The fastest cars you’ve never heard of
Panoz Abruzzi – 200mph-plus

Batman's weekend run-around is going to divide opinion in the looks department. Panoz do V8 muscle very well - so well in fact, that its successful Le Mans cars all used the ol' American favourite configuration. The Abruzzi gets a 650hp unit and despite that gaping mouth, should be good for over 200mph.

You know, I just looked through the cars and I actually had not heard of ANY of them !.
As a petrol head this astonishes me and begs the question, why is the likes of Top Gear so narrow focused ?.
Look !, another Ferrari shaped like folded paper, and another Porche, just like every other one but with the edges filed off !.
Lets have some of these beasties on the show, something other than the big few.
Duhhh !.
Peace.

I say this with respect to MSN but when the test was done the Hennessey did not hit top speed on that test of 265.7mph. Hennessey got the car to 265.7mph on a 2 mile strip at an American airforce base and they boasted that the Buggatti would need a 4 miles track to achieve such a speed and they hope to test the top speed when they get a bigger strip of tar. You can search for it on Youtube.
