Default 1 of 5 Veyron SuperSport World Record Edition spotted in San Diego.

I went to a car show in La Jolla, San Diego last weekend and saw the 1 of 5 World Record Edition, it is sold and privately owns. It is 1 of 5 in the world, the most powerful and fastest street legal car at the moment. I thought this is worth posting:

It is not the best looking car in the world

But it sure is one of the most special

It is certainly the only factory 1200 hp car that is 100% civilized, it purr like a kitten and run 9s in the 1/4

It's too good to sit on grass like the other cars.

If you can afford one...you can afford the mirrored, rotating display platform to park it on!

I know its a special edition but I have never been into the flourescent orange paint. I like the "standard" super sports with the blue carbon fiber more

But the standard Super Sport is limited to only 258 mph, you might need the extra 10 mph from the orange car in a street racing situration

You know, you just can't lose to anything if you are driving a Veyron SS
