I'd take the S7 either way. It's crazy sick.

the top speed in the saleen s7 twin turbo (249 mph) is second under the bugatti (253mph) and thats at the s7s redline! i wonder if it could take the bugatti with taller gears?

2) the Bugatti Veyron or 3) one of the Koenigsegg cars(they tune Lambo's)

Well the S7 is under 3000#'s where the Bugatti Veyron weighs in at 4300#'s. So the S7 may take it.

They also do not make the S7 in N/A anymore.
The S7's stock gears are 3.70's. So it is possible to swap those out to a 4.10 +. Although im not sure if you really would want to because of the Top Speed might get cut.

If you are running the McLaren against a S7 in the 1/4 mile, the S7 will win.
McLaren 1/4: 11.6@125.0
S7 1/4: 10.5@145.0

Although some specs vary source to source, this is the closest I got for all of them. I'd still take the S7, well for 1 I think it's sweet, plus it's half the cost of the others and can run right along if not right past em.
