Bugatti Veyron

The mighty Bugatti Veyron is how this car is referred to!! However it's a very compact car compared to the normal sedans that we are used to see on the streets. This is the fastest production car in the world is what I have heard though I have seen a forwarded email which mentioned that there is another car (SSC Ultimate Aero TT) which goes a little faster than this. The mighty Bugatti Veyron car has got the killer looks and the awesome power. I guess I am inclinded to like good looking powerful stuff.

The Bugatti Veyron 16.4 is currently the second fastest, second most powerful, street-legal car in the world and the fastest, most powerful, most expensive, street-legal full production car ever made. It can produce an excess of 1001 horsepower with a top speed of 253 mph. This speed and power was eclisped by the SSC Ultimate Aero TT, which claimed the “Fastest Production Car” world record with a top speed of 257.45 mph and an average speed of 256.19 mph on September 13 2007, later verified by Guinness World Records on October 9, 2007. The Bugatti Veyron reached full production in September 2005. The car is built by Volkswagen AG subsidiary Bugatti Automobiles SAS in its Molsheim (Alsace, France) factory and is sold under the French Bugatti marque. It is named after French racing driver Pierre Veyron, who won the 24 hours of Le Mans in 1939 while racing for the original Bugatti firm.
