The Bugatti Veyron.....it has 1001 Horsepower to be exact! [Eek!]  -

The Bugatti nameplate was bought by Volkswagen some time ago and they are behind the car. The car will cost about $1,200,000. The engine is W16(CYLINDERS) and has four turbochargers! It will go from 0-186mph in under 14 seconds and has an estimated top speed of 252mph! [Eek!] They will build 300 of the cars. If anyone on the board is planning on buying one..PLEASE TAKE ME FOR A RIDE!

Hmmmm...it's obviously fast and most supercars are pretty exotic looking but I can't help but think of an old vacuum cleaner when I see it.

Whoever said you couldn't run away from your problems obviously wasn't driving an SS.

You REALLY need to see the car in person. I think it's a beautiful exotic sports car. I've seen the concept versions and the production versions. I think it's an awesome car. Too bad I'll never be able to afford one.

Check your contacts or get an appointment with your eye doctor.... [Wink] In all reality to me it is ugly but you have your own view, thats what makes this world a great place.

I read an article about it tonight at work and the writer said it has horrible handling, worse than any other car or truck he had driven.
