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!).

Reported quad-turbo'd W16, 1,500HP, and a 288MPH top speed. :drool:

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. :)

WAY better then the Veyron!

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.

Looks better than the Veyron.

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...

Jordo! 12-16-2014 02:29 PM

Heh. A 2.5 million dollar, 1500 hp car is a fantasy monster :icon17:

I believe VW has a really long straight on a test track in Europe that James May used to get the Veyron up to around 253 MPH on an episode of Top Gear. Other than that, I agree. Not sure where else you'd have enough runway to get up to 288 and stop.

It's actually this course: Ehra-Lessien - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ehra-Lessien has an oval with a 5 mile-long straight.

Bugatti Chiron prototype spies at LAX Los Angeles Airport

http://www.dpccars.com/blog/wp-conte...-1-605x325.jpg

From the article:
The attached photos were taken at Los Angeles LAX airport and unfortunately there’s not much to talk about in terms of how it will look like as the vehicles were covered up pretty good, but at least we can see that one of the vehicles has the rear wing extended.
