I'd love to see them fit the Bugatti SS Engine into a 3500lb car :)

Why when you can build an LS with twin turbos and make just as much power. However, you won't have the aero, brakes, AWD, etc. that the Veyron has.

That's called an SSC Ultimate Aero. (Actually I think they weigh somewhat less, but I'm not sure.)

It just doesn't have the AWD.

I can't get into the Ultimate Aero. I've seen it in person and it just isn't that impressive.

It gets a "meh" from me too, somehow just a generic supercar. I only meant technically speaking. Probably a hoot to drive though!

Ferrari recalls latest supercar amid fire threat
 
Quote:

Ferrari has been forced to recall its latest supercar after reports that several had burst into flames.
The Italian carmaker revealed it had investigated five "thermal incidents" across the world involving its 458 Italia model, which was unveiled last year at the Frankfurt motor-show. No fatalities were reported.
