When I was a kid, this doodlehed that managed the dairy queen use to think he was a big shot cus he had a 67 T top stingray and would tell my brother “go wash my car”
He would pick me up, we would yell “HELL RIDE”! and eventually wash the car LOL
Who gives the keys to a vette to a 16 year old? LOL

Twenty-three years later, the car still holds the record
I saw the Bugatti Veyron go faster than 250MPH on Top Gear, and others have beaten it.

Apparently it has had a line of owners and the wonderful Black Adder/Mr Bean is happy to be 4th owner.
Hey Leno was 3rd in line LOL

The Hennessy briefly eclipsed the veyron until it was reincarnated as the chiron, but that is only because production had ceased to focus on the chiron

Yes, I thought the writer was wrong too. I just posted the title. But, none of the supercars from the mid 1990’s till now has entered the 24 Hours of Le Mans and won overall (not just in class) except the McLaren F1. I think that is why they command such a high price. Corvette regularly wins their class and it is impressive, but they fall far short of overall wins.

Saw a McLaren in the Parking lot of the Wallys Desert Turtle Restuaraunt (yes you heard that right) in Rancho Mirage CA last week. It was during a Black Tie YMCA Charity Event. A lot of money out that way.

Wow, did you notice the maintenance costs? 30,000 pounds every 6,000 miles? That's 5 pounds per mile in maintenance. (I don't know what that is in dollars but I'm sure that it's a lot.)
But if Blackadder says to get one, I'm in.

yes. British actor Rowan Atkinson aka Mr. bean. He’s actually quite the car enthusiast and has substantial wealth to support his interest.

I saw the Bugatti Veyron go faster than 250MPH on Top Gear, and others have beaten it.It might not have the top end of the Veyron but the Koenigsegg One:1 blows the Veyron away in any acceleration situation. Christian Keonigsegg has said that his goal with the One:1 is to have the quickest car in the world at any acceleration interval between 0-250 mph. When you have 1320 hp to the ground in a vehicle that weighs less than 3,000 pounds, fierce acceleration is a given. Engineering estimates put the top end in the mid-270's which seem realistic given how quickly it can get to 250.
