SSC Ultimate Aero

I was just cruising around the web this afternoon and I came across this car. Made by a small American manufacturer, Shelby Super Cars (no relation to Carol Shelby from what I've heard), using a GM engine as a base. This is their description of the car
Quote:
The SSC Ultimate Aero sets the benchmark for supercars today. Achieving tremendous power via its twin turbo V-8 engine, it produces 1,183 horsepower and 1094 ft.-lbs. of torque making the Ultimate Aero the world’s most powerful production car. Combining this proprietary power plant with a lightweight, aerodynamic body and the best handling systems available SSC delivers a vehicle that not only eclipses all other cars but stands OFFICIALLY as the "World’s Fastest Production Car". Simply put, there is no other production car that can match the performance of the Ultimate Aero.
Shelby Super Cars

Has anyone else heard of this thing?
