The ultimate car

[Dragonbreathp9d]

253 mph, stock. Luxury interior. Watch the video from the Top Gear guys, and you'll fall in love too (sorry I dont have link).

[MrCoffee]

1. wrong, this is the ultimate car

[formerrepuke]

2. I could pay off my mortgage with that.. and get a really nice new car with the change....

[EstimatedProphet]

3. What's the damage?

[Dragonbreathp9d]

4. oh not much really

juat a million (approx)

[Shine]

5. Nice lines. Is it only a 2-seater, though?

MrShine used to have a convertible Mazda RX7. It was a sweet ride, but we called it "The Selfish Car" b/c it only seated two people and wasn't exactly "family-friendly". :D

:hi:

6. Is that a Bugatti?

Saw one in a magazine once and said.........oooooooooooh yes, I like it. However even if I could afford one I just couldn't spend that kind of money on a car.

[Blue_Tires]

7. too bad it's uglier than sin's grandma

i'm not doubting the performance, but there is nary a stretch of road in the world where any potential buyers of that car can safely reach 200, much less 250...

better ways to spend a million and a half, imo...but i have never understood the filthy rich, and i won't now

[Dragonbreathp9d]

9. really? I think its gorgeous

and yeah, not many roads you can do that (which is why Top Gear used the once top secret volkswagen test site). But I best I could get it up to that on my drive from Denton, Tx to Santa Fe, NM. Have you ever seen flat? Talk about a boring drive

[Deep13]

8. It needs roof racks so I can take the old Xmas tree to the dump. nt

[Hugin]

12. Aren't -WE- the practical ones?

:rofl:

[Rabrrrrrr]

14. And a trailer hitch, for God's sake. I got pigs to haul!

[mikeytherat]

10. Just don't let some idiot borrow it:

[JVS]

18. Quoth Nelson: Ha-ha!

[Blue_Tires]

26. that will buff right out!

[auburngrad82]

11. Ultimate car is a 1949 Mercury Coupe

[BlooInBloo]

13. I've been liking the Tesla lately.... Mean & Green....

[Tyler Durden]

15. You're ALL wrong:

Cobra. There is no substitute.

[Dragonbreathp9d]

17. oooooo

yeah, ok, I retract. Except ya gotta go blue with the white stripes

[Tyler Durden]

20. Actually, I prefer jet black, no stripes...

...or VERY dark red.

There was a guy in the last town with a black 427 original. GOD. Just listening to him START that thing gave me a woody.

[Dragonbreathp9d]

22. haha, I'd love to hear that hum

or better yet feel the vibrations under my.... oh, sorry

[Tyler Durden]

24. more like a low deep rumbling ROAR.

[BlooInBloo]

19. Well hell...

... Then make mine a GT-40, please...

[Midlodemocrat]

16. Don't be ridiculous. THIS is the ultimate car.

[Tyler Durden]

21. YOU are a VERY SICK person.

PRACTICAL, but SICK.

[Bake]

25. HAHAHA! I was waiting for that!

The MiniVan!!

:rofl:

Bake

[QMPMom]

27. It's my van! ('cept mine is the Dodge version.)

Same color and everything!

[flvegan]

23. The Saleen S7 is a better choice than the Veyron

The Bugatti is 2 or 3 tenths faster 0-60 and in the 1/4. Top speed doesn't matter unless you live in Nevada or something, and I promise that any less than a professional driver on any actual road will shit him/herself at 253 mph.

Besides, mine's built in America and I can probably get it fixed at my local Ford dealer.

Now, what to do with that million bucks I saved by going with the Saleen?

[DS1]

28. Nah. I'll take a used McLaren F1 over one of those

Thanks!

[Ellen Forradalom]

29. Mom always wanted a Morgan Plus Four

with a crash box.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

30. 1954 BMW 502 - gorgeous

But then I have tons of cars I consider ultimate cars. Strangely, they all seem to be oldies.

[mikeytherat]

35. I like the 502, but I LOVE the 507:

One day...

[smtpgirl]

31. Holden Efigy

Now this car is BAD ASS

Every guy that I show this picture to wants to know who made it and what it is, my next car:

1960 Impala convertible, a true mafia car

[PittPoliSci]

32. is that the bugatti?

i love top gear. good episode too.

[cobalt1999]

33. This is the one I want...

The ATOM

[Dragonbreathp9d]

34. hell yeah!

I was about to post about that one too! I love Top Gear, and that is an awesome fuckin car! CHEAP too!

[cobalt1999]

36. I don't think there is a US dealership, although there is one in Canada.

It would be so much fun to drive that around.
