And once again, Chevy reigns supreme...sort of
Amazing new UK car, the Ultima Evolution. While not a Vette, it does sport a Chevy LS motor (we already knew what was the best. Took those English fellows a while to figure it out.) And I quote:
The first Ultima Evolution Coupe production factory built demonstrator flagship model as pictured is equipped with the monstrous 1020bhp and 920ftlbs torque supercharged Chevrolet LS V8 official engine option delivering a power to weight ratio of over 1050bhp/ton which will really shake up the supercar scene and take the performance envelope of the Ultima to the next level. The new 1020bhp Evolution model has already been tested by the factory and has recorded a road legal 0-60mph time of 2.3secs, 0-100mph of 4.9secs with 0-150mph taking a mere 8.9 seconds! It has the capability to accelerate onwards to over 240mph. The 1020bhp Evolution model will surpass the performance envelope of the famous Ultima GTR720 current 0-100mph-0 world record holder which blasted around the top gear test track in full road going configuration in just 1min12.8secs with full video and GPS verified documentation. Those are some stout numbers!

Shelby Ultimate Aero. Designed and built in the US. Also uses a LS based motor. They now use a custom billet block, but it's a similar design. Much better looking than the Brit, IMO.
