Vette Owners Never Fail to Surprise Me...

It's not all vette driver, just this one guy's opinion. The power delivery is different, and the v8 is torquier in the low rev range. But who cares? Both cars

The power delivery is different, and the v8 is torquier in the low rev range.

But who cares? Both cars are fun, sleek, powerful sports cars.

That's right, son. Yeah, I forgot about my own car. I'm linin' up to take down another Bugatti this weekend.

I do this by challenging bugatti owners in very unlikely competitions, then mailing out the notification 5 minutes before I show up. When they're not there in ten minutes or less, they forfeit. I'm 9-0.

I heard you actually lost once when the owner just happened to be driving by.

Yeah I challenge them to unlikely competitions too. First one to get to 20 mpg wins; the one with the lowest maintenance cost wins; whoever can get the fastest 1/4 mile time in the other person's car wins. I am undefeated in these challenges against Bugatti owners. That's why they're not making anymore Veyrons, they couldn't handle the fact that they lost to a kid in a 370Z.
