There is a red and black Veyron in the Midland/Odessa area (the guy also has some land around Blackwell). Same guy owns a few other supercars and used to own a McLaren F1 and Ferrari Enzo. I saw the F1 parked at a NAPA store in Sweetwater once and saw the Enzo right outside of San Angelo and between Blackwell and Sweetwater. Definitely freaks you out to see those 3 rare cars in this small town area.

that's nuts. just too see these cars are awe inspiring. The nicest cars I've seen like those are a cyber grey zr1, an 09 orange lambo 630? I got a pic of the lambo on my i phone.

I live down in Arkansas and if you ever heard of the town called Eureka Springs we have a Corvette and supercar weekend every year.

But... You could take the $1,000,000 you saved buying the ZR1, use about... $500,000 to mod the SHIT out of it, and smoke the veyron. Then have the other $500,000 to invest in rubber...

if i had the money to build or buy a supercar i would build a vette. I just like Corvettes. I know there are better cars out there, but Vettes just look badass and they're American Muscle.

anyways.... is that really a million dollar car?

Actually you can see it any time, Andy lives in Lufkin and it just so happens he has an Enzo also among several other nice cars. He went to Galveston following several friends in a bike group and he drives it around like any other car. He drove it over to Nacogdoches to the car show a couple of weeks ago and you could probably see it just about anywhere.

Saw at least 5 of those last week. I was in Las Vegas though.

Did someone really say they would take a Corvette over a Veyron? Please turn in your man card immediately.

Your little bro., has just lived the dream of many a car enthusiast. 99.99% of the world will never have a chance to sit in a $150,000 car much less a $1.5million car

Yeah I live in Germany about 40 min from Nurburgring and I rarely ever see anything like that even over here....but I do see a lot of cars with that camo material on the car (test cars).
