The Lamborghini Murcialago

The Lamborghini Murcielago

Built in 2001 the Lamborghini came up with one of there most expensive cars. Even more expensive than the Reventon. This car starts at $6 million dollars. But it wouldn't be a Lamborghini if it wasn't fast.With a 6.5 liter V-12 engine, and speeds of 209 M.P.H. In my life i have only seen one of these. Thought the world only 4000 were made. Now that might sound like allot but remember there is close to 3 trillion people in the world. To help cool this monster to air vents open up once the car is going 70 M.P.H. to flow air to the engine and breaks.

The Chrysler Four-Twelve

     This is the Chrysler Four-Twelve one of the cars that nobody knows about. I saw this car when i was looking at pictures for the Ferrari GTO. I had never even heard of this car before but it was beautiful. Normally i don't have to do that much research for the cars i post on here but this one was an exception. This car was put to make by Chrysler in 2003 and finally after numerous tests they came out with this. The Four-Twelve has an aluminum V-12 in its rear. The 6 liter V-12 is equip ted with four supper chargers and is one of the lightest engines in the automotive industry. With 850 HP going form 0-60 in 2.2 seconds. This vehicle has a top speed of 248 MPH easily beating Ferrari's and Lamborghini's. Surprisingly this vehicle is only $600,000 not that the average person has that much to spend. This vehicle quickly has become my favorite.

The Ferreri 599 GTO

The 2011 Ferrari 599 GTO
     This new version of the 2007 GTO is leading the way in the Ferrari family. This vehicle has a 6 liter V12 with 650 HP and 8250 RPM. Ferrari claims that it is one of the fasts road cars yet. It dose look fast but then again not as fast as a Lamborghini. As I have learned more about this car and Ferrari I am starting to doubt the Legendary Murcialago. With this hunk of steel it can go 0-60 in 3.3 seconds and it can reach speeds of up to 208 MPH. This vehicle is a luxury car at its best.


This is a link to a video showing the Ferrari 599 gto on a closed track

Lamborghini Reventon

When Lamborghini decided to make yet another one of there expensive multi millon dollar cars they dicided to go with sutulty this time. Well you can see how that worked out for them. The Lamborghini Reventon is anything but suddel. This V12 can reach speeds of 212 M.P.H. and it is sill street leagal. Only 20 cars were sold to the public. This vehicle had a starting price of 1.5million dollars. Most Reventons were auctioned off going for 5 million. Another thing about the Revento is once your inside it you feel like your flying a modern jet fighter. The Revento raced a Tornado jet, it was ahead almost all of the race until the end of the runway when the jet finally cought up. The hud is another thing, it truly dose look like a jet.

1970 Dodge Challenger

The 1970 Dodge is one of americas most known early muscle cars. This car was offered with a V6 for $20,000 or a V8 for $30,000. Most people you can guess went with the V6 becuse of prices but even with a V6 engine this beast could reach speeds of 130 M.P.H. This in my opinion is my new favorite car after learning alot about it you can easily tell that this car would trample the Chevelle. The people that did have the money would buy the V8 R/T supercharged Hemi. Now days this wonderfull car sells for $50 to $60,000 depending on the condition. Some people have converted the Challenger to a drag racing car with a V12 and 600 HP, thats of course if you have $100,000 to waste. Dodge has just recently come out with a new version of the Challenger the V6 2012. This is the new Challenger alot more modern but still has the same bulky American muscle to it.

The big black carbon fiver vents arnt just for looks they create the path for air to travel to the rear carbon fiber breaks as well as the monster engine. The R8 is surprisingly all wheel drive and houses the engine in the back

Aston Martin One-77

The Aston Martion One-77 is a two seat two door coupe like most all Aston Martins. It has a carbon fiber monocoque structure, which makes it lighter and stronger. This amazing vehical has hand crafted aluminum panels that make up the One-77's body. Inside of this luxurious car is a monster of an engine. This sports car is powered by a alloy quad overhead camshaft, 48 vavle, 7312 cc, V12 engine. To have an idea of this monster normal sports cars like a mustang are only a V6, with the  One-77 thats twice the horse power. On a closed track the Aston Martion One-77 reached speeds of up to 220 M.P.H. and that of course is after the driver disided to back off. Heres a link for more information and for a better view of the

Peugeot 908




This is the Peugeot 908 mad for Grand Prix racing. This is the newest model of the 908 mad in 2011 and can reach speeds of up to 215 M.P.H. This car is mad strictly for track racing. The creators spent millions of dollars and hundreds of hours making this vehicle as areo dynamic as possible. The design allows air to flow into several small vents throughout the car that lead air to the engine to cool it down. They also have several leading to the cockpit so the driver dosent heat up. The enormous spoiler on the back keeps the car stable and keeps it from roiling at speeds of 215 M.P.H around turns and hills. The spoiler apply force of 900 lbs. so theoretical this car would be able to drive upside down. Made by France this 12 cylinder monster simply sounds like a souped up vacuum cleaner. This is because it only takes deical. For 24 hour racing the engine has 4 water coolers surrounding the engine and 2 carburetors.

McLeren F1

The McLaren F-1 is a super car designed and built by McLaren Automotive. The McLaren can reach speeds of 245 M.P.H. The F-1 looks like a two seat exotic sports car, when really its designed strictly for grand pre racing. It only has one seat that is positioned in the middle of the car. This is so the driver can evenly judge each side as it races past other cars on closed tracks.

the chevelle


The Chevelle is produced by Chevrolet. The Chevelle is one of Chevrolet most successfully line of cars starting with the 1964 Chevelle nova and ending the production of chevelles in 1978. The 1969 chevelle is one of Americas most recognized muscle cars. The 69 Chevelle was the first of its kind to offer a 396 horse power engine. The looks of the Chevelle didn't change much from the 1968 but few some changes were made. The 69 got new taillights and a new range of body models. The Chevelle came in a two door fast back, a coupe, a four door sedan, a two and four door convertible, and station wagons. In my personal opinion the two door fast back that you see is the best of all Chevelles.
