When they were making the Bugatti Veyron, the world was a bit skeptical whether 1000 bhp power can really be crammed into a road car.
It took VW engineers about 4-5 years to actually settle all the concerns. Since then a lot of cars have cracked the 1000 bhp mark like the SSC Ultimate Aero, Bristol T fighter, Koenigsegg CCXR and the list just keeps getting bigger.

A lot of us want something that is truly ours. Something that is custom made only for you. Something that no Tom, Dick and Harry can buy from the market.
