186k is a far cry from the million dollar cost of entry for the Veyron. Better platform too, IMHO. Good stuff David

243 MPH is suicide except on a closed track. Even to fast for the autoban

Veyron can still beat it.

As far as a better platform, I dont know. The guys from Top Gear said that car is so smooth and composed at 200+mph compared to others that feel like they are going to fly apart at 200. But I would rather have 4+ of those than 1 Bugatti.

I just want to tell you both good luck, and we're all counting on you.
