European sports cars, you either love them or hate them. As of now, Bugatti has led the pack with its new introduction to the market, the Veyron.
The problem is, you have to dig very, very deep in your pocket to be able to have one of these high-end Euro sports car. At a price range of 1.5 – 2 million US dollars, it has become one of the most expensive cars ever built.
Beauty of Bugatti Veyron
There have been many criticisms about the Veyron before its launching. Critics say it is just a publicity gimmick, claiming to be able to achieve a 250 mph speed.
This 1000-horsepower car rose to fame, and it did what its makers claimed it can do, reaching 252 mph at a track facility.
Since its first presentation to the public, the Bugatti Veyron caught everyone’s eye with its sleek look, its grey and blue color and its distinctive shape, sort of a half shell, holding the ground for dear life.
The Veyron is a 16-cylinder supercar that does not only have good looks and sex appeal, but it packs one of the most powerful engine ever put into a production car. If you want to go to technical details, it will take us a lot of time and a lot of ooohs and aaahs.
Just imagine this, 16 500-cc dirt bikes, all going at once. If you had ridden a 500-cc dirt bike, you now have 1/16 of an idea how powerful Veyron’s engine is. The fact that the engine is so powerful, that it gives off tremendous heat able to melt any nearby car unfortunate enough to park alongside it.
To compensate for that, Veyron has 10 radiators (on its first stages, it has 27) conveniently and artfully hidden along its bodywork.
But it’s not all muscle and speed that accentuates the Veyron from its competition. Inside this rolling rocket is a luxurious interior seldom, if ever, found in a sports car of its caliber. With its dove-skin upholstery, high-quality leather and carpets (it has even a solid gold shift knob), you would take no less on shelling out your 2 million dollars.
Why Go For Bugatti Veyron
The Bugatti Veyron is on every man’s Christmas wish list. It oozes with power, appeal and luxury. It is the literal translation of the phrase “big toys for big boys” albeit a very expensive toy.
If you are asking if it can fit the family dog or its the fuel ratio, it is obvious this car is not for you. A head turner and a speed freak, this superb example of a car truly is exceptional. Pray real hard Santa has a very, very deep pocket this Christmas.
