agreed. Although, I can see people with this kind of cash having both cars. One to drive, one to be driven in.

Not feeling it but it looks pretty sick next to the Sang Bleu.

I thought Bugatti was rolling out 3 other prototypes at Frankfurt last week but I haven't heard anything about them or seen any pics. Surely Bugatti can do better than this?

Bugatti will show two remaining protypes this year and/or next year, most possible place is next Geneva auto show.

One seems to be front engined über-GT, second one could be hypercar positioned to the potential customers as a successor to the Veyron, beating it in all dimensions. I really hope that Bugatti will produce more efficient supercar than Veyron, focusing on the power-to-weight ratio.

I can accept the existance of Galibier only as a one from Bugatti models in line with a supercar, not as an only car from Bugatti. That would make my favorite car brand not interesting for me.

Wait wasn't there some report saying they were losing on Each Veryon they sold?

I'm assuming that's not true, or anymore.

There were reports that Bugatti is losing money on every Veyron because the cost of developement and production of this car is higher than the dealer price of the car.

I can only hope that in attempt to make profits Bugatti will not go the absolutely wrong way and will keep producing one of a kind supercars.
