Driving For Sports Car Lovers: Everything You Need To Know

Getting behind the wheel of a sports car is about enjoying the thrill of performance, from the dynamic handling on offer to the way you feel connected to the road.

And when you choose to lease a sports car, rather than buying one outright, you can swerve the high purchase cost while also accelerating away from costly depreciation.

Is your dream sports car within reach?

Leasing is the easy and affordable way to enjoy the sports car of your dreams. You’ll pay a low initial fee followed by regular, fixed monthly payments, before simply handing the car back at the end of your deal.

And when it comes to sports cars, we’re passionate specialists here at Select Car Leasing.

What’s our definition of a ‘sports car’? Well, that title used to be reserved for two-seat soft-tops. But it’s a phrase that’s now expanded to including everything from fun-loving roadsters to sensational supercars. And, of course, you can also get your sports car kicks with an electric, rather than petrol, powertrain.

What sports cars are available to lease?

You’ll find affordable, two-door roadsters like the iconic Mazda MX-5, Toyota GR86 or Alpine A110.

You can take your pick from blisteringly-quick coupes, like the Audi TT, BMW M3, and the electric Porsche Taycan.

Legends of the road like the Ford Mustang and the Audi RS5 Coupe are there to put a grin on your face, as are performance convertibles like the Jaguar F-Type and the Porsche 718 Boxster.

And as you move into premium supercars from Porsche, Ferrari, McLaren, Lamborghini, Lotus, Maserati and Aston Martin, our dedicated ‘Specialist’ division is here to guide you through the entire sports car leasing process.

Key things to consider if you're looking for a sports vehicle:

Roof Type

Do you want a closed-roof vehicle? Open top? Retractable lid? Or something removable like the Porsche 911 Targa 4? Consider both the aesthetic of your desired sports car, but also the sort of driving you’ll be doing, before deciding on your sports car lease.

Usage

How often do you plan to use your sports car? If it’s going to be a daily driver, something that’s extreme and unforgiving might be tricky to live with. Also think about the number of seats you need, the suitability of the car for children, as well as the practicalities of holiday trips and shopping excursions.

Luggage and Storage

How much space will you need in the back? Consider whether you'll have to place a lot of baggage in the car at different times. And remember that while the rear seats in some sports cars are only really fit for small children, they make a great place to stow luggage.

Front or Rear Wheel Drive

A traditional rear-wheel drive sports car might provide the rush of adrenaline you crave, but it may also require a steady hand on the wheel. All-wheel drive sports cars like the Audi R8 or the BMW M5 Competition will offer reassuring handling dynamics. The Honda Civic Type R hot-hatch is resolutely front-wheel drive. And if too much power sounds intimidating, sports cars like the 132 PS Mazda MX-5 offer all the thrills minus the threat of any spills.
