I couldn't help mention about this excentric Bugatti on my blog. I will not reiterate what has been said about it, but will summarize the facts:
0-60mph in 2.5 secs
1001 hp
253mph max speed
16cyl
4 turbo chargers
If you have enough gas you can drive from Canada to Mexico in 5 hours. However, at 250mph you will empty the gas tank in 12 minutes. Very nice toy but probably only a few hedge fund managers will be able to get it. Mother nature will be happy to know that there won't be many of these gaz guzzling babies driving around becuase one costs a mere 1.4 million and only 300 of them will be manufactured by the Volkswagen owned Bugatti. Yes, it is the people's car manufacturer, who made the decision to engineer and made this not very "people" car.
