It's the ultimate car for the ultimate price. Oh what would it be like to drive the fastest production car on the street? We would probably run it into something. I'm sure advance driving lessons comes with the purchase of that car. Kev...

"the Veyron 16·4 is powered by a 1001-horsepower W16 quad-turbocharged 8.0-liter engine with all-wheel drive"

i've never seen Best Motoring review a high end European exotic (Enzo, Zonda, McLaren F1, etc) you're more likely to see this Bugatti being put through the wringer by Tiff or Jeremy Clarkson :D

I love the mechanical aspects of it, but that is the most butt-ugly super-car i have ever seen in my life. Why buy that when i could buy one of these for 1/50th the price and still look just as rich: http://www.euroworksltd.com/Attack/

plus i would have much more fun driving a car that i wouldnt have to worry about. You know, like i could actually park it somewhere without having to worry about someone doing $100,000 worth of damage from just breaking a taillight or some stupid crap like that.

if you want real bang for your buck, take a look at the Westfield XTR2

http://www.xtr2.net

it may be a bit ugly, but this car is amazing!

it's powered by the Suzuki Hayabusa engine, weighs 440kg, 0 - 60 in 3.1sec, and costs only £24,700!

(this car beat the Pagani Zonda lap time in a TopGear review, and it's street legal)

16·4 is powered by a 1001-horsepower W16 quad-turbocharged 8.0-liter engine with all-wheel drive. Bugatti claims this new super car will reach a speed of 252 mph. Acceleration is also impressive–the Veyron can reach 180 mph in just 14 seconds!

faster then the skyline Vspec.. lol

It's ugly...no wait...its hideous. Power is good, but again styling isn't quite there...
