The Subaru WRX STI and the Mitsubishi Evo. As shown in Top Gear, when tuned right, they can outrun a supercar in the quarter mile, and take them on in the corners as well. Plus it was a stock evo that beat a lambo in the corners

What are some cars you think are underrated? Personally, I think the Jaguar XJ220 is underrated.
AGREEEEED. I love the XJ220, and it is so overlooked

Agree with the XJ220. Nobody even looked at it at a show recently and were all over the P1 and Vitesse. I love the XJ220. Also the LP670 SV is very underrated.

Toyota Prius
1. Killer design that could put Pininfarina to shame.
2. Speed machine, faster than a Ferrari with no wheels.
3. All the girls love a man who drives a Prius.
4. That milage though, saving you gas money to spend on weed.
5. Saves polar bears (Not really cause the production process is a pain in the ass but people don't need to know about that.)

Three cars I think are underrated are the Ferrari 308/328, the Lamborghini LM002 and all G Wagons.
The 308 and 328 aren't that fast in a straight line but they are perfect in every other way and I am not just being biased. It is an all around fantastic car.
The LM002 is completely pointless but is more awesome than anything else on the road. The illogical combination of a military vehicle with a Countach or Diablo V12 turned out to be genius. It didn't used to be but now it is one of my my favorite cars just because it is so nuts. Maybe I'm crazy.
I don't think most people comprehend the brilliance of the Mercedes G. It is a car that really should not exist and is nearly identical to when it was released 35 years ago. They are hand made in a special factory in Austria and drive wonderfully. Everything on them is mechanical and the whole thing feels invincible.

I have to agree with you about the STI. I was very impressed with one and liked it a lot more than the E92 M3.

The subaru WRX STI is waaaayyyy better than the WRX anyone will agree with me?? Next your guna say that the Mitsubishi lancer evo is slow??
There's a difference between saying the WRX is underrated and saying the WRX STI is slow.
I didn't say either of them were slow??

I see what you did there but the BMW i-hatchback thing(I forgot the name) that gets much better mileage than a Prius at 470.8 mpg.

Plus the G wagon is one of the most amazing off road vehicles you can buy..Not that people drive them offroad but thats really what they were designed for

the new Ghibli and the DB9
No! The New Ghibli is overrated by a million miles. To call it a piece of sh*t is even giving it too much credit. The car doesn't look, sound, or feel like a Maserati at all, and I could tell this just by being a passenger! The quality is appalling for what you're paying for the car, which is highly overpriced when compared to any other comparably sized sedan. In the two I've chosen to sit in, the first (the very first one in the United States) had a broken rear air vent nozzle thing and the second one (the one my dad test drove and I rode in) had some strange noises and vibrations coming from the wheels that really should not have been there on a $80,000 car. Now I've heard of a few people having things like the writing on the buttons wearing off after stupidly short periods of time.
The car does look decent, but that's the only plus point I could ever give to it. It is a modern day BiTurbo (kudos to Maserati for naming the engine they use a "BiTurbo" after the worst car in their illustrious 100 year history).
