Devel?! That 5000 hp number is complete BS. That car sounds like it has been detuned to a more realistic 666hp. Infidel!

Who the hell is engineering the tires for this thing. I always thought the Bugatti was pushing tire technology as is... Not to mention this is one ugly ass exotic. It reminds me of someone taking a Mach 5 from childhood and ruining it. I love the (hidden) video of the car. If you look closely there are tons of Arabs walking around the car holding camera phones. How in the world is this a hidden video.

Those Arab guys look ready to take out their $3.4 million from their back pocket.

I know. It doesnt even have to be an actual course, id settle for a Dyno run showing it can get up to claimed speed and not blow up tires or the engine.

I wouldn't even want to go over 100 mph in that thing. Just look at the brakes....

A) I'd love to see the maintenance intervals/re-build schedule.
B) No one is surprised an engine can make 5000HP. It's doing that reliably thats the amazing part. (Seriously a Billet everything with 4 81mm turbos? Not surprising).

Also interesting what all this is to make at cost. You have to figure they're likely not going for any EU/US crash/emissons regs so it's going to be a drag race motor in a carbon chassis akin to a GT car.

It's the Dubai version of the Hennessey Venom...

Can you imagine what this thing could do with some bolt-ons and a minor tune?

4,500 hp at 36 psi. Sounds like a KABOOM to come.

Looks like 2 LS V8 engines combined. Good thing it is aimed at buyers in the region with all that cheap oil. Probably would make a Lamborghini Aventador appear fuel efficient.
