eBay Find of the Day: World's Fastest Production Car
Click above for a high-res gallery of the SSC Ultimate Aero Twin-Turbo
You've always had the opportunity to buy the world's fastest car, but now you can buy THE world's fastest car. The actual SSC Ultimate Aero TT that set the Guinness-certified top speed record for a production car is up for auction on eBay with your name on it. The 2007 model comes with Palladium paint and black Alcantara interior, nav system, 10-speaker audio/DVD system, back-up camera, and power everything. Oh, did we mention the 1183 horsepower twin-turbo V8 mounted behind the seats?
Sure, the 2009 model has 100+ more horsepower and a theoretical top speed of 270 mph, but that's yet to be verified, making this very 2007 model still the world's fastest production car. At just over $150,000 the reserve has not yet been met, but the minimum bid is surely quite a bit less than the base price of a Bugatti Veyron or Koenigsegg CCX.

It may be cheaper than a Veyron, but it looks it. That interior, those Diablo knock-off looks; it screams "kit car".

Exactly. It looks like I could build it for less.

You took the words out of my mouth. You get what you pay for.

Although it offers amazing performance, this car lacks the exterior appeal that I like in supercars. I have never seen one in real life so my comment might not be 100% accurate.

I've seen a few around town (I live in the Tri-Cities, WA, where the SSC is built).
The pictures don't really do it justice. It really is a beautiful car in person.

You may see these cars on e-bay all the time, but this is the actual record holder, for what it's worth, which apparently is around $150K.
