Incredible car faster than the Veyron!

Never heard of this thing before:

Unparrelled Performance:
0-60: 2.78 seconds
73.1 mph in slalom
capable of 273 mph
1/4 mile: 9.9 seconds at 144 mph
Skidpad: 1.05 g
60 mph to 0 (braking): 103 feet

Officially the worlds fastest production car as verified by Guiness. 256 mph!

It weighs only 2750 lbs and has 1183 hp/1094 tq on pump gas!

Anyone know what it is? I will give you a few guesses.

To be honest i dont think the ssc ultimate aero is all that great. I do respect the fact that it holds the current record.

The buggati was designed to be a RELIABLE 250mph car. It can be driven day in and day out(even by your grandmother) and still make that 250mph run.

I dont think many other stock production cars can acheive this.

Oh and I forgot to say, the Ultima GTR currently holds the records for 0-100mph-0 and for 0-60mph. It also does the 1/4 mile in 9.9 seconds.

EDIT: Veyron is faster to 60

That car is made in the city that I was born in.

Top speed is 1 thing, but I wonder if it really gets there faster than a Veyron.

I'd love to see them go head to head on an airstrip.

Why wouldn't it? It has more horsepower and weighs like 1500 lbs less?

who knows. I guarantee you the Veyron has a lot more research in, I'd be willing to wager it has a much better drag coefficient.

Either way, I'd love to see them clash.
