I don't think Bugatti has produced any cars for 60 years.

 

yeah they have.

 

That car is so beautiful wish I was a freaking millionaire and more to buy that car.

 

Clarification: The Bugatti Marque died in 1957 and was rebirthed for the 1991 introduction of the Bugatti EB110. I wasn't aware that was sold in the US, however.

 

EB110 mmmmmm quad turbo V12 mmmmmmmm

 

EB110 was sold in the US, however only 13 of them made it over here. Many EB110's were left uncompleted, and then were sold at auction to collectors.

 

VW's secret 400km/h cars:
Exclusive spy pics!

At last! After almost a week of speculation and sightings of VW's super Bugatti Veyrons in the Western-Cape, Wheels24 obtained exclusive spy photos of these exciting cars. It also seems that these supercars are being tested in South Africa, and are not here for a photographic shoot.

A Southern Cape family took photos of the three sensational Bugatti Veyrons. The Greeff family, Marianne, Derick and Annette, spotted these cars on the scenic coastal route between Betty's Bay and Gordon's Bay.

The photos also show that there are special stickers on the Veyrons, which read: "High speed test vehicle - Approved by Government." This indicates that the cars are in South Africa for test purposes.

The Veyrons was first spotted earlier this week on the Cape's West Coast and then a day later another Wheels24 reader saw them in the Overberg district on the N2 near Grabouw.

There are no badges on the three test vehicles but it is unmistakably Bugattis Veyrons.

The Bugatti Veyron is the hottest car in Volkswagen's arsenal. It features an 8-litre W16 (2xV8) muscle engine with a power output of 736kW at 6 000 rpm. Torque is a mighty 1250Nm.

The car has a top speed of 406km/h and accelerates from 0-300km/h in less than 14 seconds!

Holy Crap!!! 14 seconds to 186 mph!

Whoa, hold up a second. 406 km/h is 251.72 mph. That's insane.

The ACO classes (which are used by ALMS, FIA Sportscar, et al) don't really provide for a car such as this so I don't see it having a major motorsport career. I mean I guess it might somehow be able to get snuck into GTS but that's usually the realm of Vipers, C5-Rs, Ferrari Maranellos, Saleen S7Rs and such.

Oh and it's definitely not as pretty as the McLaren F1.

Any word on pricing and/or weight? I know it's supposed to have like four turbos and 1000 hp...
