Bugatti Veyron 16.4
The Veyron has a circular dial on the extreme left of the instrument binnacle with an odd calibration. Starting at zero, the needle moves around to 1,001. The number 001 refers to horsepower in German, or PS. Simply put, the Veyron represented the pinnacle of the 2000s.
 The Veyron was fine-tuned by Team Bugatti for the best balance of speed, thermodynamics, and stability over the course of many days in the wind tunnel. All the engines that have been constructed thus far have produced 1,035 horsepower, despite the stated power output being 987 hp. In other words, this car had more horsepower than it appeared to have.
Driving a Bugatti Veyron is similar to lugging around a 14.6- foot-long pocketbook that is bursting with 500 rupee notes. In either of the Veyron's rear three-quarter blind spots, drivers speed up from behind, tailgating before hanging ape-like out of windows to take pictures with their smartphones and that should let you know of the charm of this car.
 Predictably, the performance claims made for this 4,300-pound two-seater are just incredible: 2.5 seconds to 100 kph, 7.3 seconds to 200 kph, and 16.7 seconds to 300 kph. The powerful seven-speed DSG manual transmission was provided by Ricardo. With your thumbs or the joystick in the central console, you can shift gears and choose the preferred drive mode.
