Feel a need for speed?

Whether it's on land, air, or water, some people just crave the adrenaline rush and the wind sheer when going at insane speeds. Here's an homage to the fastest civilian vehicles you can get to reach that speed high.

On land: Bugatti Veyron 16.4

It's the fastest and most powerful street legal car in the world. This supercar has 10 radiators, 16 cylinders, and a 7-speed dual clutch. It can go up to more than 400 kph (an insane 407.5 kph to be exact or 253.2 mph).

Breakneck subsonic speeds requires a special key. Upon activation, the car lowers to be more aerodynamic and the spoiler retracts to reduce air friction. It's W16 engine is capable of getting up to 1,000 horsepower, taking it from zero to 60 in 2.5 seconds. With the pedal to the metal full throttle, this two-ton, mid four wheel drive coupe can guzzle up its full tank of gas in 12 minutes or 80 kilometers (just under 50 miles).

Last year, 300 of these beauties from Bugatti Automobiles SAS have been going up for sale at just under US$ 1.5 million.

See the fastest on air and at sea after the jump!
