Default What wouldn't you buy?

If I had the money to buy any car in the world. I would never buy the Veyron. i don't care how much horsepower it has, or how fast its top speed is, It's ugly from the front, and cost 1.5 million. I'd take a CCX. How bout you guys?

I don't think the Veyron is that ugly. The CCX does look alot nicer though.

Agreed, the Veyron is ugly IMO. My fav is the Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione coupe, in red of course.

I also would NOT buy any of the outrageously priced Benzes, except for the following, which I love:
1) the new lmtd production Stirling Moss model (at $1 million and something as I recall)
2) a 1950s 300 SL gullwing coupe or convertible (at much more than that).

+1 on the Veyron. Although I admire the technology behind it, I doubt I'd own one.
