Top 10 Fastest Cars Ever Created In The World

September 16, 2019 By ThisBlogRules Leave a Comment

Fastest cars

There’s nothing that beats the feeling of a fast car; it’s exhilarating, thrilling, and a little bit scary all rolled into one. Imagine then hitting the high speeds in one of the top 10 fastest cars ever made and you probably get goosebumps thinking about it. We’re counting own the fastest cars in the world and checking out the speeds that earn them a place on this list.

We’ve all experienced the thrill of going fast at some time in our lives, whether it’s on a roller coaster or riding on the back of a motorbike. As much as we love to go fast, we also know it can be dangerous, but when you’re riding around in one of these prestigious cars you probably don’t give much mind to danger.

Sure, we’ll probably never get a chance to drive a Lamborghini for ourselves, but we can certainly dream about it. Admiring the cars here is probably the closest we’ll ever come to them, and that’s okay for us.

The cars on the list of the world’s fastest are constantly changing as manufacturers find new ways to reach top speeds while also delivering a car that looks and feels good. With many of them costing close (and even over) the million dollar mark, these probably won’t be on your Christmas wish list but there’s no harm in fantasizing.

Even if you’re someone who isn’t passionate about cars, you’ll no doubt be interested to see which ones have made our list and you might even learn something new. Check out what the top 10 fastest cars on earth are and get blown away by their stats and speeds.

#10: Lamborghini Aventador

Top 10 Fastest Cars Ever Created In The World

They have one of the most recognized names in the world of sports cars, so it’s no wonder that a Lamborghini has made the list. The Aventador can get up to 220 mph and will go from 0 to 60 in just 2.9 seconds which is pretty darn impressive. Their production is limited but if you do manage to get your hands on one, go for the bright orange to make yourself really stand out. The Lamborghini Aventador was also named the Best Luxury Car on the Market which means it goes fast and feels good doing it. At the low price of just $400,000 for the base model, this is a steal for a sports car as cool as this.

#9: Aston Martin one-77

There’s no doubt that the Aston Martin one-77 is the coolest looking car on our list, but it’s not quite the fastest. That doesn’t mean it can’t perform though, as it’s able to reach top speeds of 220 mph and have you looking incredibly suave while you do so. Arguably one of the biggest car manufacturers in the world, you’ll be turning heads with this car, that’s if they can spot you fast enough. With a whopping $2.5 million price tag we’re not sure who exactly could afford this car, but we want to befriend them.

#8: Noble M600

Noble M600

Noble might not be a household name like some of the other English car manufacturers but that doesn’t mean they don’t know how to build a fast car. The gorgeously stunning Noble M600 is a serious contender in looks and speed, with the ability to go up to 225 mph. This is a pretty exclusive car with only 50 produced each year, and at a cost of around $500,000, we think that’s a good deal. You will be able to impress your friends by going from 0 to 60 in just 3.7 seconds, and people won’t be able to keep their eyes of the body of this car, looking like something that stepped out of a classic James Bond film.

#7: Gumpert Appollo

Gumpert Appollo

There’s a good reason why the German manufacturer Gumpert has shortened their name for marketing purposes, as their full title is actually Gumpert Sportwagenmanufaktur. If you can’t guess by that name, they make sports cars, and specifically ones that go super, super fast. Surprisingly enough, this is the first German car to make the list and for those who don’t know a whole lot about sports cars they might not even recognize the Gumpert name. However, that doesn’t mean they don’t know what they’re doing. The Gumpert Appollo goes so fast that it can hit speeds of 225 mph and will go from 0 to 60 in just 3.0 seconds. You can get your hands on this speed demon for pretty cheap compared to the rest, with some coming in under $500,000.

#6: Zenvo ST1

Zenvo ST1

The Zenvo ST1 is a pretty fast ride, and what makes it impressive is how quick it gets moving. With the ability to go from 0 to 60 in just 2.9 seconds it beats some of our faster cars, but with a speed of 233 mph it just misses out from the top spots. Zenvo is a Scandinavian car manufacturer which might surprise some people to learn, as we usually think of furniture and not high-performance vehicles, but they seem to know what they’re doing. You can be expected to shell out $1.8 million for the honor of driving this serious machine, so as long as you’re super rich you shouldn’t have a problem.

