So I was out for a jog when I hear this noise coming from down the big hill behind my neighborhood (I run the hill for the exercise, it also happens to be where all the multi-millionaires live...). I look behind me and I see this van driving real slow with about 30 bicycles behind it, and think nothing of it and keep on jogging.

As I turn the corner and wait for the cross light to turn, the van and bikes catch up, so I waited and let them cross, as they passed I could see a really low roof line with two humps behind them... Hrrrmmm... Then I make out the full figure, Its a Veyron!

NO WAIT. ITS TWO FREAKING VEYRONS!

They have guys on skate boards filming, some of the bicycles have cameras, and the lead van and chase car also have cameras everywhere.

Well I am about a half a mile from my house, with no cell phone or viable means of acquiring pictures of this rare sight. I think to myself, you know who would enjoy this? Oppo.

So I damn near killed myself sprinting home so I could run upstairs and grab my phone and the keys to the Jeep to chase these to Bugattis down and bring you terrible cell phone video of two Bugattis driving down the road at a snails pace. EN-FREAKING-JOY!

For those of you whom listen to rap, I presume this will be in a video sometime soon, so if you see it let me know.

(and please, feel free to scold me for video-ing while driving, I dont care, two Bugattis)

Ha! Awesome. Your commitment to your fellow Opponauts in the pursuit of hypercar SR20 is enviable.

Ya know I think you're right. I know he lives in this area (just didn't realize he was this close) and now that I think about it, it did kinda look like him driving.

I think most of us have seen pictures and videos of Veyrons on the Internet, but A+ effort! I know I'd be pretty excited to see one in person.

That's awesome.

Here in Northern Va, I haven't even seen on Veyron driving around. Much less two of them.

The very rich folk to have a thing with any type of Maybach though, I've noticed.

If anyone scolds I'll make sure and have a stern talking to them. How could they possible be mad about two Bugattis? We got you.

Out here the sign of "Making it" is when you can buy either an new Bentley or a new AMG. I swear every other Benz in this neighborhood has an AMG tag on it. Not because these people like cars or need / want the big power AMG offers; they just buy it because it costs more...

All I could think is WHERE ARE YOUR DOORS!? Your car has no doors. What is going on!?

Its a Jeep...

Its not meant to have Roof, Doors, Clean paint.

Lame. Seems like the only reason to buy a Maybach. "I paid more than you did."

Thats exactly what it is.

"Any old hobo can buy an E-class, but you have to be worth something to afford the S-Class AMG" (my best rich guy impression)

Ugh. At least it means there will always be lightly used and (hopefully) well-maintained super sports sedans available for us enthusiasts on the used market. But they'll only get softer and heavier if these are the main people buying them new...

Yeah, it seems too often that people buy cars just as "Status Symbols" even if they don't give two shits about Cars, nothing says "I've made it" like a Mercedes G63 Amg.

I think the bigger question is where did ur spare tire go?

I think its missing....

That explains the missing spare.

I was making sure you weren't following the new trend I've scene out here. People are taking the spares off their wranglers, I think they upgrade the wheels/tires and can't afford a 5th, but there's even aftermarket plates to fill in the mounting spot on the tailgate...it's weird

Yupp, call it a tramp stamp. It actually helps if you any crawling as you don't have a massive tire killing your exit angle. I use mine for overland so I need a 5th wheel, just in case. I just haven't bought new lug nuts to hold the spare on since my little incident.

Unfortunately I've seen it on Jeeps that probably have never touched dirt let alone rocks...

04/24/2014 at 12:32

Me too. It makes me sad. Although the worst is the guy who buys 4 big tires then leaves the normal size spare out back. At that point I would rather see no spare.

Hahahaha I've seen that countless times around here too!

You're right, that guy is SOO MUCH WORSE
