Lets begin the tour with no 10
1. Bugatti Veyron Super Sport
Top speed- 267.856 mph (431.072 kph)
This car is also one of the fastest accelerating and deaccelerating car in the world and the amazing thing is that it can it con go from 0 to 60 mph in 2.8s and come back from 60 to 0 in 2.2s.
The Veyron Super Sport features an engine power increase from the standard 1,001 metric horsepower to 1,200 metric horsepower and a revised aerodynamic package. It was shown publicly for the first time at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance in August 2010.
With representatives of the Guinness Book of Records and German Technical Inspection Agency (TÜV) on hand, Bugatti's official test driver Pierre Henri Raphanel made passes around the big oval in both directions achieving an average maximum speed of 431.072 km/h (267.856 mph). Once produced for sale, the first five Super Sports will sport the same black and orange finish as the first production car, which was used to set the speed record, and all production models will be electronically limited to 415 km/h (258 mph) to protect the tyres.
2. Koenigsegg Agera
Top Speed- 260 mph (420.03 kph)
Its believed that its successor Koenigsegg Agera R which runs on biofuel can go upto 275 mph which is faster than veyron but it is not tested and so it is excluded from this list but will be there in my list of fastest cars with estimated speeds.
In early development the car was fitted with a 4.7-litre V8 engine with twin fixed-vane turbos, but it was replaced with a 5.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine for the production version of the car. It does 0-100 kph (0-62 mph) in 3.1 seconds, 0-200 kph (124 mph) in 8.7 seconds.
3. Hennessey Venom GT
Top Speed- 260 mph (418.42 kph)
Hennessey claims that it can go upto 275 mph but that also under proper gearing conditions.
The upgraded version of dodge viper i.e. Hennessey Viper Venom 1000 twin turbo can go to 255 mph and if it is true then it is right after SSC in the list next time you see it.

Top Speed- 220 mph (350 kph)
The Enzo Ferrari is a 12 cylinder mid-engine berlinetta named after the company's founder, Enzo Ferrari. It was built in 2002 using Formula Onetechnology, such as a carbon-fibre body, F1-style electrohydraulic shift transmission, and Carbon fibre-reinforced Silicon Carbide (C/SiC) ceramiccomposite disc brakes. Also used are technologies not allowed in F1 such as active aerodynamics and traction control. After a downforce of 775 kg (1,709 lb) is reached at 300 km/h (186 mph) the rear wing is actuated by computer to maintain that downforce.
The Enzo can accelerate to 60 mph (97 km/h) in 3.14 seconds and can reach 100 mph (160 km/h) in 6.6 seconds. The ¼ mile (~400 m) time is 11.0 at 136 mph (219 km/h) and the top speed has been recorded to be as high as 350 kilometres per hour (220 mph). It is rated at 12 miles per US gallon (20 L/100 km; 14 mpg) in the city and 18 miles per US gallon (13 L/100 km; 22 mpg) on the highway.
10. Pagani Zonda Tricolore
Top Speed- 220 mph (350 kph)
The final mass-produced Zonda was originally conceived as a one-off; there were actually three Tricolores built. It was built as a tribute to the country's aerobatic team. It carries a lot of the body from the Zonda Cinque. The car is unpainted except for a clear blue lacquer and red, white and green stripes that run up from the nose along the top of the car's surface. Unique to this car is a small wing placed behind the cockpit which reflects tricolore's Aermacchi MB-39 PAN stunt planes tail wing. The three Tricolore's will be priced at 1.2 Million pounds. It's also 6 mph (9.7 km/h) faster than a standard Zonda at 220 mph (350 km/h).
