Why? No car shy of the Veyron (numbers are still independently unconfirmed) can touch it for either acceleration, top speed, practicality, exclusivity or technological marvels.

I don't care how fast a car is. I wouldn't kiss a million bucks goodbye for aluminum, carbon fiber, rubber and glass

Where have you heard this? :roll: Why and how would they do that? How is a company in England going to control how much millionaire & billionaire owners who live all over the world drive their own car?
If that was true how would there be an F1 in the USA that has over 40,000 miles?
