A 2009 Harley-Davidson Sportster Iron 883 turned into a beast so bad ass it should have co-starred in The Expendables. Almost all of its parts have been replaced but it remains faithful to the original look.
It has 780bhp under the hood. It goes from 0-62mph in 3.4s, with a top speed of 200mph. It’s an electric car, albeit driven by a gas-turbine. Most of all, as Clarkson would say, it’s a Jaaaag.
This gyrocopter will reach speeds of up to 253mph, using 15 blades to propel its occupants through the air. There’s two wing-mounted turboprops to boost its regular rotor. Jump to 6:00 for the juicy bits.

The current gen Viper is officially obsolete, but it’s still a sight to behold, even when it’s just revving up and burning rubber. Add operatic music and run it in slow motion and you’ve got a winner.

Looking very much like a convertible version of the 599, the SA Aptera is perfect for a sunny day outing, but don’t let its leisurely style fool you. It’s got a 611-hp V12 and goes 0-to-60 in 3.1 secs.
