Tooo Slow for me - wouldnt pull u out of bed.

Only Joking, lovely car wish i could afford one.

And thats only pocket change isnt it.

0-60 in 2.9s? How did they manage that with 2wd? Very fast though

wudnt drive it. id just w*nk all ova it. its fit. rwd. it wudnt turn a corner

HOWWWW RUDE

That is one of the most gorgeous cars i have ever seen.

Wow!

The rear end looks a bit like a corvette

quality, thats fit

Seen it before cant remember where, think it was on the viper owners club. very nice car. if it was faster then the bugatti would the papers be raving all over it.

I belive the Bugatti is limited to its top speed

I can see it now, the Bugatti board meeting...

"Hmmm, this is a fast car, shall we limit the top speed to reduce the risk of the owners killing themselves?"

"Yeah, what a good idea, what about a nice sensible 250mph?"

"Sounds good"

I mean, if your gonna limit at 250mph, is there really any point

limited or not limited simple fact is if u were doin 250mph in ur 840,000rips were of buggati the 120,000 new dodge viper wud slowly crawl past u by 5mph,

how gutted wud that make u feel

either way ud both b dead before u had a chance to tel ya mates what hapened

I think Id rather have the older McLaren F1 anyways :rolleyes:

The bugatti is limited bexause,the spoiler has to be retracted to go for top speed,thus no downforce,no drag,but thats gives the car the potential to take off if enough air gets under it,this viper will be all over the papers soon

Its actually a Dodge Viper Hennessey Venom 1000 Coupe - a company which specialises in modifying Vipers.

They are only making 24 of them, and as its not "out of the factory" with 1000bhp I dont think it can be classed as a production car

Wonder if an aftermarket tuning company could squeeze a few more geegees out of the Bugatti?


Dodge Viper Hennessey Venom 1000 Coupe

Yes also the bugatti costs £5million to make and they sell them for 850k.

$5 million to make?

The would of been the original concepts and designs etc.

Would only need to sell about 50 to more than cover costs.

I think the point may be missed here

Heres some text taken from the Top Gear site, which probably explains it best

Bugatti Veyron

It started as an off-the-cuff comment by VW boss Ferdinand Piëch about how great it would be to make a car that could do 400kph and had a 1000 horsepower. The Veyron has managed to achieve the impossible; a car so good even Jeremy couldn't find fault with it. It's so good, the Stig cried after driving it.

And that's what makes the Veyron special, it's an engineering feat. Apparently VW are losing money on every one they sell. But thank goodness, in this day and age that someone is prepared to create something, not just to make money, but because they want to see if they can.

But its better than that, its not just a way of proving their engineering prowess, it's a seriously great car and Jeremy has not stopped going on about just how great. The statistics alone make a man weak at the knees. For example, the Veyron has staggeringly good brakes, they can bring the car from 250mph to a complete stop in just ten seconds. It gets even better, at full speed, the Bugatti will empty its 100 litre fuel tank in just 12 minutes. It goes without saying, a 100 litres of petrol costs £100.

The fact is though, very few people will ever own a Veyron. It does, after all, cost the large part of a million quid. But that isn't the point. The point is that it is to cars what Concorde was for planes. Something that will be recorded in the history books as a feat of human endeavour.

Thats a cost of £5,000,000 (5 Million) per car to make and they sell them for £850,000 therefore losing approx 4.15 million pounds per car they make and sell

Talk about a lost leader.......

it cost $5million to develop, its no where near that to manufacture. if it is someone at VW has a fat wallet cos there pocketing some of it.

That not how i understood it mate, i was of the impression that Each car cost £5,000,000 to manufacture and not just to develop.

I distinctavly remember it stating they are loosing over £4,000,000 per car they sell.

It was a personal challenge from one of the bosses and they knew they would stand a huge huge loss even before they started the project.

if it cost 5 million to develop thats pretty cheap for a car that fine.5 million per car is a lot more like it.As theyre only selling a few then all the money they spent could not be made back unless they sold the car for 6 times the price,or made shit loads more cars.I dont think each car cost 5 million,i just think that,for instance,theyve made only 50 cars and the whole project cost 250 million including research,developement,advertising, and,ultimately, building the fleet. Hence the maths makes it 5 million pound per car.I reckon they could build 1 more car on the priduciton line and from start to finish it prob wouldnt even cost half a million.Thats my understanding

f**k me that viper better have traction control! otherwise the rear wheels will be spinning all the way to 250! the bugatti will beat it to 250 no doubt, and the viper would take some time to even get close to it.

Id rather av the Bugatti like but thats awesome. Very fast

Wow always like the viper ! but thats worth every bit of money !
wonder wat 200 mph feels like forget 250

Its nothin special!... i've been 550mph before

Boeing 747 lol

luv the viper, but id rather have the veyron there's more 2 it than there is 2 the viper the veyron has been planned very carefully to make it the way it is brakes,suspension,engine etc its an engineering masterpiece.
