Have you ever noticed that they don;t tend to test the Buggati through the corners?

[ardvark84]

@NickAW1 They did, don't worry, it is faster there then most of any sort of road legal cars.

@ardvark84 Fun bit here is when they put the McLaren F1 vs the Bugatti they had to do like 20 laps before the Bugatti could win, it isn't great at all through the corners a much older car beats it around the track most of the time.

Not saying it is a bad car, just has it flaws like any of them, though the worst flaw in my sole opinion is the looks it is damn ugly :)

[ardvark84]

@Lintary Well... Gumpert isn't pretty either. New Supersport is faster on the track so your point is no longer good.

[ardvark84]

@Exowar01 It was a joke. I think that Germans make best cars in the world. Maybe a bit boring but best anyway.

[YeeSoest]

Please stop arguing "the veyron is ugly"

The design was never meant to please the broad masses, the designer's to-do-list was a) funtionality b) impressive shape c) absolutely UNIQUE looks, nowhere near ANY OTHER CAR (as it was supposed to underline the performance!)

a)The car does 253mph with any old driver behind the wheel, handles well and safe and offers two passengers a comfy joyride with A/C, CD etc.

b) ever stood near it? *goosebumps*

c) name a similar looking/performing car!

get it?

@USCroxmysox No not really 300 mph is a massive target. What you have to realise is that air resistance becomes such a hugh factor it is like driving though a gel not a gas. That is why 155mph takes 250BHP and just 100 more mph to 250 mph takes 1000 BHP. To do 300 mph a further 50mph you would need monumental amounts of power in a road car with regular areodynamics.
