    I'm hearing that the New Veyron Mega is not vaporware and will be faster than any of these including on the Ring.

    Interesting times. Mules are running around disguised as Adventadors and will soon be running the Ring.

    I agree.

    It's real. They made and sold 3 for 4.5mm USD and will display the car in Tomorrow in Geneva.

    Cheers

    I actually like the Veneno, for the same reason I like the Aventador. Lamborghini is great at making over-the-top, look-at-me, hyperactive car designs. I wouldn't buy one, but I love the fact that they're doing it and the people I know who own one love that about them.

    I also really like the Agera R and the Hundra. I'm looking forward to seeing their pneumatic valve system in action.

    According to a user on Lambo Power who claims to have purchased one of the Veneno's, two of the three are destined for the USA. Was quite surprised to hear that, really.

    No word yet on where the third one is off to.

    From another forum I've heard that one of them is indeed headed to the U.S. to rapper 'Birdman'. He's got quite the collection.

    You've got to love Ferdinand Piech! I am sure he decided that he was not going to be one-upped in anyway by Luca, Ferrari or McLaren!

    my final ranking -

    ferrari 1st. its gorgeous, like 458 on steroids. big plus for n/a v12.

    mcca 2nd. outrageous looks. turbo engine demerit. needed the central seating

    porsche 3rd. best engineering which is important with new hybrid tech. boring looks (in this class anyway)

    lambo last. shouldnt even be in competition. a run of 3 rebodied aventadores? no

    btw, i love how each hypercar is obviously made by its company. ie. can take off all badges, paint them same color and anyone could tell which company made which one

    Interestingly enough, I think that the new ferrari (can't even call it by its proper name) is much more similar to a 458 than the p1 is with a MP4. Of course I'm just talking about the looks department.

    -I think the porsche is the most beautiful.
    -The Ferrari the more exotic looking.
    -The beauty of the p1 is different, it's more of a technical beauty, you appreciate its design because you know that it was engineered first and designed second.

    For the lucky few that are potential buyers, looks (or loyalty to a brand) may determine their purchase, but if i had the opportunity to make that choice, i'd definitely have a VERY hard time choosing.

    Chances McLaren introduces new ecu, software for P1 to up Laferrari hp.

    They did the same with MP4-12C, shouldn't be problem for McLaren with TT system.

    laferrari actually looks more purposefully designed than the p1, despite all of mcca's claims.

    p1 looks like it was influenced by tvr design, esp in the back

    Can't believe I'm saying this but I think I prefer the porsche of the 3, hopefully will change my mind but don't see it as another F40.

    The 3.8 is already strained enough as it is. Also the specs announced were final.

    Ron drove a P1 to a record on TG track. 10s under the last one.
