Nice set of front lights!
Would be nice to challange Enzo in winter at traffic lights...

Nice to see the 4wd used the way it should be.

nice pics... fun to see the car in snow... ferrari eat your heart out... :hahahehe:

a little note though... is there room for a licence plate in the front? or will the cars that need this have to keep it on with duct tape? :vhmmm:

LOL, kinda funny if you think about it. First they just couldn't get the 1001 hp on the ground and now there testing it on snow :vhmmm:
4 wheel drive or not, 1001 hp on snow is driftfun and crazy like hell.

If those spotlights make it to production, I can't see 251mph being possible... ;)

Not really pretty but I've seen it once in real life and I must say it's really impressive. Unlike the Veyron, which I think is not quite a source of inspiration. It's front looks like a fish with down-syndrome.

At least Ferrari can make a car that we can buy and drive on the road.

Not some PS2 fantasy machine.

-> well the veyron will also be available at the end of 2005 or beginning of 2006.

I think the clou about the Veyron IS that it should personify an ABSOLUT fantasy machine.

...yup, sounds like a Bugatti alright.

It's politically incorrect, it's financially incorrect, it's technically incorrect,... but then again, it's not a Ford Focus, or VW Golf, it's a Bugatti.
I don't think the owners will care that their Bugatti is somewhat illogical.

I have a question...

doesn't a 4wd vehicle need to have 4 wheels/tires of the same size? or am I a little behind on today's technologies? In the old days it was like that, right?

just like to know...

I have no problem in my Passat 4motion (quattro) if i have a different size tire on one wheel. I think that is only the case for Jeeps with "manual" 4wd switching (hi, lo...).

i think even though it is 4wd.. there is still a split as to where more power will go... the ratio.


for instance.. the lambo murcielago has 4wd.. but has a split of like 25% up front and 75% in the rear.

Check out one of my old post. (http://www.rs6.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=5322&highlight=4wd)

I've seen pics of this Bugatti several times but now that I see it in real-life environments, I have to say it looks similar to that Audi concept shown years ago... whose name I've forgotten. Was it... Rosemayer?
