:mindblown: @ the cost of owning a Bugatti

[Turk]

Here's a general idea of how much it costs to own a Bugatti Veyron.

Jalopnik
The first $2,500,000 (MSRP for a Veyron) you send to Bugatti is just the beginning of a long list of bills you’ll rack up owning this exclusive supercar. Some owners peg yearly running costs at around $300,000 a year! So if you’re in the market for one of these, here are some facts to consider.

• $350,000 is the initial down payment according to Bugatti that you have to have in order to even consider buying one.
• $24,000 is what it costs to lease a Bugatti Veyron on a monthly basis. But there are a few caveats. You can only drive 2500 miles a year (technically 7 miles a day) and you can lease only for 5 years.
• $40,000 is what it's going to cost you just to deliver your Veyron to American shores. Yes, for the price of a 2013 Infiniti G37 Coupe, yours is just delivered.
• $2500 is the average monthly insurance that one owner reported on their Bugatti Veyron.
• $140 is the average price for a fillup of gas in the United States. City gas mileage is 8 and highway isn't much better at 13. The 1001 horsepowe r8.0-litre, quad-turbocharged, W16 engine is a thirsty beast and with gas hovering around $5 a gallon and your 26.4 gallon fuel tank, fill-ups alone are around $140.
• And upon delivery, there are certain maintenance items you are required under contract to do which includes a routine annual maintenance of $20,000, detailing services around $10,000, a wheel and tire replacement every 10,000 miles with a price tag of $50,000 for a set of tires.

Now that $300,000 yearly maintenance comes into perspective. But if you're considering buying a Bugatti Veyron in the first place, money doesn't really seem like such a problem anyway.

It's not worth it man. I don't care how much money you have.

cats like floyd who have multiple bugatti's don't even drive em that much, so there's not gonna be much maintenance involved.

If I had a 100+ M's I'd at least lease one

 

[scarlxrd]

LOL @ owning at that level. Leasing is the only option when you're making that much money.

$10,000 for a detail when you only drive it 2,000 miles a year? The clearcoat won't even have any signs of wear, it won't even need a wax, let alone a $10k detail.

345mm tires are $600/piece, and Bugatti tires are 365mm so around $1k/piece. Again, if you're going 2,500 miles a year, the tires should still have ALL the tread unless you're literally doing but outs from stoplight to stoplight. And unless you're hitting potholes the wheels should not need replacing either, so $50k for wheels and tires is more like $5k.

That 40k for delivery is what Volkswagen charges for THEM to deliver it. If you by it and put it on a truck, you'll pay 1/10th of that. And if you're in a high profile area you take delivery at the dealership anyway.

Inflated numbers for a sensationalized article.

And also an ugly car, in my opinion.

didn't t-pain make a video showing how excited he was to have just bought a used one, and then turned right around a year or so later and had to sell it? i could have sworn i saw this on worldstar a couple of years ago. son really acted like he finally made it up out the hood when bought that machine.

Not to mention as soon as you leave the dealership depreciation kicks in. Then again if you got one you have the money to burn, and when you pull up outside a club you know those hoes be scoping you like they on the other end of a sniper rifle ready to assassinate.

They're overrated to me

Doesn't matter it's an instant loss when you are constantly incurring a loss on a product that costs that much, even when your not using it.

You could buy one and waste money or you could look into making a car company to which wasteful people will buy a car like that from you
