Built for those who never soil their hands...i'm definately not interested, even with "ludicrous " money.

The Veyron, I like it.

My comment about This centodieci having dated styling, well, I guess we'll see.

My mind is still reeling from seeing someone parking their lambo in... Delhi. Such a terrible car for that place and who would be impressed? Maybe the owner has a small cohort of similarly delusional friends?

So thats my guess... Some hyper rich clique thats run off into the fashion weeds. Clearly happens a bunch.

I sorta feel bad for the designers if this is the best they could do.

Wow what a car!

We all have one life to live. If you've got the money then why not?

Is he still alive? Impressive considering his life style.

• They made ten.

• All of them are sold.

• Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

• It doesn't matter what we think of it, or how many widgets can be bought instead of it, it has been a marketing success, written up in all of the major business outlets.

• "Lets take the Bugatti to the Duluth Trading Company for some firehose jean shorts" said no one ever.

Read an article pointing out you can buy a (used) F-16 for same price. I expect the running costs would be a leetle bit different.

Depending on who the "you" is even if it is listed for sale you might not be allowed to buy it.
The U.S. government has limits on who can buy its operational military aircraft used.
The list is pretty small and doesn't include private individuals.

If a non military connected private individual wants a fighter jet, they are pretty much stuck with something non U.S..
