    Very small crowd last night but easy to see everything

    this was my favorite. craziest car ever sold to public. also the most single purpose car of all time. supposedly 1/4 mile in single digits. comes with a track crate that has these bicycle front tires, single seat, computer chip for high octane gas, and rumor of parachute with front brake delete. and did i say single seat! how insane is this thing. no idea on price but barret jackson 2050 will be selling one for over $1m! love it

    chiron is awesome. what a presence. miles above veyron. i believe the engine is an update of veyrons but not sure about chassis. looks like most expensive car in world

    panamera wagon pretty cool too but doesnt make sense to me. still doesnt come with a normal rear seat bench. only a miniseat with 0 leg room. i dont know why they do this to panas but would sell many more if had regular seat. looks great even at $200k!

    Is the Chiron on the same chassis as the veyron?

    As an owner of a Spyker C8 Spyder, I'm baffled by the comparison to an "old bathtub porsche" but pass me whatever you're drinking. lol. FWIW, I wouldn't trade my C8 for the looks of the new Spyker...but that engine it has, oh my!

    To answer your question, no - it's no longer an Audi V8 - they have plopped a bespoke *naturally aspirated V8 from Koenigsegg* in there. 600 HP! Mated to a 6 speed manual transmission.

    Apologies. No offense meant. Ive always liked spykers and 356 porsches are classics. Just like the new one more
