The Worst Supercars To Drive Everyday
Owning a supercar is the ultimate flex—until you try to use it like a normal car. Sure, they’re fast, loud, and look incredible parked outside a café, but commuting in one can turn into pure misery. From awful visibility to suspensions that feel like torture devices, here are 20 supercars that prove not every dream machine is built for daily life.
Lamborghini Aventador: The Loudest Alarm Clock You Never Asked For
The Aventador’s V12 shriek is thrilling on a canyon road, but try starting it up at 7 a.m. in a quiet neighborhood. The whole block will know you’re leaving. Add to that the stiff single-clutch gearbox that jerks like a bucking bronco in traffic, and you’ll quickly realize it’s not commuter-friendly.

Ferrari 488 GTB: Beauty That Hates Potholes
The 488 looks elegant, but its razor-sharp suspension is tuned for silky European tracks, not real-world cracked pavement. Every pothole feels like a personal attack, and you’ll be terrified of scraping that expensive carbon-fiber splitter on driveways.
McLaren 720S: A Tech Marvel With Anxiety Issues
The 720S is one of the fastest and most advanced cars in the world—but daily driving it means constantly worrying about reliability gremlins. McLaren electronics have a reputation for glitches, and when you’re just trying to get to work, the last thing you want is a mysterious dashboard warning.

Dodge Viper: Raw Power, Zero Comfort
The Viper is basically an engine with a seat attached. It’s loud, hot, and cramped. No traction control, no luxuries, and a cabin that cooks you in summer. Fun for a weekend blast, but you’ll need chiropractor visits if you drive it every day.

Lamborghini Huracán STO: Race Car With License Plates
The Huracán STO is glorious on track, but absurd on city streets. No sound insulation, an ultra-stiff suspension, and road noise that makes you feel like you’re living inside a blender. It’s a daily driver only if your daily route is the Nürburgring.
Ferrari F40: Legendary, But Primitive
Yes, it’s an icon. But daily driver? Forget it. The F40 has no power steering, no ABS, no soundproofing, and seats that feel like hard shells. Combine that with turbo lag you could time with a stopwatch, and it’s more punishment than pleasure in traffic.

Porsche Carrera GT: The Stall King
Every car enthusiast worships the Carrera GT, but its unforgiving carbon clutch has embarrassed countless drivers in parking lots. You’ll stall it more than you’d like to admit, and driving through stop-and-go traffic becomes a sweaty ordeal.

Lotus Evora: Charm With Compromises
The Evora has precision handling, but living with it every day reveals flaws: clunky ergonomics, cramped cabin, and a lack of modern tech conveniences. Getting groceries? Hope you like carrying them on your lap.

Bugatti Veyron: A Parking Nightmare
With 1,000 horsepower and a curb weight that rivals an SUV, the Veyron is a missile on highways but hopeless in cities. Parking garages are a nightmare, and the idea of parallel parking this $2 million machine will give you cold sweats.

Noble M600: Purist’s Dream, Commuter’s Horror
The M600 offers raw, analog thrills. But with minimal driver aids, no ABS, and an interior that feels unfinished, it’s terrifying in the rain or rush-hour traffic. Daily driving it is like juggling chainsaws on a unicycle.

Lamborghini Countach: Poster Car, Real-World Disaster
Every kid had a Countach poster—but the reality is awful visibility, a clutch heavier than gym weights, and doors that make grocery runs feel like a circus act. It’s better as wall art than a daily commuter.

Ferrari Testarossa: ’80s Icon With ’80s Problems
Sure, it screams Miami Vice, but daily life exposes its flaws: a wide body that doesn’t fit modern lanes, a gearbox that hates cold mornings, and AC that’s barely functional. Your morning commute shouldn’t feel like time travel to 1987.

Maserati MC20: Looks Exotic, Feels Fragile
The MC20 has the looks of a true supercar, but daily life exposes Maserati’s spotty reliability record. Combine that with a cramped interior and limited storage, and you’re reminded this beauty isn’t built for Costco runs.

Koenigsegg Agera RS: Overkill For The Office
One of the fastest cars in the world, but do you really need 270+ mph capability in bumper-to-bumper traffic? The Agera RS feels wasted crawling at 25 mph, and every speed bump becomes an obstacle worthy of a rally stage.

Ford GT (2005): Not As Practical As It Looks
Unlike its modern counterpart, the 2005 Ford GT feels old-school. The cabin is tight, the clutch is heavy, and there’s barely any rear visibility. It’s a race car in disguise that’s too compromised for coffee runs.

Pagani Huayra: Rolling Artwork, Living Headache
The Huayra is breathtaking—but it’s also fragile, low to the ground, and packed with delicate materials. Imagine stressing about scratching hand-laid carbon fiber every time you park at the grocery store. Gorgeous, but impractical.

Aston Martin Valkyrie: F1 Car In Disguise
Aston’s Valkyrie is a marvel of engineering, but sitting inside feels like climbing into a fighter jet cockpit. Zero luggage space, almost no ground clearance, and a noise level that makes phone calls impossible. It’s a hypercar, not a commuter.

Alfa Romeo 4C: Fun, But Fatiguing
The Alfa 4C is featherlight and fun—but daily life with no power steering, loud cabin noise, and a suspension that thuds on imperfect roads is exhausting. Charming on weekends, but not ideal for traffic jams.

De Tomaso Pantera: Exotic Looks, Old-School Hassles
The Pantera mixes Italian styling with American muscle—but it comes with old-school reliability headaches. Electrical issues, awkward ergonomics, and overheating make it a risky choice for daily duty.
Lamborghini Murciélago: Exotic Drama, Everyday Pain
The Murciélago is stunning, but driving it every day is like wrestling a bull—literally. The clutch is heavy, the gearbox clunky, and visibility so poor you’ll back out of driveways in fear. Gorgeous in the garage, miserable in rush hour.

Dream Cars, Daily Nightmares
Supercars are meant to thrill, not to be practical. While they dominate posters and YouTube videos, living with them every day is a different story. Between reliability concerns, unforgiving clutches, laughable storage, and bone-rattling suspensions, these machines are reminders that sometimes the fantasy is better left untouched.
