No, Bernd, it would probably not.
I'm a "build it, don't buy it" type.  I will likely never be worth $500 million,
and I'm not interested in debating what I'd consider valuable if I were.  It
ain't gonna happen.

But I don't have to be worth $500 million to see that there is a much better
value than the Bugatti.

Great.   That would be a good way for a maker of an expensive car to show they
do not feel they are above government laws.

But it doesn't hold any weight.

Well you sure as he-- didn't ask if we cared before you started down this road.  

You asked the question about reasonable price for a level of performance.  I've
found it and stated it.  I can see you're enamored of the Bugatti  But it's an
example of a car built to flaunt extravagance and wealth and Bugatti uses
performance as a major portion of the justification for the cost.  The US car is
an example of a car built to provide a certain level of performance and the
price justifies the work that went into development and the work that goes into
manufacturing.
