2012 Top Ten Fastest Cars in the World
2012 Top Ten Fastest Cars in the World
1. Bugatti Veyron Super Sport: 267 mph, 0-60 in 2.4 secs. Aluminum, Narrow Angle 8 Liter W16 Engine with 1200 hp, base price is $2,400,000. Although the Bugatti Veyron lost the title to SSC Ultimate Aero on March 2007, Bugatti challenge the record in Germany on July 10, 2010 with the new 2010 Super Sport Version and the Veyron once again claims the title of the fastest car in the world at 267 mph. The original Bugatti Veyron has a top speed of 253 mph, priced at $1,700,000 and equipped with 1001 hp.
2. Hennessey Venom GT: 260 mph, 0-60 in 2.5 seconds, has a 6.2-liter LS9 Turbocharged V8 Twin Turbo V8 Engine producing 1200 hp, has a price tag of $950,000. The Venom GT has yet to be tested and proven, but could possibly hit a top speed of 275 mph. This might just be the Veyron Super Sport's closest competitor!
2. Koenigsegg Agera R: 260 mph, 0-60 in 2.9 secs. 5.0-liter V8 Engine with twin turbo's, housing 1099 hp. Base price is $1,600,000. If you're into snow sports, the Agera R can be fitted with a Ski Box as well as winter tires, not that I would take one on a ski trip or anything like that. While the Agera R has a massive theoretical top speed, the current tested top speed is 260 mph. Expect this snow car to be the Bugatti's arch enemy for the next 5 years.
3. SSC Ultimate Aero: 257 mph, 0-60 in 2.7 secs. Twin-Turbo V8 Engine with 1183 hp, base price is $654,400. Tested in March 2007 by Guinness World Records, The SSC Ultimate Aero was the fastest car in the world from March 2007 to July 2010. On March 2011, the Koenigsegg Agera R also surpassed it, forcing this American made car to the #3 spot. Shelby SuperCars will continue their quest to reclaim the fastest car title, and their new SSC Tuatura might do the job (we'll just have to wait).
4. Saleen S7 Twin-Turbo: 248 mph, 0-60 in 2.8 secs. Twin Turbo All Aluminum V8 Engine with 750 hp, base price is $555,000. Smooth and bad-ass. It will make you want to show it off non-stop.
5. Koenigsegg CCX: 245 mph, 0-60 in 3.2 secs. 90 Degree V8 Engine 806 hp, base price is $545,568. Made in Sweden, it is the older brother of the Agera R, only losing to 4 other supercars in the world.
6. McLaren F1: 240 mph, 0-60 in 3.2 secs. BMW S70/2 60 Degree V12 Engine with 627 hp, base price is $970,000. The fastest car in the 20th century with doors that looks like bat wings. Maybe Batman needs to order one and paint it black
7. Gumpert Apollo: 224 mph, 0-60 in 3.0 secs, 4.2 liter V8 Engine that houses 650 hp. Base price: $450,000. Gumpert claims that the Apollo was designed such that it could drive upside-down in a tunnel with speeds at 190 mph or above. Of course, no one has tested this yet.
8. Noble M600: 223 mph, 0-60 in 3.7 secs. Twin-turbocharged 4.4-liter V8 Engine with 650 hp. Base price is $330,000. The Noble M600 also happens to be a very cool car. Its inconspicuous design sports a slender and contoured body which does not scream out for attention at every second of the day.
9. Lamborghini Aventador: 217 mph, 0-60 in 2.9 secs. V12 Engine with 700 hp, base price is $379,700. According to Lamborghini, Aventador is the name of a Bull that entered into battle at the Saragossa Arena on October 1993. This is the fastest bull in the world!
9. Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster: 217 mph, 0-60 in 3.4 secs. Twin turbocharged AMG V12 engine that produces 678 hp. Base price is $1,850,000. The Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster is a limited-edition, with five ever produced. It is the quintessential exotic and exclusive supercar.
9. Ferrari Enzo: 217 mph, 0-60 in 3.4 secs. F140 Aluminum V12 Engine with 660 hp, base price is $670,000. Only 399 were ever produced; the price goes up every time someone crashes.