#5: Koenigsegg CCX

Koenigsegg CCX

If you want a car made by a company who only deals in the very fastest and hottest performance racers, it has to be Swedish manufacturer Koenigsegg. The CCX is one of their top performers and when they tell us it can go from 0 to 60 in 3.2 seconds, we’d have to agree with them. Koenigsegg has made this car pretty affordable when compared to others in the million dollar range, with the base model available for around $700,000. It’s capable of getting up to 245 mph which is an impressive feat for a car, and one that certainly makes it worth the thousands of dollars.

?#4: 9ff GTR-9

9ff GTR-9

When you want a car that looks good on the outside and can also go incredibly fast, look no further than the 9ff GTR-9. This car is made with the unmistakable body of a Porsche 911, only edited to go faster than before. 9ff is a German car tuning company who created this spectacular machine which is capable of going from 0 to 60 in just 2.9 seconds. The 9ff GTR-9 comes with one minor design flaw though, the inside has been virtually removed, so while you might go fast you won’t have much to do inside the car. With a top speed of 257 mph, it probably doesn’t matter as you’ll be too busy holding on for dear life than looking around in the glove box.

?#3: Hennessey Venom GT

Hennessey Venom GT

It’s great to see an American manufacturer getting onto the list, and managing to get so close to the top spot. The Hennessey Venom GT is a high-performance sports car that is pretty rare, with only 13 units in production, making it one of the hardest to come by on this list. With a max speed of 260mph and the ability to go from 0 to 60 in 2.5 seconds, you’ll barely see this thing as it zips past you. There are varying prices depending on the make, but if you’re lucky enough to get one you can be expected to pay around $1.25 million for the honor. For that price, you probably would be too scared to take it out on the road anyway, less it got damaged.

#2: Bugatti Veyron Super Sport

It’s probably no surprise to anyone to find a Bugatti this close to the top of the list, as the Italian manufacturer is known for speed. Officially known as the fastest car in the world, the Super Sport is just one kind of Veyron vehicles made by Bugatti and the only one on our list. This car can reach speeds of 267mph which is seriously impressive. It goes from 0 to 60 in 2.4 seconds, so you can see why it’s constantly topping the list for speed machines. You might need a fair bit of wealth to get one though, as they cost close to $2 million.

?#1: Koenigsegg Agera RS

Koenigsegg Agera RS

Another on the list from Swedish car maker Koenigsegg is their Agera RS, coming from the Swedish verb ‘agera’ which means to act. Act it certainly does, hitting the top speed of 277.9mph. As of 2017, the RS is officially the fastest car in the world, and its previous model the Agera R was pretty high up on the list as well. Koenigsegg has certainly proven their point that they know how to make a fast car, even if us normal folk could never afford one at $2.5million just for the base model. One can dream though, can’t they?

With the help of their school nurse, they battle to survive the vicious hordes of zombies along with the human villains who take advantage of the chaos. Compared to the popular “The Walking Dead” series, we recommend it for its compelling cast of characters and intense zombie action.

Corpse Party – Tortured Souls

A four-episode adaptation of the Japanese video game Corpse Party, this two-hour series takes the form of a ghost story move that kicks off when a group of teenagers perform a friendship charm for a classmate who is moving away.

The Future Diary

Fusing sci-fi horror with elements of classic series like Battle Royale and The Hunger Games, this 26-episode series focuses on the Diary Games, a mysterious battle royale pitting twelve different individuals in a fight to death.

Each participant is given a diary by the mastermind, the god of Time and Space, that can predict the future. The god plans to pick the winner as his heir. It is a more complicated and often metaphysical suspense story than a pure horror series. Its best features are the intense plot and the way it asks deep questions about the future.

Tokyo Ghoul

No products found.

About

This twelve-episode adaptation of the popular manga is one of the most famous horror anime and is a clever fusing of the horror and high school anime genres.

It’s set in a world where ghouls, beings that look like normal humans but eat human flesh, secretly live among people. When high schooler Ken Kaneki is attacked by his date – a ghoul in disguise – he undergoes an experimental surgery that turns him into a half-ghoul and forces him to rely on the help of a band of benevolent ghouls who run a coffee shop to survive.

Parasyte

No products found.

