The jump to V8 makes the Dodge more expensive and less economical to run though, which will definitely hurt your bank balance. The Dodge Challenger is a 5 seater muscle car, which adds a few practicality points.

The V6 trim of the Challenger is around 3 grand cheaper than the base trim of 370Z Coupe and also comes with an 8 speed automatic or 6-speed manual transmission.

The EcoBoost Mustang is one of the biggest tricks Ford has ever pulled out of its bag. It has the performance and the road-presence of a muscle car, and yet it has great MPG numbers, great handling, and most of all, a very affordable MSRP.

The 370Z, despite being an extremely capable budget-friendly Sportscar with slightly more performance, still feels a bit too tame compared to the Mustang.

The Subaru BRZ is probably the only other purpose-built sportscar here, just like the 370Z Coupe. For a budget-friendly sportscar with low power output and performance, Subaru BRZ manages to be a surprisingly great package. The athletic handling of Subaru BRZ is bound to charm every car lover.
