First of all I like the car.... but I'm dissappointed that still they did not test the car in thier track. Why?, because Bugatti wont let them, Why again? because it's not really that fast in the bend considering it has 1000hp. As the evidence of their 7:40 nur lap time. GT-R overtaken this in some nurburgring vidz. With 1000hp that should be the fastest production car or even faster than other modified version of Zonda Porsche etc. For a $1 million 1000hp supercar Bugatti has the responsibility to be the fastest in Nurburgring and not just the top end speed. And I believed this car was beaten by a modified 1000hpViper too.

this is a sweat car, comparing it to the 1000hp Viper you can beat on it all you want and have the warranty where the Viper sooner or later will give up. But still I don't think anyone who owns it beats the crap out of it like they do in the Top Gear or Jeremy himself.

You need to watch Tiff drive it, theres a problem in what you said. The only way to crash the car, (in a corner), is by comming into a corner to hot and heavy. There's a million sensors that sence traction and add power as it comes out, so it car wont understeer or oversteer. Basically you come into a corner, turn, go full throttle, and just steer, the car does the rest. This is also how an F1 car works, from my understanding. Now, you can shut this feature off by a button under the dashboard. Unfortunately it sends a satallite signal back to Bugatti saying that you did this, and if something goed wrong and yyou crash your warrentee is VOID....Sounds like Mitsu, only theirs is void the first time you start the car after its left the dealership.

Im pretty sure that the Vayron goes like 10.1 at somewhere in the low 130's

It's not a Top Gear episode. It's just a separate DVD that he did.
