Thanks for the video. When I went to get my car ceramic coated, there was a black/blue one sitting in the garage being detailed as well. What a beautiful machine.

Unbelievable how quickly it gets to 200mph, the holy grail of super cars just a few years ago.

Sounds like an airplane going by. Pretty impressive. Could have done with a few less shots of the start though...

The 0-100 seemed to be really slow, but I think the driver was just taking his time, once he hit 100 the acceleration was unreal.

I wonder what would have happened if the limiter wasn't there.

It did seem to have a bit of room left.

What an amazing vehicle!
Ten years ago (December of 2008) James May took a Veyron up to its top speed. Even though it's a decade old, Captain Slow's video of his drive is one of my all time favorites. If you've got 10 minutes, take a look.

So did Tim actually drive it?

Weren't the tires a risk (especially on that surface)?!

I doubt they took into consideration all factors needed to achieve it's maximum speed (plus limiter is on)

The most awesome thing about the Bugatti Chiron, is how that engine sounds idling or just off idle. Sounds of pure 70's muscle car to my ears. What a monster!!
