Play to win the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport and Nissan Z GT500 Test Car #230

2009 Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport

What’s the fastest car in the world? The answer to that question is a bit complex, as there are records for production cars, all-out dragster records and rocket-powered cars too. But for many people, the car that comes to mind is the Bugatti Veyron. It’s no longer a record holder, of course, as there are newer cars including from Bugatti itself that have a higher top speed than the 253mph this Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport achieved in 2009, but the Veyron was such an icon back in the day that it retains its spot in the hearts of so many car fans around the world.

Having said that, this is the Grand Sport model, meaning there’s a removable roof. Take that out and the car tops out at 224mph, although we’d wager there could be some wind noise at that speed. Don’t leave anything loose on the passenger seat and head out at 200mph either. 

The Bugatti isn’t just famous for its top speed, but also its crazy quad-turbo W16 engine with just under 1,000bhp and 922 lb-ft of torque. It’s a monster of an engine and an all-time great in its own right. The Veyron Grand Sport perhaps isn’t the style icon that it always wished to be, though - does it remind anyone else of a Daihatsu Copen?

2021 Nissan Z GT500 Test Car #230

Japan’s Super GT racing car class has produced some absolute crackers over the years, and manufacturers striving for success there have brought us some of the greatest-ever road cars. The likes of the GT-R and NSX benefit from race tech used in the series, and Nissan’s Z GT500 was one of 2021’s more notable entrants.

Unlike the Nissan Z road car, the GT500 model uses a 2.0-litre turbo four-cylinder engine rather than a V6, along with a race-spec sequential gearbox and plenty of aero-focused tweaks to the bodywork and a huge rear wing.

Test Car #230 featured a blacked-out paint job with carbon-fibre aero sections and even all-black wheels as well. With no sponsor livery, Nissan’s in-house tuner Nismo is the most prominent logo on the car. With 650bhp and weighing just over a tonne, the Z GT500 is rather different from the road car it’s designed in part to promote.
