I personally despise it due in part to it looking like the head of a cyborg pig but mainly because of all the incessant undeserved hype about a car that's impressive on paper and then that's as far as it goes. The Bugatti Cyberpig requires several miles of the most optimal roadway that you can find on the planet just to reach its top speed, meaning you couldn't realistically hit it on any road or highway or even any racetrack (laps around Daytona just won't cut it) so it's a top speed that's essentially worthless.
Top speed is also about the only thing it can do, once you've given it time to get there, since it handles like a van. "Okay, but it's really fast for a two-ton van!" That's fine if it was supposed to just be a people-carrier, but it's a supercar, and relative to other supercars it handles like a sack of bricks. It's impressive if you're running it against minivans, but if you lap a race track next to proper supercars the illusion of impressiveness is shattered.
The Cyberpig has a 8.0-liter W16 engine with four turbochargers and just got in the 1000-horsepower range (a bit under for the regular Veyron and a bit more for the Super Sport). Ferrari's FXX Evoluzione gets 850 horsepower from a 6.3-liter V12 with no turbos. One would kind of figure that with greater displacement and four friggin' turbos that the Veyron should be capable of more power since the FXX Evoluzione gets more power per liter with no turbos than the Veyron does with turbos. A friend's dad modified a Mustang for a few thousand bucks and it gets 900 horsepower from a 401 in³ (about 6.57 liters) engine and he's just a backyard tinkerer.
I wouldn't hate the thing so hardcore if people didn't worship it so passionately.
By the way, simple car logic comes into play here. The FXX's motor isn't designed to be pushed flatout for miles of testing at 250mph+. The Veyron's motor had to be capable of holding 1000+hp reliably. Your dad's friend's Mustang would need bags of ice too keep it cool at a standing mile.
