Please go watch top gears episode of the veyron.. that thing is the shizzle...
Its not practical however, that thing chows a full tank of fuel in 12 minutes at 400kph and the tyres lasts around 15 minutes. This is impressive considering the car has aircon power steering and the works... I believe the veyrons top speed is 450kph however limited at 400. Top gear reached 409kph, i believe thats its true speed.
However its still a engineering masterpiece.. Teh germanz rule...

The second edition or whatever does 450kph, can't remember where I read that. And the Veyron is an Italian car. Bugatti is an Italian company, the fact they are owned by VW still doesn't make them German. It's like saying Rolls Royce is German.Rish_zn wrote:I believe the veyrons top speed is 450kph however limited at 400. Top gear reached 409kph, i believe thats its true speed.

ummm... the germans MADE it??
Just coz a Chevvy Spark as a Chevrolet badge on it, doesn't mean the Koreans didn't make it. Marque is Italian tho, fair enuff.
As for flat out for 12mins the cost of the wear and tear (tyres etc etc) could probably buy you an A8/S-Class/7Series!!! haha. not that the owners are bothered with such lowly cars

Sorry boet but you wrong. Bugatti may have originally been Italian, but not any more. Its is pure 100% German.

Wiki wrote:The Veyron's head designer was Hartmut Warkuss with exterior designed by Jozef Kabaň of Volkswagen rather than Giorgetto Giugiaro of ItalDesign who had handled the three prior Bugatti concepts too.

OK, it's an Italian company taken over by Germans. And their only recently made good car is made by Germans. (not surprising)

A friend gave me this link of a bugatti Veyron that ran out of petrol, being pushed to the petrol station.
