What a strange exhaust note. I don't find anything endearing about hearing the blowoff valve on a million dollar supercar. It might be OK on a riced-out Civic, but not on a Bugatti.

I want to see the top gear review on it. 4 turbos, 16 cylinders, 1001hp. Insane

i distinctly remember seeing this video my freshman year of college which was 2002-2003

edit:

Year: 2003

this was the prototype model, not the final

Unlike other sites they actually do it right ;)

I realize it's not built for this, but what kind of 1/4 does it run?

Is it just me or does that guy drive like a wuss? Did he ever even go 3/4 throttle? There's no way he went full throttle. You'd think he would've at least done a full out standing start or something.

That wasn't any different than watching someone out on a country drive. Sure they had a monster car, but they didn't do anything with it.

i think because it was a prototype, he HAD to go easy...

I think it was low 11's, but they EST. a 0-62mph in 2.5 sec.

meh on the guys driving skills.

And though I know it's NEEDED, I'd still take that wing off. The car would fly off the ground at 240 mph, but it wouldn't look like rice while it was doing it!

I dont know i just looked at the 0-60 numbers and estimated...but 11s is not all that for a car with 1000hp and AWD. Enzo and the others do low 11s if i remember correctly.
