The Fastest Cars In the World Of 2013
Here's a suggestion for the fastest cars of 2013. The list is from the executive director and editor of the site Total Car Score -Karl Brauer and includes currently available vehicles. TotalCarScore is one of the editions with the most extensive information and the most serious analyzes of currently sold machines. Brauer has not included in the rankings, cars offered in small amounts or only on demand. There are no representatives of companies that have less than 20 dealers worldwide. Here are his suggestions:
1. Bugatti Veyron Super Sport
Maximum speed of 268 miles (431.304 km / h) Engine - 8.0 liter, W16 with four turbines (1200 hp) Price - $ 2.4 million
2. Lamborghini Aventador LP700
Maximum speed - 217 miles (349.227 km / h) Engine - 6.5 liter, V12 (700 hp) Price - $ 376 000.
3. Ferrari F12 Berlinetta
Maximum speed - 211 miles (339.571 km / h) Engine - 6.3 liter, V12 (740 hp) Price - $ 343 385.
"F12 Berlinetta is not the fastest car of Ferrari, as that honor belongs to the model Enzo, which reached 217 miles - is the opinion of Brauer. - But we can confidently say that this is the most exotic car of Ferrari.
4. Ferrari FF
Maximum speed - 208 miles (334.743 km / h) Engine - 6.3 liter, V12 (651 hp) Price - $ 295 000.
5. SRT Viper
Maximum speed - 206 miles (331.524 km / h) Engine - 8.4 liter, V10 (649 hp) Price - $ 100 000.
"Dodge Viper was released in 1991, but no longer use this name and now is called STR, which is the sports division of Chrysler - says Bauer.
6. Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 (in this position are 2 cars)
Maximum speed - 205 miles (329.915 km / h), Engine - 6.2 liter, V8 (638 hp) Price - $ 110 000. "Corvette is the embodiment of the typical American sports car that has its iconic status since its release on the market in 1953 - explains Bauer and not only continues this tradition, but exceeds it as quality. Its engineering solutions are very brave, as those 638 hp make it the most powerful and rapid Chevroelet, ever produced. " The other 2 cars are:
Bentley Continental GT Speed - Maximum speed - 205 miles (329.915 km / h), Engine - 6.0 liter, W12 with 2 turbines (625 hp) Price - $ 234 000.

Maximum speed - 202 miles (325.087 km / h), Engine - 5.2 liter, V10 (570 hp), Price - $ 237 600. "When it comes to strength, speed and brilliance, Gallardo LP 570-4 Superleggera meet precisely these descriptions - is the opinion of Brauer. These 570 hp look quite impressive and are an excellent choice, especially for the wealthy fans of high speeds.
8. Ferrari 458 Italia
Maximum speed - 201 miles (323.478 km / h), Engine - 4.5 liter, V8 (570 hp) Price - $ 229 825. "Ferrari 458 Italia” returns the brand to its roots – explains Brauer. This model comes back to a time when the company has been producing exceptional sports cars.
