Although I absolutely cannot stand the term "gearhead," I suppose I could be accurately labeled as such.  I heart cars.  Mostly of the European sports/tuner car variety, in fact I own highly-modified VW 337, although I simply refer to it as my "ranch" because it's where all 240 of my horses live.  No. Big. Deal. 

So it is only natural that I have a major obsession with the Bugatti EB Veyron, which is manufactured by Volkswagen. The car has a 16-cylinder 1000-horsepower engine with four turbochargers.  Bugatti claims the car's top speed is 253 MPH (and it goes 0-60 in about 2.3 seconds), and these guys set out to prove it (warning: this will either bore you to tears, or be totally awesome, depending on how much you like things that go fast):

If only I had about $2 Million American dollars sitting around, I could have one of these sitting in my driveway condo parking lot.

UPDATE: The super annoying music producer Scott Storch, who doesn't know he's just a white geek from the 'burbs who should never, ever wear a pinky ring, already has one of these.  He paid $1.7 Million for his.

  No, I meant condo.  Of course, I'm renting it, but I do still live in a condo. Apartments are for, like, gross poor people. Ew.

  I think you meant to strikethrough "condo" for "apartment."
  
  Oh, and Nissan Motorsports till I die!
