⚠️ Red Flags
(Fun Fact: The Vitesse’s roof can be removed at up to 130 km/h – no other hypercar allows this!)
(Bonus: The Vitesse’s rear spoiler doubles as an air brake – deploying in 0.4 seconds at 200 km/h!)
(Note: Bugatti limits Vitesse top-speed runs to 5 minutes max to prevent engine meltdown!)
