Thumbs up BUGATTI VEYRON on South Beach

8 Liters
4 Turbos
16 Cylinders
10 Radiators
1001 UNDER-RATED bhp

and I thought I would NEVER see one in person . . . I was wrong

Sitting at the corner of 8th and Ocean was a single-tone (unusual since most are two-tone in color) Veyron 16-4

I don't normally take photos or video of cars . . . but I HAD to get footage of this 1.5 mil, 253 mph speed-limited, +29x mph capable-during-development BEAST

The bodyguard on duty did an excellent job of remaining as inconspicuous as possible considering the detail. Having worked in the industry, I recognized him sizing me up immediately as I approached

Once I started talking about the car and relating my knowledge about it's specs/performance, he and I talked at length afterward

I'll attach the numerous photos/videos when I transfer them to the computer tomorrow

I saw a black and a silver one of those (not together, at 2 different times) for sale in a MB dealership in south FL (off 826 near the Dade-Broward border). Sexy as hell, but ridiculously expensive!!!
