    It will handle better, but will it go faster than them? Suspension and tires are a huge factor in this, not just downforce.

    The Vector figures and write-up are pure fiction

    All of the above except for the Vector. Nothing personal Prius, I just never liked that car. The CGT and McLaren SLR should have been on the list I think

    For me it would be the S7, cause the Zonda isn't there.
    Did anybody was there?

    prius, correction dude!

    McLaren F1 LM is 75kgs lighter than the standard F1, striped out interior, and further lightened engine & tranmission components. 50 horsepower more than the standard F1, and the LM is said to do 360km/h which is around 220Mph.

    You just don't get cars right, do you? Why has Gordon Murray tried so hard to make this car so light? He's stupid and you are the clever engineer?
    You can be annoying with this kind of threads. But what annoys me more about you is the fact you say wrong things like you are saying something fantastic. Read a bit about cars before you come out here saying a Dodge Ram is the best cornering car in the world...

    hey, prius
    the MC12 will go from 0-100km/h in 3.7 and will top out at 340km/h. This car is basically based on Enzo platform.
