Germany, I am married to the idea that the 911 is the greatest sports car.

They're extremely well made just like most German cars! I'm actually gonna be filming a review on one in the next week.

Italy definitely takes the supercar crown. Unfortunately lambo now shareso parts with the R8, id still take a Huracán though lol. At least Ferrari is still making true Italian Supercars.

I just spent six hours yesterday driving home from Chicago in my new to me 2014 Cayman S. I am smitten. Smile on my face just about the whole way.
Yeah I wish Japan still made cars like they did in the 90s-early 2000s. And congrats on the Cayman. My brother is a huge Porsche fan and was trying to convince me to get a cayman instead of the S2k.
I assume you're enjoying it so far lol

And Ferrari/Maserati does not share any parts with Chrysler... Who cares about parts sharing. It makes sense where it makes sense.

Not that I'm disagreeing with you, but the Huracan and R8 are pretty damn close to the same car, as far as being supercars from companies from other countries. Their relationship is even close than the Miata/Fiat 124 Spider relationship. They share the same platform, suspension, and drivetrain. Doesn't get much closer than that (unless you're GM, lol).
