Would like it a hell of a lot more if they hadn't ripped the design straight from a Lotus Exige. It looks almost identical. The numbers are insane though...

The base body is an exige lol.

They started with an exige, completely redid the body in full carbon fiber ~2 feet longer, extended wheelbase 14 inches, dropped in basically a 6.2liter LS9, twin turbos, on a Ford GT transmission.

There's some other vids explaining why they did it that way, lemme see if I can find.

this one's pretty in depth on the design ideas:



Basically it comes down to 2 things:
They wanted a legitimate street car with a good AC, radio etc, but absolute maximum power to weight on pump gas.

And, they wanted repair to be reasonable and affordable. The best example is that a set of tires for a Veyron is over 100k, the tires on the venom are about 3k.

One of the better TF2 "fails" for their Saxxy Awards. Warning, loud start.

I think the Bugatti prides itself not only on the fact that it can go damn near 270mph, but it can ride like a damn Cadillac at that speed. And I don't think trying to make repairs affordable should be a priority when making a car that costs upwards and over a million dollars depending on package. If you have that kind of cash to spend, does it really matters how much the tires cost?

ht

we did dumb shit like this but a little more malicious. we always did poo-dollar, which is kinda gross now that i look back on it

Old video, but something's annoying me: the guy from Madagascar at 2:00 in the video has a voice that reminds me so much of someone else but I can't put my finger on it...halp.

Yeah, no. You can't physically make a suspension to ride anything remotely close to smooth "like a caddical" while maintaining 4200 pounds at 260 mph. There's no denying it's still a luxury car, but it's a purebred speed machine with luxury tacked inside.

It is uncommonly calm at those speeds, but that's really just a signature of craftsmanship and raw air power.

Yes? First off the Veyron is almost 2 mil... but investing 2 mil also means you need to put 5-10% or more back into it just for the tires alone. Even for rich people a couple hundred grand is a lot of money... especially in comparison to 3 grand. There's also the matter of having to ship the wheels to France in order to change said tires, lol.

Basically what they've done here is made a car that just destroys it in terms of raw performance capability, while being a car you can legitimately work on yourself if you're into cars enough to buy an absurdly expensive one like that. Further, it's a reasonable daily driver, with the classic luxury you expect from a lotus. The only thing is, they didn't set out to make it the highest top speed car in the world, because people barely ever have an opportunity to see those speeds anyway. So, why put on 100k tires to allow you to hit 258 and still be "safety certified" and all that jazz, when for 3k you can get tires that will work for 220 and almost nobody's even going to push the limits with them?

To put it in internet terms, a Veyron is an epeen car that's still amazing to drive, where the VenomGT is a driver's car that also happens to have some pretty hefty epeen factor.

holy shit the mannequin...

I need one of those to defend my living room.
