Comments from KDS:

卖相一泡污:

If those driving ordinary VW Santanas were to hit it, they would definitely be financially ruined.

小册老蛮灵:

The taxi driver is smart, staying far far away.

嘿 姑娘:

emoticonemoticon Too IB.

miYaGi:

Such a crowded street and yet such a distance between the cars [surrounding the Bugatti), the drivers behind are definitely thinking very clearly [to avoid getting too close].

J M:

Park 10 minutes in front of a bar/nightclub and all of the XS [girls] inside will run out~

wayio:

Go drive once around the Shanghai World Expo construction site and he can take it back to Europe for major repairs. emoticon

嘛咪嘛咪轰:

Meekly asks…what kind of car is this? Is it very valuable? emoticon

美错:

LZ‘s post is so funny…
first a partial frontal photo that [makes the car] look really impressive…
then a zoomed out photograph, showing that the road is blocked [with traffic]…
So no matter how impressive the car you drive on Shanghai’s streets, there’s no much difference from the ordinary Volkswagen Santana next to you. emoticonemoticonemoticonemoticon

上海地鐵:

A really nice house is driving around.

亚无蛋:

If a taxi driver “squeezes his asshole” [makes a nervous mistake],

one hit is 10 years of wasted work/earnings.

If one day he runs into a drunk driver who hits him, it can ruin someone’s life forever.

Driving a nice car shouldn’t be a risk to other people.

永恒の哀伤:

Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price: 25-43 million [RMB] emoticonemoticon Too bad it’s white, it would be cool if it were blue.

香港大圈仔:

All I see is a pile of RMB blocking the road. No, a ton of RMB.

10086:

So so so so cocky!!! Extremely hot! And it got a license plate?! I wonder which insurance company insures it, because insurance companies usually don’t dare to insure cars of this level. [Need insurance before you can get a license plate]

西瓜哥哥:

Who is going to repost this post to Liba? I really want to see what comments Liba girls will have. emoticon

花生酱尼桑:

Fuck, this is what IB is. emoticon

123456:

So niu, highest racetrack speed, nearly 400km/h. In Shanghai, averaging 40km/h would already be very “high” [exciting].

淚:

emoticon OMG, how many lifetimes would an ordinary common person need to earn this much money.
Evil society~~~ emoticon

Steven:

My schoolmate has seen [this car] on Huai Hai Road many times. I bet this guy drives around there every day. I really wish I could IB like this once. emoticonemoticonemoticonemoticonemoticonemoticonemoticonemoticon

粢饭糕:

I’m thinking if you let a parking attendant [valet boy] park this car, the valet boy’s hand would shake while driving…

一个好人:

Why are there so many people looking at this car? Why aren’t there any people looking at just who is driving this car, what kind of background, whether it is a man or a woman~~~~~That this car is is niu everyone knows, but the person who can afford such a car and get it licensed [and insured] is even more worth our attention and gossip. Human flesh search this.

Squeeze your asshole. chinaSMACK personals.

  • genghiz khan

    I prefer a horse myself but then again I’m Mongol

    • 可口可乐

      I’d like to take this car and run over all the crowds of staring Chinese. Now that’d be news worthy of a translation.

      Then I’d take a rickshaw to the closest skewer guy and relax knowing that I have contributed to the world.

    • Gana

      Mongols sucks at all!!!

  • krdr

    So surreal. Of course this guy showing off, as anyone else would.

    PS: “Squeez your ….” LOL. Fauna, keep going with this.

  • Doto

    I would be scared to death driving such an expensive car in the streets of shanghai.

    • GFZ

      LOL… you be scared? Imagine the other drivers driving near that car. One little accidental dink on that car and their lives would be financially ruined.

  • bill rich

    Has any body here ever heard of “insurance” ?

    • SLX

      LOL seriously these guys here probably have never driven a car before.
      I was thinking the same thing… g0t insurance? :P

    • too yellow

      The premiums are high, and it isn’t mandatory. Much like 70′s in the US when insurance isn’t mandatory most people don’t have it.

