dunno, if you type "barabus" into google, and go on images, theres 2 sites with sketchy details -

http://www.autoblog.nl/archive/2006/07/18/barabus-1005pk
http://news.caradisiac.com/Barabus-supercar-1005-ch-609

both in silly languages... but neither have figures for 0-62

figures do seem a bit OTT (though the koenigsegg is suppose to be able to do 250-270 with a bit of tweaking ), but i think its possible but it hasnt be revealed yet, but can't wait until someone gets hold of one and get some stats! Though its looks a bit rough, especially the back end and the interior looks a bit max power

Ahh, I wondered why it had a yank V8 rather than a Merc engine, and I thought it looked a bit overstated for a Brabus product.

That's a relief then... phew.

Michelin has had to produce unique tyres to handle the Veyron 16.4’s unique performance. The rear tyres at 14.4-inches (540mm) in width are the widest fitted to a production car.

540mm wide !
