Bugatti Chiron

I'm kind of liking the looks of this thing, even though it's the Gangloff concept (hopefully it makes it as the Chiron, or whatever is coming from them next!). https://autos.yahoo.com/news/bugatti...151000433.html

288!?

Holy hell -- that's fast. Well, I'll look forward to maybe seeing the Stig get that round the Top Gear track eventually.

I don't like the looks of the front but the rest of the car is sexy. But, unless I win the lottery, I'll not be spending $2.5M on a car anytime soon.

I'm actually digging the front-end. I really like that design.

Well the rear fender looks like coming off the 370z design.
Very nice curve lines. I know I can afford it in a million lifetime if it thus go to production.

Holy sh1t, 1,500 hp, and a 288 mph! This is way sexier than the Veryon.

With some of these cars claiming crazy high MPH, is there any truth in them? I mean they can barely hit the suggested rated top speed today because of the lack of long straight away.

You'd think that with the price of the car, they'd build you a long enough straightaway too.

Wasn't there a really long airport runway that they used in one of the Fast and Furious movies?

That's still not long enough to reach 288MPH in a car I don't think. And stop safely...
