Attempting to beat the Bugatti Veyron’s 400kph top speed, Michael Pettipas built the GP Limo hoping to breaking 480kph. Three years later, although the Veyron still holds the record, the limo still holds our attention.
Those crazy nutcases from Top Gear have pitted a 254mph Bugatti Veyron against a 1460km/h Eurofighter Typhoon strike fighter. And surprisingly, the mad Hamster almost won against your typically-mad Typhoon pilot:
I really hope this trend dies soon: Yet another high-end auto maker is jumping into the gadget/home appliance business, giving non-rich people the chance to spend way too much money on something just because of a brand name, even if they can’t afford a six-figure car. This time it’s Bugatti, bringing their experience with engineering sports cars into the equally fast-paced world of toasters. Wow, how incredibly lame.

I hope it’s worth it. [Product Page via Crave]
