Way too fast for a street car. But you gotta love the design and engineering that goes into it.

Not if Tesla has anything to say about it http://www.carbuzz.com/news/2017/11/17/Tesla-Shatters-Minds-With-Surprise-Reveal-Of-Stupidly-Fast-Roadster-7742054/

7000 ft/lbs of torque at 0 rpm, about 1500 hp, 0-60 mph in 1.9 seconds, 0-100 mph in 4.2, and about 1/3 the price of the recip engine contenders. It's about as ridiculous as it gets.
