Koenigsegg CCXR Special Edition

I'd really like a Prius but if I had to settle this would do.

You wouldn't expect the second most powerful production car in the world to run on E85 ethanol fuel, but the Koenigsegg CCXR Special Edition ($2.3 million) does exactly that. Its twin-supercharged 4.7L V8 makes an ass-kicking 1018 horsepower, enough to propel the car and its carbon fiber body from 0-62 in 2.9 seconds, and up to a top speed of over 250 mph. Coupled with the its gorgeous looks, the Swedish supercar is sure to be on the Christmas list of corporate big-wigs everywhere. [via]
