2. Bugatti Veyron
Top Speed: 253 MPH
HP: 1,001 at 6000 RPM
The Veyron is fast but it's also heavy: 4,162 lbs isn't our idea of high-tech speed. It makes us feel like we're running a sprint race in a fat suit. Though enormous, performance is still incredible. 0-60MPH takes place in just 2.6 seconds and 0-120MPH in 7.3 seconds, making it the fastest accelerating production car in history.
Of course, all of that power doesn’t come cheap: the Veyron costs some $1.7 million in hard currency and untold amount of stress for one's driving record.
3. Koenigsegg CCX
Top Speed: 250 MPH
HP: 806 at 6900 RPM
The CCX (standing for Competition Coupe X, but also notes the company's 10th anniversary) is one of the more rarified exotics you'll ever see (or, not see: only 18 Koenigseggs were sold in all of 2009). 806 hp and 678 lb-ft seem to sell themselves, though. It's a pity only a few people will ever get to experience how the Dutch envision speed.
The speed numbers are wild: 0-60 in 3.2 seconds and a top speed of 250 mph. All the while, we believe the CCX is one of the most beautiful among the superexotics. It's also one of the most comfortable, too.
