well, stop acting like "almost" beating bugatti is crazy. You say "oh bugatti has all these insane things and still almost lose" WELL thats EXACTLY what makes bugatti impressive. they build no light weigh aerodyamic car, they build a car more like a rols royce but still fast...
People still talk shit about American hypercars using American brand engines but fail to realize that cars like the Koenigsegg CC8S had a Ford Modular 4.6L V8.
as a guy from Switzerland, I have to say: how can anyone hate on the Saleen S7? It's such a dope and good looking car! Mosler for example was also cool!
Look, this is my take on Bugatti: They are that one sports team, like the USA men’s basketball team, that nobody bats an eye when they win, but everyone panics when they lose. Because that are just expected to win, uncontested, and unchallenged.
That was me when I was 7. And it was because I played so much hot pursuit. In my eyes, i dubbed to think what made a Hypercar qualify was: It needed to go faster than 250-70MPH Over 1000HP Needed to be over 1M And 0-60 in 2 Seconds or under.

@@jbone9900 what? You Americans can never create a Supercar/Hypercar the Level of Bugatti, Koenigsegg, Lamborghini, Ferrari, Aston Martin, And Other European Luxury Speed Greats.
Don't forget the masterpiece that is the Ford GT-90, even if it never made it to production, it was a hypercar before hypercars and the engine was built in house.
Bugatti - 100 yo company, owned by VW, uses Quad Turbo 8.0L W16 Quad Camshaft, 7 speed DCT, attains only 253MPH. Koenigsegg - Hold my beer. 25 yo company, independent, uses Turbocharged 5.1L V8 DOHC, 1 speed KDT, attains 255 MPH. Know your place Bugatti. That is why I love Koenigsegg way more than Bugatti.
The best thing about the Ford GT is that it's made about an hour away from where I live. Just outside of Toronto, Canada. Multimatic. They're entirely hand built. Pretty amazing.
7:05 just to clarify Bladed, and to all who are reading, the Cizeta was the original design for the Diablo, made by the original designer. But Chrysler decided it was too extreme and toned the design down. Technically, the Cizeta was what the Diablo should have looked like had Chrysler not intervened.
and the new hennesy isn't production yet so can't wait to see what happens , but this whole SSC Tuatara fiasco doesn't bode well for american supercaer , lieing about their top speed run
European here. I don't look down on American super/hypercars, why would I? The truth is just that Europe has produced many more high end cars than the USA. You have 1 awesome Saleen and 2 models from SSC, we have a whole range of brands like Bugatti, Pagani, Koenigsegg, and others. I'm not trying to ignore the American fast cars, there is simply much less to talk about. In the last two decades, Ferrari has made countless different supercars, while Ford has made only two generations of the GT. I'm not looking down on American supercars. There is just not a whole lot to look up to.
1:24 is super bs, he just compared engine configuration etc instead of aerodynamics which is the main thing for top speed runs... I swear he mentioned this in his other video or something about aerodynamics mattering for top speed but completely ignores it now, that's the truth.. And second of all there isn't even any proof of it hitting 248, this video is literally the saltiest thing I've seen in a while, the guy literally tried to prove the Saleen was superior when there isn't even proof for the claim and even if it did, aerodynamics is a factor.
The reason we call it “american kit cars” is because they just buy crate engines and tune them up. Pagani has Mercedes-AMG engines because Horacio Pagani was friends with Juan Manuel Fangio, and he connected Pagani to Mercedes, where currently, one guy makes that engine for only Pagani. The F1 uses a BMW engine because Gordon Murray had no previous company with Mclaren at the time to pull engines from, and it was custom made for the F1, and it has bus taillights because of cost constraints. All of our ‘favorite cars’ at 9:30 aren’t production. They are limited production cars made with design first, minus of course the Zonda, F1, and Koenigsegg.
