I dont get what atari is thinking. This is suppose to be the best driving game out right now. So they don't put the best car out right now and probably for most of our lifetime.
stats:
A W-16 engine that can produce 1,001 horsepower
A top speed of 250+ mph (400+ kph)(they had to limit it)
A zero-to-60 time of three seconds
A zero-to-180 time of 14 seconds
seven gears
A dual clutch system
Sequential shifting
A paddle-driven, computer-controlled shifting system

It probably is to fast for them to put it in!:D But honestly I wish they would, maybe for future DLC? I would love to actually hit 250+ in a Veyron! Or even just cruise around with it at 60mph...Of course the first S7 owner that scratched it, I would have to kill them.
also great information on Veyron Frontman, but you left out one little minor detail. Its a quad-turbocharged and intercooled W-16.

It's wayyyyy too fast. They would need to make a fake version of the Veyron thats about as fast as the McLaren F1. Besides, you wouldn't want to see 8 Veyrons driving around at the same time, It would be even worse then the Saleen. :bulb:

so they should only put in like a 1/10 of how many people are playing. Everyone can get on a waiting list but it gets picked randomly so who gets the car is even. Then they can put more on the marketplace for good amount of points so it discourages them to buy or do they have enough guts to pay 600+ points for a car.

I too imagine this is the issue.

Well if you don't want everyone to have the Veyron... Its price is as amazing as the car, the price suits the car in reel life! So why not the price suit the car in TDU! Im talking over 15 Million TDU $! That would make sence! And I ain't crazy. The price should suit the car, its looks, and preformance.

well we do got microsoft on our side, im sure if they know how bad everyone wants one, we will see it in FM2, TDU as DLC or PGR4. along with the buggati EB110 GT so they get full use of the lisence:up:

Isn't Bugatti owned by Volkswagen though? Licensing shouldn't be too much of a problem. :)

thats true, then there is no excuse for no veyron and eb110. it would also add more cars to the VW dealership

I've heard that Bugatti won't license the Veyron out cuz they dont want it to be in video games. On the PGR3 message boards everyone said the same thing; that they wanted to see the Veyron, and the speculation was that Bugatti wont license the car out for use in video games... probably cuz they know it kicks so much @$$
Personally though, I would like to see the SSC Ultimate Aero TT in this game. I've heard they made the car for one purpose, and that was to beat the Veyron.

yes i did meant what i typed, but not anymore since i was reminded that buggati is owned by VW. Also if its true that they dont want the veyron to be in anygame, then thats a shame. i would love to own it ingame since its a great looking and fast car

i know they dont, but they do fund the developers, which that money is used for lisencing and other stuff. i said that because i thought they need to buy the lisence for buggatis(which maybe they still need to) but they might not since its owned by vw.:up:

Having this car in the game would be a bad thing...
Why you ask?
You would see more of them than you would see Honda Civics in real life...

Im not sure the Veyron can go 374mph, or any other car can. Maybe it can go that fast, but all i know is that the Veyron is limited to its speed, around 253 mph.

I never said 374mph, i said 274... and i was off by 1mph. According to the SSC Autos website, www.sscautos.com (http://www.sscautos.com%29:)
Ultimate Aero TT
HP: 1,180 bhp @ 6950 rpm
Torque: 961 lb./ft. @ 6150 rpm
Dry Weight: 2,750 lbs.
Top Speed: Up to 273 mph
(per Langley wind tunnel calculations)
check out the website and read up on this monster of a car yourself...

The only reason the Veyron is limited to 253 is because of the possibility of tire failure, they dont have a tire that is up to the rating to handle anything faster then that....or well...i say they dont...nothing they put on a road driven car i would assume. A full tire change would cost as much as buying a new Viper just to have tires that are rated to go fast so they dont shred or pop from the pressure of them going around so fast...and not to meantion the possibility of a small pebble or slight bump.

also we have the saleen and the kegg right now that when tuned can nudge 270 (if you get in them races with no traffic and find a straight and long enough road)
and the game engine can barely keep up, some times im reaching road thats barely been rendered yet lol!
so i think if they put the veyron in, which they should, they should probably limit or not allow it to be tuned. it should just stay stock. then its 250mph + top speed would just be manageable

i for one would like to see the pheaton, thats a quick machine too
everyone bangs on about the M5 and it being able to crack 200, but the pheaton can as well.

how many threads have i seen in forums about this car, yes love the car, and yes i would love to drive it virtually and realistically, but the thing is, Volkswagen announced that they dont want the Veyron in a game............ yet, so we will see it, just it may be a long wait for it, everyone wants a certain car to be put in, games designers will never be able to go out and get EVERY SINGLE CAR, especially if developers like EA keep nabbing liscenses, e.g. Porsche, (damn them) then we won't ever see cars like the veyron and many others in games, i want the Veyron in the game, i want many cars in the game, its just a game of chance whether atari will actually be able to get these liscenses

Putting a Veyron into a video game would diminish some of its ego and image, so to speak.
The Veyron is legendary. It is an icon. Godlike, and untouchable.
To put it into a video game, especially one such as TDU, would be to suggest it's common and widely available (even if most are aware that it isn't). It is a car meant to be driven by very select few. Not only an experience to drive, but a PRIVILEDGE.
A Veyron in a video game would hinder the image of the Veyron no matter what the circumstances.
Kudos to Bugatti for keeping it out of the virtual world.
Oh, and in addition, the Bugatti Veyron will NEVER be available in TDU, or ANY upcoming game. Sorry, kids.

I will probably get flamed for doing this but ohwell. Actually Doc, the car will be in video games, just not legally and done by the company as a 'legal' download. Here is a link to Need for Speed World (which for those that arent aware it is a community of people that make cars, tracks, tools, and whatever else for Need for Speed games) Bugatti Veyron (http://www.nd4spdworld.com/?section=car&v=4&s=search&searchby=&listorder=name&sortby=ASC&pagelimit=50&searchkey=Veyron)

I dont see why the car manufacturers are crying like babies...
The should be PROUD of their cars and bloody hell should let us Speed Freaks enjoy their cars in a GAME, because none of us is going to buy one of them in the future...
Like what are they going to lose by letting us Drive their cars around in Test Drive Unlimited...Huh ?
Not a dang thing...
OF Course the TDU cars must have perfect control and speed right :) ...

Yeah, I probably should have specified.
So, to specify:
The Bugatti Veyron will NEVER be in a video game that does not support usermods.

i see the mclaren f1 more of a icon then the veyron, true veyron is faster and everything but the f1 was revolutionary, and as far as i can tell, just because it is in all these games, doesnt change the fact that they are rare cars, or doesnt hinder its legendary image at all. u cant go up to a guy that owns a veyron or f1 and say yea its a ok car, i own one in TDU or NFS or w/e. u would look and be a jackass. a car being in the game doesnt change how rare or unique or legendary it is, and im sure in time we will see the veyron in games.

Alright, alright. I'll admit it. MAYBE, in 10 years time, MAYBE will we see a Veyron.
Maybe.
Look at it from the perspective of Bugatti, not the gamer.
