Trev (427)

1244356 2011-11-20 02:58:00 Still not the fastest car in the world though.

1244358 2011-11-20 19:09:00 The SSC Ultimate Aero has had >1280bhp since 2009, so 1250 isn't a record or anything :P
And for all that power, it doesn't use it very well. The Aventador has some 550hp less, but will do 0-100 fractionally quicker, hits 200 in pretty much identical time, and tops out only some 15mph lower, and is 1/4 the price - plus it wears the raging bull badge, so I know which I'd rather :P

Actually looks surprisingly GTR-like from the side profile.

Agreed. And stig drove the Aventador faster around the top gear track than the Bugatti Veyeron

1244361 2011-11-21 02:21:00 I think this might be faster here (http://www.bloodhoundssc.com/)

Maybe even this one Diesel powered (en.wikipedia.org)
