Unless you're a car enthusiast you may not know what a Bugatti is, but to those on the inside the storied automaker's upcoming model is probably the most intoxicating car to ever grace the planet.

The EB16.4 Veyron's quad-turbocharged 8.0-L W16 engine will boast the highest specific output of any production car, nothing short of 987-hp.
Factoring in its extremely lightweight carbon-fiber and aluminum construction, 7-speed dual-clutch paddle shift gearbox and all-wheel drive traction; the Veyron will be capable of ridiculously short sprints to highway speeds.

How ridiculous? Take a deep breath because the Bugatti's G forces might leave you gasping as it darts to 100 km/h (62 mph) in all but 2.9 seconds, maxing out at an officially claimed 405 km/h (252 mph). It reportedly remains stable at all speeds due to an aerodynamic shape with high downforce characteristics, as well as its reasonably hefty 1588 kg (3,500 lb) curb weight.
Such performance numbers eclipse any road going car to date, even the legendary McLaren F1 and spectacular new Ferrari Enzo.
