I think Bugati Veyron owners might disagree with that, as they have some 987
BHP to play with, in road trim!
I don't want to think about the running costs, but if you have to ask, you can't
afford it.
There were other US cars too, that were much more powerfull than the Mustang
or Cobra, with over 1000BHP, but not in production now AFIK, and I cant
remember the make or models.
And if it's power to weight ratio you want, google "Ariel Attom". Scary...
