Well, for all her annoying squeeling and such, I was at least a little happy that she seemed to appreciate the car and was generally supportive. I dunno how many wives would be happy if their husband spent that much money on a car let alone interested in checking it out and videotaping.

Bugatti Veyrons are just for straight lines. Too much weight too much overkill. REAL sportscars are about KG/HP. 1900kg(Veyron) is WAY TOOO MUCH
