i'd take the mclaren f1

looks better in my opinion and who needs a veyron? the veyron looks so ugly, in my town is a company which is testing cars for vw and they have also the veyron as a spider and i dont like it.
furthermore the mclaren has a bmw engine ;)

McLaren F1, I just like it more. The Veyron is awesome and all but I've just always loved the McLaren since I played NFS or something like that

Last time I checked, curb weight on the Bugatti was about 4100, maybe that's the older model you are referring to. Either way, Mclaren all the way. Reasons: after ten years of it being out of production, people are asking whether you would have it or a brand new Bugatti. The Mclaren seems much more performance oriented too, the Bugatti was made to say it has 1000 hp from the factory and can drain its fuel at top speed in twelve minutes, woo hoo... Just my $0.02

No contest.

Veyron

Having checked out a McLaren up close and personal, the interior is a complete POS.

McLaren, not because I like it, but because I dislike the Veyron more.
I don't like Ferraris either.
I'd rather drive a Murciélago, or a BMW M1.

Things to consider:
- Which one gets better fuel mileage?
- Which one has more trunk space?
- Which one can carry more people?
- Which one has more in-cabin noise?
- Which one accelerates smoother?
- Do they both have A/C?
- Are either of them restricted to only an SMG or "clutchless" style gearbox?
- Which one would cost more to insure?
- Is it easier to maintain one car vs the other?
