http://www.leftlanenews.com/2006/11/24/porsche-puts-bugattis-future-in-jeopardy/ Trying to buy into the coachbuilding you helped jumpstart. "Porsche has suggested VW transform Bugatti into a coachbuilding business, creating one-off $4,000,000 super cars." Hmm, that number sounds vaguely familiar. Peter Hatch
I dunno about you, but I thought the entire concept of the Veyron is pathetic. Rumor has it that they are spending five million dollars a peice on those, I would expect nothing less than the specs it has. The McLaren F1 was an engineering marvel. 2500 pounds, 627 horsepower. This overweight POS shouldn't even be compared. 1001 horsepower out of a 16 clinder, with 4 turbos? Bah. Your car is amazing. Seeing a one off from Bugatti could be pretty interesting, but I can't stand the Veyrons and all of the noise they have made. Peter Hatch
That $5million figure is how much each Veyron cost to produce including all the R&D involved in creating it.
earnesto...wow! what a great conceptual "J" car rendering. the front view is wicked!!! jim must go to autokraft or lee holman and build this car!!! pcb
For a while I thought it was just me, glad you agree Hope you're enjoying every second with your FXX. Peter Hatch

Another great pix Jim .................thanks ! I saw the enzo model when I was visiting PF .... looks sharp
Spares look insane. If for some reason you feel as though you have to send me something for Christmas, those spares would look nice in my garage That's just the full scale model at the Pininfarina museum, correct? One would hope she'll be home for the holidays. Peter Hatch
Funny how I'm still seeing more and more new things on the P4/5 I hadn't seen before. Pity you didn't show up at the hotel like you planned a while back. I was down in that area last week, and it wouldnt have been pretty neat to be able to see you again, and the P4/5 in the sunlight. So I just got my permit Jim. Think you could set me up with a driving session? How much damage could a kid really do? Peter Hatch
We found a good place for the enamel shields that were originally on my Enzo. We're going to embed them into Jesse's ex Vacarella 208 GTB Turbo... Image Unavailable, Please Login
