Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Fastest Car in the World

The Bugatti Veyron 16.4 is currently the fastest street-legal car in the world. With 1,001 horsepower of pure awesomeness and the equivalent of two V8 engines, the car requires a total of 10 radiators to keep it cool ... and cool it is; with a top speed of 251.2 miles per hour, the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 can go from zero to 60 in 2.5 seconds. Unfortunately, you'll only be getting 2.1 miles per gallon at full throttle, so after about twelve minutes, you'll find yourself on the side of the road with the needle on empty and old ladies flipping you the bird as they pass by.

Although its price tag of $1.2 million might scare off a few people, it's potential as a conversation piece is worth it if you have a few bucks to spare. Check out these pics.

Oh crap-I just purchased the Bugatti for those quick trips to Wal-Mart.
Now I will have to get the Hennessey Venom.
