Over the weekend Bugatti once again proved it’s superior performance to other sports cars. The new Bugatti Veyron SuperSports claimed back it’s trophy as the worlds fastest production car… in the world 🙂 The car clocked an average of 431.07 km/h on it’s two way record setting run, to the engineers amazement, who were hoping a speed of 425 km/h.
What I like about this car, is that not only it managed to break the record (again), but (as always), the Veyron has always done it with style. I mean yes, the SSC Ultimate Aero was the previous record holder, barely beating the Veyron’s short lived record, but just look at it… it’s… well… it lacks the glamor… And now, the new Bugatti kept it’s style (although not as fancy as the original) and has jumped ahead with 20 km/h more than the SSC. Now that’s something.
