The comparison is irrelevant; I was simply responding to your statement that the Veyron isn't a performance car. The fact that a homebuilt allegedly beats it on a metric or two hardly means that it's no longer a performance car. That's like saying that I can build a model rocket with a higher P/W ratio than an F-22, so the F-22 isn't really a performance jet.
Dude, the original comment and the point of the thread was price per performance. You are technically correct but missing the point in saying that the Veyron is a "performance" car, and I stand by my statement that it is 6% performance and 94% flash and exclusivity.
Your comments regarding P/W and comparison of an F-22 to a rocket are illogical. A rocket is not a fighter jet, but an GTR720 is an automobile, one which in every way out performs a Veyron at 1/14 the price.
If you feel the need to make sure that the Veyron is labeled as a "performance" car, continue to repeat yourself. You will be missing the forest for the trees, because no one purchases this car based on performance.
