your saying VW losing on everycar because they show'd a loss for last years report. fact of the matter every large car company has been showing losses. nothing new... just business ups/downs. how do you expect to show profits when gas prices soard and car buying market went in the crapper.



btw didnt a s2ki member have pictures of that test the day they did it.. im not sure why he was there but he was taking pics of those 2 and sitting in em and etc.

Looks awesome! Best quality car in production right now


Some say each car actually costs over 4 million to make (including all the R&D)

Yup - that was me with the pictures

I was the one who made the video as well. It was quite a fun day indeed. The most startling thing about the Veyron is how quiet and composed it is. Despite its massive power and acceleration abilities, it barely chirps its tires off the line. Quite the opposite of say a Ferrari FXX:

Launch looks very tame and manageable.