Shmee really pulled out the Einstein card right there 😂😂😂. But the video footage from both the SSC & Koenigsegg run proved that it was not as fast as they say it was. I won't say anything about the Gearbox configuration because that ain't my strong point. But it isn't SSC's fault... it has the potential of being the World's Fastest car OFFICIALLY, they just have to figure out what happened and retry the run
@@insightcars4287 they could've completely bullshitted the claim they hit 331, that makes it their fault. The speedo was blurred, why? The video doesn't match up at all when compared with the Agera RS run. The SSC hits a point which the Agera RS does, basically at the same time, despite apparently going way quicker. They turned off comments on their Instagram post, which just makes me think they lied about it. The worst thing is, Bugatti and Koenigsegg could sue their ass for financial damages if the record is fake.
@@sabersz Why would two European Billion dollar car companies sue a lousy American hundred million dollar car company? That’s like saying the rich can sue a homeless man for walking too close.
Not quite, most people hate american supercars because they're just not that interesting from looks to performances, sure, american made cars can exceed in certain aspects but most of the time they fall short to meet others aspects that made a supercar great, speed isn't everything and good built quality isn't a myth, when american car manufacturers learn that then they will truely be respected, if not they can just stick with what they're good at and currently dominating such as trucks and muscle cars, those are well respected enough
See what it should be is dodges cant turn. The camaro 1le and the gt350 show that ford and chevy can make cars that handle well but the challenger and charger both feel like boats. Good for the drag strip and not much else. Notice how in all the promotional material for the hellcat shows them either driving fast in a straight line, doing burnouts, or doing donuts.
@@bentrod3405 the Dodge Viper ACR begs to differ. It only had 180mph as its top speed but has aero on it so it handles better. The Charger drives at pikes peak every year, the Challenger is essentially the only drag spec car.
@@x-90 and most of all, it was all kickstarter type-charity project rather than factory conducted test, and being the fastest front engined car to lapping the ring until the AMG GTR Black Edition stepped in
Europeans always think American cars can’t corner but the Viper ACR set over 14 production lap records, corvette ZR1 beats European cars that are over 200,000.
let's still throw in the proverbial wrench here. Europeans and asians (more accurately, everyone not from north america) validates their supercar and hypercar status not on pure top speed and acceleration, but on handling around a track, in most cases this would be the nurburgring or suzuka. Though I have no doubt that americans can make extremely fast accelerating cars with extreme top speeds (like the hennesey, saleen, etc), it has already been proven that when it comes to actual laptimes of a circuit that isn't just some typical oval, they fail significantly. In that regard it is better to look at cars that have been significantly modified to actually run these tracks (like the corvette C5R, C6R and hopefully in the near future a C8R) which show that these cars CAN in fact do well, but due to american consumers having such different views on supercars and hypercars compared to the rest of the world, as long as they are stuck in that mindset, their cars will never be taken seriously. Which in my opinion is a pity, patriotism and chauvinism can only get you so far I.E. your own country's borders and opinions, but not beyond. Sorry for the long rant, but as a european, I'm kind of sick of americans constantly bashing european and asian carbrands, completely neglecting the faults of their own and always crying foul when it appears european and asian brands simply are better in general.
^^^^^^ This is such a European attitude. The high brow mindset of holier than thou which makes them so unlikeable. They look down from their ivory tower on America for numerous reasons but the primary one is that we are too “patriotic”. That’s why they hate our cars since most of the famous ones like the mustang are national icons that recognized around the world. I’m not quite sure why they hate patriotism but its probably due to ww2.
Corvette Z06, Viper ACR, Mustang GT350R, Corvette ZR1, C8, Camaro SS/1LE. All these cars have kept up or beaten European and Japanese cars around the track and are very capable. The Nurburgring is really the only track that the Germans have the records and that’s because they were forced to step up their game. The Japanese don’t really make interesting performance cars anymore except the GTR. He’s not bashing American cars he’s exposing why they aren’t “kit cars”. It has nothing to do with patriotism. The Germans have the best engineering but it’s foolish to say that no American car has kept up with them that’s just denial. So again how do Americans fail again?
This is probably the single best automotive rant I've heard in my life! I love how Mercedes fanboys say that it's a luxury brand of high end cars when I look out the window and see a Garbage truck with Mercedes logo XD And I'm saying this as someone who genuinely loves Mercedes cars.
