> All American Chevrolet of Midland, Texas just made the mother-of-all-trades when it accepted a Euro-bombing 2008 Bugatti Veyron with just 2,307 miles for an unabashedly American Corvette ZR1. A new Veyron lists for about $1.6 million and a used one still costs in the range of $1.4 to $3.6 million depending on condition, trim, and rarity. A new Corvette ZR1, by comparison, starts at around $107,000.

Chalk that up in the win column because it certainly does with the Bugatti. Also, the Bugatti doesn’t have the righteousness of an American-built supercar.

wtf :ham:

This was traded in close to me here in Houston. Guy is super cool FYI.

Yah so he got a ZR1 plus like a million bucks who cares. By the way he DD’s his cars, the B has like 40K miles on it.

Edit: Plus this guy has a bunch of other cars to drive. It isn’t his only car.

Imagine picking up a Veyron for 1.6 million, driving it as a toy for a year or so, then selling it for more than you paid.
