The 1,000 horsepower Bugatti can accelerate from 0 to 60mph in 2.5 seconds.

You would think for that kind of money they could have finished the paint job.

Q- Whats a Bugatti and a 914 have in common?

A- Rust (A millon dollar car with rust? Does gold rust?)

It'll rub out.

Did Howard get an oil line?

I think I can fix it.

1 down...11 to go

I highly doubt the story. Who would rent such a rare car? You would have to give up a kidney before you could get a $1.5 million dollar car out for a joy ride.

Note to self: Start search e-bay for a new engine.......daddy has a 914 just waiting for 1000 hp.........

Dietrich, Where Are You?

This is the story from one source:

Car:
2006 Bugatti Veyron 16.4

Description:
This is the first Bugatti Veyron to be wrecked on the streets. It is the fastest and most expensive production vehichle in history, list price about $1.6 million.

The Veyron was doing around 100mph when it spun out of control, spinning 3 times before hitting a Vauxhall Astra with a 7-month pregnant woman inside. It then smashed into trees up a 3 foot embankment.

The Bugatti driver was with a younger male passenger. The car was taken away by the same truck driver who had delivered it to the owner just a week earlier. The owner is a businessman in his 40's who runs a rental car company with his brothers.

Location:
B375 near Chertsey, Surrey, United Kingdom

Hmmmm....a Bugatti Veyron repairable? I'll call Certi-fit and see if they sell any aftermarket Taiwanese parts to fix it up? Maybe I can get it back on the road for less than a million?

Sort of like Jay Leno spinning a Carrera GT... but at least he was on a race track and didn't hit anything... sooo... maybe a GT is the better car?

what a dick. if some jackass endagered my pregnant wife because of his recklessness i would have to be physically restrained from killing him.

Anybody else see the Top Gear test of the Veyron?

"at top speed the tires only will last 15 minutes, but you only have enough gas for 12 minutes"

I was at a club last night in newport and there was a Veyron parked outside. One of my buddies saw the owner a last week and got a ride. Last night he remembered who he was and talked to us for a few minutes. He seemed like a cool guy... of course having a 1.6 million dollar car helps the cool status.

..according to last months (March) Playboy, "national luxury automotive service Putnam Leasing offers the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 ===== $25,775 a month".
