WORLD'S COSTLIERST CAR





The Bugatti Veyron 16.4 is currently the fastest, most powerful, and most expensive street-legal full production car in the world, with 1001 horsepower, though several faster or more expensive vehicles have been produced on a limited basis. It reached full production in September 2005. The car is built by Volkswagen AG subsidiary Bugatti Automobiles SAS in its Molsheim (Alsace, France) factory and is sold under the Italian/French Bugatti marque. It is named after French racing driver Pierre Veyron, who won the 24 hours of Le Mans in 1939 while racing for the original Bugatti firm.

This supercar which equivalent in power to F1 sports car costs at least $1.5 million. As the quickest production car to reach 100 km/h (62 mph) with an estimated time of 2.5 seconds and with top speed of over 400 km/h and W16 engine that has 16 cylinders in 4 banks of 4 cylinders, Bugatti Veyron has always been a WOW, especially when you manage to turn one of the only 300 available worldwide into a scrap, with the car lost control and spun 3 times due to patch of water on rainy condition, and then hit the into another vehicle before colliding and wrecking into a tree.
