What are you, on freaking drugs?
For that kind of money, damn near anybody could build a car willing to do that
speed.  Go ahead and stretch the definitions beyond reasonable. 

Street car my arse.  Ok, 200mph, no problem.  Last year's nascar cars are for
sale.  Check out the silver state classic, that's where the average joe gets to
run 'em.  So it's on a street, and it's a car, so makes it a street car?  Ya,
ok.  And compared to the Porch it's cheap enough that we can buy a case of beer
and a small motel for the after race celebration.

Send those happy pills over here.  I'd like to see what color the sky really is
in your world.

At 300 models per year, the Bugatti hardly qualifies as a production vehicle,
let alone a street car.  Bicycle factories produce more units than that.

Yes, and I read about that car 3 years ago.  It was a promised item then.

OMG! LMAO!
So... kinda pointless, no?

$150k US dollars for the "Buy it, don't build it" crowd.  

They'll never drive that fast anyway.
