I think the pics are ok, gives a rough idea of what it looks like, but some better angles would be great

The Bugatti is no longer the worlds fastest car either... :)

That would be the SSC Ultimate Aero IS I believe.

true enough, but the engine in the aero is pretty amazing, they managed to get more power than the veyron on a TT V8, and run it on 91 octane


Ultimate Aero has a 6.35-litre (387.2 cu in) engine, rated at 1,183 bhp (882 kW) at 6950 rpm and 1,094 lb·ft (1,483 N·m) torque at 6150 rpm, and the supercharger is replaced by a twin turbocharger with cabin adjustable boost pressure. The car is designed to use 91-octane gasoline.[6] The 6-speed transmission is readjusted to increase the theoretical top speed to 273.75 mph (437 km/h) at 7200 rpm

Are there any modifications for the veyron...?

From whati've read it's already at max performace. What else possible could you do to the car?

You can't even compare the two cars.

The Aero is a kit car with an engine.

The Bughatti is a work of art with style, luxury, comfort and POWER!

^^^^^^^
Yup

Aero looks like a Pontiac Fiero based kit car.

That is like comparing apples to the cosby kids I just dropped at the pool.

Apples to apples comparisons? SLR......maybe the enzo (for performance) But really, the Bugatti is the total package. It stands alone.

I would like to see more of the SSC, too bad TG won't touch it with a 100 foot pole.

I'm sure the drop top is only a mere $200 000 option :bigpimp:

There's no such thing as max performance. There are always modifications that can be made.
