Another TopGear: 2006 BUGATTI VEYRON 16.4

For 840,000 British Pounds, or 1,486,546 American Dollars, you can get this:

2006 BUGATTI VEYRON 16.4 <<< CLICK LINK


Numbers:

Engine: 8.0L W16 (4.0L V8 x2 Attached), Quad-Turbocharged
Power: 1001 Bhp / 6000 RPM
Torque: 923 / 2200-5500 RPM
Driveline: All Wheel Drive

...and yes, It's road legal (at least in Britain), although I doubt the states will ever see a single one.

So my question is: Will they have it at the local VW dealership and can I test drive it What better way to die then behind the wheel of the most expensive, fastest, and most powerful production car in the world

I hereby nominate Jeremy Clarkson as the Luckiest Bastard on earth.
He get's to drive car's every day that are offensively, outrageously expensive and or exotic. If he doesn't like it, he actually SAY'S SO!!!! Imagine what the guys at Maseratti thought when he went on TV and trash talked their newest 100K+ car

He's driven the Enzo, the Porsche Carrera GT, The Koenigsegg CCR, the Murcielago, now the Veyron... Yup, he's a lucky bastard indeed.

Rod.

There's a Veyron on display right now at the LA Auto Show. I was seriously tempted to take a spontaneous trip down there, a pilgrimage if you will, to behold the nirvana of cars.

That is so unfair! The San Diego and LA shows are so close together that we always get stiffed on the really cool cars. The manufactures always have the same excuse... "We couldn't have the car ready for LA if we brought it down here to SD first". LAME!

Hey at least you're still a lot closer to LA than I am. They hardly bring those super rare cars up here either!
