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!" [This message has been edited by alex (edited March 13, 2001).] IP: Logged |

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 ------------------ Thereīs no substitute for efficiently engineered cubic inches(or centimeters) IP: Logged |

Kinda ugly, but it is too fast, to overlook that would be ridiculous. I don't think this is the best supercar though.------------------ '93 Camaro Z28 A4: CAI '92 VW Corrado VR6: EIP Intake Manifold Neuspeed P-chip Neuspeed Intake Eibach Springs Konig Monsoons 17" Custom Exhaust Stage III Clutch IP: Logged |

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?------------------ Porsche lover down to the golf clubs. IP: Logged |

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. ------------------ Porsche lover down to the golf clubs.

I wouldn't mind that much hp, but I still think it is ugly(not that ugly, but doesn't look good IMO).------------------ '93 Camaro Z28 A4: CAI '92 VW Corrado VR6: EIP Intake Manifold Neuspeed P-chip Neuspeed Intake Eibach Springs Konig Monsoons 17" Custom Exhaust Stage III Clutch Yamaha YZF600 IP: Logged |
