While gas prices continue to go up and the economy continues to go down, some could care less and would rather buy the fastest gas-guzzling cars on the road no matter how much they cost. Forbes has teamed up with Tom duPont to find the world’s fastest cars for their latest Top 10 list.
“A Bugatti test driver took a $100 bill and plastered it on the dashboard,” recalls duPont, who was invited to strap into the passenger seat for a demonstration drive. “He told me I could have it if I could grab it once we took off.”
As many of you know the amazing Bugatti Veyron goes from 0-60 in 2.5 seconds with a top speed of 253mph.
“The car accelerates so fast that you can’t touch [the $100 bill],” he said. “You can’t move your hands.”

Re: Top 10 World’s Fastest Cars

I agree with the list, but something holds me back & keeps telling me to consider Ssc Ultimate Aero as a kit-car ...!
