Theres an easier and much cheaper solution, get a tesla p100 ! Quicker than the stupidly expensive Veyron anyway.

There is an easier and much cheaper solution, keep your old car, not as quick as a Tesla, except for long journeys... You wont stop to charge it up... :)

Yes but a Tesla is a Tesla and a Veyron is a Veyron

People buy what they can afford. Most people cannot afford a Tesla! Quicker does not mean better.

I believe the wheels have to be shipped to Michelin in France, for a tyre change.
Did you not buy two sets of wheels with your Veyron? I just do ‘em turn and turn about. ;)

The Veyron is a triumph of engineering the Tesla is a good washing machine with a great electric motor.

If it was just about going fast then buy an ariel atom, a motorbike or jump off a cliff with a groundsheet.

Terminal velocity limits you to 121mph sadly, if in the classic pose........

No, that’s the face first/ arms n legs out position.

Headfirst with arms tucked in, the drag reduces and the record is...373.6mph.

That 374 is the record for speed skydiving. Baumgartner made 834mph but did it from 128k’...