  • ecodelta

    Maybe it is made in China after all.

  • http://yanxishan.wordpress.com/ Yan Xishan

    I see these similar cars on the streets of Taiyuan (you know, home to China’s finest and wealthiest coal bosses). Personally I do not drive anything that, in a pinch, could not run on baijiu. Limits the options but I like the sense of security.

    • Carwyn

      Probably not, as only 200 – 220 were ever made and sold. And most cars you see on Taiyuan aren’t the fastest cars in the world or cost around one million pounds (pre-owned).

      • http://yanxishan.wordpress.com/ Yan Xishan

        “Similar,” as cars that are far too expensive to be driving around urban China.

        Not “similar” as in coal moss mistresses in in Taiyuan are driving Bugatti Veyrons, just not this exact car in the photo.

        • http://yanxishan.wordpress.com/ Yan Xishan

          Cause that would be silly. Even sillier than the typos in my above post. Moss mistresses?

          Back to drinking.

  • http://www.sun-zoo.com/chinageeks/ ChinaGeeks

    Why on earth would you choose white? So ugly…

    • Tins of sardines

      You racist. Your comment is against the laowailandians! All of my feloow countrymen must join together and rise against laowai oppressors like Chinageeks!

      Our glorious leader, Superman McDonald, must help us fight the minor races that seek to destroy our beautiful 50,000 year culture and beautiful language.

      Only once you have read “Spot goes to the zoo” and “Noddy shags big ears” will you realise how weak and stupid your language and culture is.

      Long live Laowailand!!!!!!

      Long live the West!!!!!!

      Long live Noddy!!!!!!

      • Somethin Somethin

        this made me laugh

  • 250

    Jesus, it looks like an ipod on wheels.
    I’m surprised noone has mentioned the size of the drivers genitals yet. I suppose we can take it for granted.

  • golly_ms_molly

    small cock, sir?

    • AgentZero

      Exactly what I was thinking. I think this dude is compensating for something he’s lacking in another department.

      However, can’t hate on a dude for choosing such a powerful car.

  • golly_ms_molly

    very poetic.

    *impressed*

  • MF

    I had a student in Shanghai who drove a Bentley. He actually had a guy who would follow him around in a regular car whenever he had to park in a busy place. They guy would park near him and then stand near his car as a “bodyguard.”

    • huh?

      I’m guessing this was a “sports” model since I don’t see why you wouldn’t want this bodyguard to be a chauffeur instead.

      • Mike

        Probably don’t want him to drive his precious Bentley coupe

      • Mike

        What’s the point of driving BV in Shanghai, total waste of its power.

  • UnclePu

    Considering the quality of the roads in China I wouldn’t want want an ultrahard sports car under no circumstances.

    I rather go for anything with air suspension. In a Bugatti, Ferrari or similar you can feel the shadows from bridges in your spine.

  • hugz

    Always a larf to see these things stuck in traffic and going nowhere, according to the great Guru Clarkson of Top Gear, its “bloody uncomfortable to sit around in”.

      Clarkson for Chairman!

  • 傻子

    i’d get a luxury 三轮车. pimp that shit out. get a personal peddler, enclose my ride. big screen TV. neon lights. yeah

    • Jean

      you say that, just because you don’t have the money to buy a a car, let alone a bicycle!

    • Alikese

      How about a pimped out 人力車?

  • Centrist

    I saw a cartoon once where there was a foreigner on the Beijing subway sitting on the left and an alien sitting on the right. In the middle were two Chinese guys, staring of course at the foreigner and uttering the obvious “laowai!”

    This is 2010, not 1910. Really, you Chinese care too much about what other people are doing and fail to focus on their own lives.

    Who cares about someone else’s car? Look at it, appreciate it, and go on. Don’t stare at it endlessly until it is out of sight as if you will never see one again.

    “shan pao”… really.

    • http://cnreviews.com Kai

      What does the cartoon caricaturing Chinese people noticing foreigners have to do with some people admiring/envying a car they know to be extremely expensive?

