As I was hammered for my love of Horsepower, god forbid and some here seem to feel its a bad thing, hence the statement:

"I thought people here were educated enough to know that high horsepower is all an advertising scam"

I bet all those lucky people who drop, sometimes millions on there cars for the Excessive Horespower cars don't think their cars are advertising scams.

I FULLY realize that MOST of these examples are not real life, but I have to still dream-

LET THE HAMMERING BEGIN::

Bugatti Veryon Super Sport at 1200 HP
Dodge Viper- the coupe, the Viper's 640-bhp 8.4-liter V-10 and 6-speed Tremec
2013 Shelby 1000 HP SC Officially released
McLaren P1- The 3.8-liter eight-cylinder produces 727 hp and 531 lb-ft
Ferrari HP History
Alright, here are some of my additions off the top of my head: (all numbers US spec)
300hp, 348TB 1989-1993
320hp 348GTB 1993-1995
380hp, F355 1994-1999
420hp Challenge Stradale 2003-2004 (some post production cars in 2005)
460hp California 2009- (upgraded to 490hp in 2012)
478hp F40 1987-1992
508hp 575 2002-2006
510hp 430 Scuderia 2007-2009
520hp F50 1995-1997
540hp 612 2004-2010
611hp 599GTB 2005-2012
651hp FF 2011-
660hp Enzo 2002-2004 (some post production cars up to 2008)
661hp 599GTO 2010-2012
