I disagree tremendously.
I don't think the Veyron is the best exotic of the modern era.... that is reserved to the Enzo... wretched styling (in a fantastic rock and roll type means) ... vicsious V12 that will kill you (yes, there are several dead owners), and world topping performance when it came out.... with the greatest race tech for the road available at that time.
the Veyron simply can't be compared against supercars that are pure supercars like the Enzo, and even the CGT... against the SLR, perhaps... the SLR is a civic by comparison.

^Are you kidding? The Enzo for me, epitomises the modern day supercar. It was designed to be the best supercar and it probably is in terms of performance.
As ugly as the Veyron is, it has a cool vibe.

Yes, that's one place where it's the best. Except there are only two or three places in the world where it can do that, of course, and 99% of its buyers will never take it there.
The car is simply massively overengineered.
Well, that would make it uncomfortable, and so cooler.
But it still lacks character. Too technical.
Both factor. A Porsche might not be a pure performance vehicle, but it still is the kind of car people take out on the track, actually using its performance. Will any Veyron be used there? Very unlikely.
That is the same factor as with Chelsea cruisers and Hummers - they are poser, their owners never intend to use their key feature, in that case, offroading.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
they have been on track, it's nothing like a chelsea cruiser, it's a totally exclusive, very fast, and a brilliant bit of engineering. Not every car that is cool has to be a trackday weapon.

^I think it is difficult to be impartial when your forum name is essentially the name of the car you're talking about.

Bugatti is faster, more powerful, is a Bugatti, and it comes with my three favorite words, Engineered by Germans!!!

jajaja lets take them to a track and we'll see ,also the Enzo dont need 30 turbos and 75 radietors but still very very fast,besides is kind of old now and still one of the coolest cars in the world. u like the Bugatti I like the Enzo.
