but the veyron isn't your run of the mill 1000bhp car is it,i agree that it has a monster engine,but that much power and speed cannot be achieved by a "minamalist" appraoch can it,something has to be BIG,the veyron is not all about power,it has a unique aero-dynamic design which without it cannot hope to achieve the claimed top speed...what i'm trying to say is that the buggatti is not just a car with a big engine BUT it is a complete all-round supercar unlike that american car(which nobody cares about) which now has the top speed record.....i think there wont be anything like it made again in the near future and we should all be glad that it exists.
