The Bugatti Veyron 16.4 is a mid-engine sports car produced by Volkswagen AG subsidiary Bugatti Automobiles SAS. It is the quickest accelerating and decelerating street-legal production car in the world, and it was the world's fastest car until it was beaten by the SSC Ultimate Aero TT.

Powered by a 1,001 PS (987 hp/736 kW) W16 engine [2], it is able to achieve an average top speed of 408.47 km/h (253.81 mph) [3]. The car reached full production in September 2005, and is handcrafted in a factory Volkswagen built near the former Bugatti headquarters in Château St Jean in Molsheim (Alsace, France). It is named after French racing driver Pierre Veyron, who won the 24 hours of Le Mans in 1939 while racing for the original Bugatti firm.Bugatti Veyron (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bugatti_Veyron)

I placed my order, but there's a long lead time. Oh, well.

And speaking of the Aero TT ...

The SSC Ultimate Aero sets the benchmark for supercars today. Achieving tremendous power via its twin turbo V-8 engine, it produces 1,183 horsepower and 1094 ft.-lbs. of torque making the Ultimate Aero the world’s most powerful production car. Combining this proprietary power plant with a lightweight, aerodynamic body and the best handling systems available SSC delivers a vehicle that not only eclipses all other cars but stands OFFICIALLY as the "World’s Fastest Production Car". Simply put, there is no other production car that can match the performance of the Ultimate Aero.WELCOME TO SHELBY SUPERCARS (http://www.shelbysupercars.com/)

[BabyBeastie]

The SSC looks like a Lamborghini Diablo.

[DoctorDoom]

At those speeds, streamlining is everything, so by necessity design variations are limited.

I always had a woody for the Vector (http://www.vectorsupercars.com/index1.html).

But my wallet was more inclined toward the Toyota PM.

Oh I think I like this one. Very lightweight. Slices clean through the air, but the ride is a bit bumpy.
