My Ride: Mini Cooper
It has won the fastest car on the planet and also it has won the ugly fastest car on the planet too 
I had never like this car from when it came out.
7.0-liter Chevy small-block V8 with twin turbochargers with 1600 hp
three-speed sequential gearbox,
while six-piston AP Racing calipers gripping 14.2-inch discs handle the stopping power.
60 miles-per-hour in 2.1 seconds
to 100 mph in 4.5 seconds
0-100-0 sprint in 8.8 seconds.
Nine minutes of fuel is all it can carry at those rates
$3 million each
This car must have the lowest spec for a super car

My thought exactly Gene!! I was going to say if they were looking to drop a little weight from the current vehicle set-up, get a new driver...

Who cares if its ugly, although I don't agree. You have 1600 HP and 0-60 in 2 seconds, everyone looking at the car will see a blur!

You're right, being a blur may be in this car's favor!
What boggles the mind is the american term "7.0-liter Chevy small-block V8" small? SMALL?
