A car for $1 Million?

Have you heard of a Bugatti Veyron by Volkswagon? I stumbled upon an article on cnn.com.

Ever since I got my VW Jetta, I've been more interested in cars. I don't know why... I find myself looking at more cars on the road and reading about cars on the internet. Go figure.

The Bugatti Veyron... pretty awesome car! Here are the specs:

Engine: 7993 cc; 16 cylinders in a W
Power: 1001 bhp @ 6000 rpm
Torque: 922 lb ft @ 2200 rpm
Transmission: 7-speed DSG, manual and auto
Fuel: 11.7 mph (combined)
CO2: 574g/km
Acceleration: 0 - 62 mph in 2.5 sec.
Top Speed: 253 mph

Insane!!

Here, take a look at it too:

Do an image search on google.com, and see all the colors it comes in, and see the luxurios interior.

SAWEET!!!!

Wow, girl... you get a new car, and now you are looking into trading it in for a million dollar one, eh? Time to look for a new husband while you're at it (like Bill Gates!).

Nice car!

No car is worth that much money.

That's because when Bill Gates was busy designing computer programs and making licensing agreements, I was busy running around on a soccer field. Who had better priorities?

I'd take a cool multi-billion over these soccer legs any day!

Well, I guess with multi-billion dollars, you can hire a plastic surgeon to give you soccer legs. It's like having your cake and eat it too.

Sounds like a nice car, but I really don't care for the paint job in the photo on that page you linked to.

Checke out the joint venture between Toyota and Lotus. I think it's called the Lotus Elise. Under $100,000.00, plenty of power, small, fast and bad ass-ed.

Check it out;

Hi, Randy,

Those are cool! Small, but very cool. There's some guy who drives one that I see every few days on the way to work. Nice little car.

Back when I was just learing to drive, I really wanted a Lotus, mainly the Elite or the Elan.

It still has the same basic paint scheme, but with different colors. It does look better with these colors, though.