Nonsense mercedes couldn't have succeed if they only made very expensive/luxury cars, thats why Bentley and rolls royce are owned by other companies that also happens to makes cheap cars. Mercedes also makes luxury and non luxury cars, the trucks, unimog, military gwagen, zetros..... if you want the real luxury then buy the sclass period or maybach or the real AMGs
Bruh-moment inducing busses we have here in Mexico are made by Mercedes The compact car that somehow performed as bad as a truck in a moose test is a Mercedes. We can say, Mercedes is not only a luxury car maker.
I'm sorry but that is such a stupid comment. by your logic Ferrari isn't a supercar brand because they made tractors...and yes Mercedes has a huge variety of cars, I know it I live in Stuttgart the hometown of Mercedes but Mercedes main thing is still the luxus category
As a corvette I’m proud to be a corvette living in the beautiful country of corvette on the continent of corvette in the planet corvette which is in the corvette solar system in the corvette universe. 🇺🇸
I'm British. I salute this video. Everyone has to start somewhere, and at least the USA are clearly trying to improve. In fact, for certain cars, they have succeeded. And I'm not even just talking about the Tuatara. The Corvette has really moved it's game along with each generation, and, maybe it's just me, but, the Saleen S7, is beautiful, and I'd love to own one. Don't let the haters get you down Bladed! Love from England.
This video is the reason why people do it. The point of the whole video is that the Corvette is the best in the world. Everyone will choose a European brand over an American one because Europe has better quality.Another reason is that Bugatti and other luxury manufacturers actually have more than 3 models to boast about. I agree that it's stupid to use engine sharing as an argument, but that sharing doesn't mean America is superior to the others.
I love the ford gt mainly because of how much downforce it has and handling it has. Ford should some of their 2019 IMSA drivers and go around testing the stock ford gt at tracks and see if it can beat any records.
I don’t think American Hypercars or Supercars not because it’s a kit car or some shit, it’s just usually a less quality build or not a very good car in general. Yeah it might be able to go over 200 but it doesn’t mean it’s a good car.

This title in comparison to Shmee's title just above makes me laugh so hard
Great vid tho
Mad respect to all car companies honestly. I have never looked down upon any car company. They all have things I love or just like about them.
Bugatti - 100 yo company, owned by VW, uses Quad Turbo 8.0L W16 Quad Camshaft, 7 speed DCT, attains only 253MPH.
Koenigsegg - Hold my beer.
25 yo company, independent, uses Turbocharged 5.1L V8 DOHC, 1 speed KDT, attains 255 MPH.
Know your place Bugatti. That is why I love Koenigsegg way more than Bugatti.
I love Koenigsegg more too, but if Bugatti joins WEC with Bolide, I will change my opinion.
The best thing about the Ford GT is that it's made about an hour away from where I live. Just outside of Toronto, Canada. Multimatic. They're entirely hand built. Pretty amazing.
7:05 just to clarify Bladed, and to all who are reading, the Cizeta was the original design for the Diablo, made by the original designer. But Chrysler decided it was too extreme and toned the design down. Technically, the Cizeta was what the Diablo should have looked like had Chrysler not intervened.
and the new hennesy isn't production yet so can't wait to see what happens , but this whole SSC Tuatara fiasco doesn't bode well for american supercaer , lieing about their top speed run
European here. I don't look down on American super/hypercars, why would I? The truth is just that Europe has produced many more high end cars than the USA. You have 1 awesome Saleen and 2 models from SSC, we have a whole range of brands like Bugatti, Pagani, Koenigsegg, and others. I'm not trying to ignore the American fast cars, there is simply much less to talk about. In the last two decades, Ferrari has made countless different supercars, while Ford has made only two generations of the GT.
I'm not looking down on American supercars. There is just not a whole lot to look up to.
1:24 is super bs, he just compared engine configuration etc instead of aerodynamics which is the main thing for top speed runs... I swear he mentioned this in his other video or something about aerodynamics mattering for top speed but completely ignores it now, that's the truth.. And second of all there isn't even any proof of it hitting 248, this video is literally the saltiest thing I've seen in a while, the guy literally tried to prove the Saleen was superior when there isn't even proof for the claim and even if it did, aerodynamics is a factor.
Yep, the Saleen is the overrated car that lost the racing series made for them to win (FIA GT1)
Great timing with the SSC scandal going on lol
Yea
Lol
That's what I was gonna say
What scandal? They just made a really fast car lol
@@RayanM50B25 Fast but maybe exaggerated with how fast they say.
