Numerology? Palindromic number? Definitive @ a thousand and one, more than a thousand? Cultural or mystical significance, 1001 Arabian Nights? Superstition? Magic? Some palindromes that lead to success in the auto industry: CIVIC, read the same forward or backwards. Also, 'A TOYOTA' reads 'ATOYOT A'. Toyota was originally Toyopet, not very palindrome friendly. Good question!Originally Posted by r1ckst4
why 1001 BHP?
Mystery and mystique? It's already started with the release. When, why, how, where, etc?

NAAHHH i don't think so...Nope, it will join the Mclaren F1 and Koenigsegg CCR
Man this car weights almost 2 tons and got a W16!
How can this car join the CCR with 1180kg and a V8?

Top speed-wise it will join those, but with accelaration it'll outdo the McLaren F1, putting it on par with the CCR I believe. It carries less pounds per horse than the F1 too. Now we could have a tried if only Chyrsler....I mean...Nope, it will join the Mclaren F1 and Koenigsegg CCR
I can't wait for some reviews to pop up...It'll be quite a comparison for both the CCR and 16.4 Veyron to be in an article...[/badgrammar]

Coz it has a W16 engine with quad (4) superchargers.....cool....
Enthusiast
i mean what's with the 1 extra horse power? can't they make it even? like 1000, or 1010 or 1100?

"Without any interruption in the power flow, the sequential seven-speed gearbox transmits the engine’s power to the wheels via permanent four-wheel drive. Put simply, this means uninterrupted acceleration from a standing start to maximum speed: a feeling previously known only to jet pilots."
