If it all sounds like an exaggeration, consider the acceleration figures and you might, just might, begin to appreciate the brutality of it all from the thigh-hugging confines of the deeply padded driver’s seat. Although the times are yet to be independently verified, Bugatti claims its new two-seater will hit 62 mph from a standstill in 2.5 seconds, 125 mph in 7.3 seconds, and amazingly, given it tips the scales at a rather portly 4300 pounds, 186 mph in just 16.8 seconds. The words “battering ram” come to mind.For comparison, a Porsche Carrera GT needs 34 seconds to reach that last mark, and we don’t recall anyone describing it as slow. ……Snip [http://www.autoweek.com/article.cms?articleId=103261](http://www.autoweek.com/article.cms?articleId=103261) ---

> [@MidgeX](#): > > yeah dude u can control it to lower for more stability if u reach like 138 mph There is actually a setting that you go to before you start the car that lowers it 2" off the ground, changes the wing, and pulls in tighter some vents in the front to reduce drag and change the downforce. :pimp: X… ---
