I will be talking about the top ten fastest cars in the world (as per 2020)! I love cars and am happy to share them with all of you. The pictures of each car will be below each description. I will also be providing a fun fact with each car. Last thing, please tell me which one was your favorite in the comments! Just so you know I like the Bugatti Chiron Sport, Bugatti Veyron Super Sport, and the Hennessey Venom F5.