About

A twenty-four episode adaptation of the manga, this darkly comic body horror anime focuses on teenager Shinichi Izumi, who lives a quiet life with his parents until he becomes the victim of an alien invasion of worm-like creatures called paraystes.

These creatures attempt to take over people’s brains, but one hapless parasyte becomes stuck in Shinichi’s hand and gains control over that appendage. Stuck together, Shinichi and the parasyte Migi form an uneasy bond that allows them to survive as Migi’s monstrous fellow invaders make their move on the human population.

Shiki

No products found.

About

Adapted from a popular horror novel series that became a manga, this 22-episode series takes place in the 1990s during a heatwave in a small village named Sotoba.

When a series of mysterious deaths plague the village, suspicions fall upon a strange family that just moved into a long-abandoned mansion with supernatural history. Doctor Toshio Ozaki tries to calm the panic and prove an epidemic is behind the deaths, but more evidence surfaces that vampire-like creatures named Shiki may be behind the carnage.

Mononoke

No products found.

About

A twelve-episode spin-off of the popular horror anthology series Ayakashi: Samurai Horror Tales, this period-piece horror anime takes place during the Edo period of Japan as a lower-class merchant attempts to make his living in the era of Samurai.

Lacking a strong central plot but packing in many thrills and chills per episode, this anime follows a medicine seller as he travels on rural roads and encounters supernatural menaces. This series has some very good creative scares and gives an interesting, in-depth look at the Japanese class structure.

Yamishibai

No products found.

About

The longest series on this list, this 78-episode anthology series tells classic ghost stories based around myths and urban legends in Japanese culture. Although the average episode is only a few minutes in length, the series has developed a strong cult following based on its intense scares and its unique animation style, which uses tension and space effectively to heighten the scares.

Elfen Lied

No products found.

About

The Verdict

All ten of the horror anime on this list deliver powerful scares and excellent tension over the series, but one stands out because of its intensity, strong characterization of its leads, and rock-bottom pricing. Its availability as an Amazon Prime original secures the classic series Elfen Lied its place as the best horror anime on the market today.

One of the things Bloodlines is best known for is its writing. With such a large cast of highly memorable characters, it’s easy to see the reason. Which NPCs really drew you in or repelled you? Read on for a tentative top ten of Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines Characters.

Top 10 Smartest Dogs in the World

May 28, 2019 By ThisBlogRules Leave a Comment

Dogs are known as man’s best friend, but we often look at them as our companions who don’t have that much going on upstairs. It turns out we were wrong, as dogs are highly intelligent creatures and some more than others.

If you’ve got a dog yourself, you might be wondering just how they fare in the smarts department. We’ve got your answer right here with the list of the top 10 smartest dogs in the world, and some of the breeds might surprise you.

#10: Australian Cattle Dog

For our first clever dog, we head to the land down under and find the Australian Cattle Dog. These amazing dogs have a very serious job, and if you haven’t guessed by their name it’s droving cattle. They’re used to tough conditions in the outback and are highly energetic with an independent streak.

The cattle dog is known for being extremely organized which you’ll notice as they often put their toys away once they’re done playing with them. They’re agile, like a lot of exercise, and may occasionally nip running children, so you might want to keep them away. They form strong attachments to their owners and love to be groomed and played with but be careful not to let them get bored or you’ll surely know about it.

 

#9: Papillon

Although this tiny, fluffy dog might not look like much, they’re actually extremely intelligent. The Continental Toy Spaniel has large ears that make it look almost comical, but they’re not to be laughed at. Papillons are known for mastering new tricks easily and will find most average dog tasks so simple that they might bore of them.

The Papillon is more of a people person and doesn’t really get along well with cats and other animals, and they like to get most of the attention. They’re known for being great watchdogs and are attentive of their owners and environment. These dogs need plenty of exercise but they also love laying around with their owners and being involved in all of the laid back fun.

 

#8: Rottweiler

When you hear the word ‘rottweiler’ you immediately think of a ferocious and vicious beast, which is how they are commonly portrayed in the media. That may be true in some situations of abuse and neglect, but mostly the Rottweiler is an incredibly smart creature. They were originally bred to be search dogs and used to herd livestock and pull carts of meat for butchers, but today are better as police dogs or search and rescue dogs.

