12.9 litres, tiny 2 seater roadster?

they keep calling it the ultimate driving machine. don't get me wrong, i LOVE to go fast, but, a car that runs out of gas in 5 minutes if you're driving it at 80% power or more, is not the ultimate driving experience.

I stand around at gas pumps all day with my daily driver, don't need some limited edition nazi car for that.

Weineck says that the world’s most powerful, strongest and quickest accelerating road-legal car i

all those claims are quite wrong

there's several skylines, supra's and a few other bits that have considerably more HP and torque than that

also beating its 0-60 times and its top end isn't that hard since most super cars these days break those times just look at the nobles and ascari's that will do 3 and 3.3 seconds to 60mph or things like the veyron with 230mph + top end.

the old cobra's with just 450bph were almost impossible to handle putting that much power into what is essentially the same cobra body geometry is just asking for problems

i stand corrected the A10 is infact 2.8 seconds to 60

Ascari claims that the A10 is capable of a top speed of 215 mph (approximately 344 km/h) and a 0-60 acceleration time of 2.8 seconds.

check out the SSC Aero, they've got it up to 257 mph (414km/h). and yeah the veyron does 0-60 in 2.4.


that cobra is lame imo
