Sports Car may be defined as a car with a sporty look, meaning an automobile which is short in height as compared to other cars to the extent that it almost touches the ground, having a powerful engine and light weight. A typical sports car has two seats, two doors, rear-wheel drive and with high speed. It is in fact a speedy car that needs to be handled quite efficiently and accurately. There are a number of popular companies that manufacture a perfect sports car like Ferrari, BMW’s mid-sized sports car, Porsche, Lotus etc. However a sports car consists of a light-weight powerful engine with ultra modern suspension and a firm chassis due to these features the sports car that is light weight performs more accurately as compared to heavy sports cars. Initially the cars were just considered an important mode of transport for carrying people and goods from one place to the other, and were manufactured to provide its core utility of transporting the people with comfort. Later on these cars soon became a craze amongst the people and a great fascination to drive it with speed and race, apart from its basic usefulness. This was the new era to welcome the sports cars. The trend of sports car started after the Second World War when a new class of sports car was introduced. Initially a very expensive luxury car meant only for the rich and the famous personalities was seen on race tracks are now available with road functionalities and with reasonable pricing structure. There were just a few cars in the historical phase but now these cars are easily obtainable to a normal individual. Enzo Ferrari was the first person design the sports car, in 1929. Then he was followed by many other car designers who started a new age of Sports Car. Ferrari’s entire unit used advanced technologies and modifications and emerged out in the whole world to create a history by manufacturing the Formula One Racing Car, which is an obsession now and will remain in future. The most eligible and fantastic drivers for formula one are Michael Schumacher and Alberto Ascari, who promoted the Ferrari Sports Car to success. Then came the F430 became quite popular due to its performance and affordable pricing structure, after which Superamerica became the most desired of all the Sports Cars. Any individual is first attracted by outer looks and then by its performance, same applies for cars too, so the designers and the manufacturers with a lot of hardwork and efforts introduced a car for racing against its competitors, this further triggered the development of cars for the next generation. It was a great risk to manufacture a speedy car with powerful engine with advanced technologies to improve its speed performance. Highly powerful engine with great speed was fixed into the light weight body of the car which was a great risk to the drivers as it needed to be handled most efficiently. Then came the thought for its safety where the designers worked hard and adopted certain modifications to set limitations on the speed and things like emergency brakes and suspension restrictions were added. However with the advanced Technologies and great techniques a perfect sports car was ready on tracks. Day-by-day the possession for Sports Car has become a rising trend in the market. It may be due to one or all of the following reasons to drive a person to posses a Sports Car. – Its Fabulous Looks: The trendiest design of the Sports Car may e one of the reasons that more and more buyers are going crazy for it. – Functionality: Functionality and the car performance should be the most vital aspect to be considered while purchasing a Sports model.

Thus the experience a driver gets while driving a Sports Car is beyond words. – Pleasure and Thrill: Driving a Sports Car is an amazing feeling as it gives you immense pleasure and the thrill you are craving for. The fun while racing a Sports Car is just incomparable with racing any other car. – Status Symbol: Possessing a Sports Car often gives you an image of a high class status symbol, as it looks more of a luxury item than an automobile for transport.

Here's a lengthy question for all of you to think about and answer.?
The Disputed Truth
From the cowardice that shrinks from new truth; from the laziness that is content with half-truths; from the arrogance that thinks it knows all truth – oh God of Truth deliver us!— Unknown

Why Do We Hate Poor People?
Why is it that when we encounter poor or homeless people they make us cringe?
Why do we want to make them disappear into shelters or remove them out of our sights?
Since the Reagan revolution we have instead of being at war against poverty, we have been at war with poor people.
They litter our streets like so many abandoned cars at a salvage yard.
Why has it been so easy to sell the false narrative that people are poor by choice and that if they would just work harder they wouldn’t be poor?
I think that our reactions to the poor says more about who we are than who they are. Let’s face it there have been poor people throughout recorded history, so what’s the big deal? The big deal is not that there are poor people, but that there are poor people we could help and don’t.
The reason I think we hate poor people is that rather than reminding of us of the blessings we have received, they instead remind us of our vulnerabilities and our insecurities.
They remind so many of us that we are only one missed paycheck or one serious health issue away from their lot and it scares the hell out of us.
We need so badly to believe that this could never happen to us, that we are so insulated from them and their fate that it could never be our fate.
When the reality is too frightening to consider we create these illusions to placate ourselves.
The greatest illusion is that we live in a society that if anyone is willing to work hard enough they can overcome the poverty of their birth.
We regale ourselves with these fables of rags to riches, never considering the reality of these tales.
The reality is a far cry from the false narratives being maintained by those who would keep us ignorant of the truth.
We are constantly fed the fairy-tale of the poor kid who signs a million-dollar sports contract, the million-dollar recording contract, or the Ivy League scholarship.
And for those who have desires that steer towards more iniquitous pursuits we even have the “gangster” or drug dealer chronicles. In other words there is money and wealth to be had by all except the most slothful of our fellow citizens.
How prevalent are these scenarios in modern America?
The truth is that very little has changed for poor people, the majority of children born into poverty will remain in poverty. How can they not?
They are provided with in many cases inferior homes, schools, and sometimes parents. The deck is stacked against them from the moment they take their first breath.
Sure we occasionally give a few dollars here and there with moral superiority and discuss how unfortunate those people are.
All the while hoping they would just disappear and not remind us of how tenuous our hold on the American Dream is.
Not only do they remind us of our perilous situations they also remind us of our conspicuous consumption and how truly far we have bought and sold the lie of more is better.
The truth of this is in the fact that many of us believe that today’s poor are not really poor.
We look at poverty in the third world and convince ourselves that those are truly poor people, the ones here are just whiners.

I think you did a good enough job of answering your own question. Poverty is both absolute and relative and the way society treats people that are poor has been the same for centuries. What you’re witnessing today is nothing new.

the rich hate the poor because they are wary of their own wealth disapearing.
poor people in some third world countrys work very hard for very little reward ,but they lead a pleasant and rich life till the rich offer them a "dream too far"
have a nice day
