    In a veyron probably. Those things are so amazing not only because they can do 265+mph but because it is a 4200lbs AWD car with a few luxury options doing it.

    I wasnt all that crazy about the interior of the one I saw...it did have some crazy accents and suede work, but it wasnt what I expected. The car itself is unreal tho..what really surprised me is that he top of the engine is exposed "Im guessing it was the intake?" but its not covered...the body is molded around it.

    I'll take it dressed as a wet paper sack as long as it could hold up to any accidents at that speed.

    Personally the car isn't good looking from most angles. Inside or out. But it is well engineered. Much more so than the Venom or SSC Ultimate Aero. Have you seen those interiors? This is a car that your average person could reach speeds of 200+ without even realizing it. The venom and SSC take someone who knows what there doing to drive them full out.

    Yeah, that's the main reason I decided to pass on the Veyron SS myself. The interior just didn't resonate with me. The lack of cup holders is an unpardonable sin.

    Drinking premium fuel at 2 gallons per minute at full throttle was a bit of a concern too.

    I finally found my automotive soul mate in a Subaru that I've convinced myself is exactly the same but with cup holders.

    AWD = Check

    Turbocharged = Check

    Sounds like an airplane going by = depends on how loud the stereo is and what's playing on the ipod

    Generates looks of awe when passing by = I keep telling myself it does anyway...

    Awww, I have to be honest. If prodded I'd probably trade my Subaru for a Veyron.

    But where would I put my 32oz gut buster?

    Kidding aside, watch the following National Geographic special on the Making of the Veyron.

    Amazing piece of automotive engineering

    It doesn't have them.

    Stunning oversight by the engineering team.

    How marketing could let it into the marketplace is beyond comprehension.