They are steady and self-assured, and as such require a calm and confident owner. However, with the right care, they will be loyal, intelligent, and exceptionally good at searching for things or taking directions. Although they are not aggressive unless provoked or abused, their strength is something to take into consideration.

 

#7: Bloodhound

We all know that the Bloodhound is the dog to look to when you want something to be found, but did you know they also have the smarts to back it up? They are known as being determined and intelligent, and when combined with their powerful scenting power they’re extremely useful. We often see the bloodhound in cartoons being portrayed as dopey, but that couldn’t be further from the truth.

The Bloodhound is known for being the ideal family pet as they are gentle and affectionate. They can be a little stubborn when it comes to training and will need to be supervised around children due to their size, but it would be out of character for them to ever harm a human. These dogs prove that you should never judge a book by its cover, especially as they are always judged as being dopey in cartoons.

 

#6: Doberman Pinscher

The Doberman Pinscher was first bred as a guard dog in Germany, and they certainly do a good job of it. However, they are also quite smart and tuned in which is why they’re commonly used as police dogs or for other serious matters. They have a sleek look which can seem intimidating, but if you ask those families who have one they’ll tell you they’re anything but.

The Doberman is quite large in size which can be good for guarding work, and they are known as a loyal companion. They are incredibly switched on to their environment and will notice any changes immediately. Be sure to keep them active and entertained or they will get busy finding their own trouble to get into.

 

#5: Shetland Sheepdog

Sheepdogs are certainly great for herding sheep, but it seems their talents are being wasted here. These dogs are super smart and any family that owns one will know just what we mean. They are a proud and animated dog that looks and feels amazing, with a huge fluffy coat that you’ll just want to lay on.

The Shetland Sheepdog is a very excitable dog and will often greet you with some conversation. They pick up tricks incredibly fast, love attention, and will do pretty much anything their owner wants to do. Sometimes referred to as ‘shadows’, it’s easy to see that this dog loves to be attached to the family.

 

#4: German Shepherd

German Shepherds are a popular breed in America (2nd most registered breed to be exact), and they’re known for their cunning wit. This is one of the more curious dogs out there and they’ll constantly need something to keep them busy, so be sure to provide it or suffer the consequences. They train very well and respond well to a calm and confident owner.

The German Shepherd is a great career dog who serves the military, police, and other needs quite well. They can herd and hunt with the best of them but have a very strong wit that sets them apart from other dogs. This is definitely not a dog that you can try and fool with silly games, so don’t even bother.

 

#3: Golden Retriever

They’re certainly one of the most gorgeous and affectionate dogs around, but did you know just how smart the Golden Retriever was as well? These beautiful dogs might seem like they’re all about love but they are actually capable of learning over 200 different commands, provided they have an owner who’s willing to put in the time.

Golden Retrievers can be a little naughty when not given attention so you will need to occupy their mind and body quite well. They’re perfect at home with a loving family as well as the workplace and would appreciate the mix of both worlds when possible. A Golden Retriever will be patient and loyal as long as they live, so they make a top choice for a family pet.

 

#2: Poodle

We all have some preconceived notions in our head when we think about poodles, including their yapping and snooty demeanor. However, the poodle is actually highly intelligent and often thought of as the smartest breed on earth.  They have sharp minds and are easily trained so you won’t spend months going over and over the same lessons.

Poodles are another breed who will take matters into their own paws when they’re bored, and they can get pretty creative about what they destroy. Known for their high pitched bark, they’re a great guard dog as well and there’s no way you won’t hear them when something goes down. Keep in mind they need grooming and a lot of love, but they will pay you with smarts and loyalty.

 

#1: Border Collie

Another of the great working and herding dogs and the one to top our list of smartest canines is the Border Collie. You usually think of these dogs as having a rightful place on the farm but they are useful for so much more. They’re some of the better competitors when it comes to dog sports due to their intelligence and when you own one you’ll often feel as though they are one of the humans.

The Border Collie does exceptionally well with children and is a cherished family pet, as well as serious advantage for those with a farm. They have loads of energy and will never refuse a walk or a play down at the park. If you want a dog that will obey whatever you say but also have its own curious and intelligent mind, there’s no doubt that the Border Collie is the best.
