If I had a couple million to spend on a car I would get either a Bugatti or a Koenigsegg (probably the Bugatti).
These new F1-inspired, dual clutch gearboxes are nothing like the slushboxes of the past.
The Veyron is sublime, isn’t it? The car is a work of art. There is *something* about it that edges it over the Koenigsegg (which is a fine car and I wish that I could drive someday).
I love Bugatti’s website where you can play with the different color combinations.
A Mosler would also be fun to take around on a track...
It makes a nice station csr..dontcha think?
That's a nice and very fine Sunday Go-To-Meetin' ride though. One could also go for one of those Lamboughini Diablo's, Dauer EB110, or even one of those spiffy McLaren F1's for that casual over the hill and to Grandma's we go just as nicely (and in style too I may well add).
That new 'Vette ZR1 engine looks like its got something going for it. Probably would give a Callaway Sledgehammer 'Vette some competition, eh? They were talkin' 'bout the ZR1 earlier on this threadI fail to see why second-best oneself though.
When this is ALL one really needs in a "street legal" automobile plus it would be amusing for a little while. Well, o.k. for a LOT of while 8>)
But if I had druthers, which I can't afford to have, nothing beats this for some seriously getting to work on time, or making the door opening for Black Thursday in November (when seconds matter). That thud you're hearing as you pull up in that car is not the sound of hundereds of panties collectively hitting the pavement, but that many female hads impacting the ground as they fall in a collective swoon.
I don't know what it is about that car, perhaps the vanity mirror on the passenger visor, the stylish headlights, or fancy two-tone rims, perhaps its just plain sumpin', dunno. But it definitely has something goin' for it in the chick department. Maybe its that special hood decal that makes the car really fast. Dunno.
