The Worlds Fastest Production Super Cars

                       
Over the years we have been blessed with some truly astonishing fast cars. From the 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO to the present day might of the Bugatti veyron, these super fast cars have been the envy of many and the true dream of some. These days super cars are blindingly quick with super cool cars such as the Koeinigsegg CCR and the Bugatti Veyron covering over a football pitch per second when flat out at full speed. These super fast cars will remain a pin up on the wall for most of us, unless you own an oil rig or won the lotto. If you are lucky enough to afford one of these awesome machines, or would just like to keep dreaming then we have composed a guide to some of the world's fastest production cars below.
McLaren F1:
Released in 1994 the McLaren F1 was the daddy of all super cars for over 10 years. It was the fastest road legal production car of all time before finally being knocked off the top spot by the Koeinigsegg CCR. The McLaren F1 is still regarded by many to still be the best super car of all time. Although over 15 years old the McLaren F1 still packs one hell of a punch with it's 6.1 L (6064 cc) V12 engine kicking out 627 horse power. The car has a central driving position making it feel more F1 like. And with an acceleration speed of 0-60 in 3.2 seconds and a top speed of 241 mph this is no slug.
Koeinigsegg CCR:
Then we have the Koeinigsegg CCS designed and manufactured in Angelholm, Sweden, 2004 this awesome looking machine holds the belt for knocking the McLaren F1 of its top spot. The Koeinigsegg CCS has a 6 speed manual transmission with an rpm of 6790. The engine is a 4.7 L ford modular V8 which drinks juice faster than an Arabian desert. The Koeinigsegg CCS has a top speed of 242 mph and does 0-60 in 3.2 seconds.
Enzo Ferrari:
Named after the big man of Ferrari himself expectations were high when this beast was announced in 2003. And I'm pleased to say that it has lived up to them. With its F1-style sequential shift transmission and carbon fiber body this car too has F1 credentials. The enzo has a 6.0L V12 engine which churns out 651 horsepower and does 0-60 in 3.6 seconds with a high rpm rate of 7800 gives it a top speed of 218 mph.
Bugatti Veyron:
The Bugatti veyron is a monster of a vehicle, costing around $12.000.000 to produce the first one! The Bugatti has an incredible 6 radiators, that's more than your average house! The Bugatti smashed the record for the world's fastest production car in October 2005 reaching 253 mph! 0-60 in 2.43 seconds. The engine is a massive 8.0L quad turbo-charged W16.
SSC Ultimate Aero TT:
Manufactured by Shelby super cars the Ultimate Aero TT is the current fastest production car in the world, beating the mighty veyron by 2.5 mph. With an incredible 254 mph as the top speed this will take some beating. The Ultimate aero TT has 1,183 bhp and accelerates from 0-60 in 2.78 seconds. no doubt that this is an awesome American masterpiece!
So there you have it 5 of the worlds fastest production cars. Some people though have gone to the extremes of tuning up their Skyline or Supra or other up gradable sports cars into 1000 bop monsters, but you can find information on fast import cars on the web. Their is a lot more dream machines that I have not mentioned such as the Lamborghini Diablo, the Zonda F and the Porsche 911 GT3.
