Debaser, it's a Dodge Tomahawk. Four, independently suspended wheels and the (600bhp?) V10 engine from a viper. I saw a film of one wobbling around in a warehouse, and can't wait for someone to find the courage to go outside with it.
If I might be controversial for a moment, the Koenigsegg is a little porky and does in no way smoke the F1. The car has been out for a while now, and still no independently-verified top speed figure exists to my knowledge. To hit its own improbable, estimated top speed, the Veyron will require you first to pull over, phone Bugatti, and wait. A Bugattiman will arrive with four new wheels and tyres and discreetly fit them while you start psyching yourself up. F1, please |

I'll second the GT40 vote, though I would prefer one of the classic ones from Le Mans in the Gulf paint scheme. I get wood just thinking about that car.

As for me, I'll take a 1970 Dodge Coronet R/T Hemi. If I can't get one of the 13 that were made with the Hemi, I'll take a '67 GTO convertible with tripower engine. My uncle has one of those. |

The motorcycle above is a prototype Dodge Tomahawk! It sports the Viper v-10 engine and is supposed to go 300+ MPH but they haven't found anybody that will test it.
It is one of the most beautifully designed machines I have ever seen.

What's a Ford GT40? You mean the GT? :P
Anyways, those who like the Enzo and 959, a brake job for the Enzo is a nice 57k, while ONE wheel for the 959 is 20k. That being said, Koenigsegg hands down, with the S7 second.

Good luck finding a real one, only the Mk.III is road legal, and they made just 7 of them. If you see one on the road, you can be 99.9% sure its a replica (see a nice example here: http://www.gt40.co.nz ). That said, I'd love to have one, but I'd be afraid to drive it. As far as a replica..its not worth it for such an uncomfortable car, maybe as a second car, but I wouldnt drive it much. If I had to pick a car I'd actually drive, I'd pick the BMW M1. Heres some pics a friend of mine took of one while we were at Laguna Seca a few weekends ago: |

Would we have to keep the car?
If not: Bugatti Veyron, then sell it, get a vette, 5-series BMW, and a Mercedes Sl-500 If we kept it: Ferrari Enzo.
