TopGear is working with SSC to make the unveiling of the Ultimate Aero II one of next year’s biggest events. To build up some hype, more images and details of the supercar have been released. The SSC Ultimate Aero II will utilize a 6.8-liter twin-turbocharged V-8 engine producing a massive 1,350 hp and moving a methodically designed 2,600-pound carbon fiber body to hopefully beat the Veyron at its own top-speed game. Shelby SuperCars even went as far as designing the world’s first one-piece carbon fiber wheels—weighing in at a mere 13 pounds—as part of its weight-saving measures. As you would rightfully think, performance is stellar. It is a bit slower than the Veyron in the low end (due to the Veyron’s all-wheel drive?) but will make up for it with a much higher top speed. SSC estimates that it will go zero-to-60 mph in 2.8 seconds and reach a top speed of (fingers crossed) 275 mph. The car will come in at one-million dollars and will start making big news early next year.

Man they need to get rid of that wiper and use a blower. Most new airplanes have this rain X treatment on steroids that uses a 8 step application. Its baked onto the window for 12 hours and works amazing. These little louvers come up and blow the water off the windshield works 1 million times better than wipers lasts roughly 10 years. I did it to my car, the second i hit 35mph its instant clear windshield.

Sexyyy. Looks like a Lambo from the side tho.....

[deemo99]

Much better looking than the first one! 2600lbs nom nom nom

[Austin@STM]

is it just me or does 13 pounds seem heavy for a 1pc carbon fiber wheel?

[mb7050]

not just you because I know WEDS makes full carbon wheels and they weight 6 pounds each

[terrets]

But can they go 275 and are they as wide/big? Not sure if the speed has something to do with making them beefier
