If the FXX were street legal, you may have a candidate worth debating. While the Zonda and F1 are outstanding cars, I don't see them as the same class of jawdropping overall package that bugatti put together. I'd compare it to a debate between a F-15 and a SR-71. The Blackbird would have no chance in a dogfight, but who would argue that the Blackbird isn't far and away the sexiest of the pair?

I see what you're going for, and I see we want different things from our super cars I'm just not really impressed with the styling of the Bugatti and that people sweat the ish out of it because of it's crazy top speed and acceleration. That's why I own an S2000 instead of a Mustang Cobra. The complete package of a sports car. Again, I'd find an F-15 to be more fun to pilot than an SR-71.

Fun, I'll give you. If the original question were best track supercar I'd jump on the Zonda bandwagon. While the Veyron may share some handling characteristics with a Diesel locomotive, it is an astonishing package.
