Found a vid of a Lexus LF-A testing at the Ring in Germany.

Yeah, thought that was limited to the trucker and RV crowd! Scary to see numbers like that for a car!

The Bugatti's engine is two V8 Porsche engines combined to make a W16. The thing has 10 radiators!. At top speed the Bugatti can only run for 12 minutes before the gas tank runs dry.

Thats 26.4 gallons in 12 minutes! You would be sprinting from gas station to gas station. hehe Every 50 miles roughly. 2 MPG.

Black Yaris · 08-03-2007, 09:52 AM

253 mph is the point, 50 miles in 12 minutes is the point, fastest production car ever produced is the point...

On the note of copycat I really think that for the most part body orginality is almost spent, really...just like music....the songs and cars sample from everyone and everything to the point that you might as well call this one a hybrid Supra: The Remix

BTW...I would be in line for one...I have 80 grand in home equity to make the down payment

Because it's a work of art, it's the world's fastest, and there are only 300 of them.

Ah the old untrue penis compensation theory. That is so totally untrue. I drive a little Yaris and I still have a small wiener.

well it kinda works in our favor, you know? Smart girls will look at you and think, look at this guy, he must be pretty well-packaged if he feels no shame in driving that dinky little car

Of course, once you get them in bed, different story maybe
