F1 lm no doubt
the veyron has no soul
it's made for top speed but that's it, it can't do anything else
I think the veyron was a waste of time and money
it looks like an over bloated beetle with a mid engined 1001hp rear end that's finished in another colour bolted on
the F1 is more complete designed as the ultimate driving exprience for true car lovers who are actually willing to drive there cars instead of putting it into storage for who knows how long

Evo - Veryron vs Carrera GT, Enzo & Zonda S & Veryon vs McLaren F1

Rnd 1 went to the Zonda and Carrera GT on the basis that they are more involving to drive (not that they weren't very impressed by the Veryon, its just a bit too aloof).

Rnd 2 went to the McLaren, obviously.

Except corner as well as any other supercar, and be as luxurious and easy to drive long distances as any GT

The Bugatti sure is a more performer and racked with modern tech's , and huge aerodynamic improvements .

The Maclaren ... is a true driving machine that has a soul .
I'd go for the Mac. anytime

I'll agree with everything but more of a performer. The F1 LM's GTR engine is designed for racing unlike the Veyron, thus it's pretty much fact, the F1 LM is more of a performer.

In terms of better performance, I'd give them the F1 LM to an equalness.

And it's McLaren.

sorry to pick up an old thread, but my weekly newspaper 'The Times' has uploaded an exclusive video where the Bugatti Veyron takes on the Mclaren F1 LM head-to-head

Watch the Video here. As well as a bunch of other good ones

it has to be the mclaren. it much more of a pure sports car. the central driving position ought to be worth it. plus the bugatti looks really ugly and it weighs 2 tonnes.

I've read a UK mag and in the group test, Veyron corners faster than Enzo. How's that?

I seriously doubt it, but it may just be down to a balance between power and grip.

McLaren FTW...only because it seems a lot more pure track ready and it is an f1 car no? the veyron on the other hand is a good car but way too hyped only cuz its got the highest advertised top speed. the veyron is a luxury car not really designed as a racing f1 car. it should be mclaren f1 versus koenisegg ccr, then it would b more reasonable

Uh.... you do know what a McLaren F1 looks like, right? It's not really a F1 car nor can you race it straight out of the factory.

But I'd rather take the McLaren F1 since it can still hit 231 even with the fitted luggage in it, which is something the Bug doesn't have.
