The 2000 BMW Z8, the fastest BMW?

bmw, bmw car, bmw auto

Not counting concept cars like the Nazca, the 2000 BMW Z8 may be the fastest BMW ever produced.
Powered by a 4941 cc(4.9 L)V-8 engine producing 394 bhp, this BMW could cover the quarter mile in 12.6 sec at 112 mph.
It's zero to 60 was 4.2 seconds, and going into hyper drive, it could run 0 to 100 in 10.2 seconds.
The top speed is listed at 155 mph, but I'm guessing it's a tad higher, barring any electronic governors.
The price for blasting around the country side at warp speed?
Around $128,000.
That, of course, is not counting how high your automobile insurance would go up!
The car was featured in the James Bond movie The World Is Not Enough in 1999.

Jaguar XKR S, The World's Fastest Jaguar?

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

I know I've done a lot of Jaguars on here, but this is the Superman of Jags.
The Jaguar XKR S is powered by a 4.2 litre all aluminium four cam supercharged V8 engine that delivers around 420 horsepower.
That makes this cat run 60 in 5.2 seconds and gives it a top speed (electronically governed) of 174 mph.
That would make it the fastest Jaguar since the XJ220 supercar.
Unfortunately, The Jaguar XKR-S will be limited to only 200 cars in Europe.
But that's okay, it's retail is around £80,000.
No idea what that is in US dollars.

The Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

Is this the fastest Mercedes-Benz ever made?
Probably.
Is it the fastest automatic transmission car in the world?
Possibly.

The SLR (Sport, Leicht, Rennsport) is a limited run (about 500 cars a year) car developed by Mercedes-Benz and McLaren Automotive.
Is this car quick?
Well the power plant is a 5.4-litre (331.9 cu in), supercharged, all aluminum, single overhead camV8 engine.
This little technological marvel puts out around 626 bhp in a 3898 lb car!
In tests conducted by Car and Driver, this sleek little beauty hit 0 to 60 in 3.6 seconds.
The SLR then turned in a quarter mile time of 11.6 seconds at 125 mph.
When Road and Track tested it, they turned 0 to 60 in 3.5 seconds and pulled 0 to 100 mph in 7.5 seconds.
And I remind you, this is with an automatic transmission.

The price for blasting around in this little rocket?
It starts out at around $ 495,000.
Hey, you gotta pay if you wanna play.

The GT2 has a top end of around 204 mph.
This little rocket can also turn a quarter mile in approximately 11 seconds at 127 mph.
And this little baby retails for around $191,700.
