10. Ford Mustang

Ford Mustangs are another sports car that has a long history in the United States, with production starting in 1964. While they have always been a popular addition to the race track, they didn’t always have the speed that they have today. In 2011, the Mustang got major engine upgrades that allowed it to 305 to 412 horsepower. The 2011 Ford Mustang GT featured a more powerful engine and could easily reach top speeds of 155 miles per hour. Optional V6 Performance Packages that included unique front and rear brake calipers and braces were also available. Look for several convenient features such as cruise control, electric speed-proportional power steering, stability control and more. With a price tag right around $20,000, the 2011 Mustang is hard to pass up.
