well looks like I know what im asking for christmas

i think theres an octopus hiding in that engine bay


i'll take 2 please

that car is from 05...?

still like the look of the veyron better

faster and better looking
i like
what company made the motor?
like is it an lsx or a ford motor or somethin else?

Personally I think the Veyron looks 1000x better. That thing looks like somebody let a ricer loose on some fiberglas.

ford focus headlights FTL

PJ, tell that to lamborghini with their celica headlights and side windows and overall shape on the Gallardo lol.


On the other hand....you have other fingers.

Sadly It looks like a really bad Lambo Diablo kit car.

Not a bad car to copy design wise but, it just loses crediblity

Well, it's not just looks. The Bugatti feels like a private airliner at top speed. Quiet, controlled and refined. There's no cracking or creaking coming from the body as the air pressure bends it. It doesn't squirrel all over the road. Ect. I'm sure the Ultimate Aero is faster, but it's probably got to be like being in a F18 during an afterburner run. Loud and raw. That's an awesome feeling as well, and more fun than a barrell of porn stars, but you can get the same thing most supercars at their top speed. What's amazing about the Veyron isn't it's ultimate power, but it's capacity to do so while feeling totally planted.

Then again, you can almost buy 3 Ultimate Aero's for the Bugatti's sticker price. So it's a trade off.

I don't like the looks of either of them, but really: Veyron's sticker Vs. Ultimate Aero SC/8T... I'll take the Aero, and furnish a garage to store it in.

I went to a carshow a couple of years ago and they had a SSC Aero on display. The brochure indicated that only 25 "production" version would built. The Aero actually look better in person than in pictures, however it still didnt create the "oh my gawd" factor that the McLaren F1 or the Ferrari Enzo FXX did at the same car show. The one car I still havent seen in person is a Mosler MT900S.

whats the sticker on it? veyron is 1.5 million isnt it? 4 turbos and 16 cylinders? this car did it with half the cylinders and half the turbos..

I kept expecting to hear "meep-meep"

cool! also the 254mph record may be broken some day soon by Barabus TKR, the car reportedly has a top speed of 270mph!

it looks so S7-ish

^If Brabus is relying on Mercedes-Benz to power the TKR, SSC & Bugatti will have nothing to worry about.

but for 500k and can do 270 and 0-60 in 1.6 seconds.. thats pretty good considering what a lambo, ferrari and veyron go for.
