ya right.. maybe a Skyline but again Bugatti has its own place.
Also I dont think 1 off drag special tuned cars can be legal daily drives also, Veyron easliy meets emisson standards etc with cats etc.
It needs 4 turboes, 16 cylinders with lots of radiators to make 1000 bhp look easy.
Hmmm ..we never think of stopping power, I was also not thinking of Veyron's superior braking.
