excellent!!!

as soon as the magazine appears here im going to grab my copy :o

Love you're avatar :lol:

sometimes i just can´t stop watching it :drool: :lol:

Haha, i'm getting addicted watching it too :D

In that 3D thing - how can the Mclaren have a slower time than the Enzo but beat it to the quarter mile?

Thanks mates :D

Interesting test, finally some acceleration & skidpad numbers, and they just aren't that impressive. Not after hearing for 3 years that it would do 0-186mph in 13 sec, or 15 sec, or 18 sec, whatever they finally decided...

10.4s 1/4mi is fast, but isn't that about what the S7 TT and Koenigsegg CCX do? I'm very disappointed that they didn't get some track times out of it...

Speaking of tires, I've just read that a new set for the Veyron costs £17,000 :!:

Thanks for the scans btw. :D

I wouldn't be surprised, but those baby's look damn nice! Mmmmmm 365...

You're welcome, everyone.


For the performance, yes, it does seem a 13-second 0-186 claim is tough to swallow. Compared to the S7TT, the Veyron is a little bit quicker, but the Saleen seems be catching up. The figures I've seen for the 750-hp S7TT are:
C&D
10.9 @ 140 mph

R&T
10.6 @ 139.8
10.8 @ 138.7 w/aftermarket muffler on an airstrip

Automobile Mag
10.9 @ 146

:D , one of my favourite color combos :love:
Thanks for the scans
