Fast Beetle

[Edvard]

I'm not normally a fast car fan, but I do own a yellow VW New Beetle (I read an article when they first came out calling them "Pods from the planet Dork"...) and this looks like a sweet ride.

That's sweet, a PHD put to good use.  I want to see a demo of that baby in action.

And how about his wife's scooter? Look out pod racers! Here comes Vespa Sudacide from the star system Calla Forneya!
I also found out a few months ago that VW bought Bugatti and promply put out a screamer: the Veyron 16.4.
16 cylinders 4 turbochargers 1001 horsepower (as if 1000 wasn't quite enough) and electronically governed at 253 mph (254 was just too over the top?). Does 0-60mph in 2 seconds flat and corners like a cheetah. I would kill myself 2 blocks from home with that thing...

There's load of informationa bout that car all over the internet. For me, one of the most amazing facts about it is that WW will lose 3 million€ for each car sold, since it costs 4million€ to build and will be sold at 1€
It's the ultimate supercar, for some more interesting information, check this site:
