Buggati Veyron Super Sport

Bugatti Veryon SS, the 1200 hp monster, is one of the greatest modern day mechanical achievements. Unfortunately it has one of the biggest pricetags too. Starting at $2,700,000 you too can buy a Veyron SS and experience world's fastest production vehicle, though with a limited top speed of 415 km/h (257.91 mph).

Although the top speed of a Buggati Veyron 16.4 Super Sport is 431.072 km/h (267.856 mph), a record set by Pierre-Henri Raphanel on July 4, 2010, it is electronically limited to 415.07 km/h (257.91 mph) to protect the tires from disintegrating.
