Contrary to what you have all been saying, I don't like the look of the car.

Hennessey SRT-10 Viper Venom 1000 Coupe has 410 km/h top speed http://www.supercars.net/cars/3241.html Is this car street legal?
Edit: http://www.hennesseyperformance.com/...ctionReq=Where
The fastest and most powerful limited-edition street car in the world
So this 911 turbo will try to beat hennessey not veyron.

Looks great although the writing on the side makes it look ugly.

As for side mirror - on the top pic, on the left front wheel arch - is that the petrol cap or where the side mirror flips out?

I dont see the point when it comes to this special built car. The turbo lag must be terible and it offers nowhere near the refinement of the bug. Fast as it may be, it isnt the same kind of car as the veyron, and shouldnt be compared directly.

I don't trust a word of what hennessey advertises. It may be faster, but I don't think its been tested yet.
