2013 Hennessey HPE700 12C

It’s a beautiful car that assaults each and every sense. The sounds are deeper, more burly than you’d expect from 3.8 liters, the capsule-like cockpit is redolent with fine leather, and the composite bodywork—while not chiseled to the point of inflicting flesh wounds, like the Lamborghini Aventador’s for example—looks powerfully coiled and ready to spring. The mere act of getting into an MP4-12C is full of specialness and ceremony; swipe the underside of the intake channel cut into the door (it pivots up and forward), negotiate the formidable carbon-fiber sill and settle into an exotically sculpted bucket that clings remora-like to your backside. And how cool is that airbrake that pops into full-downforce mode above 60 mph when you get hard into the brakes? We can’t wait to sample more thrust in this already formidable rocket.
