You seem to know for a fact that PD had the choice of being able to put this car into the game as a premium model. Do you own one and did you tell them they could take photos of your car?
I know tons of cars that handle like crap and simply aren't fun to drive, but are still fast around a track.
They made the Enzo standard, why not the Veyron?
Camon, people, it was a typo.
The car is premium, there´s nothing to worry about it.
I personally like the Veyron, even more so the Super Sport. I'm not saying it's a beautiful car, because it isn't really, but I was watching a programme the other day about how the Veyron is made and it's quite something, as was watching it race the plane and winning on Top Gear.
In answer to the poll, I voted yes, it should have been a Premium car, but to be honest, I like driving in third person so I can see the car I'm driving, so the Veyron being Standard certainly won't stop me from driving it.
Who the heck is clicking no? What's the downside?
there were others though. '06 & '04 ZO6 corvette for example
Those are not duplicate cars, the 2004 C5 Z06 looks like this:
and the 2006 C6 Z06 looks like this:
I am stoked that they are both Premiums, more Chevys to love.
(and I voted yes)

That's a good question. I personally do not prefer the Veyron, but I still voted yes. I don't see anything negative coming out of converting any car to premium. (Even though I play in third person so it doesn't affect me either way)

there is no way to defend the veyron not being premium. the reason people voted know is because they didn't think about the question or read my description.
No, it's because people interpret things differently. You see it as; automotive icon -> deserves to be premium. In that regard, I agree that the Veyron should be a premium car.
However, I seriously doubt that Polyphony Digital overlooked the Veyron and its qualities and thus kept it standard. Simply put, I don't think they are to blame.
Useless (12 page) thread. All cars should be premium.
And why the hell would you specifically say no, I do not want this particular car to be premium. I cannot believe that nearly 100 of you at this point have specifically articulated that you want sony to give you a lower quality, less detailed, less feature rich car model than what should be in a game of GT5's hype and budget. I absolutely cannot believe that you people are actually saying that. I know there's a lot of fanboys here, but do you think before you type?
That's really, really sad.
American cars are rubbish in my opinion.
LOL, American cars give you the most performance for your buck.

I can see this Forum is full of resident pro's.
Don't judge any car's dynamics until you drive it. I would never buy a C5 or C6 Corvette (interior's are pretty ghastly) but they sure as hell get the job done over the entire performance envelope. The new Mustang GT (5.0 model) is within a few tenths of a second off the pace (around Laguna Seca) of a BMW M3 V8...for less than half the price. It's worth noting, that subjectively, most reviewers rank them fairly close as well. I'm not loyal to any specific continent (I've owned cars from the Japan [rx7, civic si], US[Mustangs] and Europe[Sierra XR4]) but claiming, as most ignorant Top Gear-watching sheep do, that American cars handle badly just isn't true anymore...go drive one and find out.
