If I ever freak out and buy and expensive car, this will be it. I don't care about the track abilities, this car is unique and bad ***. I would not risk balling it up on the track. Buy an F40 or CGT for that.

I have a feeling that anyone purchasing one of these works of art isn't worried about comparison shopping with a Carrera GT. I'd guess this would be yet another addition to a fine lineup in their collection. IMHO.

It is about 100x better looking then the CGT in my opinion. This car would definetly be a show stopper compared to any of the current super cars. The Carrera GT excluded, becuase it hardly resembles a super car.

I love the Bugattis and would not mind having one of those EB110s either. I would trade my Diablo and 355 for an EB if I could find one. These cars are works of art that actually have function over just form.

You know different strokes for different folks. I think the Carrera GT is 100 times better looking than this fat, heavy pig.

Pure class. . . minus chromes and Nascar stickers. JK.

It does look good in blue. I like CGT also though. Apples and oranges though.

I think you don't really understand what people are saying buddy. These cars are not even in the same class. As you mention this thing i a heavy pig. It's competition is NOT a CGT/Enzo or anything of the sort. It has ZERO competition. Is it the rich mans ultimate GT car. That's all it is. It's not a car to go around the track at the fastest time. It's a car to get out and enjoy on the street. Heavy or light.

not to mention one is a 2 million dollar car while the other is a measily 500K

Yep, this is the ultimate I made it statement, not to mention the fatest. You wont see another one coming or going.

With regard to function over form, how much hp would it take to get a CGT over 250 mph. After 200 or so, doesn't the extra power needed to attain an extra 10 mph start becoming expontential. Would a CGT attain 250 mph with 1,000 hp? If it did, would it be stable and could if handle high speed braking? I don't know the answers, but think the questions are interesting.
