    The Veyron Super Sport is the ultimate car. Period.
    It doesn't matter if it is stripped of its title of "Fastest Car"... its the quality, and the pure passion for the ultimate incarnation of a car that makes this thing so much better than any Venom and SSC. A Koenigsegg Agera comes close, but this thing has truly been engineered to the maximum in every area.
    Bugatti... I salute you!

    I am actually surprised the Veyron SS is faster on 'a track' than the cars you mentioned. If true; I admit, it is king. That said, the Zonda R is a work of engineering art and more so than the Veyron...imo.

    • @Rei89CH
      @Rei89CH 9 лет назад +8

      +Max Power Technically he's right. The SuperSport and its convertible version were the last variants of the car. Those ''30 more variations'' as you call them, were mostly special editions. The Veyron actually only comes in a few models from what I recall. The standard car with a convertible version (Grand Sport) and then the SuperSport with the convertible version called the Grand Sport Vitesse. These models are the BASE cars for the dozens of special editions they brought out.

    • @davidcargo6522

  • @ironbull2003
    @ironbull2003 12 лет назад

    You are right Bugatti is not a proper super car it is Ultimate super car!!! 860hp Ferrari? you are talking about track car that use racing fuel, most u can see on street is Ferrari enzo with 660 bhp. How you can claim its only good in straight line, are you going to push any car to the limit on a street to feel a difference? Plus this is SS in the video 1200 bhp and one of fastest cars ever tested on top gear.

  • @3XICS
    @3XICS  12 лет назад

    Well they went for a W16 to make it more compact as a V16 would be bigger, and it needs this many cylinders to make the power smoother as a V8 (like in the Venom) would be a lot less refined and would have make it feel like a heavily tuned car, but let's not forget that this car Veyron is a pretty old car by now so maybe the next car (if they ever make a new one) will probably have a smaller-ish engine like a V12.

  • @Tippotipo
    @Tippotipo 12 лет назад

    The claim was verified by Pierre-Henri Raphanel, Bugatti test drive. In his interview with 0-60 magazine, he made five runs with the same tires on Ehra Leissen above 400 km/h (confirmed by James May mentioning the 37 miles total lifespan of tires at high speed). Another test was done by Michelin with tires sustaining 440 km/h (it might be higher now around 450 km/h). Add also the tarmac into equation above 260 mph, a slight mistake at that speed means instant death.

  • @hubbalol
    @hubbalol 12 лет назад

    The numbers doesn't even tell half the story. The Bugatti is made to last 10, 20 or 30 years without having mechanical breakdowns or services every 500 miles. That is the thing that's truly remarkable about this car. It's built to withstand the years, the other two aren't. In short, numbers don't do cars well. You have to look at the whole picture. It's a shame people can't behave while trying to make a point, by the way.

  • @brudel001
    @brudel001 12 лет назад

    I absoluetly agree. People don't get it that veyron is a GT car first and theres no lightweight GT cars - Bentley GT, Aston martins, merc SL, Jaguar XK etc. they are all heavy 4000lbs cars because of luxury, high end stereo, lots of soundproofing etc. And despite being the GT car it can keep up with most performance only oriented hypercars both on straight and track. And thats what makes the veyron ultimate - no compromises.

  • @PorscheSweden
    @PorscheSweden 12 лет назад

    I still think the SSC Aero and the Venom GT are un-compareable to the Veyron, Both in quality, handling and reliability. The Veyron is the ultimate car designed in Europe which concludes top quality and a supreme engine + gearbox which took over 5 years to design. The result, a car that cannot be matched to anything. If we look at the Americans, Their thought was: Power to weight ratio so they took a Twin Turbo Viper 7,2L engine and put it in a light Lotus chassi, which do you prefear?

  • @brudel001
    @brudel001 12 лет назад

    Theres not many modern lambos, ferraris, GT-R's etc. that have that much mileage on them - its very rare occasion like one out of couple of thousand. People who own veyron didn't buy it because they had to choose between this or that - if they want they can buy also agera-r and a plane hangar full of all the other supercars. They have private jets, villas around the world etc. Its only the average youtube dumbass who would buy lambo, put turbos on it and buy the big mac for the money left over.

  • @brudel001
    @brudel001 12 лет назад

    Veyron engine is good for 3000hp. It is turned down to have bulletproof reliability. Veyron SS with biggest mileage has allmost 100k miles on it allready which is huge for a car like that. All those tuned pieces of shits may be fast when they work but everybody knows how unreliable heavily tuned cars are - not to mention that the chasssis, brakes etc. are not meant for such forces. When you tune you take all the risks yourself but factorys have responsibilty in front of every customer.

  • @randomdutch1
    @randomdutch1 12 лет назад

    if you look at dragtimes you see there ams gtr's are 2 years old and running fine
    you have a point with how long it will do it but if we look at the prices its worth more to fix a gtr over a time laps of 3 to 4 years than a bugatti for 1,8 mil
    BUT fuck it we both love the gtr and the ss so why the fuck are we doing this ;p
    you are the first one i seen who knows shit about cars i will give you that much

  • @baujahr90er
    @baujahr90er 12 лет назад

    i love the gtr more than the ss BUT a 1500hp gtr WILL NOT last for 2 years, ams could claim a lot but the fact is that the alpha omega has a 4 litre v6 and thats not enough to deliver such an monstrous amount of pover for a long period of time.
    koenigseggs and bugattis are build to deliver a lot for a very long time (i dont know if there was any engine failure on them so far) because they are build for that. they could do at leat 2000hp but for how long? ;)

  • @Dominikmj
    @Dominikmj 12 лет назад

    Chris Harris almost without words... funny.
    But you can really see the lack of occasion. When he drove the new 911 Carrera S or the 2012 Nissan GT-R he could push it.
    To push it in a Veyron is something like suicide.
    For those, who admire other supercars: yeah there are a lot of great cars - however the Veyron is in a whole new territory! It is a milestone. And it is even pretty easy and save to drive.

