The Ultimate Car Showdown





A few years back Car & Driver had a shootout with the best of the best. The magazine rented out a airport runway and had a race from 0-200 mph, a feat unimaginable a few years prior. These were the contenders:
  • 2006 Lingenfelter Z06 Twin Turbo
  • 2005 Saleen S7 Twin Turbo
  • 2007 Heffner Lamborghini
  • 2006 Hennessey Venom 1000 TWIN TURBO
  • 2006 Heffner FORD GT1000TT


None of these cars had over 1000whp, and almost all of the cars had technical problems during the run. I think that the Car & Driver needs to have another 0-200mph shootout with the amazing cars that are out today. This is my dream list:
  • AMS Alpha 12 GTR-1350awhp
  • Twin Turbo Lamborghini Gallardo from Underground Racing-1550awhp
  • Twin Turbo Ford GT-1900whp
  • Bugatti SS-1200bhp
  • SSC Ultimate aero 2 Tuatara- 1350bhp
  • Switzer R1K GTR- 1250awhp
  • Ultima GTR- 1000whp
  • Koenigsegg Agera- 910bhp
Who do you think would win to 200mph?
