The Most Outrageous Cars on the Road

If you think of a car as just a way to get from point A to point B, you’re definitely not valeting one of these. Check out some of the most impressive wheels out there, along with stats (and price tags) that’ll blow you away.

1) Koenigsegg CCX

Top Speed: 245 mph

Horsepower: 795 hp

Torque: 679 lb-ft

The Koenigsegg CCX makes the Batmobile look clunky. Considering there were only 14 of them made between 2006-2010 (less than the number of mistresses Tiger Woods had during the same period), owning this rare model earns serious bragging rights.

2) Bugatti Veyron

Top Speed: 253.81 mph

Horsepower: 1,200 hp

Torque: 1,106 lb-ft

Let’s put it this way – you could buy around 42,500 Blu-Ray box sets ofFast & Furious1-6 – or have your own Bugatti Veyron … for a mere $1.7 million.

3) EcoJet

Top Speed: Over 200 mph

Horsepower: 650 hp

Torque: 583 lb-ft

When you think of badass celebs, late-night talk show host Jay Leno probably isn’t the first guy on your list. But he had some pretty hardcore ideas when he built this concept car – especially when he put a sports piston engine (the same kind you’d find in a helicopter) into the EcoJet, making it 5 times faster than a speeding rabbit.

4) Zenvo ST1

Top Speed: 233 mph

Horsepower: 1,250 hp

Torque: 1,050 lb-ft

The torque of this car is about the same as the weight of one fast-moving whale testicle.

5) BMW i8

Top Speed: 160 mph

Horsepower: 231 hp

Torque: 236 lb-ft

If you’re into saving the world, this car is pretty metal; it gets 112 mpg.

6) Leblanc Mirabeau

Top Speed: 230.02 mph

Horsepower: 700 hp

Torque: 626.9 lb-ft

One of the only race cars to also be street legal, this car’s torque weighs the same as the average Mako shark speeding at you.
