Figuring that there are still people who have lots of money and who have lots of money to spend on things they don’t absolutely need, Aston-Martin will unveil its new One-77 (the Aston Martin One,with only 77 units built) which will retail for about $1.7M USD–yes, $1,700,000.  For that money, you get a V-12 with 700HP, and a claimed top speed of at least 200MPH.  I don’t know what gas mileage is, but probably in the 7-10 MPG range. 

Sometimes you see cars that look cool:

The car above is the Galpin Auto Sports’ Scythe, which has a 5.0 liter 1000 HP (yes, as in 1K) V8 engine with twin superchargers. It started life as a Ford Mustang.
