The Saleen S7 Twin Turbo

The limited-production, hand-built, high-performance Saleen S7 Twin Turbo was Saleen's first car not based on an existing design.
It was completely developed digitally using tools such as Unigraphics and Rhinoceros 3D.
It may have been born on a computer, but it came to life on the track.
The heart of the S7 is a 427.6 cu inch all-aluminum OHV V8 engine, upgraded with two Garrett turbochargers producing approximately 6 psi of boost.
This gives the S7 750 horsepower and 700 lb·ft of torque.
What does this translate into on the track?
0-60 mph in 3.2 seconds, 0-100 in 6.2 seconds and 0-200 mph (yes, 0-200) in 27 seconds.
This also allows the S7 to blast through the quarter mile in 10.6 seconds and gives it a top speed of 248 mph.
And get this, in 2006, Saleen offered an optional competition package for the S7 Twin Turbo that put the engine output up to 1000 horsepower!
How much will this land rocket set you back?
Around $585,296.

The World's Fastest Corvette

In a change from all the high dollar exotic cars I usually feature here, this is a high dollar exotic Chevrolet.
The Chevrolet Corvette C6 ZR1 may be the fastest Corvette ever built.
The ZR1 is powered by a modified LS3 (the LS9) that produces 638 hp and 604 ft.lbs.of torque.
This is largely due to the sixth-generation Eaton TVS R2300 roots 4-lobe supercharger with an intercooler that's mated to the LS9.

What does all this mean in a straight line?
Try 0 to 60 in 3.43 seconds with an estimated top speed of 210 mph.
The Vette can blast through the quarter mile in 10.988 seconds, at 135 mph.
The cost on this little number?
About $115,000.
Not bad compared to some of the other cars we've had on here.

SSC Ultimate Aero TT, Faster Than the Bugatti Veyron?

The SSC Ultimate Aero TT may be the only rival to the Bugatti Veyron.
In road tests, the SSC turned in a 254.88 mph top speed compared to the 253 mph of the Veyron.
But the Ultimate Aero accelerates from 0-60 mph in 2.78 seconds which is slower than the Veyron's 0-60 in 2.46 seconds.
The engine in the Ultimate Aero model is a supercharged 387.2 cu in (6.35 L) V8 engine rated at 1,183 bhp , with 1,094 ft·lb of torque.
Amazingly, the first production 2007 Ultimate Aero TT car was sold not in a show room, but on eBay for $431,100.
Yes eBay.
And I forgot to mention that the SSC Ultimate Aero TT is built by Shelby SuperCars.
And that NASA (yes NASA) put the car in a wind tunnel testing facility and proved that the SSC Aero could be aerodynamically stable enough to reach speeds up to 273 miles per hour.
And to be as Green as anyone else, this supercar will soon be available in an electrical version.
Of course this SSC will be the fastest electric car on the market, powered by a 500 horsepower electric motor. Yes I said a 500 horsepower ELECTRIC motor.
