Not quite sure where to post this, but I think you will all enjoy this video as much as I did:

Great sounds all around! I love the Bugatti as well, but why do I want Porsche to come out with a "Veyron Killer" so much?

like the 997tt, and the 996tt, the published HP #'s are extremely conservative

with the type of air induction system on the R8, its more like 450-460hp

Nice find. I do think the Veyron was a bit out of its element however. At over $1 Million, you could purchase all four other cars and have some money left over for the price as the Veyron.

The RS seemed like the most fun to drive but with my money I would buy the R8.

Found this today: http://www.pistonheads.com/roadtests...p?c=47&i=16280

It's almost incomprehensible that the Veyron can be compared to the GT3RS in the twisties, but wow.

Watching the Veyron roll on the R8 like that really puts into perspective how crazy fast they are.
