Not quite as fast as a Bugatti Veyron. But not quite as ugly either.
All of them pre-sold.
Thats a fancy tractor.
Pretty expensive, but it COULD end up being cheaper than a Chevy Volt.
Bottom that baby out on a driveway and fixing it will probably cost a quarter mil.
It seems like about half of these exotics wind up in collections, and the other half wrecked at high speed.
Great another car you can’t drive. This will really get the OWS crowd going.
"...and the secret name is.........."
What does an oil-change cost on this thing?
Years ago, a buddy of mine had a friend who bought a Countach in LA, got in it and drove to Palm Springs. Rented a hotel and showered as the heat from the motor at his back left him in a puddle of sweat.
Walked out to the car and saw a puddle of oil flowing out. Called the dealer and asked WTF?
Dealer read him the riot act for actually driving the car that distance. Then refused to cover the fee for towing it back to LA.
Made me want to run out and buy two....
Those Ghinis are fast!
Spend $80-ish K on a Shelby Mustang GT500 and you have pretty much the same thing.
I’m a Koenigsegg Gal myself. Top speed of the 2013 Agera R is a nice 273 mph. Mr Peel is a Bugatti Veyron Super Sport fan. Top speed about 288. Hennessey Venom GT goes like a rocket, and its a bargain at under $2 million. I certainly wouldn’t take up precious garage space with that Lambo 3.9 Mil and a mere 220 mph. Ha!
A couple years ago I ran into a small traffic jam at a backroads intersection in the Philly suburbs. When I got to the intersection I saw what was casuing the jam: there was this beautiful new-looking Lamborghini with its flashers on and the hood up. Next to the car, on the sidewalk, was a 60-ish looking fellow dressed like a Rockefeller, and he was slowly pacing back and forth obviously waiting for triple A to show up. That had to be embarrassing as hell. I chuckled.
My Father bought an Oldsmobile Delta 88 in 1965. It had a 425 and positraction. If I remember right it was 370 HP.
It was powerful but nothing like those fantastic sports cars. On the other hand, it lasted through Daddy, my older Brother then me. I finally sold it with over 200,000 miles on it.
Except for the water pump (a very inexpensive repair) and the starter, it never had any real repairs. I did have to replace the AC’s seal. After I took the unit off the car, I had a mechanic pull the seal as he had the tool which you had to use to pull it. It took him around 10 seconds to pull it and he charged me a dollar.
The real good part is it would cruise comfortably at 80mph on the interstate. It was just loafing along while I was driving in air conditioned comfort.
When I floored it, it roared like a lion and pushed you back in the seat.
What a car it was. I would give anything to have it back brand new.
I’m going to have trouble getting in and out of that beauty. Lucky I’ve got the Navigator for long trips.
Does it have cup holders? I hate spilling my coffee at 200mph.
PPfftt.
Ive seen better Hot Wheels than that gruesome thing.
