If you are looking for one of the fastest cars in the world, then you should consider the Bugatti Veyron. This vehicle was regarded as the fastest car in the world at the time of its first release. It is one of the very few cars that need an airport runway to attain maximum speed. Try to achieve this on a regular road and you’d soon run out of tar.
Asides from the speed, it comes with so many features that place it among the costliest cars in the world. In this post, we will look at the cost of the Bugatti Veyron in South Africa as well as the specs of some of the models of this car.
