Well the Bugatti is still an amazing car. Seriously, quadruple turbos? Yeah. Scary fast.

honestly though, a W16 engine?? ridiculous. i still wont how they have 16 cylinders and only get 1001 bhp out of it...oh well.

my favorite super cars are the McLaren F1 and the Saleen S7.

The McLaren becuase its just a baller *** car that broke the record and will be remembered over any of the cars breaking it now.

And the Saleen because it has a chevy big block that sounds just awesome.

It can be used as a daily driver, it's reliable at that 1001 hp.

The McLaren is a pretty nice car but the Saleen S7 should just stay in people's garages. I don't think I've seen any other car that costs so much break so much. It's a turd without question. The guy I know that bought the Bugatti, had a Saleen S7 and it blew up on him within months of owning it.

Cadillac also has a concept with a W16 in it. And it also has just over 1000 hp. Its called the Cadillac Sixteen. So it must be pretty common to only get that much hp out of the newer engines.

Even though it's 16 cylinders, each cylinder isn't that big so it just dont have the displacment. It's not like they tag, 2 of the 5.4L together.

Porsche gets 600+ hp out of a 4cyl but each piston/cylinder is about as big around as the size of a CD/DVD.

Sherman tanks also use 16 cyl, the block is only slightly longer and a lot taller than a norrmal 302 (5.0L) V8. So you know the cylinders arent very big around. But by multiplying the number of explosions per rpm, and the lengthened stroke, they get 1001 HP out of a Naturally asperiated engine running on pump gas.

The Ariel Atom is a pretty sweet ride. Not real practical though.
