Hmmm, I am sure a very well build kit car with good parts could get same acceleration without spending gadzillion pounds

Its practically too fast in standard guise.
Its also just numbers! I think an old Macca or an Ultima would beat it in the real world anyway.
Plus - its just plain vulgar!
Just my opinion!

Bit of a pisser for people who bought Veyrons thinking they now had the fastest car.
Glad I didn't buy one myself

From the various youtube videos of them being crashed, it appears the present power is already more than many owners can handle. This sort of
unnecessary performance gain is just the sort of thing that might make the EU enforce by law the voluntary 155mph limit imposed by some manufacturers.

Reading the 'memo' it looks likely to be a fake to me.

If they fling enough money at it they may just about make it as fast as an Ultima!

A google search shows so many reports of the Veyron GT though, from some pretty reputable sources (Evo mag etc)
