It's not exactly a head-to-head is it?

Veyron - comfy, uber-GT car that weighs as much as a small house and has millions of dollars worth of fancy fittings to cosset the driver and impress the proletariat.
GT9 - Harsh, widowmaking, stripped out, lightweight, race-oriented, not-quite-streetable maniac of a car that will sooner tear your head off and spit it out the exhaust than give you a relaxed ride.
ohhhh....man. I love it when you talk dirty. [evil]

Personally I'd take the Veyron because I'd rather ride in the utmost luxury at stupendous speeds than, you know, die flying ass-forward off the road.

We went to the Concorso Italiano car show in Scottsdale, AZ this past weekend and got the take a look at the Veyron up close and see what 1.8 million dollars will buy. It's nice, but for that much money I'd rather have a garage with a few classic Ferrari's and Lambo's to choose from. What good is it to be able to drive 256 mph when (other than the track) you can't possably drive that fast unless you're that idiot from Malibu who wrecked the Enzo back in '06.



[laugh] ....idiot:



I just googled the accident and a witness was quoted as saying that the car went airborn which is apperantly why the accident happened.....

....you mean that an Enzo doesn't come with a flying conversion (a la BTTF2)??

^ That Enzo was wrecked by the dumbass/con artist who started the Gizmondo gaming system....I think he's in prison now.

That seems a little extreme...

Just castrated and hanged by the neck until dead, dead, dead should suffice.
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

There is already a production car that is faster than the veyron... i can't remember the name, but it is RWD IIRC and it has a style more like the Saleen, I think it looks good.  I will find the information and post it up, Jay Leno did some test driving of it.  Plus it is a lot cheaper than a veyron and an american company.

Are you thinking of the Koenigsegg CCX?

Vector?  New car hasn't been proven yet (even built...I thought it was just a press release about what was to be) and the old one wasn't exactly a success.

btw, the last review of the veyron I read discussed the ten radiators being rather loud, and the sound volume at speed was anything but luxurious.  One of the loudest cars tested.

Which doesn't mean it's bad...just that we're all blowing smoke until any of us actually drive one.

posters on the wall are cool and all but......

It's still buy a flounder a drink month

Not to broken record too badly here, but are you thinking, perhaps, of this?
