      I'd take an F40 over the F1.

      At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

          Koenigsegg CCX plz.

          The two-tone Veyron is hawt sex on wheels. Even the super-retro looking interior is cool.

          C'mon. You can't tell me you don't like the big-nosed grin.

            The F1. BMW built the engine, and it is all-motor. The guy behind the car designed F1 cars for a living.

            The Veryon is a bit.. in elegant. The design process was "make it 1000hp", followed by lots and lots of "make it not blow up".

            Comparatively, Murray [the F1 designer, iirc] tells BMW "i need an engine that makes this much power and is below this weight". What he got was 50 more hp than he needed and slightly more weight. What BMW did was take two of the euro-spec E36 M3 engines and make them into a V12

                Unless I can turn the three seats in the F1 into a single seat, Veyron albeit one without any paint at all. I think that's when the Bugatti looks its best.

                Oh and btw these threads aren't a waste of space it gets us interacting with each other. These are the exact kind of questions you ask your friends when you are sitting around BS'n.

                          In a 1 mile drag: Veyron

                          Around the track @ Top Gear the Veyron is #6 overall fastest time whereas the F1 hasn't been tested (to my knowledge)

                          I'd personally rather own a Veyron but drive a McLaren F1

                                i don't think the F1 exhaust was gold. It's engine bay was lined with gold for heat reflective properties [i.e. gold heat shields], but i don't think the exhaust itself was gold. do you have a reference?

                                      "The carbon fibre body panels and monocoque required significant heat insulation in the engine compartment, so Murray's solution was to line the engine bay with a highly efficient heat-reflector: gold foil. Approximately 25 g (0.8 ounce) of gold was used in each car"

                                      fail.
