RC,
didnt u have that scary driving episode just last month where u almost crashed? Im sure ur a good driver, but i almost ask "what would u do" with a veyron, esp since it really has no particular purpose; it cant handle too well at 4500 lbs.....Id rather a CGT or Enzo personally.



Well, I had that scary episode in a 355 HP Carrera S because I had a very very bad day, I was tired, stressed, etc. But as always: "almost" is almost. I drove a 996 Turbo with 543 HP (paper) before, so even if it doesn't come even close to the Veyron, I know the smell of a super sportscar.

The Veyron is a great masterpiece of technology. Piech always was THE technician in the Porsche family, a very good engineer with an open mind. Although many people find the Carrera GT to be a fascinating car (and I agree), I would have preferred to see more of a 959 successor from Porsche. But maybe...who knows...???!
