Veyrons selling like hotcakes in US.

Yannis · 07-14-2006, 01:50 AM

The Detroit sales total compares favorably with high-income hotbeds like California's Silicon Valley. Bugatti has taken orders for a mere 30 Veyrons in the entire United States, Bugatti Troy sales manager Matthew Vazana said. Bugatti has nine dealers in the United States.

Three of the buyers live in Michigan and one in Toronto.

Powered by a 16-cylinder turbocharged 8.0-liter engine, the Veyron reaches 60 m.p.h. in 2.5 seconds and has a top speed of 253 m.p.h.

Bugatti plans to build a mere 50 Veyrons a year and stop when the total reaches 300.

Despite the astronomical price, Bugatti, which is owned by Volkswagen AG, reportedly loses money on every Veyron it sells.

"There's never been a car like this, and there probably never will be again," Vazana said.

Bugatti Troy expects to deliver its first car in October, and the dealership is working with three more potential local Veyron buyers.

Although the car has an astronomical price tag there are thousands of people out there sitting on 50 million dollar bank accounts which means that it is very hard for car manufacturers to produce a car which is too expensive. The Veyron is really the car for the people who are really particular about their style and don't concider the CGT or even the Enzo to be exklusive enough.
The Veyron is the ultimate symbol for supreme wealth.

Don't be sad rob. Just sell 3 litres of your blod, a slice of your liver, one kidney and one of your lugns on ebay and you will have enough money to buy yourself half a Veyron.
