Whats this have to do with tech, you ask? Not much of anything, but that sure doesn’t take away from it’s “cool” factor. Autoblog links to a video of a few lucky people who had the opportunity to drag race both the W16 1,001HP Bugatti Veyron and my brand new dream car, the BMW M3 V8, which pushes out a “modest” 414HP. It’s not much of a surprise which car wins, considering the Veyron can go 0-60 in 2.5s, but I’d still be willing to save the $1,420,000 and stick with the Bimmer.
The Veyron is a true supercar that costs a cool $1.4 million, hits 60 mph in less than three seconds, and has a limited production run of a few hundred copies. Regardless of the obvious disparity between the two cars, someone just had to pit the two against one another in a race and put the video on YouTube.
