Honestly... That is my dream car right there. I've been following its production from concept to reality now and I am still flabbergasted as to its performance. In their original models and pre-production models they had a claimed 1000+ horsepower and 944+ ft-lbs of torque. I guess they bumped it down for reliability? :lol:

That thing has sheer unrelenting power behind it.

Anyone wanna give me 1.2 million bucks?

Good lawd.  That is rediculous.  I'm going to get an NBA contract so I can buy one (finally motivated to practice).

I think I measured out the engine displacement a while back and it came out to something like 8.1L or something. Jet boats have engines that big.

an 8 liter, quad turbo, W-16 engine with a top speed of 250 mph! I want to see a movie where there is a car chase with this in it. I can just see the cops in their crappy Crown Vics as this vanishes into the horizen, leaving a sonic boom (okay that would have to be a little faster I guess)

yeah that would be kick ass.  I want to see a video of that car in action to hear and see it actually moving.  I bet it sounds awesome, esp when all those turbos kick into action.

Guess who's actually seen and sat in one already. :thumb: This was one of the very few vehicles we got in that we were never allowed to drive in any way, shape, or form.

How the heck did you get to sit in one, let alone see one?!! Do you work for Bugatti or are you a pro golfer and haven't told us yet.  If I sat in one and the keys were in it, lets just say there would be temptations.

If I had 1.2 mil to burn, I certainly wouldn't buy a stupid car.   :roll:



Much better!   :mrgreen:

I've always thought the 206 was a sexy looking little machine.
Every zero you add to the tolerance adds a zero to the price.

If the product "fails" will the product liability insurance pay for the "failure" until it turns 18?

If I had that I would fly it to school and park it on the roof 8)







The Bugatti could kick it's but though

I'd buy an old rally car.  Take it back to the factory and tell them to spend the rest of the money on the car to make it as fast as that Bugatti and go do 4WD burnouts all day.

That's what I would do.

Or a 240Z with a RB26DETT swap, or the new V8 out of the Titans twin turbo'ed.

That would be sick, too...
