Because any car with a ratio of better than 12 lb/bhp is fun to drive... especially with grip of more than 0.9g... 10 lbs/bhp is even better.

because a black and red Veyron 16.4 was $1.375 million over my budget. The $25K black and red MCS simply had to do, and I just have to deal with the fact that it won't do 0-186mph in 16 seconds flat. haha.
