It really didnt look like the Stig was pushing it very hard. I hink it could have gone faster. And it sounded like the US spec car concidering the HP #'s he gave. The US spec car is 987 the Euro spec car is 1001. But regardless that car is SICK!!!
ya, they raced the bugatti against the new Zonda R or something like that in the 1/4 mile. The bugatti beat it by atleast 10 car lengths...in the 1/4 mile!!!
Both the same power figures, 987bhp = 1001PS, they generally have 50 - 100hp more than that according to engineers, the power figures are under horrible conditions so that when tested its always more.
Re: In a race between Bugatti Veyron versus Nissan GTR, who would win? (phatso786)
You guys put too much faith in Top Gears antics.
They are equalizing 'fast' cars for television.
A Veyron accelerates and brakes faster than any other production car.
Yet, it still pulls 1+g of lateral grip.
You better believe it is faster (around a track) than a GTR.

If give them both enought to buy the veyron. the person with gtr would win he has $1,000,000 to put into the car
negative. you cant touch the GTR without breaking it.
cmon, im not one to normally compare horsepower #'s because i know theres more contributing to a cars performance, but jesus, 500hp compared to 1000? ITS GOT TWICE AS MANY TURBOS AND MORE THAN TWICE AS MANY CYLINDERS.
not even a ? as to which would win

okay well first off i love how the veyron has anywhere from 900 to 1500hp depending on who is asked...the "brochure" says 1001. (had to have the extra 1?? good job bugatti. wouldn't have been near as epic without the extra one in there). and for everything else, i'm a mk1 guy so idk why i care, but EVERYONE has to give the GT-R props for keeping up with the f***ing thing considiering its short, idk, like TEN CYLINDERS!! bet nobody's pathfinder in their garage will do that!!
cylinders dont matter one bit... power is power whether its from a modified 4 cylinder or the veyrons 16 cylinders. im not a gtr person at all but i give nissan props for building a great platform, other than the xmission problems.
The gtr might win a short race, but the Bugatti will keep running for hours after the gtr blows up.
