For the DeLorean DMC-12:

6.8/10 - Terrific looks, distinctive choice of material, but it's a bit "all show and no go." And without the "Back to the Future" reference, that car wouldn't have so much iconic status.


For the Toyota SR5 truck:

7.9/10 - Not as recognizably iconic as the DeLorean, but still a potent truck with the right firm looks.


Fiat Tipo 2.0 16v

3/10 for most people, 7/10 if it's an Italian driver who's wringing it's neck.

4/10 - looks quite genereic, but I'd probably turn my head to look at it if I passed one on a street here in Europe.

Tesla Model X '12 - overdone doors are overdone. That aside, not so bad for an SUV in my opinion.

Kinda looks like a pumped Model S.

SSC Tuatara
WIkipedia page
According to the manufacturer, the Tuatara will use an SSC designed billet aluminium Turbocharged 7.0-Litre V8 engine block that will redline at 9,200 rpm and deliver 1,350 hp (1,007 kW) and 1,280 lb·ft (1,735 N·m) at 6,800 rpm on 91RON rated unleaded premium petrol. Its engine will be capable of 1,700 hp (1,268 kW) with emission controls removed. The car will weigh 2,750 pounds (1,250 kg) due to a carbon fiber construction (including the wheels) and aluminium crumple zones. This means it will manage a power-to-weight ratio of over 1,000 hp (746 kW) per tonne. The manufacturer claims the Tuatara will accelerate from a stop to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 2.3 seconds and the top speed is estimated to be 276 miles per hour (444 km/h).[1] To become the world's fastest production car, the final production version of the Tuatara will have to beat the 267.8 miles per hour (431.0 km/h) set by the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport on July 4, 2010.
