Yeah.. I think the list I found is a bit old. Even though it had a Feb 2006 date. That list you posted is more upto date.

I love the Veyron, but I still much prefer 70s and 80s supercars like the Lancia Stratos HF and my personal all time favourite, the Lamborghini Countach QV5000.

watched a 5th gear special which featured the zonda. took 30 mins to get out of a car park. they spent that long trying to find enough wooden planks to make a ramp, as it couldn't go over the gutter. with aust roads (particularly south aust) being what they are, I think I will stick with the xb.
