They Veyron and the Venom. The top-speed peeing match is pretty silly to me.
I understand pushing the envelope, and it's benefit on overall technology.
At 267+mph, it just all seems to be about who's johnson is bigger.
Enlighten me on why I should care.
I think they do it so that guys who aren't car enthusiasts can pretend they like cars by throwing out stats like 267mph top speed.
I dunno... It doesn't mean much to me, but if you're the sort of person who has that kind of cash kicking around and actually wants that sort of toy, having "the fastest production car in the world" might play into that decision.
OTOH, since they keep trading it, whichever one you buy won't be the fastest for long...
I find it entertaining.
Its for a spot in the record books. That is all.
However, being able to say that your stretched elise is faster than a veyron is amusing.
Turns out Steven Tyler has a Venom!
And the bad rollcage placement award goes to....
The sad thing is, the stuff they have to do to make the cars that fast does little but add a lot of complexity, price and a tick in the record books.
Just don't try peeing at top speed, it will all blow back into your face!