1:01 i think another point you miss is
That the saleen actually looked cool
Also i want to have a ls a power house;)
An American just being proud.
But what he said are true. European exotics doesn't have too be always seen as the best cars.
Exactly american exotics are better even im filipino
4:00 I can hear the Gran Turismo 3 dealership music in the background. Nice touch.
The reason we call it “american kit cars” is because they just buy crate engines and tune them up.
Pagani has Mercedes-AMG engines because Horacio Pagani was friends with Juan Manuel Fangio, and he connected Pagani to Mercedes, where currently, one guy makes that engine for only Pagani.
The F1 uses a BMW engine because Gordon Murray had no previous company with Mclaren at the time to pull engines from, and it was custom made for the F1, and it has bus taillights because of cost constraints.
All of our ‘favorite cars’ at 9:30 aren’t production. They are limited production cars made with design first, minus of course the Zonda, F1, and Koenigsegg.
The SSC might not have broken the record, tho.
Shmee really pulled out the Einstein card right there 😂😂😂. But the video footage from both the SSC & Koenigsegg run proved that it was not as fast as they say it was. I won't say anything about the Gearbox configuration because that ain't my strong point. But it isn't SSC's fault... it has the potential of being the World's Fastest car OFFICIALLY, they just have to figure out what happened and retry the run
@@insightcars4287 they could've completely bullshitted the claim they hit 331, that makes it their fault. The speedo was blurred, why? The video doesn't match up at all when compared with the Agera RS run. The SSC hits a point which the Agera RS does, basically at the same time, despite apparently going way quicker.
They turned off comments on their Instagram post, which just makes me think they lied about it. The worst thing is, Bugatti and Koenigsegg could sue their ass for financial damages if the record is fake.
@@sabersz Why would two European Billion dollar car companies sue a lousy American hundred million dollar car company? That’s like saying the rich can sue a homeless man for walking too close.
@@jadarriuswashington4614 because of financial damages. The company size doesn't matter.
Why don’t more people know about you after 2 years of watching
Anyone here after Shmee’s video on the SSC Tuatara’s run?
Bugatti: We`re the fastest!
A mustang tuner boi: *do I need to ALMOST destroy you?*
I'm starting to think that it isn't only elitism, but literally just hating on American supercars because they are American
Not quite, most people hate american supercars because they're just not that interesting from looks to performances, sure, american made cars can exceed in certain aspects but most of the time they fall short to meet others aspects that made a supercar great, speed isn't everything and good built quality isn't a myth, when american car manufacturers learn that then they will truely be respected, if not they can just stick with what they're good at and currently dominating such as trucks and muscle cars, those are well respected enough
After what they did with their "world record", I'm defenetly gonna look down even more.
I am danish and love my “home built” Zenvos but damn i am glad that you shined the light on all of this thank you Bladed you have made my day
i'm also danish
Next video should put down the “American cars can’t turn” lie. The Camaro 1LE Beats the 488 at the Nurburgring
See what it should be is dodges cant turn. The camaro 1le and the gt350 show that ford and chevy can make cars that handle well but the challenger and charger both feel like boats. Good for the drag strip and not much else. Notice how in all the promotional material for the hellcat shows them either driving fast in a straight line, doing burnouts, or doing donuts.
@@bentrod3405 GT500 is a great track car in fact it's designed for the track more than the strip and bladed doesn't even say american cars can't turn
@@bentrod3405 the Dodge Viper ACR begs to differ. It only had 180mph as its top speed but has aero on it so it handles better. The Charger drives at pikes peak every year, the Challenger is essentially the only drag spec car.
