That thing looks cool :)

Have they just upped the boost or got like a bored out engine or what?

And I wouldn't mind the new Pagani Zonda R Clubsport, but like he'll I'd say no to a Veyron!

Remember, Clarkson said they handle like a Lotus!

I agree about the whale thing - but having a car that IS the power of powers would be pretty epic.

Sure straight line acceleration may get boring in ya 400hp jappa - but when there's 1200hp on tap and you can get from 0-60 in 2.8 seconds (the older 1000hp model that is - I imagine the 1200hp one will be even quicker!), I doubt it'd get old.....

2.45 seconds ;)

All up with fluids and driver, the original Veyron tipped the scales at 2 ton, which is a considerable amount of weight, but still manages to get round corners pretty quick comparitively speaking!

at 415kmh you'd appreciate every gram of that two tonne, as well as every ugly curve.

Didn't this car just crush the world production car record by 11 mph and upped it to 267 mph or something stupidly fast like that.

Yes. As the report said, it was able to average a top speed of 431kmph - which = 269mph :P

An open top???? Somehow I think that will cause a problem for the driver at those speeds. :P
