Concept? That's a production car, already on the streets. The 2005 Ford GT.

I dunno much about cars but i thought the bugatti veyron was the fastest car in the world now or hasnt it been released yet... cant imagine a car topping these stats



# A W-16 engine that can produce 1,001 horsepower
# A top speed of 250+ mph (400+ kph)
# A zero-to-60 time of three seconds
# A zero-to-180 time of 14 seconds
# A price tag somewhere in the $1 million range.

they still havent delivered any to the consumers. they had a problem with the aerodynamics, because its pretty unstable at those speeds. So they are testing models with a wing, but then that drops it below the speed record...so they arent actually finished yet.

colonelcrisp: i dont understand why the Enzo is now not a production car. Yes you have to have previously owned 2 ferrari's to get your hands on one, but that doesnt mean its not open to the general public. You can go get yourself two ferrari's and then buy one(used now).

i think we really do differ when it comes to what we think a production car. And as for the Mclaren, what do you say about its racing past...it used to compete against the Porsche 911 GT1, Mercedes CLK GTR, and the like...

Interesting...but can it beat this baby?

haha...it only takes 600bhp to get up to 200+mph, but it takes 105,000hp to get up to 700+mph! stupid exponentially increasing drag! lol

VAG can't get the Veyron to work properly. I saw this on a British car website a few months back, it outlines the Veyron's problems perfectly.

134,995 US, if i recall correctly.

too bad the ford gt has had so many recalls already.

i know very well how diff engines work however its ghey to get into a pissing match as to what was used to get xx time or xx mph.
