Yes quite a fantastic car, remember Clarkson driving it,he said it was the best car he has ever driven, or was likely too ever again.

Wow, I´d really like to drive that car once at 407 km/h !!!!!!!!

A bit of sad news, The other day was the first totaled Bugatti. 1000 hp is really too much to handle

I told my wife to start saving to get me one of these for my next "significant" birthday, like she did with the Sub for my 50th. Unfortunately, at $1,700,000.00, that birthday will likely by my 120th!

AMAZING!!

But I wonder which highway, motorway or even Autobahn in the whole wide world would be suitable for a top speed of 250 mph?

Have you read about the three drive modes? For the highest speed setting, you are required to inspect all four tires and the aerodynamics (to insure that they have properly deployed.)

You also have to insert a special key

Upon doing so, the car changes the way it looks. Scoops go inside the body, wing gets retracted, and the car lowers itself.
It can not be driven around town in that setting as the engine would overheat severely.

1.8 miles per gallon at top speed, out of gas in 12 minutes. Tires blow up at 15 minute mark.

I've done near 220mph on my bike, and I love it.
I'd have NO problem taking that to the limit!
