Spent an hour driving one Friday

My friend owns the Beverly Hills dealership, he took me for a drive over to the valley (twisties). Then asked if I wanted to drive. All I can say is Holysh*t. I mean really....the car doesn't go faster, the scenery just goes by quicker. Absolutely insane. practically bruised my skull against the headrest. It's so solid, holds the road....words don't do it justice. It took a couple hours for my adrenaline to get back to normal.

LOL sorry thought everyone would know. Yep the Veyron. Given a choice between an hour with the playmate of the year and this *****, Car wins hands down. The only problem was on the 405 everyone and their mother was in my blind spot taking pictures, but it was easy to lose them . It was the factory car, blue and white. Sorry no pics, but they have the biggest dealership in the US so when the Sang and drop-top show up I'll post pics of those to make it up to you.

I would never pass a drive either. I am new to the supercar world and would drive any of them for the experience. I would be pretty darn nervous to drive that car. You'd never forgive yourself for a scratch or dent and the dealer might not either.
