If you are going to spend $750,000 dollars on a car, you might also be able to afford a souped-up Lingenfelter Corvette also for performance. Super cars are so expensive because they combine ultra-luxury, super-style, exotic-ness (average person miht ever see on in person, let alone once), and performance.
Sure you can spend $120,000 dollars on a LingenfelterCorvette and get a 0-60 time if 1.97 seconds, but you are still driving a car that most people see every day, or every other day.
When you see this car, you go for a second look.
Yes, the Bugatti can beat the SLR in performance, hell it has 2 more turbos and 8 more cylinders, doesn't take a genious to figure that one out. But the Mercedes has a lot more style, while the Bugatti is an ugly-ass car, albeit one of the, if not the, fastest cars in the world.
In other words, I would take the Mercesdes SLR McLaren instead of a Bugatti. Owning the fastest car in the world would be nice, but this car can beat out 99.99% of the cars made, enough for me.
