If you follow the automotive industry even casually, the death of the naturally aspirated V8-powered performance car isn't a surprise. Emissions and fuel economy needs mean turbochargers, superchargers are becoming the norm, even on big V8s.

Even though the naturally aspirated V8's death isn't a shock, it's still quite jarring to see just how few performance cars still offer them. You'll notice that not a single German or British car is on this list, as the lovely Aston Martin V8 Vantage was just replaced with a new model, powered by an AMG twin-turbo V8. We didn't include cars that aren't for sale quite yet, which means the new TVR Griffith and Brabham BT-62 will need to wait for inclusion.

Considering many of these cars on the list will end production in the next few years, we as car enthusiasts need to celebrate the N/A V8-powered performance car before it's possibly relegated to history.
