Freakin' SWEEEET!!! That's an awesome car. I saw the Top Gear episode featuring it and it is an incredible piece of machinery.

Some stats they threw out - (I might be a tad off on the numbers, but close enough)

- You can line up a Veyron and a Maclaren F1, let the Maclaren get a headstart to 120 mph and the Veyron will beat it to 200 mph.

- The Veyron will empty its entire fuel tank at top speed in 12 minutes.

With all the talk of high-end cars around here, and with this bunch, you will not only require direct video evidence, time-stamped, you will also require DNA certification. A sample of the Veyron paint with your DNA on it, confirmed by a Mercedesshop-approved third party lab will suffice.