      How is admiring/envying someone who can afford such an extremely expensive car suggest that they care “too much about what other people are doing”, more than most people? How does that suggest they “fail to focus on their own lives”?

      How is this phenomenon of staring at something that catches your eye and interest specifically “Chinese” anyway? You’ve never seen non-Chinese people gawk at things before?

      “You care too much about what Chinese people are doing and fail to focus on your own life?”

      Cripes man.

  • GFZ

    Such a waste to drive one of these cars in downtown Shanghai during the day. At least drive it at night. Maybe run a red light and some people over too.

  • Girlyman

    I have seen a bugatti going faster than its shadow. The car’s shadow fell way way behind the car, believe it or not. That is how fast bugatti can run. No shit. LOL..

  • mingster

    Guys! If anyone of you sees this Veyron again, scratch it!

  • Ruud

    It is just a matter of time before you will find pictures of this exact same car here: http://www.wreckedexotics.com/

    Some of this white Veyrons brothers are up there already ;)

  • FYIADragoon

    I bet this guy sees mad mistresses. Man I would key this guy’s car so badly if I had the opportunity to do it secretly.

    • SLX

      if you want mistresses unfortunately having just a car wont do, you need some extra cash too.

    • 可口可乐

      What’s with all this talk of keying cars? You are just as low as those peasant Chinese who all-day have thoughts of doing this. Despicable.

      You need to see a shrink to find out what your problem is; either that or get off your ass and get a better paying job so you can feel better about yourself.

  • ShanghaiSteve

    It’s faster to walk down Huaihai Lu.

  • FDI

    Look, you all jealous people, admit it, its fun driving it around. We humans are all shallow unconsciously whether you agree with the truth or not, and whatever you will say otherwise is just mere indication of your envy.

    There are guys who has money to burn, cars like that to them are just like buying a computer for a normal human being.

    Trash it, crash it, pick up girls, scratch it, race with shanghai taxis are just something rich bored people do to find amusement in life.

    • the critic

      Not jealous of your english skills.

      Sue whoever’s teaching you.

      [Note from Fauna: Please do not use multiple names.]

    • LOLZ

      Exactly, what’s the point of trying to make money if you can’t spend it in style?

  • tomjay

    wow, that is expensive

  • Chicken of the Sea

    As expected the plebean masses have to playa hate on the baller.

    This guy obviously is just showing off his brand new ride. Ballin’. If he wanted to actually drive it Shanghai’s raised freeways are pretty clear at night. Zoom Zoom.

    • http://i39.tinypic.com/rt3qdz.jpg Victor Straight Ballin

      So true dude, High five.

  • THE KID

    SOMEONE HAS MONEY !!! WWWOOOWWEEEEEE

    **** LETS ALL GET EXCITED AND TALK ABOUT SOME RICH PERSON, THAT’S WHAT WE DO IN CHINA …..RIGHT ?

    is this the 1940′s ?

    • Chicken of the Sea

      THATS RIGHT ITS 2010 GOSH DURNIT.

      LETS ALL GET EXCITED AND TALK ABOUT LADY GAGA’S AMBIGUOUS PENIS AND ANOTHER FAMOUS PERSON’S ADOPTED AFRICAN CHILD. THAT’S HOW WE DO.

  • Zebadee

    So that’s the bastard who stole my car!

  • dethebile

    So Zebadee, you stole my car?

  • too yellow

    What’s the point of driving this such horrid traffic, at least Dubai have a nice desert outside to do top gear shows.

  • Chimerican

    This was a rented car for a day to show off in a big city. This guy only paid a little more than renting a regular car. So what is the big deal?? Anyone can affort it.

    • http://i39.tinypic.com/rt3qdz.jpg Victor Straight Ballin

      First, there are no Bugattis for rental in China, not even old Ferraris and second a Bugatti costs like usd$2-3k for a single day(a minimum of 2-3 days sometimes is mandatory so $8k-$10k) which is too expensive to the average person mainly in China not to say you must be 30+ and make a safe deposit of like usd$5-10k to rent some cars in case you crash it, an amount a lot of people cannot afford to risk in a rental.
      Renting a Bugatti or even a Ferrari definitely isn’t to the poor, I’m sure you never rented an expensive car in your trips to state that.

