The Enzo Ferrari, The Fastest Ferrari?

ferrari, enzo ferrari, ferrari car

The Enzo Ferrari is one of the fastest naturally aspirated production cars in the world.
Named after the company's founder, Enzo Ferrari, this beast will go from 0 to 60 in around 3.14 seconds.
It can hit 0 to 100 in 6.6 seconds.
Talk about a Millennium Falcon moment!
And this sleek beauty can turn the quarter mile in around 10 seconds at 130 MPH.
The top speed is a very respectable 230 MPH.
It does all this with a EPA rating (Don't laugh) of 12 mpg in the city, and 18 mpg on the highway.
Hey it's a V-12 after all.

The BMW E63 M6

BMW E63 M6, bmw

Possibly the fastest BMW ever made is the E63 M6.
This " Velvet Hammer"can hit 0 to 60 in about 4.6 seconds.
This land rocket has a speed limiter that keeps it at 155 mph.
BUT, with the limiter removed, the M6 can hit around 205 mph.
With the cool little "power button" the BMW jumps from 399 hp to a full 500 hp!

The Jaguar XJ

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

A Jaguar near and dear to my heart, because we have a 1988 XJ6.
The Jaguar XJ was more of a luxury touring car, not the land rockets some Jags were.
They came with the six cylinder and V-12.
But that's not to say the model had no high performance engines.
In 1994 they had a 6.0 L Jaguar V12 engine rated at 318bhp.
In 1995 there was a 326 bhp supercharged version of the straight-6 offered and badged as the XJR.
The X308 Mk II had a 4.0 litre supercharged option that delivered 370 bhp and also a 4.0 that provided 400 bhp.

The Jaguar 420 was produced, starting in August 1966 by Jaguar.
It was designed to be the ultimate compact sporting saloon (sedan).

Believe it or not, with its twin carburetor 3.8 liter engine, this boxy looking vehicle could do 0 to 60mph in under 10 seconds, and had a top speed of over 125 mph!

The Jaguar 420 ceased production in September 1968.