@@x-90 and most of all, it was all kickstarter type-charity project rather than factory conducted test, and being the fastest front engined car to lapping the ring until the AMG GTR Black Edition stepped in
Hands down best video u ever made especially the ending
Europeans always think American cars can’t corner but the Viper ACR set over 14 production lap records, corvette ZR1 beats European cars that are over 200,000.
let's still throw in the proverbial wrench here. Europeans and asians (more accurately, everyone not from north america) validates their supercar and hypercar status not on pure top speed and acceleration, but on handling around a track, in most cases this would be the nurburgring or suzuka. Though I have no doubt that americans can make extremely fast accelerating cars with extreme top speeds (like the hennesey, saleen, etc), it has already been proven that when it comes to actual laptimes of a circuit that isn't just some typical oval, they fail significantly. In that regard it is better to look at cars that have been significantly modified to actually run these tracks (like the corvette C5R, C6R and hopefully in the near future a C8R) which show that these cars CAN in fact do well, but due to american consumers having such different views on supercars and hypercars compared to the rest of the world, as long as they are stuck in that mindset, their cars will never be taken seriously. Which in my opinion is a pity, patriotism and chauvinism can only get you so far I.E. your own country's borders and opinions, but not beyond.
Sorry for the long rant, but as a european, I'm kind of sick of americans constantly bashing european and asian carbrands, completely neglecting the faults of their own and always crying foul when it appears european and asian brands simply are better in general.
^^^^^^
This is such a European attitude. The high brow mindset of holier than thou which makes them so unlikeable. They look down from their ivory tower on America for numerous reasons but the primary one is that we are too “patriotic”. That’s why they hate our cars since most of the famous ones like the mustang are national icons that recognized around the world. I’m not quite sure why they hate patriotism but its probably due to ww2.
Corvette Z06, Viper ACR, Mustang GT350R, Corvette ZR1, C8, Camaro SS/1LE. All these cars have kept up or beaten European and Japanese cars around the track and are very capable. The Nurburgring is really the only track that the Germans have the records and that’s because they were forced to step up their game. The Japanese don’t really make interesting performance cars anymore except the GTR. He’s not bashing American cars he’s exposing why they aren’t “kit cars”. It has nothing to do with patriotism. The Germans have the best engineering but it’s foolish to say that no American car has kept up with them that’s just denial. So again how do Americans fail again?
Funny part is that if SSC didn't set a new record he wouldn't be carrying on like this 🤣💀
They didn’t even set the record. Look at shmee150’s recent video. It was faked
This is probably the single best automotive rant I've heard in my life!
I love how Mercedes fanboys say that it's a luxury brand of high end cars when I look out the window and see a Garbage truck with Mercedes logo XD
And I'm saying this as someone who genuinely loves Mercedes cars.
Nonsense mercedes couldn't have succeed if they only made very expensive/luxury cars, thats why Bentley and rolls royce are owned by other companies that also happens to makes cheap cars. Mercedes also makes luxury and non luxury cars, the trucks, unimog, military gwagen, zetros..... if you want the real luxury then buy the sclass period or maybach or the real AMGs
Bruh-moment inducing busses we have here in Mexico are made by Mercedes
The compact car that somehow performed as bad as a truck in a moose test is a Mercedes.
We can say, Mercedes is not only a luxury car maker.
@@EdyAlbertoMSGT3 the failed moose test was in 1999 I think and it was a whole new car for mercedes the class A or B
I'm sorry but that is such a stupid comment. by your logic Ferrari isn't a supercar brand because they made tractors...and yes Mercedes has a huge variety of cars, I know it I live in Stuttgart the hometown of Mercedes but Mercedes main thing is still the luxus category
BRO I Thoroughly ENJOY THAT SOMEONE IS MAKING THIS THIS IS AWESOME I ENJOY THIS SO MUCH
As a corvette I’m proud to be a corvette living in the beautiful country of corvette on the continent of corvette in the planet corvette which is in the corvette solar system in the corvette universe. 🇺🇸
into the corvetteverse
I'm British. I salute this video. Everyone has to start somewhere, and at least the USA are clearly trying to improve. In fact, for certain cars, they have succeeded. And I'm not even just talking about the Tuatara. The Corvette has really moved it's game along with each generation, and, maybe it's just me, but, the Saleen S7, is beautiful, and I'd love to own one.
Don't let the haters get you down Bladed! Love from England.
Such a long rant to say that your Corvette is technically a supercar.
Even tho everyone secretly knows they are closer to being a Miata on steroids.
The corvette is a supercar tho...
@@Luke_.. It isn't, it's just a fast sports car. Same with BMW M8 and couple other cars, they just are not supercars. Even the 911's are borderline.
