anyone see the worlds new fastest car?? beat out the bugatti veyron and was wind tunnel tested at 273mph (455kph)
they tested it on the road and hit 257mph and then ran out of road, they should take it to the volkswagon track and see how fast it can go
|

not only did it break the Veyron's record for fastest car ever (and by a good amount to)
it beat the Enzo's record through the slalom course
haha so not only is it a rocket, it can turn too

Are you referring to this car?
Shelby Super Cars
So this the Guinness' World's Fastest Production Car. Beautiful.
In connection with this, I also discovered that the World's fastest limo is a Ferrari 360 Modena converted to a Limo.

Ferrari limo
170 miles per hour.
