Smallest car

The smallest car made out of a single molecule and it has a chassis, axles and a pivoting suspension. The wheels are buckyballs, spheres of pure carbon containing 60 atoms apiece. The whole car is no more than 4 nanometers across and slightly wider than a strand of DNA. To see the perspective, human hair is about 80,000 nanometers thick. At room temperature, strong electrical bonds hold the buckyball wheels tightly against the gold, but heating to about 200 degrees Celesius frees them to roll. Its use - to build tiny trucks that could carry atoms and molecules around in minature factories. As you can see this is one car you cannot drive!

For the lesser mortals like us,it is always interesting to find what options exist on the higher end. I took a plunge and came across the article in Forbes for the most expensive car in US(2005). Turns out this $550,000/- S7 saleen beauty is made from the Mustang Engine deeply modified. It is said that the car will not lose its grip even if we drive the car upside down at around 160mph and this is from the company communication and we do not know how they said that it could do that. Power output is claimed at 550 hp with performance of less than four seconds to 60mph and top speed in excess of 200 mph.
Other features include a video monitor for rearview mirror(as we cannot use the conventional rearview anyway??) and removable steering wheel to ease entry and exit to the tightfitting cabin.
