ahhhh yes a repost but a good one. My all time favorite car.

sleek, sexy, original and unique. sure the Ultiamte aero may be fast but a v8TT is ancient technology.

A W16 quad turbo engine and a chassis thats 4200 that can out handel a lotus elise is something so much more

ehh, the handling aspect is very interesting, but 16 cylinders with 4 turbos and only 1000 horsepower, come on now thats just to much displacement and to many turbos to not be some where around 2000 hp. I call underachieving, as far as the engine goes ofcourse

Ummm, how many 1000hp cars do you know of that are 100% street legal, drive like a daily driver, do 0-60 in 2.8 seconds, and will last as long as or longer than any factory car out there? Underachieving, I think not. You have the wrong goal in mind if you think their goal was to build the highest hp racing car in the world.

It's not HUGE displacement numbers. I think it's 8liters. And from what I read somewhere the engine itself can produce 3000 hp but with all the losses in drivetrain, cooling (10 intercoolers), adiabatic efficiencies, etc...that number comes out as 1000rwhp.
Not sure how's that's not impressive but whatever.

Another one!! 0-253mph!!

I am in such awe of this car!!!! Not a smiley in the world can say what I feel!!!!11 THis is beyond nipple hardening goose bumps..

i think you meant to say it has 10 radiators, not intercoolers

LOL, are you serious? The Bug doesn't handle anywhere near as good as a Elise or any supercar for that matter. No matter how good it might be it is a fat 4200 pound pig. It isn't tossable. Psyhics can tell you that.

If you ask me it's heavy weight isn't it's problem, it's the fact that it is UGLY is.

1000 hp is not impressive im sorry. 8 litres is pretty big and 4 turbos sounds like overkill, think about it 4 turbos. I know there goal wasnt to make the most hp but im sure they could have done it with two turbos. My point is that they make 1000 hp on this very extravagant motor but here in america we make twin turbo big blocks that make more power. I just think that the motor itself is very unimpressive.

and to quote you the 2002 lingenfelter vette goes 0-60 in under two seconds (1.97) to be exact, and thats with less displacement and two turbos, so impressive, i think not. Now mind you i am only reffering to the engine

XxGarbSxX

I think the point of using the 4 turbos on the Veyron was to increase driveability. Yea, you can get more power with less turbos, but you lose a certain level of driveability when you get to certain power numbers that have to be oh-so-high in the rpm range of the engine.

And not to dis the Bugatti or anything, but didn't the Cadillac 16 make 1000hp n/a? Yea, it was just a concept to show off DOD, but I remember reading that it made1000hp. And the size of the engine made for a really nice and long hood, too. Long hood usually = sexy car.

4 turbos, now think of it this way guys.

each tubo runs 3 psi thats only 12 psi on that motor.

Low boost= fast spooling, no turbo lag. Ntice it enver takes ny amount of time to get it moving? its an engineering mavel especially to make a 4200lb car handel the way it does and make such an intricate engine function on a day to day basis for many years to come.

Also lets keep in mind this car runs on PUMP GAS and passes ALL emissions, including the very strict ones overseas.

they could have also done like porsche turbo's and done variable vain technology

I think your wasting your breath on some of these guys bro! There's reasons why this drive train has won award after award as an engineering marvel and been recognized as a tremendous feat in engineering.
There's also a reason why they didn't throw in a twin turbo LSX block pushing 18 psi. Reliability, driveability, flexability, etc...
As all things in this world it's not for everyone. Only way to impress them would be to turn the boost up until you start finding weak links in the drive train. wonder what 20 psi on thing would look like.

Well they are building the Veyron GT which is rumoed to be lighter, and packing over 1200 hp

well first off you can throw everything that you have said out the window when you look at the price tag and realize that 250 miles an hour really isnt worth that much. What they go for 1.5 mil, ill buy a house, put three kids through colleges, buy a twin turbo lsx running 20 psi and have a lot left over. So they can win there awards but it really doesnt mean much if its not practical.
