So Bugatti announced in Geneva that the Veyron will be powered by a 1001 hp engine!
Take a look at the full story here:
http://www.fantasycars.com/1/2001/Bugatti1001/bugatti1001.html

Do you think the Veyron might just be the ultimate supercar?

"To this day, I have car executives coming up to me and saying, "Tell me, Mr. Lutz, exactly what market research led you to build the Viper? That research must certainly have been quite in-depth." My response: "We didn't do any research at all - we just did it!"

hey, thats a lot of hp ...its 1-0-0-1 hp...thatīs dragsters territory...even the the Speed 12 800hp looks "normal" compared to this....but the best sport car is another story

Kinda ugly, but it is too fast, to overlook that would be ridiculous. I don't think this is the best supercar though.

Kinda ugly? what the heck is wrong wit you.
It will definitely be one of the fastest, and if the weight issnt as huge as the engine it might just be able to be tghe best supercar. Does anyone have anything on its handling?

I wuz justlookin throught the new news and the Edonis would be another good future supercar to compare with this, the F1 (well, IMO oI think all listed beat it), and the F50/

Oh, and another thing bout the EDonis, its engineeers were from Bugatti.

I wouldn't mind that much hp, but I still think it is ugly(not that ugly, but doesn't look good IMO).

Next to the Pagani zonda and the Carrera GT this may well be the bestlooking car thre is IMO, the Chiron look not bad neither.
