    Re: Bugatti Chiron

    I take it they chopped off the entire rear end design to save weight? WTF?

    Interior swoosh detail is kind of neat, but the really screwed up the rear.

    Re: Bugatti Chiron

    Looks better in black, but the contrast in those pictures is pretty unrealistic.

    I wonder how much lighter it is.


    Re: Bugatti Chiron

    I think it looks fantastic. Specially some of the smaller details they put in. The performance is pretty impressive as well.

    Re: Bugatti Chiron

    Looks better in some of those real life pics.

    This might not make much sense saying this, but this is what the new R8 should have been. These would have been perfect lines for it:

    Re: Bugatti Chiron

    Wow, love it! Interesting they limited the top speed.. Wonder if this was tyre-related or more about the driver..

    Re: Bugatti Chiron

    Happy they built it yet again, looks impressive too but I have my doubts about that shoulder line over the rear haunches, it makes it look like two separate cars/designs. I would have preferred a more rounded rear as seen on the Veyron.

    Guess we have differing viewpoints.  

    For once I think @noone1 is right Smiley. The Veyron has never commanded a premium.

    Well, it took them 10 years to sell 450 cars, and, clearly, they weren't at peak production all that time (peak of 81 cars in 2007), so demand wasn't that strong, and, probably, pretty much anyone who actually wanted a Veyron, and was able to afford one, was able to get one, which wouldn't exactly lead to anyone paying a premium for a used one. 

    True, but that doesn't rule out the possibility of some affluent guy spontaneously having an itch which he wants scratched immediately, so he'll pay a high premium to buy a tasty used car on the spot rather than wait months for his own spec to be delivered from the factory.
    When you have more money than you know what  to do with, instant gratification is the only kind you want to know about.   Smiley

     I will be at the press debut tomorrow and will post impressions and pics. I know at least one person who has already put down a deposit on this fantastic machine. Not to everyone's taste, but certainly a fabulous automotive creation.

    Re: Bugatti Chiron

    I like it overall.  The steering wheel looks lifted straight out of an R8 but made of nicer materials.  

    Re the "chopped off" back end.  I believe this is for aerodynamics.  Evacuate hot air from the engine bay and reduce lift/drag.  


    Re: Bugatti Chiron

    It even has a split rear window ala 63 vette. Very bad ass design. It is all over the "up yours" mindset.

    13.6 seconds seems to be the official number according to the articles I've read.

    Re: Bugatti Chiron

    This Bugatti is truly astonishing. Also, you can see Porsche hand there - the rear subframe is carbon now. There are only 3 cars in the world that use carbon rear subframe - CGT, 918 and now Chiron.

    The only thing is missed - hybrid.

    P.S. Koenigsegg says about 10.9 sec 0-186 for Regera, but it is something out of this world. Close to LMP1 and F1 digit. Also LMP1 and F1 accelerates from 0 to 120 in less than 4 seconds, Regera in 6.6. How is it possible to accelerate from 120 to 186 in 4.3 seconds?!?!?!
