Bugatti Veyron (Autoweek)

[Jarvis]

i'm so mad since it's 1.2 million

Last I heard, even with that pricing VW isn't making any money off these. They're actually probably losing money.

WOW!! i'd believe it though

actually, in the grand scheme, the publicity VW gets from it will probably help

Much like factory-backed racing. Look at the kind of money Toyota is throwing at their F1 program as they duke it out with Honda. Toyota doesn't even make a bonafide 'sports car' currently.

I think that Top Gear should get their hands on one of these monsters and let the Stig see what he can do with it. There's a video on google of the Enzo doing a 1:19.0 around their test track (the Carrera GT did it in 1:19.8 ). Under ideal conditions, I bet this thing could nix the Enzo....not sure by how much though.

Some people just don't get it, who said someone is going to buy it just to track it?

People that buy these aren't going to miss that money, they bought it because they can, functionality and aside.

No one that buys this will actually drive it. It will go straight into their car collections just like 99% of the Enzos and McLarens.

I dunno, it's a neat exercise, but the whole thing just leaves me cold, like most VAG vehicles.

Man, what an appropriate acronym.

VAGina

Bugatti Veyron = vagina car

Jarvis + Veyron = would drive everyday of the week if he owned one.

[Jarvis]

No I'd sell it.

And buy 2400 $500 E30s. I already have 2.

[325Projectz]

You wouldn't drive it once?

Go straight to the store in a $500 car to buy a .99 cent for sale sign for a $1.2 mil car?

[Jarvis]

Stop taking me so seriously.

Of course I would drive it for a while. I'd party in it with hookers for like 2 weeks straight. Then I'd sell it and buy something useful.

[Rob]

I'd try to park it in front of the Zentrum

[325Projectz]

All I needed to hear.

But the Veyron is something thing useful, you wouldn't need to buy hookers. Go park it in front of Playboy Mansion, you'll be cleaning snail tracks off of it all the time.

[Il Duce]

simmer down hoss, I didn't see anyone who said "its not enough"

Jarvis did say "its too much", and made a good argument for his thoughts. Besides, one mans opinion. *shrug*

don't call me hoss. whatever the fuck that means. :)
