i was thinking the same thing
wonder if they checked to see if it was. 20K miles on it means it's been around the block. i would hate to have it serviced, i'm sure it costs alot. i heard a ferrari tuneup you have to drop the motor out or something to that effect. the tuneup was in the 15k range, was on supercars on speed channel.
Probably the one they fished out of the lake...............

No that one is on there also. It was grey and black.

could have painted it
when you were cashing the insurance check so nobody says isn't that the one that went for a swim.

No wonder he's trading it, it's wornout with 2,107 miles on it. 
Also with a used car value of just between $1.4 to $3.6 million dollars it sounds like the right thing to do, is to trade it for a corvette that sold for new at $107,000. That is one smart fella
Do you suppose he owns some ocean front property in AZ.

A fella could buy a LOT of Turbo Regals for what a maintenance job costs on a Veyron.
Veyron Owner Finds Private Jet Travel Cheaper - Bugatti Veyron - Jalopnik
...$21,000 for a routine service, $38,500 for a set of four tires and $46,000 every fourth tire change to have his wheels x-rayed to check for stress fractures. In comparison, an annual service on a Ferrari Enzo costs just $2,730.
Not sure if I'd put 100% faith in that link. The Enzo maintenance cost seems unusually low.

True enough. But getting it to achieve 250+ MPH without blowing apart is another story altogether.i don't know why you guy's are so shocked all that coin for that ugly thing.you can make a 1000 horse alot cheaper
As far as a Veyron being ugly, well... It's functional. And sometimes function ain't pretty. I'd glady drive one. That's for sure.
This was posted on the corvette forum also...This was not some Idiot that walked into the dealership and said.."Hey...I like that corvette,I will trade you even for this Veyron."
The dealership put lots of cash along with the Vette to Acquire the Veyron.

it states in the article, cash along with the vette & that they had to find a buyer first. you can be assured there was NO "cash" involved in a million + $ deal.

It may be the most advanced car ever made but sure aint pretty. In fact, id say it's pretty dam ugly and has even uglier color schemes.