10. Ascari A10: 215 mph, 0-60 in 2.8 secs. 5.0 litre BMW V8 S62 Engine with 625 hp. Base price: $650,000. The company planned to produce 50 of these supercars at its factory in Banbury, England.
10. Pagani Zonda F: 215 mph, 0-60 in 3.5 secs. Mercedes Benz M180 V12 Engine with 650 hp, base price is $667,321. With a V12 motor, this baby can do much better.
2. Hennessey Venom GT: 260 mph, 0-60 in 2.5 seconds, has a 6.2-liter LS9 Turbocharged V8 Twin Turbo V8 Engine producing 1200 hp, has a price tag of $950,000.

This HDD dock lets you hook up 2.5 inch and 3.5 inch SATA II drives has a card reader and two USB ports. It also features a one button backup facility. It ranges at 1,924 INR and spotted at ebay.in
2.usb pencil sharpener-rs.420
There’s something so charming about a handful of perfectly sharpened pencils lying in a row on your desk, isn’t it? But if you don’t want to spend hours sharpening them, get this USB pencil sharpener for a whopping 420 bucks.
3.usb mini ffridge-rs.863
This useful contraption isn’t much of a cooler; we’d rather call it a chillness maintainer. The thermometer pegs its cooling ability at 14 degree, and it only holds one can. But with this device a cold drink that you’d usually gulp down can now be nursed at ease, even in our perpetually sweltering summer temps!
4.usb warmer-rs.250
If we put a USB fridge in here, then we simply have to put in a USB warmer for our readers from the cooler regions. What is better about this is that we have an inbuilt 4 ports USB hub too. You can even shove it underneath your seat as a butt warmer. Though we wouldn’t ask you to bring this warmer to your ..ahh.. sensitive regions but it’s best for your cup of coffee.
5.10-in-1 usb charger with car
adaptor-rs.255
You must have some across multi device USB chargers before, but his one has a car adaptor as well. So, you can use it at home or on the go. Also with it, you can use it to charge your PSP, Motorola, Nokia, Sony Ericsson, LG and your iPod.
6.Usb mini vaccum cleaner-rs.80
This doesn’t have much suction to boast of but if you are a sticker for desk hygiene and can’t tolerate even one speck of dust on your precious devices, you may consider getting a USB vacuum cleaner. We bought one for 80 bucks at Lamington Rd. and tried it out. Unfortunately, it couldn’t pick up little bits of paper. If you do manage to find one that is powerful enough, then it would be quite a useful gadget to have lying around. Dust is gone!
7.Usb massager-rs.150
Long hours at your computer can take its toll on your eyes, neck and everything else that moves. At such times a USB massager can be of great relief. This is not to be confused with a masseuse; no one’s going to pop out of the device once you plug it in to give you a nice back rub. If not for massages, it does make for great office pranks. Slip it underneath your co-worker’s chair cushion and watch the laughter flow.
8.Laptop cooling pad-rs.150
Laptop cooler is nice investment if you happen to be one of those unfortunate souls who got themselves a laptop that tends to overheat a lot. Some coolers do have the option of adjusting the height and inclination to increase air flow but that can only help a little, having an overheated laptop for extended periods can increase significant damage in the long term. So do yourself a favor and get a good cooler for your laptop.
9.Complete usb accessory travel
kit
Deep breath, here we go – stereo earphones and microphone, multiple USB A to A, firewire to six pin, RJ11 Cable, USB A/M to USB A/Male, USB A/M to USB B/Male connector, retractable USB mouse, four ports hub, RJ45 to USB… ok, we’ve not run out of breath and there are six other accessories to go in this USB Swiss Knife.
10.3-in-1 usb mouse pad & numpad
You can embed it onto your bunker entry point as a password key in device. Stupidity apart, this is indeed a neat gadget, especially if your activities include number punching at a ridiculous pace and you have to make do with a laptop whose numpad we all know requires the Fn key pressed down to be functional and isn’t exactly well aligned. There’s also a Backspace key and custom key that puts in three zeros at once. Accountants will treasure this for sure.
