Mega car sounds yucky as a term tbh. Can't we go back to referring to everything from the Lamborghini Diablo onwards as Super/Hypercars? Also when is SSC making the Tuatara? I read an article on it in 2010/11 where they were promising stats like 1,700hp, 2.3 second 0-60 and a top speed of 276. Did they abort production/fall short of their goals? Production cars are getting absurd tbh. I wonder when we'll be bidding farewell to the 300mph barrier.
we dont really need a new name theyre all just faster cars
I don't know man, I mean, the technology and engineering is impressive, but I don't really get excited by anything that's more expensive than a new Viper.Now super bikes tho... Get rid if the gentlemen's agreement and lets see how fast Kawi, Honda, and Suzuki can get riders to kill them selves on a stock bike at over 200mph.
the name is funny, mega, there's a pokemon joke here somewhere
Mega doesn't sound any greater than hyper, to me.Why not giga or something?
how about car

If they're going to coin another name for these cars, why not make it something that at least has the connotation of 'greater than hyper' and doesn't make them sound like Tonka toys.

While trying to pose the question of "can we...?", we forgot to ask "should we...?"Interesting pieces of machinery I bet, but aside from being on display (at a hair raising speed of 0MPH), where can they be used, and for how long? I remember reading about the consumption rate of the bugatti veyron. Something like the tires only last half an hour, and the fuel around that time if going at top speed.Cool, but ultimately pointless. I'm not even sure you can race 'em, and even then I expect that to last about as long as Group B in the World Rally Championships.

Atleast the Venom. They have a new one coming soon that seems like it will break that trend. They are very good at the speed thing, even starting a rivalry with Bugatti (which they won with the SS) just not so much round track

It's running boost on the hopes and dreams of weaboos everywhere. You can't beat that shit.
The dawn of a new era, the mega car.
