HENNESSEY VENOM GT
Somehow they managed to install a huge engine into a small, lightweight car, and pushed the limits of automotive performance. With the body shell of a Lotus Exige and an eight-cylinder, 6,200-cc, 1,200-horsepower, twin-turbocharged engine and a six-speed manual transmission driving the rear wheels of a 2,700-pound car, it is not difficult to understand how, with a power to weight ratio of nearly 1:2.25, it recorded a top speed of 270.49 mph in February 2014 on the Kennedy Space Center shuttle landing strip, making it one of the fastest production cars, if not in fact the fastest, in the world.
Production is on a small scale for now, just 10 vehicles per year. As of August 2014, 16 of the 29 produced Venom GTs were sold.
