Default A car I would DEFINITELY trade the S for

I've read about this car before, but this is the first article I've read by someone who's actually driven the car.

Must be nice to be able to trade from a $30K car to a $1.2 MILLION car. Yup, if I had 1.2 mill in loose change, I'd be driving an S2000.

OK. Not saying I could afford it just that it's a hot car. Geez you leave the door open a little on this website and everyone likes to jump all over you.

How soon till some company makes a 1200hp "street" car with 270mph top speed and wings that pop out the side, you just have to make sure your in class G airspace! hahaha

its just rediculously fast, I don't understand why, its not like you could track the thing. But then, I'm sure somebody with 1.2mil to buy the car is just doing it to look cool.

I would like to try the 186mph in 16.8sec though...sounds incredible

CAR also mentioned that Bugatti were thinking about a "cheap" convertible based on the mid-engined V6 VW roadster body fitted with a V8 engine.

There have been Audi and VW banterings about a W12 or a W8 based sports car for quite some time.

It'd be nice to have the car deliver the goods in light of all the bashing it's been getting here on the boards.
