Affordable Sports Cars: 10 Great Choices


Performance for the masses. That’s the mantra of affordable sports cars. These may not be the lowest priced performance machines on the market, but they offer a bang for the buck ratio that is hard to match. They are the sports cars that prioritize performance above all else. Their singular mission is to deliver a faster or more rewarding driving experience than anything else in their price range. 

Below, we have gathered 10 vehicles that fit the criteria of Affordable Sports Cars. Not everyone’s definition of affordable is the same, but we discuss each car’s merits in this regard. Sedans, coupes, hatchbacks and roadsters, there is a little something for everyone. High horsepower, razor sharp responses, or unflappable grip. whatever your taste, this list has you covered.


First up is an obvious answer, the Toyota GR86 and Subaru BRZ twins. All new for 2022, the small sports coupes have improved in just about every way possible. More power, better handling, a nicer interior and arguable better styling. Despite the complete overhaul, that fun-to-drive feeling has remained, with a connection between driver and car that is hard to find at any price. The fact these two start well under $30,000 is just a bonus.

Any trim of either car is a great choice as even the automatic offers a fun driving experience and makes the car more accessible to a larger group of buyers. Our recommendation, though, is either the BRZ Limited or the Toyota GR86 Premium as both come with the stickier summer tires.

The Ones to Get:

Subaru BRZ Limited ($30,495 USD / $32,495 CAD)
Toyota GR86 Premium ($30,300 USD / $34,490 CAD)
