Chris Brown Shows Off in a Bugatti Veyron

Whether he owns it or not, Chris Brown has just given us $1.5 million reasons to hate him, as he was recently spotted driving a red and black Bugatti Veyron.

According to fafarazzi.com, Chris Brown parked the car and then went shopping at a Louis Vuitton store in Miami with fellow singer Omarion.

Only 200 Veyron models are known to have been built and delivered since production began in 2005. One hundred more are to be built until the end of the production cycle. The vehicle got its name after the French racing driver Pierre Veyron, who won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1939, while racing for the Bugatti company.

The Veyron features an 8.0L W16 engine, fed by four turbochargers and develops ... 1,001 horsepower. The transmission consists of a dual-clutch Direct-Shift Gearbox computer-controlled manual gearbox with seven gear ratios, with magnesium paddles behind the steering wheel and a shift time of less than 150 milliseconds.

The car’s top speed is listed at 407 km/h (253 mph). What is really interesting is that when the car reaches 220 km/h (140 mph), hydraulics lower the car until it has a ground clearance of about 8.9 cm, while the wing and spoiler deploy.

And these are just o couple of things that can be said about a Veyron.

We just hope he won’t bang Rihanna’s head against the Veyron’s window, like he did with the rented silver Lamborghini Spyder in the Grammys’ day.

Brown pleaded not guilty in front of the L.A. Court of Law at the beginning of April, but he will face the L.A. Supreme Court of Law on June 22.

According to her lawyer, Rihanna will testify against her former boyfriend. If Brown is found guilty, he will look at a penalty of up to four years in prison.
