Ridiculous Car of the Day!

Well at the start of today i had planned on using a picture of a car that i had taken in the past. Then today, out of nowhere, i see one of the most Ridiculous cars ever made on the street. First, i was walking down the sidewalk to go to lunch and i looked down the street and saw these cars on the street.


Now, i couldn't tell what they were from far away, so once i got up closer i saw that they were Bugatti's. Now at first i was thinking, these must be kit cars, but they looked very original. Then i looked across the street and saw this sitting behind the Hotel and realized they were definitely real.


It was one of those moments when you just think, what the heck is this doing here. There in front of me was sitting the car formerly known as the fastest car in the world. I had never seen a Veyron in person, and it was a sight to be seen. The interesting thing was, the people looking at the cars were spending more time looking at the old cars than the Veyron. The Veyron is a truly RIDICULOUS supercar. It has:

  • 10 radiators for various things
  • A 16 Cylinder Engine
  • Can go 253 MPH
  • AT 253 MPH will run out of gas in 12 minutes, before the tires explode in 15 minutes.
  • 1001 Horsepower
  • Base price of 1.6 Million Dollars
  • Only 200 were made
  • Needs tires replaced every 2500 miles at $10000
  • Averages 8 MPG city, and 13MPG highway
After seeing this car, it made my day. I mean who knows, i may never see one again. When i was walking back across campus i noticed this at the bike rack:

I guess i can see a Bugatti every day and didn't even know it.
