    The car looks really nice like this. Wow and it is a GT3 too? The vent in hood makes me think this is. This is a REAL race car !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The air probably goes in through the front grill and hits a hidden wing inside front trunk , before exiting out bonnet, requiring alot more downforce in rear...thus the BIG wing. I'll bet this thing sticks like glue. Could it give a Veyron a run for the money on a tight track ? Probably , but the Veyron would out accelerate in a straight quite easily.

    A little tweaking to the Veyron would make it dominate everywhere.

    Might be right, but how much tweaking could be done, it already has 4 turbochargers!

    You already have MORE than enough power!! Maybe WIDER tires and suspension mods which would make the cars' top speed a little less(still VERY fast).Just thinking of modifying a Veyron is pretty rediculous. Use your Veyron for what it was intended and another RIDE for different intentions. From what I hear the Veyron dominates untill you do anything sudden at high speeds...Then look-out!! This is why n-ne is ragging on you for getting an R8 as a first car...It is just too safe, Except for the Abu Dabi dude whos' brother sliced his R8 in half a couple of years ago. He survived but he is messed up. See repost of pic at wrecked exotics. Too sad to post up at this forum AGAIN.

    I wouldn't do any mods to my cars, except maybe a few C.F parts on my R8 Oh and a Gallardo TT looks good

    All I know is that I want to come see that Veyron when you get it to the states.

    I'll be happy to drive where ever it is that you end up.

    Will be atleast 6 weeks before my gf is allowed to fly (she's just had a head op) so will be after that when we're in the US. Hopefully will all be sorted out before the car show in January, if it is I'll be taking R8 she'll be taking the Veyron
