Lotec Mercedes-Benz C1000 (1995)
The car was built after an oil tycoon from the United Arab Emirates wanted to create the world’s fastest street-legal car. He hired Lotec, a German company, to build the car. After working together with Mercedes-Benz for five years, the C1000 was created.It comes packing a Mercedes-Benz-sourced twin-turbo 5.6-liter V8 engine and a Hewland 5-speed manual transmission. Push this engine to the limit and it will rocket from 0-60 mph in 3.2 seconds, and will keep you planted until it hits its top speed of 268 mph.
