          If you are walking down a street on a nice sunny day you are likely to run into a sports car but they are not just some NEW over used Mustang (because there are too many Mustangs on the road today. the old mustangs are cool though.) They are real sports cars like a Maserati, Porsche, or a Ferrari.

There is a really nice Ferrari 599 in Needham. They are the ultimate family cars for the wealthier family. The 599 are one of the fastest two-seater cars Ferrari has ever built. With a new six-liter V12 engine, it has 620 horsepower. 0-60 in 3.7 seconds it has a top speed of 205 miles per hour. If you are interested in this car I must warn you that the 599 costs about $244,640. Ferrari has really been able to keep up with the demand for a good "family car."

Another car you might see in Needham is the Maserati Quattroporte. This car is not as nice looking as the 599 but it is still a beautiful luxury car made by a true Italian sports car manufacturer. 440 horsepower it goes from 0-60 in 5.1 seconds and its top speed is 177 miles per hour, the Quattroporte is more affordable than the 599 to at $119,750.

There are quite a few Porsche 911s and Caymans in Needham but we are going to talk about the 911 because it is faster and better made. The 911 is a V6 monster with 385 horsepower it goes from 0-60 in just 4.5 seconds and it has a top speed of 185 miles per hour. The 911's price is the best part of all it is only $95,100. That is a great price considering what you are getting.

This is a pie chart that shows what people think is the most common car in Needham. Most people thought the most common car in Needham was the Camry.
