I'm surprised by how many of you seem unimpressed with the Veyron - I think its utterly amazing, and is the only (yes, only) supercar I covet.
I'm unmoved by Lambo's, indifferent to Ferrari's (tho I do like the 458, and the older 456), think the Koenigsegg and the Zonda are both risible, and what links all of those is their showiness, their shouty-ness - "Hey look at me!", something that only a certain type of driver would find agreeable. I'm not one of them.
I Have a lot of respect for the Porsche marque, and most Astons are just lovely, but not sure they should be considered as supercars.
The Veyron is a an epic road-burner of genuine engineering innovation and brilliance, it's small enough and well-designed enough to have some real-world practicality, it sounds AMAZING, and, personally, I LOVE the look of the thing.
So, yes, if I had mega-money, I'd buy two of them..... :)

Nope, Ascari A10 for me.

With that sort of income/cash available though, maybe both at some point... Maybe, perhaps a bit of a brouse, bit of mans shopping, build a garage the size of a football pitch, some 2post lifts built into the floor, snap on tool chests, bikes on one side couple of motocrossers, zx12,new blade,desmosedichi,ktm duke,gold wing,cars the other,vxr8, a10, then and only then possibly a Gayron, maybe a boat house at the back backed on to the river later. Then sell the house and move in to the "garage".... 8-)

Note to self.
(Yeah right. Dream on fat boy)

No, sorry but not impressed with supercars. I get frowned on by some for driving the MV6 like a t**t so what use is this to me? As someone said £695,000 for a car? As an investment maybe but if i had the money for a screamer i'd save a fortune & go for this.

Not in a million years.
Why?
Because it really is a waste to spend of this amount of money on ANY car. :o
And thats even if you could afford it.
