i dont think its a very impressive feat imo. its running a huge r16 engine and it only puts out 1000 hp? there are quite a few 4 cylinders that have creamed that number. and as for it being a "luxury sport", unless you are 4'10" you will not find anything luxurious about sitting inside that thing.
This motor makes 1000hp in stock form...1000.....its been said that the engine is capable of HUGE amounts of power, but cooling the engine becomes a problem.
To say that this is "Not very impressive" is ignorant. Is it a status symbol?? sure it is, just like any lambo or Ferrari. Pretty much any Civic with a decent turbo set up can give a Ferrari’ a run for its money in a straight line. Is the Civic in the same league as far as track performance or as cool as a Ferrari??....well I certainly don’t think so.

If you were worth a 100 million, the price of the car is no different then the cost of an EVO to you!

i feel like its just a status car, people buy it to say "ooo look i have a fat wallet so i got a bugatti". the eb-110 was so much cooler. and for a million dollars you could buy any other car, build it to be better, and then buy 20 civics just for ****s.

LOL, come on guys, LOGIC
the 1/4 mile run is on stock tires..... its not on racing slicks
take a 1000+ whp horse evo = gutted weight = times ranging from mid 8's to consistent low 9's...
your comparing a street tire buggatti - heavy - 1000 engine and its running 10 flat in 100% stock form?!
your comparison is gay.... like said before the ignorance of some evo owners is mind blowing...
you can not even remotely put the evo in the same league as a veryon?! To even think about saying them in the same sentence is insane.

Does that mean that those crap cars are better than evos? M3s? Lambos? Ferraris? Why do you own an evo instead of any of those cars? By your logic, your evo was a waste of money.

Makes me a little happy to know that with three less turbos, 12 less cylinders, and that the amount I've spent in mods wouldn't pay for just one of those Veyron's tires - I'm only 4 tenths off it's ET. As happy as that makes me, I'd drive my Evo off the nearest cliff if it meant that I'd get to own a Veyron.