Corvettes, low series bmws and 911s are not supercars simply because they are too common
@@Yaro2 Exactly. Also, not everything is about acceleration either.
@Glasspack40 Nah mate, Corvette isn't a supercar, they are dime a dozen in the US.
"Is the Earth flat? No it's a Corvette!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Every time you show Seat on the list of “fancy European exotics” it makes me smile. No salt, I just think it’s funny.
This video is the reason why people do it. The point of the whole video is that the Corvette is the best in the world. Everyone will choose a European brand over an American one because Europe has better quality.Another reason is that Bugatti and other luxury manufacturers actually have more than 3 models to boast about. I agree that it's stupid to use engine sharing as an argument, but that sharing doesn't mean America is superior to the others.
I love the ford gt mainly because of how much downforce it has and handling it has. Ford should some of their 2019 IMSA drivers and go around testing the stock ford gt at tracks and see if it can beat any records.
I’m a JDM boy but I will always love Hennessy cars
I almost cryied when he started to speak about the Ford GTs, beautiful!
I'm glad I subscribed to your channel months ago. This is pure car education.
1:33 - 1:49 so is it possible to call the Veyron a Volkswagen kit car? Or not?
It's a shame SSC faked the record lmao.
I'd recommend watching Shmee150's video before you argue with me 😂
I reckon part the reason he made this is cause of that controversy
I'm not sure they faked the record and they invited shmee150 to watch a 2nd run
It didn’t hit 330 but it did break the record.
Soooooooo are you gonna talk about Shmee’s video ?
*me over here having the Saleen S7 as one of my top 5 favorite cars of all time* 👁👄👁
Fun Fact: a Saleen was featured in Bruce Almighty.
I don’t think American Hypercars or Supercars not because it’s a kit car or some shit, it’s just usually a less quality build or not a very good car in general. Yeah it might be able to go over 200 but it doesn’t mean it’s a good car.
the most important word in history is "CORVETTE"
"The viper is not a supercar"
Viper: beats almost every supercar on the nurburgring.
In fact, the viper is a fucking hypercar with an engine as big as my tub. Long life to American supercars, from italy 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
Man, American Cars are not my preference, but even I feel insulted everytime someone said that.
Viper is a fuckin supercar
The top ten fastest around the nuburgring is currently European currently helped by Lamborghini for road production cars
Lamborghini design that V10 engines Viper for Chrysler 30years ago, so if it wasn't for Lamborghini there wouldn't be any Dodge Viper 😉....
@@rarashamash1216 dodge already had the car 90% developed. Plus dodge changed the designif the engine after 2002. If Lamborghini wasn't around it would have had a different engine.
Ford ain't sh*t, you ain't sh*t, I ain't sh*t, we ain't sh*t, now we're back to ford ain't sh*t
Was going to say the meme "wait it's all corvette? Always has been!" but you beat me to it.
this is not the first time the british and americans had to save france from a german invasion this is the most hilarious shit i heard in a youtube video your amazing bro as a 16 year old this is amazing keep this up bladed
You finna turn every fanboy into those 'no❤️😌' girls 😂😂
I'm an american. I like american cars as well.
but Ford is not in the same level as Merc in terms racing. Merc's are F1 world champs from 2014 to 2020. Mercedes' racing technology is miles above.
True! Theyve been killing it in other racing series as well.
Because ford doesn't participate in f1 anymore this somehow discredits thier racing credentials, What are you on about?🤨
Im not American but owning a lot of both of the cars b4 i start (Im a degenerate weeb b4 i got into cars so i generally will defend Japanese cars with my life its my duty so u know im not siding with any of them or hating eu or us made ones) but American cars are just shit some of them beat the c class but they all get beaten by the e class new ones although Some flagships but that's what i think
@@Axel_sms Are we still talking about racing here, I’m confused?
@@randyusher619 yeh a lot if eu cars are better in that aspect too but im just taking about over all Every thing that makes a car a Car :)
this aged poorly
@Justin Nowaczynski The SSC thing aged poorly, the rest didn’t.
really love this channel hahaha great vids bro
Just the other day I saw a video that said something in the lines of "LS swapped E36 sounds exactly like a corvette"." The LS is made out of LS
