The Veyron is cool at all but it is one ugly S.O.B. Plus you have the potential to need to deal with the 42 different hydraulic systems, the 10 radiators. Plus with the junk DSG transmission it seems to take alot of fun out of it. Also not saying the car is not fast because it is no doubt but come on. It has a 8.0 quad turbo 16 cyl engine. Wouldn't you think that with that displacement and that amount of turbo's you would see more than 1000hp. If I ever got a chance to do anything with one(which will never happen) you would see me taking the 4 turbo's off it and slapping a couple of Garrett GT55's on it. Pump up that hp to like 2000 to 2500 and see how 253mph just gets toasted

Well, the drag times I posted were actual quarter mile times, so yes. Keep in mind that the Veyron wasn't built for quarter mile times, but rather top speed. And I'd take an S7 TT over a Veyron any day. The Veyron might be quicker from 0-100 and have a much higher top speed, but it looks terrible, and when are you going to be driving 253mph anyway? Then again, I'd take an SSC Ultimate Aero TT (the current world's fastest & most powerful production car) over either car any day... at least the Ultimate Aero looks good (though not quite as good as an S7 lol)

here's the car I want: has the looks, raw power, and is just a beast:

Actually 8mpg city and like 11mpg highway. At full speed a tank of gas will last 7 minutes, the tires will start to pull themselves apart at 7 minutes and 45 seconds, then the hydrolic systems would start to fail at 8 minutes and 10 seconds. If for some retarded reason you are willing to keep doing 253mph after all of your tires have peeled themselves off the rims then when the hydrolic systems fail the car would lift off the ground at those speeds. Kinda like the wrecks you see in the Le Mans races with the GT LM cars.

And the Venom 1000 looks like it's always excited. Looks are subjective anyway
Besides, like I said earlier, I'd take an Ultimate Aero TT over any of the other cars... and don't bother telling me the Venom 1000 is better than the world's fastest and most powerful production car
*edit: To further illustrate what i'm saying about the Venom 1000 looking excited, I made this
