The Buggy Bugatti Veyron






It is really amazing what you see at the racetrack. In my meandering around the track yesterday I came across a Bugatti Veyron. For those that are not familiar with a Bugatti Veyron it is made in Northern Italy and Volkswagen owns the company. The car is the fastest street legal car you can buy.

Some facts about the Bugatti Veyron:
Engine displacement: 8.0 litre, 488.8 cu.in.
Engine configuration: W16
Power: 1,001 Horse power
Gas mileage (highway): 10 mpg
Top speed: 254 mph
¼ mile: 10.2 seconds @ 143 mph
0 to 60 mph: 2.5 seconds
Cost: $1,300,000.00
This particular car was driven to Utah from Colorado and the front of the car has bugs on it. I like it when cars are driven and not trailer queens. Cars are meant to be driven.

The Bugatti is made in France and not in Italy
( In an Asatian town called Molsheim )
Just for your information.
