian supercar, means a lot of fans.

Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R

You should have seen this one coming. The R34 is by far one of the most, if not the most overrated car to exist. It has a huge fan base because of the hit movie franchise Fast and Furious. The car was driven by Brian O’Conner. This car becomes more overrated each and everyday. With the thousands of videos on the internet about it, it just grows.

Haggard Garage. Need I say more? Other than the YouTube channel Haggard Garage bringing the Miata back to life (and making it more overrated than ever), I really don’t know why it’s overrated.

Mazda RX-7

The Mazda FD RX-7 was one of the few car models to feature a rotary engine. These rotary engines were incredibly rare because only one car manufacturer ever made them (I think?). Along with that, rotaries can be unreliable, I’ve heard. People also tend to swap out these rotaries for an LS engine, which I am not opposed to (inb4 hate).

The Bugatti Veyron.

The Bugatti Veyron was one of the fastest cars in the world. It was manufactured in France and made over 1000 horsepower. Big horsepower = fast. Fast = cool to fanboys and car guys alike.

Ford Shelby GT350R

While this car was overrated, it has good reasoning. It lapped the Nurburgring faster than some supercars and hypercars. That’s incredible for a $100,000 car. Along with that, this car features a 5.2 liter flat plane crank V8 that sounds fantastic, and delivers the power very nicely.

Well guys, that brings this #blogpost to an end. I hope you all enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed making it. I know there was a bunch of cars I missed but I found these ones to be a tad more overrated than the rest. Anyway, I’ll see you all later, take care everybody!

Comments

There were many manufacturers making rotaries, not just Mazda

oh… well I’m an idiot

This is very true

Thanks!

Yup! I agree with all of them, even the R34 that is my favourite car, i think it´s overrated, the amount of people that think it can beat for example a Ferrari F40 it´s crazy

Yeah. It’s ridiculous

Totally the aventador, also 458

Yeah

I get what your saying, they are overrated. But they are all great cars and you can’t deny that. Every single car here brought something new to the table.

I know. They are overrated, but for a good reason.

Even though the R-34 is my favorite car in the world, I agree that it is overrated. However, compared to the R-35, it’s nothing.

Yeah lol

just a random overrated fest

I agree with all of these! Also important to note that cars that are overrated are not necessarily bad cars, why else would they become overrated in the first place?

I agree with that. I’ll add that in once I can get back on the PC

Most under rated cars
1: McLaren 675lt
2: see above
3: 5x2-9
4: Clue - Woking, England
5: Yeah, you get the picture

Lol

I might think slightly that you are a 675LT fanboy.

Performance wise nothing would beat it but damn it sounds bad in real life

You don’t really explain why you think some of these cars are overrated. And also good to help the reader to understand who is rating them too high? I doubt that you ever have driven any of these cars?

I would but a. Some of them are self explanatory, and b. some of them are just overrated. And your correct, I have not driven any of these cars because I can’t drive.

Look, some of them are overrated and that’s fact, but it’s for a good reason
