Why the 2018+ base wheels are smoking hot

Resisted in saying this, but....

My wife’s also rather clueless about cars, yet without waver, she picked the opposite for our first Z, and even more adamantly during our second Z purchase. In her words, “the base wheels are too vanilla, doesn’t match the car’s curve, too sunken, like having nice *** but anemic legs when looking from behind”.

And I honestly think Veyrons are really ugly, “bug” ugly.

Who cares....to Gordon Murray, everything is ugly except for F1 and T50

Your first Z would have had the older versions of the wheels on sale at that time though right?

Her opinion remains the same through all years.

We purchased our second one in 19, same words from her.

Interesting. I just asked my wife now while she's eating breakfast why she liked these again more than the sport Rays. She said the other ones "look like Civic wheels". She said "these looked more sporty, they have a beautiful shine that you wouldn't expect from something so dark and they look like Lamborghini wheels"

To be honest, I think the new Civic rims give a lot more of the same style impression that then Bugatti - though in the end, they're all quite different.

I don't honestly see any similarity in the Bugatti - they....are both round...with spokes....
