On the shore lay Montezuma

kinetic customization is definitely the best way to improve the Veyron.
If the owner offered me the car, I just might hold it against him that his carfax report didnt come in clean. I guess we could settle at a reasonable $400,000

300 units, is the number VW had to make to break even. Last i heard, they haven't reach that sort of number.

I'm happy the owner was not seriously injured.
Has a Bugatti Veyron ever been driven at over 400km/ph (or approxinmately 260 miles per hour)? I would assume the answer to that question is yes.

To move forwards, a car needs to overcome the forces of friction between the road surface and the tyres, and drag induced by the air the car is moving through.
If the combined sum of those forces is greater than the force the engine is capable of imparting, (power = force x speed) then the car will be unable to accelerate further.
In the case of a vehicle's top speed being limited by aerodynamic forces (at 400km/h the friction is small by comparison) then the top speed is obviously achieved at the peak power output of the engine, wherever that point may lie in the rev range.
