I can't vote, because all of these vehicles have postives and minus' 
Veyron:
Superb car, but arguably it lacks the involvment of the others
F1
A technological master peice, featured never seen before advancements and surely is fast, but it lacks the handling and braking power of the Carrera GT & Zonda F
Carrera GT:
I really can't find much to complain about this vehicle, however arguably it lacks the exclusivity of the others and compared to the Zonda it's much heavier.
Zonda F:
Like the Carrera GT it has the driving dynamics, and it's a little more exclusive, however the Zonda's in-time acceleration really isn't as better than the Carrera GT despite being much lighter and have much more torque. Slower on the Hockenheim as well.

I chose the McLaren F1.
Why?
1) Introduced in the mid 1990's and it held the record for the world's fastest production car until only recently when the Koenesig CCX and eventually the Veyron beat it.
2) Designed by Gordan Murray to optimize the driving experience and performance. Design followed function, as opposed to the other way around (like the Veyron, where the overall shape of the car was approved BEFORE they got all the engineering issues sorted out). Things like a very light curb weight and a central driving position are some examples. Heck, it could carry 2 other passengers too, which no other supercar can do.
3) Probably the best naturally aspirated engine ever made (by BMW M). It's output was significantly higher than what Murray wanted for the car.
4) The car was so good that it competed in LeMans and won multiple races with very minimal modifications from the standard road car.
Sure, the newer 21st century supercars can outperform it in some areas, but the McLaren F1 was way ahead of its time when it was initially introduced.

Not a very hard poll for me. I instantly voted for the Porsche Carrera GT.
The Bugatti might make headlines with it's 1000+ horsepower engine and performance, but that car is hardly a dedicated supercar like the Porsche Carrera GT. To me, the Bugatti seems like a comfort-oriented luxury supercar, not a sports supercar.

This is easyest poll I'll ever vote...
Carrera GT of course. That is IMO perfection, the best supercar, it is unique, first was suposed to race in LM, it looks very special, it is probably the best street legal car on the track (now, don't mention Radicals and Caterhams etc.).

Piece o' cake - McLaren F1.
For all the reasons that PC Valkyrie said in his sublime post... and also the fact that it is infinitely better looking than any of the other 3 - gorgeous Zonda included. (CGT - as much as I love it - still looks like a low-rider pick-up when the hard-top is fitted and the Veyron, well, you all know that I think: it looks like a fat toad in a two-tone tuxedo.)
The Macca is a thing of exquisite beauty and proportion.
