2 million dollar baby



Anyone familiar with the Bugatti Veyron knows it's like no other car in the world. How can this car get any better you ask. Enter the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport, the competition version of the already competition- like base model Veyron.

How can you make a Super Sport version of a car that already has 4 turbochargers, 16 cylinders and 1001 horsepower behind the wheel. First larger turbochargers were added, intercoolers were revised, new air ducts, air dams, and diffusers for cooling and sleeker aerodynamics. The carbon fiber chassis and body takes weight off the car but it still tops at over 4, 000 pounds. The two V-8's share a crankshaft the quad- turbo 8.0 liter W-16 engine puts out 1200bhp @ 6400 rpm. The Veyron Super Sport runs 0-200-0 mph in 25.6 seconds, this is the same time it takes the 2011 Corvette ZR1 to go from 0-150-0 mph. The Veyron SS broke the production car land speed record at an unbelievable 268 mph.

A fast car definitely not for racing or road trips but one that adds a big kick to a fun weekend.  To own such a collector piece you'll have to drop a whopping 2.6 Million dollars.
