At full throttle, it gets 2 mpg which is terrible, even for a sports car. The 4 turbochargers (when not being used) would add to the fuel economy, but not much. I don't really think that this is really a car for driving as much as it is for show. The gear box is abysmal, and it doesn't even offer a fully manual transmission, which is a necessity when buying a sports car in my opinion. Those semi-automatics seem to be just fake to me, and not a real car. I have always said that if you don't know how to drive a manual, get an automatic, it's one or the other. It is also about half of the weight of a hummer weighing in at over 4,000 pounds. I would want a light car if i were to get a sports car, not a heavy one. I understand that fuel economy is not the biggest concern for sports car drivers, however, a little bit would be nice. This car can go 253 mph, but that really isn't that great because of what you sacrifice for it. I would rather get a honda s2000, because it is almost half the weight and it costs around 1/35 the cost of the veyron, and it doesn't get that bad of fuel economy. It seems like a car that the only thing about it that is important is top speed, not my car at all.
then dont buy one!!!!!!!!
