Jeremie,

The FXX cars are like prototypes - they are always under development, and always have different settings. As such they will have different top speeds...

However, the FXX has improved aerodynamics and about 800 bhp, compared to the Enzo which has 660 bhp (349 km/h).

I suppose that one could calculate a theoretical top speed based on the power output and friction.

Im gussing the top speed is past Mclaren top speed 386.2 kph / 240.0 mph

I think but not 100% sure 400 km/h like Bugatti with 1001 Hp.

only with the top speed key, in which case it does "only" 250mph..

253mph to be exact, and the Veyron is believed to be able to reach 261mph...
Don't get me wrong I hate this car, it's the sort of thing Ettore Bugatti would have never built, but I have to admit that as an engineering achievement it is amazing.

but is it.

i watched topgear tonight, and i felt it got all a bit ridiculous. or is this a bit of italian jelousy?

1001bhp is not a previously unreached figure. considering the engine has 16 cylinders and 4 turbo chargers, i think you could rightfully (reletive) expect more. without the turbos, does it even manage 100bhp per litre?

it's not especially light, and it's by no means a rocket around the track. infact i'd bet my house the zonda f and ezon are faster.

throwing money at a problem like that can always get you the results you want. but maybe it takes more money still to get to 261mph in the most perfectly engineered way.

on a personal note, like every luxury VW this car is the ott, look at me attraction for property developers and footballers the world over.

I think that the fact that it works is the engineering achievement itself. However I cound't agree more with your last paragraph, really sums up the car.

I gather one D. Beckham has just bought one, which ought to make it suitably naff.

On the power issue, I am led to believe that the 987bhp figure is not the full story. The engine itself produces (a raw) 3000bhp-odd. Plenty of which is spent on the 12 radiators. The 987bhp is 'at the wheels'. In any case, the 3000bhp figure would certainly go some way to explaining why it will dispatch 150-200mph in top faster than a 911 Turbo will do something well below that in second.

boys go to rennteam.com and go to ferrari forum and theres a ferrari fxx testing video.
