FASTEST PRODUCTION CAR REMADE

You have all heard of the Bugatti Veyron, the monster which has reached the speed of 407 kmph claiming to be the fastest production car on earth. However, american manufacturer Shelby has stolen the title by producing the Ultimate Aero which does 411 kmph. The Germans had to show that they truly owned the road and they did it by producing this monster called the "SuperSport". This car was made with the purpose to be the undisputed fastest production car ever made. The Super Sport will do 0 to 60 in 2.5 seconds like an ordinary Veyron however, it will reach the top speed of 415 kmph. The Super Sport has 1200hp, 200 more than the ordinary Veyron. For the Super Sport to reach such a speed they had to redesign the body (as you can see in the picture). With the new super body comes a super high price, up from $1.6 million to $2.5 million and if the price looks unbelievable to you a set of tires for the Super Sport costs around $32000. 


All said and done the Bugatti Super Sport is the ultimate super car for the rich, but it is the real speed demon and  it was proved by one man  Pierre Henri Raphanel the official test driver for Bugatti. He not only reached the top speed of 415 kmph but crossed it and touched the top speed of 431 kmph.
