something you have consider about the veyron's looks is that it was designed for aerodynamics. per jeremy clarkson's research...
when they dropped that 1100hp dual audiV8 engine with 4 turbos into the veyron, it was 30km short of its goal. and for every km they wanted, that would be an extra 8hp. Do the math=thats 240 extra hp they would need. Already packing 4 turbos, not much room to work with. So they played with the aerodynamics of the car enough to the point they reached their goal.
That is fantastic aerodynamic engineering imo...unlike the evo's wing which actually BENDS at speeds beyond 180mph

The Koenigsegg ccx reaches 250 with an 8 cylinder and twin superchargers and its 10x better looking than the veyron..

CCX: imo: ugly as hell. the car is definetely lighter, i look at this as more of a kit-car in production than a bugatti

Something like that.
WE can test a bunch of different ways.....
First we get a room together, and get all the guys drunk. Then bring in the chicks.
Whoever starts talking about how big their ***** are, and how much money they make....you guessed it......douche bag tax.
Then we grab a bunch of nice cars, fast ones.....and put them in front of a crowd. The *** who crashes the car....you guessed it........MORE douchebag tax.
Then we get a wardrobe. Whoever picks out the crap, and dresses like this

Now, I mean....can't they have their own individual hair styles?
Definitely some EXTRA DB taxation there.
And FINALLY.....put them all behind a keyboard, and onto their favorite BBS. The one who starts a fight.....douchebag tax.
There ya go......all these RichardBags who inherit, win, or are gifted money and (shudders) earned it...sometimes just don't deserve it.
Then it could've just been an accident (you know, the original poster's Bugatti pic.....)
