Dodge Tomahawk, 350 mph (560 km/h)
The Dodge Tomahawk is a Viper V-10 based motorcycle-- a 500 horsepower engine with four wheels.
The two front wheels and two rear wheels, make it look like a motorised quadricycle rather than a typical motorcycle.
According to official specifications 0-60 mph times have been estimated at 1.75 seconds, with a top speed of 350 mph. But there are also reports that the top speed is 676 km/h (about 420 mph).
Chrysler sold nine replicas through Neiman Marcus, for up to $555,000 each. The motorcycles cannot be legally driven on public roads.
The unusual vehicle was launched at the 2003 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, Michigan.
