That's amazing - awesome numbers. That said, there's always been a suggestion that Bugatti left a lot of headroom with the W16 - if this SSC is currently a little quicker, I wonder whether the Bugatti may be able to go quicker stilll.

Relative bargain compared to the Lambo Reventon.
But the Reventon looks soooooooo much hotter
but I do admit its a huge ripoff (The Reventon)
