    LOL at 18kg.

    This thing is a pig and they can only find 18kg to reduce?

    Smiley I could loose 40 kg in my R8, just by removing the dampening material (there is a guy in Germany who apparently offers doing that). See what I did here? R8 in the Chiron thread. Smiley Smiley

    Why should I lie? I love the Chiron. Have never driven one, only the Veyron, which was OK but surprisingly less impressive than I thought (this was after I got the R8... Smiley). Great above 200 kph but under? Smiley

    Time to buy a 720S or 488 Pista...I guess. Smiley Smiley 918 is already gone (you lucky bastard Smiley).

    What is a carbon fibre windscreen?  It seems like it would be difficult to see through.

    Re: Bugatti Chiron

    A very close friend has a Chiron and we were guests at various Bugatti receptions.  This is a fabulous car which IMHO is the current pinnacle of performance, luxury, styling and build quality.  In person the car looks much smaller than you would imagine.  My friend, who took delivery last summer (see pics above) uses the car daily.  He has owned a P1, a 918, a Carrera GT and numerous Ferraris, etc.  He says the car is the finest he has ever owned.  

    BTW, over 300 cars have been sold, of the 500 allocated for production.  


    Re: Bugatti Chiron

    How much of a premium does this sport carry? $500K?


    Re: Bugatti Chiron

    Not sure what you mean.  I do know that a Chiron just sold at auction for almost $800,000 over current sale price.

    Smiley Smiley I know, these weight savings are ridiculous. 

    The Huracan is in average around 50-60 kg lighter than my R8 and so far, I haven't encountered a single Huracan to outrun me in my car (straight line), not even from a complete stop. I think I "met" three or four Huracan so far.

    Bugatti Divo Teased Ahead August 24 Reveal, Costs $5.87 Million


    "With this project, the Bugatti team has an opportunity to interpret the  brand DNA in terms of agile, nimble handling in a significantly more  performance-oriented way" - Stephan Winkelmann, President of Bugatti  Automobiles.


     
     "The Divo is named for a Bugatti racing driver from  the brand's past. Albert Divo won the Targa Florio race in the  mountains of Sicily twice in the 1920s. He drove a Bugatti Type 35."



    "We'll see it's debut at Pebble Beach... 40 units and €5.12 million"


    Re: Bugatti Chiron

    They are getting close to a price where they break even. Time to buy VW stock. Lol.

    New €5 million Bugatti Divo hypercar revealed

















    8.0-litre W16 engine with 1500hp and 1600Nm


    seven-speed DSG box and four-wheel drive system


    Divo develop an additional 90kg of downforce than a Chiron.


    The lightweight wheels, carbon fibre intercooler cover, and reduced use of sound insulation allow a 35kg weight saving.


    Bugatti says the Divo will cover 0-100km/h in 2.4 seconds and hit 380km/h flat out.


    The Divo is claimed to be capable of pulling 1.6G of lateral acceleration and is eight seconds faster around the 6.2km Nardo handling track.

    i think it looks fantastic !! I've been watching videos of it in youtube since yesterday and I love it. Now if only I had already bought a Chiron, had an extra 5 million dollars, and they weren't sold out laugh

    Here’s a more affordable Chiron:
