    Are the first two photos of real cars, or Photoshops?

    Great photoshops guys! But a shame really.....
    It really strikes me that noone ever makes something that actually pays hommage to the "real" Bugattis!!! Why does it always have to be something that looks modern and futuristic, but bears no resemblance whatsoever to the proud and timeless design elegance and tradition of Bugatti!!!! Why????? Does noone know what Bugattis were and are all about anymore???

    The first one looks like a PIMP car.

    Looks like the car has an Arabic license plate, but unless they are using London Taxi Cabs in the Middle East, that looks like England to me.

    The Bugatti may have an arabian numer plate, but the place is definitely british.

    EDIT: Tifosiron was faster!

    You can also see a red double-decker bus!

    Unless someone made a sedan, I really doubt that the original Bugatti designs can be properly translated. Chrysler did a take of a Bugatti some years ago that I really liked, but I do not know how one would go about creating a modern Bugatti with design elements of the past.

    You do excellent renderings, have you thought about coming up with your own design?

    How do you make these incredible cars into a modern looking automobile:

    Hi Ron,

    Thanks for the compliment!!! :)

    I already did a design sketch of a modern day "LMP inspired Bugatti" with a lot of styling elements from the Bugattis of the past! It should be found elsewhere in "Showroom"!
    I will develop a much more detailed drawing later on, since right now I am too busy with other drawings!!!

    I did see the LMP car, but how about a street car. A coupe or sedan. :}

    What if you could stretch the wheel base. Don't think LMP think elegance.

    Think "Nouveau Atlantique" but mid engined can it be done???

    The car belongs to the ruler of AJMAN's son and that is the Dorchester in Park Lane London.

    Majman???????

    The purple and silver is UGLY, and the black and orange car is only appropraite for holloween.

    Drawings of the 118 4-door sedan that was planned and of which minaitures have been made, are actually rather decent looking. How about a more sporty version of that as a 2 door sedan?

    Both of those pictures are absolutely amazing and a great PS job. To be honest i love the first one! Out of interest, is that the real colours on the first one?

    That first one with the purple paint and Asanti wheels....not what I would do but I would drive it. I get tired of some people complaining you can't mod this car or you can't mod that car. Outside of a Pontiac Aztek or Ford Taurus, any car looks better modded, even an exotic...as long as it isn't overdone.
