American supercar manufacturer Shelby Super Cars (SSC) is aiming to snatch the production world speed record from the 253mph Bugatti Veyron next week.
Seven years in the making, the company

 

good stuff. i wonder if it'll be $1,000,000 also.

 

I dont like the interior.. especially the vertical dash

 

Interior looks like crap. Horrible.

Otherwise, nice car.

 

I gaurantee they picked Elko county Nevada for the brothels, Inez house of love, man I gotta get back there........to see the car that is

 

that thing won't be 1/3rd the car that the veyron is.. especially with that dodge neon interior. Speed isn't everything.

 

That is one ugly SOB. The BV has little to fear...

 

So that's what happens when you install RSX headlights on a Diablo.

 

wow.
reminds me of 80's hyper cars.

 

SSC = Shelby Super Cars?

Is there any connection to Carroll Shelby? I did not know this was the actual name, nor am I aware of the company's history. Regarding the car itself, it's not the worst looking thing ever, but it's definitely not pretty, especially for the price. I will say I think the car is impressive for the fact that it's only 2800lbs with a TT V8 and creature comforts like navi and AC.

Whether it will hit anything close to the 273mph it's theoretically capable of (based on engineering projections) is highly in question at this point. I'm skeptical, but if they do it, then awesome.
