I just find it wrong for some people to talk sh1t about a car if they haven't actually driven it... kind of wrong IMO, but opinions are like a$$holes, we all have 'em

Anyway, on my business trip to Japan, I bought the latest Top Gear and Evo, which both had articles about the Veyron. Both praised the car, and Top Gear even had Gordon Murray talk about how well the car handled.

Yes, 2 tons is quite a lot of car (actually, I think it's said to be 2.1 tons without driver), yet the car is able to keep down in corners surprisingly well! Weight can be a disadvantage WHEN you cannot harness it. Maybe Bugatti discovered a way to keep the car under control even though it weighs so much.

I hope I get a chance to drive it one day... so many cars, so little time
