If you grew up in the mid-2000s, the Bugatti Veyron was THE car. It was this generation’s Mclaren F1. I still remember seeing one in Palo Alto, CA for the first time in 2008. The presence was commanding and unlike anything else. This issue does a deep dive into the Bugatti Veyron and also covers a ton of other topics like the UAW strike delaying the Z06.
