I wish I could find the Article about the Veyron I was reading that said ONE Tire for this Car costs $25,000 and a service costs $35,000!!



Aparently, it costs VW $5mm to build each Car and they sell them at a tremendous loss obviously...</blockquote>

From the article --



Four of this car?s Michelin PAX Pilots will set you back $25,000. If they?re mounted on wheels?a process undertaken only in France?well, that?s $70,000.

I thought it was $25k PER Tire...$70,000 a SET is pretty reasonable...sheesh!!
