    While I doubt their return to LeMans, I would love to see it happen. I believe the Vision GT is suppose to debut their new design language. There have been many Chiron renderings based on the Vision GT, these are some.. And if the Chiron looks anything like them I think it will be a big hit! [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    WOW!!!! The rear end shot is the business. If this is anything like the production road car Chiron will return Bugatti back to the thrown over the current big 3. I'm sure the Veyrons muted exhaust note will also be addressed in the new car with a valved exhaust system of sorts.

    Yes, I believe that Bugatti has addressed the issue of the overly muted exhaust with the Vision GT concept in Frankfurt listen to this video; http://youtu.be/2g9szk98rvk

    It is very exciting to finally hear 16 cylinders raw and uncut. Thanks for the link.

    It's going to be a wonderful machine.

    Glad I made the move and I'm in.

    And will get the SS later.

    Cant say much.

    And i guess it's early for the SS so that's why i picked the regular now.

    Guessing there will be.

    When I got my EB110 they did a very amazing job you can get the GT or the SS or even mix if you like GTbnice interior andd a powerful engine etc.

    It just cam at the wrong time drove better than any ferrari or Lamborghini. Better built quality and it shifted like a 959 no need to pump some iron before going out.

    To date it shift even better than my Pagani Zonda CS and i get better support too from the team way , ote than Pagani lol.

    The rumors keep insisting that there are 2 versions of the Chiron; one without a hybrid system and another with a hybrid system

    I understand your position and there is absolutely no problem. It is indeed very soon to talk about an SS version but the concept which i saw at the 2015 Frankfurt show and the Chiron will have an influence from it, it is already an extreme design..even if it's only a concept. I can't imagine the SS version wilder than that!

    Newest rendering, this one obviously done by TopSpeed. I think it looks awesome, not that I know anything about aesthetics [​IMG]

    People who already see the car says the vision gt is the chiron.
    The side profile is exactly the same.
    The rear too without the massive wing.
    The only difference is a less extreme front.

    I recently saw this YouTube video done by the owner of the Pagani Huayra 730S and he states that his friends have seen the car, this is what he had to share;
    1. The Chiron is the Vision GT except without the racing aero
    2. It will have 4 turbos, 2 small, one medium and one large to deal with the issue of lag
    3. The cost of service/maintenance is half of what the Veyron was.
    4. There will be no longer a coupe and convertible, they are one and the same.. Which I didn't understand.
    5. It will be 50kg lighter than the SuperSports and have 1500hp
    6. It will cost €2.2 million 'base' price
    7. Production numbers are 400 units but can be changed
    8. There are 10 examples running around right now

    * I am not sure how reliable his info is so take it with a grain of salt.

    Thanks a lot!
    Seems the front will be a lot softer comparing with vision gt.
    I also doubt the lateral window have same size related to frankfurt concept, too narrow.

    This is exciting to know one will eventually be in SC. So many fantastic roads especially upstate going in NC/GA state parks. I'm guessing your Zonda is not located here, I have yet to experience one of my all time favorite cars in real life.

    I wish I could have joined your guys for the Italian car meet last weekend but the torrential rain in Columbia kept me home. I'll be roaming around the state this weekend before I go on an extended business trip so maybe i'll run into one of your beauties.

    Please keep me/us posted on the Chiron. I would love to share the experience if you decide to make a written or video blog for memories.

    Looking at the crash test mule, looks like the car has a removable central roof ?

    Maybe that is what Alejandro Salomon meant in his video when he said that the coupe and the convertible are one and the same like the Koenigseggs are.

    Following the case of diesel gate, the Volkswagen group will perhaps forced to halt some projects (the Chiron in first) or even to sell some brands of the group and Bugatti would be the first on the list.

    Pretty certain the car will at best get delayed if not cancelled totally, the pain has yet to really begin at VW.
