I did the same thing with my $2 million Bugatti. It must be a design flaw.

Faster, better looking, sells for a relatively cheaper 6 or 700K and is made in the USA.

Oh wow, I just noticed from the pic that the Bugati was set on downforce mode. This is full power mode. It actually requires a second key be turned on. It reconfigures the spoiler (as shown) and other parts of the car for full power (such as dropping ground clearance to about 60mm). This guy was cruising around 1000hp in a setting only advised to do on a professional course by a professional driver.

Looks like an insurance scam to me. Why the hell didn’t he turn off the engine for crying out loud? It’s not like it was sinking to the bottom of the bay.

That was when you were out crusing with Christie Brinkley wasn’t it?

Was it Simon Cowell?Simon Cowell probably doesn't frequent Lufkin, Texas. But you are right that he has a Bugatti.
To: mnehring
There are supposed to be only about ten of these that have sold in the US (Ralph Lauren and Jay Leno each have one), go figure that one would be in Lufkin, Texas of all places.Simply put, oil or gas.
This millionaire now owns a piece of rusted junk. Gee whiz!

"That was when you were out crusing with Christie Brinkley wasnt it?"Yes it was!! How did you know? It was worth the $2 million just to watch her walk out of the lake soaked.
