    Bugatti 16 C Galibier

    ridiculous

    The Galibier is Bugatti’s long-awaited sedan–and from the specs put out, it’s a class ahead of Rolls’s Ghost. The Galibier’s is equipped with a [COLOR=blue ! important][COLOR=blue ! important]Volkswagen[/COLOR][/COLOR] 8.0 L W-16 motor and a body made of blue composite and silver aluminum. The W-16 is flex-fuel and the [COLOR=blue ! important][COLOR=blue ! important]car[/COLOR][/COLOR] runs on Audi’s permanent all-wheel-drive. The interior decor is akin to the antique saloons of yore, with a blend of wood, metal, and fine leathers.

    It looks hideous.

    Everything from the chrome paint, the interior, the curvy panamera like rear to the 8 tailpipes is just hideous.

    However, they will survive because of their brand equity and the Veyron name.
    It won't be nearly as successful as the Veyron though.
    3/4 of them were sold to the UAE.

    Couldn't have said that better myself if I studied the Veyron for a year.

    I wish the automotive industry was as good earlier so i could have studied it.

    What were you using the Veyron as a study piece for?

    Whoops, had a tired moment and missed half the comment lol.

    It sort of looks like the Aston Martin Lagonda, except AM had the brains to say it was only a concet and will never make it to production.
