if you could sell your house AND afford that thing... you are a pimp.

I dont think I will ever put a cool mill into an automobile.

I would have to settle for the 999hp version

That turbocharged engine isn't just turbocharged, its QUAD TURBOCHARGED!!!
Not only that, the 0-60 time is 3 seconds flat and the op speed is like 250 mph.

Oh yeah, MT said it would cost around 850,000. You can sell two houses and still not have enough money for that thing.

We do less time stealing the dang thing, getting arrested, first time offense will be probation w/1000 hours community service. Do your probation, pay your fees on-time, do the CC, keep your nose clean... You have a brand new Bugatti....

Not saying to DO that, just saying what's possible...assuming the guy or girl you snitched this from doesn't kill you....which is likely....

Batmobile all the way, only faster

This is a monster ride, but come on, this is old news. Car and Driver wrote about this in May for the June issue.

Where is that poster with the : Hello, and welcome to last week!

Yeah actually, it's older than that. But VW just confirmed the W-16 and some of the specs. Now your going to tell me how the 1001 HP is not the SAE number, and that it really translates to 987 HP in the US.

I realize it's difficult to stay ahead of you Car and Driver guys.


By the way, a lot of folks here don't subscribe.
