Bugatti is known for their elegant car design and the Bugatti Galibier is an exquisite example of thier work. The car has clean lines with smooth creases and beautiful two tone body work. The grill is a classic right out of the 30's and shows that this car is really something special, proudly sporting the red badge. The Bugatti is absolutely gorgeous its hood opens like gull wings and the split window takes its inspiration from past Bugatti's and all together completes the car. No matter how you look at the Galibier, all of its proportions are right, it is easily a car that can sit outside the best restaurant in town and steal the hearts of those passing by. The long curves tingle your senses, making it is a proper luxury car. It is a work of art.
As you look at the Galibier you see four seats, making it a sedan but don't be fooled, it is going to be a proper full on super car. It will have the engineering brilliance of its older brother the Bugatti Veyron and share the same eight-litre w-16 power plant but toned down to 987 bhp (due to the engine being at the front instead of mid engined). The chassis and body are made of carbon fiber but the wings and doors are polished aluminum, which looks stunning. It has a nine layer paint job that subtly accents the carbon fiber underneath. The only problem with the design are 8 cockish exhaust pipes that stick out the back. I find the pipes wreck the flow of the car and makes it childish and a bit of a laugh when I would expect a luxury car like this to be sophisticated and balanced. It should be on sale by 2013 and the Brits expect it to have a 900,000 pound price tag. It is truly the work of a gentlemen with a heavy foot. I am completely sold.