  • @mikhailman
    @mikhailman 12 лет назад

    well then any car with a turbocharger is the same? thats generalizing.. UGR just takes a car with the same engine, puts a turbo and thats pretty much it. This bugatti was designed from scratch with those turbochargers.. its not the same concept it any way. its like saying that man with a rifle is just the same as the boy who was just given the rifle. get what i mean?

  • @randomdutch1
    @randomdutch1 12 лет назад

    yes
    look no doubt i like the bugatti BUT with 16 cilinders and 4 turbo's you would expect more than only 1200 hp when a gtr (modded) delivers 1500 hp at the wheels and that you will be smoked for 5% of the cost by the gtr when you pay 1,8 mil for the ss, its not worth it so no my love is for ams gtr or ugr gallardo

  • @mikhailman
    @mikhailman 12 лет назад

    by "this guy" you mean Chris Harris?
    listen, dont even THINK about comparing a 2mil £ hyper car with a tuned lambo that is not even MADE to hold 1500hp...
    you have no idea of what kind of engineering genius it takes to create a car such as Veyron SS. its quite on the other level from putting a huge turbo in a lambo...

  • @crimnlbt1349
    @crimnlbt1349 11 лет назад

    well... it's said koenigsegg doesn't give many ageras for TV testing, i actually only found 3 vids with the agera being tested, one was swedish.
    the supersport has being tested way more + it has the reputation of the fastest production car ever made. the agera still has to be tested.

  • @brudel001
    @brudel001 12 лет назад

    Veyron SS is faster on track than enzo, ascari A10, gumpert apollo, noble m600, zonda f, maserati mc12, ariel atom, caterham r500. So all the talk how it is fast only on straight is BS. Zonda-R is a racecar that is not even race legal not to mention street legal so why eeven bring this thing in?

  • @mikhailman
    @mikhailman 12 лет назад

    o rly? last time i checked they've engineered a w16 engine for this car... plus the actual car is an original, with its own chassis, first ever dual clutch transmission specially designed for the veyron, and ultra sensitive back wing, unique tyres, 10 radiators etc... so its not really "same"...

  • @banddude121
    @banddude121 12 лет назад

    @ilbidone001 No its the fact that everyone loves it because of that reason only. You don't hear people discuss the faults such as the looks. The big rounded grille makes it look mentally challenged. It has a V16 with turbochargers so the speed isn't impressive at all.

  • @ironbull2003
    @ironbull2003 12 лет назад

    1st veyron was made in 2003 1st was sold in 2005 so you can kinda say that Veyron is almost ten year old car. Trust me $25K 2011 5.0 will blow you away when you get in to Veyron or Ferrari you wont see much diff until you go in a straight line ;)

  • @akburst510
    @akburst510 12 лет назад

    Making a car be agile around a track, while going ridiculously fast is more of an engineering feat than putting millions of $ into a tank for it to go fast. Zonda R is much more impressive imo...from the carbo-tanium to the unbelievable traction.

  • @SixCommunists
    @SixCommunists 11 лет назад

    The Agera's theoretical top speed is 275 and hasn't been proved. The Venom GT's top speed is supposed to be 272 but hasn't had a runway long enough, heck even the Dagger GT says it'll do 300 blah, it hasn't been proven.

  • @randomdutch1
    @randomdutch1 12 лет назад

    yea but those 3000 hp is 2/3 heat so thats fucked up and there are enough gtr's and lambo's etc. that have more miles on it and next to that if i could have spend that kind of money i would have a koenigsegg agera r

  • @lifecon1
    @lifecon1 12 лет назад

    yet they can make little 1.5L inline 4s 800hp, 2.0L inline 4s 1000hp, 3.0L well above 1100hp? I think engines stock at levels such as 600-900hp can be built to go beyond that, especially when theres a street legal 2000hp car.

  • @baujahr90er
    @baujahr90er 12 лет назад

    not even one is even near to be standard... enough said.
    shure that they all will blow the ss up BUT they are modified ;)
    the only cars comparable to the ss are the ultimate aero tt and the koenigsegg agera r

  • @uessaloniki

    It has 4 high pressure turbos man...Noone can get rid of that kind of turbo lag even if they had a 40 billion budget...And believe me if they could they would have done it and charge an extra 100k a piece

  • @njdrives
    @njdrives 12 лет назад

    im not disagreeing with anything you said, but perhaps the veyron is so stable because it is all wheel drive. on the other hand, as far as i know, venom gt is a rear wheel drive drivers car.

  • @C6SuperchargedZR1
    @C6SuperchargedZR1 12 лет назад

  • @BRMLs9

  • @crimnlbt1349
    @crimnlbt1349 11 лет назад

    You are right, for instance in a TG review of the Venom GT (which has the potential to beat the SS's top speed) the reviewer said that the car broke traction and went into a tank slapper at 200mph which is something the Veyron would never do, not to mention that nobody ever said anything about the handling of these cars like the SSC Aero or Venom GT, which is also an important factor of how well the chassis can cope with all that power, even if the SS's record is beaten it still remains the best
