These $1MM cars serve a couple of purposes:
- In the case of the Veyron, they are a show case for VW Engineering, and a development platform for lower models where the technology can filter down
- They are toys… Just as I could afford a $2k car when i was a student, and something a bit nicer now, many people would not notice $1MM. and the more exclusive the better (the Veyron is “common” to some)
- A lot of these smaller manufacturers are owned by millionaires, and car freaks who just want to build their dreams ( look at Aston’s history, Koiningsegg (sp.), etc)
Are they worth it? to me no! I’d rather get 15 AM Vantage V8 than a Veyron, but then i can aford neither so irrelevant
