I thought it'd be something interesting to discuss, guess I was right except I thought we'd be discussing the car not how you think I don't understand physics and "the real world."

...and how many aero tt's were avaliable and sold at the ~600k price tag? my point is that the bugatti is being priced at roughly 2M to achieve 267 mph, now joe scmhoe says he can and will produce a car that will ho almost 40mph faster and out perform it in every way for 1.5M less. id like to see it happen, but if it does believe the price will easily exceed 2M and there will be less than 50 offered, and it wont be street legal.

There were 24 ultimate aeros produced. twenty four.

And I'm sure they feel just like a $600k 250mph car will. Like a junky kit car made out of parts bin parts.

Bugatti is quality. Some cheap no name kit car manufacture builds just that. Its all in what you want.

That's what I think is interesting about it, I don't think it will happen, when I first read it I thought the guy was nuts actually. I just think it's interesting that he's going to attempt this. I think the reasoning behind the low price is that they save on R&D by using existing technology, because I can't even imagine the amount of money Bugatti/VW spent just in R&D for the Veyron and Veyron SS.

but that would mean he either has a bugatti at his disposal or has bribed someone with top tier information into giving him their secrets. neither of which i believe.

Jokes in response:

1) yeah but I bet braking from 60-0 in that camry fucks your shit up.

2) that's a hell of an unintended acceleration.

Couldn't decide between the two.

huh? he's not using Bugatti technology, I think his plan is just to combine existing technology from other sources (like a parts bin lol) which saves on R&D which Bugatti/VW to the best of my knowledge built the Veyron from the ground up pretty much.