      People talking about the owner’s dick size are just a bunch of losers, don’t tell me you would not buy a Lambo, a Ferrari or similar car if you had like a 100 million dollars of net worth. Get real and go work, maybe if you are good enough you’ll be able to buy a decent sports car become a real straight baller. xD

  • Dongdong

    If I come back home with a car like that, it’ll be a great disappointment for my father who has always taught me interest in expensive cars was the most retarded stage a human being could reach.
    Seriously, who cares ?
    He can show off 10 min, good for him, that just proves he’s dumb (or he wouldn’t waste his money with that).

  • The John

    Ok, well.

    I think… GOOD FOR HIM!

    Do we have to assume that he is showing off…

    If anything, I wouldn’t spend money on a expensive car, because I don’t like exotic vehicles.

    On the other hand, if a man did an honest days work, he should be able to enjoy his money. We don’t look down on people that blow their cash on bars/clubs, fake goods, and other things…

    So, why hate this guy?

    The only thing I couldn’t accept is, if he got his toys through illegal/corrupt means…

    But, if he didn’t… Let him party…

    I say… Good for him!

    • SLX

      well yeah nothing wrong with him…

      Its just most guys on here has never even heard of car insurance.

  • I’m in Wuxi

    I’ll bet you that the laowai driving that car is banging serious amounts of shanghai girls…

  • Joe Banks

    Italian piece of shit!

    Really, I don’t much care for those kind of cars, and would not buy that if I could afford it. Nor would I even drive if I could afford it. Fark driving, especially in China and VERY ESPECIALLY in Shanghai. Unless it’s a limo with liquor and a pee bottle, there is no good way to sit through Shanghai traffic.

    It’s a car. I don’t know what a 10 million RMB car can give you that a One Million RMB car could not. Just saying. Where would you park the thing?

    • http://i39.tinypic.com/rt3qdz.jpg Victor Straight Ballin

      Dude, I doubt you’d say that if you had a 100 million dollars or more. One more thing, no offense really but China isn’t US where cars sells for the “price of a bicycle” and you see burger flippers driving decents Audis and Bmws.
      As you said it costs 10 million rmb(usd$1.5) but in US, in China it’s at least 16 mi rmb and if you think that is crazy imagine in Brazil where this car won’t sell for under 22 million rmb if you import by yourself which is the cheaper way. lol

      btw this car is around $2 million dollars now in US.

  • lee

    The rich n the famous = CHINESE…..NO QUESTION ASK

  • LOLZ

    Nice car. Most of the people who own these cars don’t actually drive them, so it’s good to see these things actually being used for what they are, cars.

    What is the big deal here? The owner is just human like the rest of us. He needs to eat, sleep, go to the restroom, and even if he was the emperor of China he still has 24 hours a day like the rest of us…

    the only difference between he and I is:

    with all that money I would be using it to start a shelter for all those poor dogs in China that are skinned alive or help find those rabbit crushing “变态” people. Some of the richest people I know are the stingiest AMEN

    but I guess that’s how they got rich in the first place hm?

    I don’t know this guy but what if he’s just a shallow guy with no aim in life but materialistic things and no humanity at all?

    There’s a famous Chinese saying that goes,” A man was so poor that all he had was money left”

  • Chinglish

    Yeah,you’re right.The streamlined vehicle are always girl’s eye-catching.

    Sorry I even hadn’t heard of “Bugatti” before.The appearance of the compact(maybe not proper,sorry for my bad English) resembles the shiny surface of Apple notebook.

  • Chinglish

    Seems you know much about such super stars?Questions(no intention of offensiveness):Do Americans talk such things openly?The porno magazines or books or CDs are saled in the public bookstores?

  • Alikese

    Considering that it’s the single greatest car ever built I imagine that there will still be a market for them in a few years. The McClaren F1 has actually gone up in price since it’s release.
