I really don't like that exhaust outlet in the middle like that. How do you put a towball on it for pulling the family caravan whan they build it like that? Scratch that car off my list. Does anyone know how Ferarri's handle pulling a mid-sized caravan?

Jeebus, that critter'd make a gremlin look purdy. |

I believe they run a tad under 200K with gm around 8mpg. Really though... If you have to ask, then it's not for you. Someone who buys this car doesn't give a rats ass about $ or fuel economy. |

Sorry, just being a wise-guy. |

A friend of mine works with/for Cats Exotics.....he has a Murci too....baby blue.

The Veyron was designed by Lotus in the UK (Lotus do a lot of design work for other companies). I know an engineer who worked on the Veyron and the Lotus Elise (among others), and he says that from a design point of view, the Veyron was one of the most uninteresting projects he worked on at Lotus. |

If had the scratch oh dear jesus. I think I'd donate some organs for one of those....who needs 2 kidneys.... |

|
Must suck to spend that kind of money on a car and then get smoked by some teenager on his $4K, secondhand, ten year old literbike....
|
|
I wouldn't ever envy anyone on a crotch rocket...they can have it |
|
|
You think a kidney and a spleen would cover the down payment?
Throw in a lung while we're at it. |
|
|
|
|
I stand corrected... The last I heard about that car it was still a prototype.... |
|
|
The kind that makes you sound ghey when you talk about it! WELL PLAYED DANONLY! Just curious, how well does that Lambo offroad? ('tis purdy though) |

|
It looks like shit. I'd much rather have a Ferrari Enzo. Of course even if I were a billionaire the most car i'd probably buy would be a BMW M5.
|
|
Right...one to shit in and the other to cover it up with, no? |
|
|
What coincidence, some nut case completely totalled out/destroyed one of those Enzos in Malibu Calif. |
|
|
Oh heck, give me a new 2006 Z06 'Vette and several high-end NFA weapons, instead.
I'll suffer the humiliation. |
|
i hang around the z06 forum on corvetteforum.com and there was a guy there talking about buying two (yes 2) veyron's... one for show (garage queen) and one for go (daily driver).. |
|
|
And all those people laughed when I painted my truck in primer grey. I told 'em it was a factory Lambo color!
|
|
2 Veyron's??? At $1.7mil~ a copy I doubt it... |
|
|
forget the cost..... you think he could FIND two? i doubt he could order them from the factory |

While these cars are excellent....being married, my wife would kind of frown on my owning a P*ssy Magnet.
Additionally, I have come to realize as I am beginning my 5th decade of life....getting my ass (and knees) into and out of a car like that is an exercise in futility---kind of embarassing when you have to fall out of the car on your hands and knees, just to exit the vehicle. I'd tend towards an M5 (given high $$ to spend on a car). Probably would never even push that car to it's limits. Of course if the DNA test DOES come back that I am Bill Gates long lost son from that brief interlude when he was 15....... |

I wish they kept the previous name "Diablo". It's a much cooler name, and you can call the dealer's service department your "satanic mechanics"

with that ground clearance it probably doesn't do to well on the dirt roads. but who is gonna drive that on a dirt road? |
|||
|
this way you can say it is a "Bat out of hell" , etc etc |
|
|
I'll take it.
And sell it and get a 2007 Mustang GT500 and a matching Ford GT. Woody |
|
hey, ol' boy that owned that Enzo that got thrashed by Dietrich owned two of those, one red and one black. Hell, you have to be invited to buy one and he had a pair. Plenty of folks have the werewithal to own 3.2 million in autos just because they can. edit: I feel like a high roller in my Honda |
