Pictures really don't do the c7 any justice, nor video. The car, I thought, was absolutely stunning in person and looks very exotic. I loved everything about it. While I couldn't feel the interior, it looks vastly improved. Steering wheel is also a nice size, though I think it looks big in pictures, it really isn't.
Great job by the design team. Based on the reactions of the people around it, most people seemed to love it, I heard one or two moans about the rear. Even the old fogies seemed to like it!

The Veyron sucks, and is ugly...for that money I could buy an airplane that will out run it, and carry 4 people to another city on one tank of gas. That C7 makes it look stupid. 1.2M for junk.

That's the Vitesse press car. It looks outstanding. I'd take it.

There is a little car company in Sweden called Koenigsegg. They make a car called the Agera R. This company has had the fastest production car title a couple times. Their car shoots for 270+mph. Oh, and about this thread. Great pictures of the C7. It looks very exotic indeed even next to a hyper car.

Hasn't done it, yet. Unless I've missed recent news. A dozen cars have laid claim to theoretical speeds surpassing the Veyron's that are somehow mathematically proven, yet fail to materialize in practice.

No doubt is one impressive, audacious machine. I'm just not fond of it's styling. If I want a hyper car, there are several others I would get before getting a Veyron. They all perform incredibly well, even if the Veyron remains outright speed champ.
