Veyrons have AWD. That's pretty practical. And iirc they only come in automagic transmissions.

who needs practicality at your age? thats what friends are for. need to haul something? call your buddy with the truck. need to go somewhere with more than 1 person? tell him/her to drive, save the miles!

...at least this is what i do, and im around your age as well

Not true -- my Dad drives an automatic (but he is 80). My Brother in Law drives one as well (but he is 340 pounds and cannot manipulate a stick due to his girth).
