SSC Ultimate Aero II

http://www.autoblog.com/2010/10/10/s...ages-and-info/

Ultimate Aero is powered by a 6.8-liter twin-turbocharged V8 that can scream up to a 9,000 rpm redline. Power? 1,350 horses, every last drop of which will be needed to hit the targeted top speed of 275 mph. Obviously, this rocketship won't be available for short money; it's going to cost $970,000.

Not feeling the tail fins at all. Possibly there for yaw stability at high speed? Wheel design could use some work, IMO they look a little too plain compared to the rest of the car, which looks positively jet fighter-like.

Well James Bond 007 learned from his Turbo Espirit that fins would be helpful for wet work.
