		<description>If they think they can&#039;t do airbags for less that $100,000 per car, then they have much worse problems than this.</description>

		<description>Ohh Reb don&#039;t tell us not to post here if we can&#039;t afford a Veyron... I&#039;m sure you can&#039;t and if you can then prove it
They should make it exempt from the mandate like they did with Ferrari... this isn&#039;t made for safety but for speed.
I&#039;m sure the insurance costs a TON on this car... I would love to see if anybody has a quote for it ;)</description>

		<description>A better question is how is something like that missing from a 1.3 million dollar car in the first place.  They&#039;ve been standard on many luxury cars for half a decade.</description>

		<description>Just a few of the cars some very determined people from all walks of life with varying levels of personal finance REALLY WANT and are willing to pay RIDICULOUS MONEY FOR that the DOT, NHTSA and EPA Emissions agencies seem to have a bug up their asses about:

Porsche 959
Ferarri Enzo
Various Lambos
TVR vehicles
ANY R32-R34 Skyline GT-R
Koenigsegg CCX
And now the Bugatti Veyron

Feel free to contribute.  I&#039;m sure I&#039;ve left a good 70+ vehicles out of this tiny list of examples.  Remember folks, ONE IN TWENTY PEOPLE OWN AND AFFORD UPKEEP ON ONE OF THESE FANTASTIC LOW PRODUCTION CARS :)

It&#039;s a lot of money to waste on a car, so let a prospective buyer have their cake in peace.</description>

		<description>Perfectly alright to stuff 10 illegal immigrants on a rusted out pick up truck with expired tags and drive around Florida all day long.  Very limited production $1 million plus car with no airbags?  Forget it!!  Thank you NHTSA for protecting all of us.</description>

		<description>I really doubt any of the people complaining here can buy a Veyron.  If you can prove it and do not talk about someone else.  If you can buy a Bugatti Veyron, prove it and then feel free to compain here.  To the others, quit living in fantasy world.  How lame is it to complain about something you can never own.  Bugatti and thier supercar is awesome and I love it, but if they go out of business, it is their own fault.  Everyone knows the rules and that is life.</description>

		<description>This is about as silly a complaint as I have ever heard. Make no mistake, I oppose airbags, be they smart or be they dumb. Mandatory seatbeat laws save many more lives than do airbags. But my opposition to airbags does not change the fact their use is mandated by law. They have been mandated by law for years--years before the Bugatti was even proposed.

Volkswagen knew the law when it built the Bugatti. If it did so in hopes that the US would give it a waiver at the last minute--too bad. VW made stupid bet and it lost. 

If Volkswagen doesn&#039;t want to bring the Bugatti into compliance with US law, let it find a country where the car can be sold legally.</description>

		<description>I&#039;d say leave the American market. Pull all Lamborghini&#039;s, Ferrari&#039;s, Lotus, Aston Martins, Porsches, Bugatti&#039;s, Maserati&#039;s etc. off the market.
Enjoy your GT40 cowboys!

Unfortunately it ain&#039;t gonna happen cause Beverly Hills has quite some customers...</description>

		<description>It should be exempt, but a recent study just came out (maybe on autoblog) that showed how car related deaths are only going down because of car safety, not better driving habits.  But doesn&#039;t Lotus have some sort of deal worked out for their low headlights or something?  Why can&#039;t Bugatti do that?</description>

		<description>WOW those are some fairly large losses...
I can understand if they want to make safe cars even safer, but please this car isn&#039;t made for safety. We probably will never see a family of children in one of these. A few of them will sit in garages, while there will be the few that will actually occasionally drive them.
Make family cars safer, not high performance cars.</description>

		<description>Put them out of business??  Don&#039;t they sell these car anywhere but the U.S.?  I don&#039;t see how a 10% increase in price will lead to these doomsday consequences (Bugatti&#039;s number).  Is this just VW spinning the old &quot;you can prove anything with numbers&quot; game?</description>

		<description>For the price of one of these piles of crap, one could be driving around in a Hummer or a Fine GMT-900 SUV instead. Americans don&#039;t need some glorified Volkswagon here in the states anyways since we&#039;d all prefer GM vehicles anyways</description>

		<description>Most strippers aren&#039;t fat pigs, they are petite.  Therefore, if you crash a Veyron with a stripper in the passenger seat (which is highly likely considering the type of clientele that will purchase the Veyron), and if it doesn&#039;t have smart airbags, she will likely will be severly injured or killed.
And we all know that there are already enough dead strippers in the streets.</description>

		<description>Good old US laws keeping the decent cars out of our hands yet again.

I was hoping that that new cheap 4 cylinder Bugatti was going to made and sold.  It was reportedly going to be around $60K and  designed to be a lighweight sports car to fight the Lotus Elises of the world.</description>

		<description>Thanks America. First you put Jaguar in trouble and now your doing this to Bugatti. Everybody should drive golf carts, or are they too fast for you? No wonder you dont have roundabouts.</description>
