Motha f'ing fast!
The world's fastest street-legal car - BusinessWeek.com - MSNBC.com
Aerodynamically capable of over 270mph! This is fucking GTP territory folks! 0-60 in 2.78 seconds! This car just knocked down my kit cars ego a little bit

When James May(Captain Slow) from Top Gear took the Veyron to 253mph, he not only said it was easy to control, he said that it was totally uneventful. VW spent almost every penny they had to perfect it and.. AND.. make it reliable. I have a feeling this car is just another typical American piece of work, it was put into production way too soon. I can't wait to see how many people die from this thing going up in flames and/or falling apart.
Another thing, there's no way this car will hit 275mph showroom stock. I have a feeling it won't ever, even with modification. People just don't understand aerodynamics, all people think about is power. Welcome to America, where quality comes second to 'We're the fastest!' Fucking retards.

They said in the article that it was aerodynamically capable of 273 according to NASA wind tunnel testing, to the aerodynamics are why they are saying it is capable, not just throwing more power at it
 Definitely a good deal for the money as a supercar, compared to others in its range

^^ This is why street cars do not excite me anymore. Race cars are far too cool.
More importantly, the GTPs werent build for top speed and they're still capable of 280mph. They can do that with all the aero planed out but dialed in they were pulling 4+ lateral Gs in corners = sweet = Konigsegg Who?
