Couldn't agree more. The F1 will never be topped. The Bugatti gets some props for being another of the few "no compromise" super exotcis. But it is still bi-turbo. So is the Ultimate Aero. And these are the only two road cars to hit a higher top speed than the F1. It hits 247 mph NATURALLY ASPIRATED. And it has a solid gold engine cover.

It will never be suprassed.

Rinseman is an unknown quantity at this point
The Cala was an Italdesign one off, was it not?
