Every once in a while, when i am sitting in my room all alone with my computer on infront of me at night and the the stereo pumping out the beats while listening to The Edge, i am sitting there wondering, what is my dream car?? what car would i buy if i woke up 2moro with a billlion gazillion dollars?? so i decided to ask people what their favorite car was..... the two that stood out were the Ferrari Enzo by the hard out sports car enthusists and Nissan Skyline GTR R-32. so i decided to investigate further into this matter to see what is the greatest car that i can find. i started by looking up the vehicle statistics for the R-32. the nissan has a 2.6 litre straight six with twin intercooled turbo engine. this gives you a max output of 280 horsepower at 6800 RPM. thats a lot of horses from a road narmal street car. i next looked up the stats for the Enzo. the italian warhorse which is supposed to be the best car ever produced by ferrari has a heart of a 6 litre V-12 giving an output of about 660 Horsepower at 7800 RPM. this really is a million dollar car. with an apporximate cost of 1 million dollars for the base model. then i stumbled onto something even greater. a car so monumental that its in a league of its own. i came across this car out of sheer coincidence. i was watching top gear (my favorite TV show) when they did 3/4 of an episode on this car. Jeremy Clarkson, who car demolish a car's reputation in a matter of a couple of words called this one "Utterly, stunningly, jaw droppingly brilliant" (link to that article: http://driving.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,12529-1890873,00.html)
So i had to see for myself what is it about this car that makes it so great to deserve such praises from Clarkson himself. what i found was quite surprising. Firstly the car has a 16.4 litre engine in a W format.... that two V8s that are joined together!!!!! next they added 4 TURBOCHARGERS!!!! 4!!! this gives an output of 1001 horsepower at 6000 RPM. to keep this kind on power onto the ground, the Bugatti has a permenant all wheel drive. this car tons of accelaration. it goes from 0 to 100 Km/h in about 3 seconds and reaching a top speed of 406 Km/h. costing about 1.7 million dollars, this is not just any other car. this is THE CAR!!!! this is the concord among cars. this is what I WOULD BUY IF I HAD A BILLION GAZILLION DOLLARS.
