Uncool, impressive but not that pretty.

When you see one driving in real, you know it must be a journalist who is driving it. When the people who buy this car will ever drive this car, they only run it down the 20km straight of the VW test track. I.M.O Thats what makes it UNCOOL

uncool.

i liked the idea at first when i first read about it, but after all the production delays it just became retarded. No one is going to drive this car on the street, it's just going to sit in the garage and collect dust.

The looks are brutal but not what i would call worthy of a car with these kinds of numbers.

I voted it sub-zero because i simply think it looks fantastic. Extremely low and wide and very brutal.

Heh I think it's seriously uncool. It's not the prettiest thing ever made, it lacks passion, shoved full of worthless technology and is way too heavy. It also lacks appeal. I wouldn't mind driving this, but buying, even if I had all the money in the world, is questionable. In a sense it's sorta like the old, possible new, Viper in terms of handling and drivablity. But the Viper is at a 1/10th of the cost.

Sorry for the off topic, but with the cooling problems mentioned...

Have we heard any more news on the cooling problems this car has? It seems like up to now its all been rumors and such, but that after a few runs the car heat-sinks?

Has anyone heard if this has been resolved? I should hope so...

It´s a cool car, no more than that.
The interior is too fancy for my liking and theres something "missing" in the design.

Subzero, and nothing less. After seeing this car in person, and hearing this car drive by me a few times, I was amazed by it. Sure, the aesthetics do not scream out "sports car", but the voluptuous curves are beautiful!

passion blah, character blah, blah....those words start to mean nothing in the modern car world:roll:
it's a great engineering exercise and that's enough for me. I don't care if it's "too VW"
I'll fall in love completely when I see it.

SUBZero... and that's it

Its a love-hate affair for me with the Veyron, but i can't deny its amazing performance which makes it cool

Subzero is not an option though IMO
