    Some Additions :



    1.> On Sept. 13, 2007, the Shelby SuperCars' Ultimate Aero became the fastest production car in the world. The event took place on a temporarily closed, two-lane stretch of public highway in Washington State. In accordance with Guinness World Records' strict policies, the car had to drive down the highway, turn around, and make a second pass in the opposite direction within one hour.

    The Ultimate Aero posted 257.41 mph on the first pass and 254.88 mph on the second for an average of 256.18 mph. Official data were collected via a GPS tracking system from Austrian data acquisition company Dewetron. Guinness World Records later verified data for an official top-speed announcement on Oct. 9, 2007. At that speed the Ultimate Aero broke the official record held by the Koenigsegg CCR (242 mph) and the unofficial record (253 mph) held by Volkswagen's (VLKAY) $1.6 million Bugatti Veyron (BusinessWeek, 9/17/07).


    And the car could go even faster. NASA's wind tunnel testing facility in Langley, Va., found the Ultimate Aero to be aerodynamically stable at speeds up to 273 mph. It just ran out of road. "If there was additional straight pavement on which to accelerate, the top speed would have been considerably higher, so if anyone challenges our record there is tons left on the table," says Chuck Bigelow, the brave soul who piloted the Ultimate Aero on its record-breaking run.


    2.> In the bond flick the Aston Martin had been heavily modded and was named "Vanish" by MI6 engineer "Q".

    #9 Lamborgini Murcielago is my favourite supercar.

    I drive mine on the weekends mostly.


    If I feel need for a bit more speed I take my fxx out for a spin.


    These are expensive so I don't drive them daily. My daily
    driver is a lowly Diablo.

    was drooling over the listings given at Motorcars of Las Vegas, NV Dealer Used Cars - Home. sigh.... i really like some of the classics they still have in mint condition, like the Dodge Charger and the Thunderbird convertible!

    and btw, the inside of the engine bay of the SSC Aero looks like alien technology, literally like the inside of an UFO!:47:

    :lol:

    let me share something with u guys. about a week ago i saw a car near my college. it looked like a chev camaro ss with the long hood space and all. the car even had a modded hood. but the name of the car was HM (Hindustan motors), the company behind ambassadors. they are also the current distributor for Lancer Evo and cedia cars. Anyway, at the back and side of the car, where car name is written, GT90 was written.
    Can anybody tell me what car it was ? With the HM logo it looked like a vintage car but it had the looks of a muscle car.

    Leo, with the HM logo I can only imagine someone's modified a Contessa to look like a Ford GT90 and put a salvaged badge on it.

    Not to say there AREN'T any classic muscle cars in India, there's several in Mumbai.

    there's a lot of exotic owners in my city...Bangalore baby!

    No money

    Loans are still not cheap and high down payment will reduce my liquidity. I want to buy a good car.
